This AD requires assuring the airspeed 

indicator(s) and/or airspeed limitations 

placard(s) have the correct minimum 

control speed (VMC) markings for the 

STCs installed. This AD was prompted 

by information that suggests the affected 

airplane models with a certain STC 

installed may not have the appropriate 

VMC markings on the airspeed 

indicator(s). We are issuing this AD to 

correct the unsafe condition on these 

products.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Discussion 

On a Hawker Beechcraft Corporation 

Model 58 airplane, we found that STC 

SA1762SO (installation of vortex 

generators) and STC SA4016NM 

(Foxstar Baron modification that 

included installation of winglets and 

different engines and propellers) were 

installed. The airplane flight manual 

(AFM) supplements for both STCs 

contained different VMC limitations. The 

airspeed indicator was marked in 

accordance with STC SA4016NM when 

it should have been marked with the 

higher VMC specified for STC 

SA1762SO. 

Other affected Hawker Beechcraft 

Corporation airplanes with STC 

SA1762SO installed may have other 

STCs or modifications installed that 

affect VMC. Those modified airplanes 

may not have VMC accurately marked on 

the airspeed indicator(s). Whenever an 

STC is installed, the relationship 

between the STC being installed and 

other STCs already installed on the 

airplane should be properly analyzed to 

assure there are no adverse effects on 

the airworthiness of the modified 

airplane. 

The installation of multiple STCs 

affecting VMC on the same airplane 

could result in conflicting operating 

limitations. The airspeed limitations 

placard(s) and the airspeed indicator(s) 

must be correctly marked with the 

highest VMC limitation stated in the 

AFM, AFM supplements, and pilot 

operating handbooks (POHs), unless 

FAA-approved testing has been done to 

determine the correct VMC and a new 

AFM supplement has replaced the 

conflicting supplements. Therefore, the 

VMC limitation stated in the AFM, AFM 

supplements, and POHs must be 

reviewed for each airplane to assure the 

highest VMC limitation is identified. 

Hawker Beechcraft Corporation 

Models 95–C55, D55, E55, 58, and 58A 

airplanes may also have STC SA1762SO 

installed and be subject to this unsafe 

condition. This condition, if not 


tkelley on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with RULES
Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 250 / Thursday, December 29, 2011 / Rules and Regulations 81791 

corrected, could result in sudden and 

unexpected loss of aircraft control 

during single engine operation. 

FAA’s Determination 

We are issuing this AD because we 

evaluated all the relevant information 

and determined the unsafe condition 

described previously is likely to exist or 

develop in other products of the same 

type design. 

The FAA is still evaluating the subject 

matter presented in this AD. While the 

unsafe condition identified in this AD is 

addressed on the airplanes affected by 

this AD, our evaluation may lead us to 

consider additional rulemaking on this 

subject on these and/or other aircraft. 

AD Requirements 

On all Hawker Beechcraft Corporation 

Models 95–C55, D55, E55, 58, and 58A 

airplanes equipped with STC 

SA1762SO, this AD requires inspecting 

all installed placards, POHs, and 

airplane flight manual supplements to 

identify other modifications that may 

affect VMC and accurately marking the 

VMC on the airspeed indicator(s) or 

installing a placard(s) specifying the 

correct VMC. This AD may also require 

establishing a new one-engineinoperative speed (VSSE) if the existing 

VSSE is inaccurate. 

FAA’s Justification and Determination 

of the Effective Date 

An unsafe condition exists that 

requires the immediate adoption of this 

AD. The FAA has found that the risk to 

the flying public justifies waiving notice 

and comment prior to adoption of this 

rule because incorrect VMC markings on 

the airspeed indicator(s) could result in 

sudden and unexpected loss of aircraft 

control in the event of an actual engine 

failure or simulated engine failure 

during a training flight. Therefore, we 

find that notice and opportunity for 

prior public comment are impracticable 

and that good cause exists for making 

this amendment effective in less than 30 

days. 

Comments Invited 

This AD is a final rule that involves 

requirements affecting flight safety and 

was not preceded by notice and an 

opportunity for public comment. 

However, we invite you to send any 

written data, views, or arguments about 

this AD. Send your comments to an 

address listed under the ADDRESSES

section. Include the docket number 

FAA–2011–1420 and Directorate 

Identifier 2011–CE–035–AD at the 

beginning of your comments. We 

specifically invite comments on the 

overall regulatory, economic, 

environmental, and energy aspects of 

this AD. We will consider all comments 

received by the closing date and may 

amend this AD because of those 

comments. 

