14 CFR Part 39 

[Docket No. FAA–2010–1055; Directorate

Airworthiness Directives; Austro 

Engine GmbH Model E4 Diesel Piston 

Engines 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: We are superseding an 

existing airworthiness directive (AD) for 

the products listed above. That AD 

currently requires frequent inspections 

of the fuel pressure supply for excessive 

oscillations to determine if highpressure (HP) fuel pumps have been 

exposed to damaging pressure 

oscillations. Pumps that have been 

exposed require replacement before 

further flight. This new AD requires the 

initial and repetitive inspections of AD 

2010–23–09, but also requires installing 

HP fuel pump part number (P/N) E4A– 

30–200–000, as mandatory terminating 

action to the repetitive inspections. We 

are issuing this AD to prevent engine 

power loss or in-flight shutdown, which 

could result in loss of control of the 

airplane. 

DATES: This AD is effective October 6, 

2011. 

The Director of the Federal Register 

approved the incorporation by reference 

of a certain publication listed in this AD 

as of November 22, 2010 (75 FR 68179, 

November 5, 2010).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Discussion 

We issued a notice of proposed 

rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR 

part 39 to supersede AD 2010–23–09, 

Amendment 39–16498 (75 FR 68179, 

November 5, 2010). That AD applies to 

the specified products. The NPRM 

published in the Federal Register on 

June 9, 2011 (76 FR 33660). That NPRM 

proposed to continue to require frequent 

inspections of the fuel pressure supply 

for excessive oscillations to determine if 

high-pressure fuel pumps have been 

exposed to damaging pressure 

oscillations. That NPRM also proposed 

to require installing HP fuel pump P/N 

E4A–30–200–000, as mandatory 

terminating action to the repetitive 

inspections. 

Comments 

We gave the public the opportunity to 

participate in developing this AD. We 

received no comments on the NPRM. 

Conclusion 

We reviewed the relevant data and 

determined that air safety and the 

public interest require adopting the AD 

as proposed. 

Costs of Compliance 

Based on the service information, we 

estimate that this AD will affect about 

32 model E4 diesel piston engines, 

installed on airplanes of US registry. We 

also estimate that it will take about 1 

work-hour per engine to perform one 

inspection, and about 2 work-hours per 

engine to replace the HP fuel pump. The 

average labor rate is $85 per work-hour. 

Required parts will cost about $2,325 

per product. Based on these figures, we 

estimate the cost of the AD on U.S. 

operators to be $82,560. 

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 

We have determined that 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), 


wreier-aviles on DSKDVH8Z91PROD with RULES
54374 Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 170 / Thursday, September 1, 2011 / Rules and Regulations 

(3) Will not affect intrastate aviation 

in Alaska, and 

(4) Will not have a significant 

economic impact, positive or negative, 

on a substantial number of small entities 

under the criteria of the Regulatory 

Flexibility Act.

Adoption of the Amendment 

Accordingly, under the authority 

delegated to me by the Administrator, 

the FAA amends 14 CFR part 39 as 

follows: 

PART 39—AIRWORTHINESS 

DIRECTIVES 

■ 1. The authority citation for part 39 

continues to read as follows: 

Authority: 49 U.S.C. 106(g), 40113, 44701. 

§ 39.13 [Amended] 

■ 2. The FAA amends § 39.13 by 

removing airworthiness directive (AD) 

2010–23–09, Amendment 39–16498 (75 

FR 68179, November 5, 2010), and 

adding the following new AD: 

2011–18–19 Austro Engine GmbH: 

Amendment 39–16801; Docket No. 

FAA–2010–1055; Directorate Identifier 

2010–NE–35–AD. 

Effective Date 

(a) This airworthiness directive (AD) is 

effective October 6, 2011. 

Affected ADs 

(b) This AD supersedes AD 2010–23–09, 

Amendment 39–16498 (75 FR 68179, 

November 5, 2010). 

Applicability 

(c) This AD applies to Austro Engine 

GmbH model E4 diesel piston engines, with 

high-pressure (HP) fuel pump, part number 

(P/N) E4A–30–100–000, installed. 

Unsafe Condition 

(d) This AD was prompted by Austro 

Engine GmbH introducing a new P/N fuel 

pump as mandatory terminating action to the 

repetitive inspections required by AD 2010– 

23–09, Amendment 39–16498 (75 FR 68179, 

November 5, 2010). We are issuing this AD 

to prevent engine power loss or in-flight 

shutdown, which could result in loss of 

control of the airplane. 

Compliance 

(e) Comply with this AD within the 

compliance times specified, unless already 

done. 

(1) Inspect the fuel pressure supply for 

excessive oscillations using the inspection 

schedule in Table 1 of this AD. 

TABLE 1—INSPECTION SCHEDULE

Accumulated Time-Since-New (TSN) or Time Since Last Inspection (TSLI): Compliance time: 

45 flight hours or more ............................................................................................... Within 10 flight hours after the effective date of this AD. 

Fewer than 45 flight hours ......................................................................................... Before 55 flight hours TSN or TSLI. 

Repetitive inspections ................................................................................................. Before 55 flight hours TSLI. 

(2) Use Austro Engine GmbH Work 

Instruction No. WI–MSB–E4–009, dated 

October 7, 2010, to do the inspections. 

(3) Replace the HP fuel pump before 

further flight with a new HP fuel pump, 

P/N E4A–30–200–000, if the oscillations 

exceed 300mV (750hPa). 

Mandatory Terminating Action 

(4) As mandatory terminating action to the 

repetitive inspections, within 120 flight 

hours after the effective date of this AD, 

replace the HP fuel pump, P/N E4A–30–100– 

000, with a HP fuel pump, P/N E4A–30–200– 

000. Austro Engine GmbH Mandatory Service 

Bulletin (MSB) No. MSB–E4–009/2 contains 

guidance on replacing the HP fuel pump. 

Installation Prohibitions 

(f) After the effective date of this AD, do 

not install any HP fuel pump P/N E4A–30– 

100–000, onto any engine. 

(g) After the effective date of this AD, do 

not install any engine equipped with HP fuel 

pump P/N E4A–30–100–000, onto any 

airplane. 

Alternative Methods of Compliance 

(AMOCs) 

(h) The Manager, Engine Certification 

Office, FAA, has the authority to approve 

AMOCs for this AD, if requested using the 

procedures found in 14 CFR 39.19.