We will post all comments we 

receive, without change, to http:// 

www.regulations.gov, including any 

personal information you provide. We 

will also post a report summarizing each 

substantive verbal contact we receive 

about this AD. 

Costs of Compliance 

We estimate that this AD affects 400 

airplanes of U.S. registry. 

We estimate the following costs to 

comply with this AD: 

ESTIMATED COSTS

Action Labor cost Parts cost Cost per 

product 

Cost on U.S. 

operators 

Inspection of AFM supplements for installation of other STCs that may affect 

VMC.

1 work-hour × $85 per hour = $85 ........... Not applicable ........... $85 $34,000 

We estimate the following costs to do 

any necessary placards and/or airspeed 

indicator remarking that will be 

required based on the results of the 

inspection. We have no way of 

determining the number of aircraft that 

might need these actions: 

ON-CONDITION COSTS

Action Labor cost Parts cost Cost per 

product 

Installation of placard(s) for appropriate VMC ............... 1 work-hour × $85 per hour = $85 ............................... $10 $95 

Remarking of the airspeed indicator(s) and/or airspeed limitations placard(s).$2 work-hours × $85 per hour = $170 ......................... 200 370 

Authority for This Rulemaking 

Title 49 of the United States Code 

specifies the FAA’s authority to issue 

rules on aviation safety. Subtitle I, 

section 106, describes the authority of 

the FAA Administrator. ‘‘Subtitle VII: 

Aviation Programs’’ describes in more 

detail the scope of the Agency’s 

authority. 

We are issuing this rulemaking under 

the authority described in Subtitle VII, 

Part A, Subpart III, Section 44701: 

‘‘General requirements.’’ Under that 

section, Congress charges the FAA with 

promoting safe flight of civil aircraft in 

air commerce by prescribing regulations 

for practices, methods, and procedures 

the Administrator finds necessary for 

safety in air commerce. This regulation 

is within the scope of that authority 

because it addresses an unsafe condition 

that is likely to exist or develop on 

products identified in this rulemaking 

action. 

Regulatory Findings 

This AD will not have federalism 

implications under Executive Order 

13132. This AD will not have a 

substantial direct effect on the States, on 

the relationship between the national 

government and the States, or on the 

distribution of power and 

responsibilities among the various 

levels of government. 

For the reasons discussed above, I 

certify that this AD: 

(1) Is not a ‘‘significant regulatory 

action’’ under Executive Order 12866, 

(2) Is not a ‘‘significant rule’’ under 

DOT Regulatory Policies and Procedures 

(44 FR 11034, February 26, 1979), 

(3) Will not affect intrastate aviation 

in Alaska, and 

(4) Will not have a significant 

economic impact, positive or negative,

(e) Unsafe Condition 

This AD was prompted by information that 

suggests the affected airplane models with 

STC SA1762SO installed may not have the 

correct minimum control speed (VMC) 

markings on the airspeed indicator(s). We are 

issuing this AD to correct the unsafe 

condition on these products. 

(f) Compliance 

Comply with this AD within the 

compliance times specified, unless already 

done. 

(g) VMC Markings 

Within the next 10 hours time-in-service 

(TIS) after December 29, 2011 (the effective 

date of this AD) or within the next 30 days 

after December 29, 2011 (the effective date of 

this AD), whichever occurs first, inspect all 

added placards, pilot operating handbooks 

(POHs), and airplane flight manual (AFM) 

supplements to identify modifications other 

than STC SA1762SO that state a VMC

limitation. 

Note 2: The abbreviation VMC for minimum 

control speed used in this AD may be 

identified in the AFM and AFM supplements 

as VMCA. 

(1) If no modifications that state a VMC

limitation are identified, other than STC 

SA1762SO, within the compliance time 

specified in paragraph (g) of this AD, inspect 

the VMC marking on the airspeed indicator(s) 

and airspeed limitations placard(s) to assure 

they are marked accurately to match the VMC

specified in the AFM supplement associated 

with STC SA1762SO. 

(i) If the VMC marking on both the airspeed 

indicator(s) and the airspeed limitations 

placard(s) do match the VMC specified in the 

AFM supplement associated with STC 

SA1762SO, paragraph (g)(1)(iii) is the only 

other action required by this AD. 

(ii) If either the VMC marking on the 

airspeed indicator(s) or the airspeed 

limitations placard(s) do not match the VMC

specified in the AFM supplement associated 

with STC SA1762SO, before further flight 

after the inspection required in paragraph 

(g)(1) of this AD, install a temporary 

placard(s) for the airspeed indicator(s) and/ 

or install a temporary placard(s) over the VMC

marked on the airspeed limitations 

placard(s), as applicable. 

(A) The VMC as specified on both the 

airspeed indicator(s) or temporary placard(s) 

and the airspeed limitations placard(s) must 

match the VMC specified in the AFM 

supplement associated with STC SA1762SO, 

following the instructions in paragraph (h) of 

this AD. 

(B) Before further flight after the inspection 

required in paragraph (g)(1) of this AD, you 

may have the airspeed indicator(s) 

permanently remarked and/or permanently 

remark the airspeed limitations placard(s) as 

required in paragraph (i), Remarking the 

Airspeed Indicator(s) and the Airspeed 

Limitations Placard(s), of this AD in lieu of 

installing the temporary placard(s) for the 

airspeed indicator(s) and/or installing the 

temporary placard(s) for the VMC on the 

airspeed limitations placard(s). 

(iii) If the AFM lists an intentional oneengine-inoperative speed (VSSE), you must 

use the formula below in paragraph 

(g)(1)(iii)(A) of this AD and establish a new 

VSSE, unless the existing VSSE is equal to or 

greater than the VSSE determined by the 

formula. If the AFM does not state a VSSE, 

skip forward to the actions required in 

paragraph (h) of this AD, Temporary 

Airspeed Indicator(s) and Temporary 

Airspeed Limitations Placard(s) Installation. 

(A) New VSSE = ((VSSE from the AFM)/(VMC

from the AFM)) × (VMC from the AFM 

supplement associated with STC SA1762SO). 

(B) If necessary, insert the following 

language for the new VSSE into the AFM in 

all areas that refer to VSSE: ‘‘The revised VSSE

is llll in accordance with AD 2011–27– 

04.’’ 

(2) If modifications that state a VMC

limitation are identified, in addition to STC 

SA1762SO, within the compliance time 

specified in paragraph (g) of this AD, inspect 

the VMC marking on the airspeed indicator(s) 

and the airspeed limitations placard(s) to 

assure they match and are marked accurately 

with the highest VMC specified in either the 

AFM or any placards and/or AFM 

supplements associated with any 

modifications that state a VMC limitation. 

(i) If the VMC marking on the airspeed 

indicator(s) and the airspeed limitations 

placard(s) match and are marked with the 

highest VMC specified in either the AFM or 

any placards and/or AFM supplements 

associated with any modifications that affect 

VMC, skip forward to the actions required in 

paragraph (g)(2)(iii) of this AD. 

(ii) If the VMC marking on the airspeed 

indicator(s) and the airspeed limitations 

placard(s) do not match and/or are not 

marked with the highest VMC specified in 

either the AFM or any placards and/or AFM 

supplements associated with any 

modifications that affect VMC, before further 

flight after the inspection required in 

paragraph (g)(2), install a temporary 

placard(s) for the airspeed indicator(s) and/ 

or install a temporary placard(s) over the VMC

marked on the airspeed limitations 

placard(s), as applicable. 

(A) The VMC on both the airspeed 

indicator(s) and the airspeed limitations 

placard(s) must match the highest VMC

specified in either the AFM or any placards 

and/or AFM supplements associated with 

any modifications that affect VMC, following 

the instructions in paragraph (h) of this AD, 

Temporary Airspeed Indicator(s) and 

Temporary Airspeed Limitations Placard(s) 

Installation. 

(B) Before further flight after the inspection 

required in paragraph (g)(2), you may have 

the airspeed indicator(s) permanently 

remarked and/or permanently remark the 

airspeed limitations placard(s) as required in 

paragraph (i), Remarking the Airspeed 

Indicator(s) and the Airspeed Limitations 

Placard(s), of this AD in lieu of installing the 

temporary placard(s) for the airspeed 

indicator(s) and/or installing the temporary 

placard(s) for the VMC on the airspeed 

limitations placard(s). 

(iii) If the AFM or any of the AFM 

supplements that state a VMC limitation also 

list a VSSE, you must use the formula below 

in paragraph (g)(2)(iii)(A) of this AD and 

establish a new VSSE, unless the existing VSSE

is equal to or greater than the VSSE

determined by the formula. If the AFM or any 

of the AFM supplements do not list a VSSE, 

skip forward to the actions required in 

paragraph (h) of this AD, Temporary 

Airspeed Indicator(s) and Temporary 

Airspeed Limitations Placard(s) Installation. 

(A) New VSSE = ((VSSE from the AFM)/(VMC

from the AFM)) × (VMC as determined by 

paragraph (g)(2) of this AD). 

(B) If the VSSE listed in the AFM or any 

AFM supplements that state a VMC limitation 

is higher than the VSSE determined by 

paragraph (g)(2)(iii)(A) of this AD above, then 

the highest of all these values shall be the 

new VSSE. 

(C) If necessary, insert the following 

language for the new VSSE into the AFM in 

all areas that refer to VSSE, including AFM 


tkelley on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with RULES
Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 250 / Thursday, December 29, 2011 / Rules and Regulations 81793

in accordance with AD 2011–27–04.’’ 

(h) Temporary Airspeed Indicator(s) and 

Temporary Airspeed Limitations Placard(s) 

Installation 

(1) If required by the actions in paragraph 

(g)(1)(ii) or (g)(2)(ii) of this AD, fabricate a 

temporary placard(s) (using at least 1⁄8-inch 

black letters on a white background) with the 

following words and install the placard(s) on 

the instrument panel in the nearest practical 

location to the airspeed indicator(s) within 

the pilot’s clear view: ‘‘VMC = llll .’’ 

Insert in the blank space the VMC as 

determined by the actions required in either 

paragraph (g)(1)(ii) or (g)(2)(ii) of this AD. 

(2) If the VMC on the existing airspeed 

limitations placard is different than 

determined in either paragraph (g)(1)(ii) or 

(g)(2)(ii) of this AD, fabricate a temporary 

placard(s) (using letter sizes similar to those 

on the existing airspeed limitations 

placard(s) with black letters on a white 

background) with the VMC as determined by 

the actions required in either paragraph 

(g)(1)(ii) or (g)(2)(ii) of this AD and install the 

placard(s) over the VMC listed on the existing 

airspeed limitations placard(s). 

Note 3: You may use FAA Advisory 

Circular 43.13–2B for additional guidance on 

installing placards. You can find Advisory 

Circular 43.13–2B at http://rgl.faa.gov/ 

Regulatory_and_Guidance_Library/ 

rgAdvisoryCircular.nsf. 

(i) Remarking the Airspeed Indicator(s) and 

the Airspeed Limitations Placard(s) 

(1) If during either of the inspections 

required in paragraphs (g)(1) or (g)(2) of this 

AD, the VMC marking on the airspeed 

indicator(s) was not marked accurately and 

required immediate temporary corrective 

action (placard), within the next 12 months 

after December 29, 2011 (the effective date of 

this AD), permanently remark the airspeed 

indicator(s) with the correct VMC marking. 

This instrument modification must be done 

by an appropriately rated repair facility. 

(i) After the airspeed indicator(s) has been 

remarked, mark the airspeed indicator(s) 

instrument casing to clearly indicate that the 

markings comply with this AD stating 

‘‘Modified in compliance with AD 2011–27– 

04, refer to AD 2011–27–04 for replacement 

part criteria.’’ 

(ii) Any replacement airspeed indicator 

must also meet the VMC marking 

requirements in paragraphs (i)(1) and (i)(1)(i) 

of this AD. 

(iii) After the VMC has been remarked as 

required in this paragraph, you may remove 

the temporary placard(s) installed as required 

in paragraph (g)(1)(ii) and (g)(2)(ii) of this 

AD. 

(iv) Instead of installing the temporary 

placard(s) after either of the inspections 

when it is determined the VMC marking on 

the airspeed indicator(s) is not marked 

accurately, you may permanently remark the 

airspeed indicator(s) as required in paragraph 

(i), Remarking the Airspeed Indicator(s) and 

the Airspeed Limitations Placard(s), of this 

AD provided it is done before further flight. 

(2) If during either of the inspections 

required in paragraphs (g)(1) or (g)(2) of this 

AD, the VMC marking on the airspeed 

limitations placard(s) was not marked 

accurately and required immediate 

temporary corrective action (placard), within 

the next 12 months after December 29, 2011 

(the effective date of this AD), permanently 

remark or remake the airspeed limitations 

placard(s) with the correct VMC marking.

Net Worth Standard for Accredited 

Investors 

AGENCY: Securities and Exchange 

Commission. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: We are adopting amendments 

to the accredited investor standards in 

our rules under the Securities Act of 

1933 to implement the requirements of 

the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and 

Consumer Protection Act. The Act 

requires the definitions of ‘‘accredited 

investor’’ in our Securities Act rules to 

exclude the value of a person’s primary 

residence for purposes of determining 

whether the person qualifies as an 

‘‘accredited investor’’ on the basis of 

having a net worth in excess of $1 

million. This change to the net worth 

standard was effective upon enactment 

by operation of the Dodd-Frank Act, but 

it also requires us to revise our current 

Securities Act rules to conform to the 

new standard. We also are adopting 

technical amendments to Form D and a 

number of our rules to conform them to
