Airworthiness Directives; Airbus 

Defense and Space S.A. (Formerly 

Known as Construcciones 

Aeronauticas, S.A.) Airplanes 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: The FAA is adopting a new 

airworthiness directive (AD) for certain 

Airbus Defense and Space S.A. Model 

C–212–CB, C–212–CC, C–212–CD, C– 

212–CE, C–212–CF, C–212–DE, and C– 

212–DF airplanes. This AD was 

prompted by a report of cracks on the 

left-hand (LH) and right-hand (RH) side 

fuselage skin and on a certain frame 

underneath the skin, near the leading 

edge of the wing. This AD requires 

repetitive inspections of the LH and RH 

side center wing fairings at a certain 

frame, around the wing leading edge for 

discrepancies (cracks), and repair if 

necessary, as specified in a European 

Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) 

AD, which is incorporated by reference. 

The FAA is issuing this AD to address 

the unsafe condition on these products. 

DATES: This AD is effective September 

28, 2021. 

The Director of the Federal Register 

approved the incorporation by reference 

of a certain publication listed in this AD 

as of September 28, 2021.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

EASA, which is the Technical Agent 

for the Member States of the European 

Union, issued EASA AD 2020–0182, 

dated August 13, 2020 (EASA AD 2020– 

0182) (also referred to as the Mandatory 

Continuing Airworthiness Information, 

or the MCAI), to correct an unsafe 

condition for certain Airbus Defense 

and Space S.A Model C–212–CB, C– 

212–CC, C–212–CD, C–212–CE, C–212– 

CF, C–212–DD, C–212–DE, C–212–DF, 

C–212–EE and C–212–VA airplanes. 

Model C–212–DD, C–212–EE, and C– 

212–VA airplanes are not certificated by 

the FAA and are not included on the 

U.S. type certificate data sheet; this AD 

therefore does not include those 

airplanes in the applicability. 

The FAA issued a notice of proposed 

rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR 

part 39 by adding an AD that would 

apply to certain Airbus Defense and 

Space S.A. Model C–212–CB, C–212– 

CC, C–212–CD, C–212–CE, C–212–CF, 

C–212–DE, and C–212–DF airplanes. 

The NPRM was published in the 

Federal Register on March 11, 2021 (86 

FR 13841). The NPRM was prompted by 

a report of cracks on the LH and RH side 

fuselage skin and on frame (FR) 5 

underneath the skin, near the leading 

edge of the wing. The NPRM proposed 

to require repetitive inspections of the 

LH and RH side center wing fairings at 

FR 5, around the wing leading edge for 

discrepancies (cracks), and repair if 

necessary, as specified in EASA AD 

2020–0182. 

The FAA is issuing this AD to address 

cracks on the LH and RH side fuselage 

skin and on FR 5 underneath the skin, 

near the leading edge of the wing, which 

could affect the structural integrity of 

the airplane. See the MCAI for 

additional background information. 

Comments 

The FAA gave the public the 

opportunity to participate in developing 

this final rule. The following presents 

the comments received on the NPRM 

and the FAA’s response. 

Request To Allow Special Flight 

Permits 

Ryan Air reported that it began 

detecting and repairing fuselage skin 

cracks on its fleet in 2018, and no new 

cracks have since been detected in more 

than 10,000 flight hours. Assuming the 

cracking did not all occur at the same 

time, Ryan Air questioned why the 

proposed AD would require repair 

before further flight. Ryan Air 

recommended that the proposed AD be 

revised to allow flying the airplane to a 

location where repairs can be made after 

finding cracks in this area. 

The FAA notes that 14 CFR 39.23 

allows flight to a repair facility for every 

AD, if the operations specifications (ops 

specs) for a particular operator give that 

authority, unless they are specifically 

prohibited or limited in an AD. Any 

operator who does not have the 

authority in their ops specs may contact 

their local FAA Flight Standards District 

Office to receive a special flight permit. 

No change to the AD is necessary as a 

result of this comment. 

Request To Allow Certain Approvals 

Ryan Air recommended that the 

proposed AD be revised to allow repairs 

approved by a part 25 structures 

designated engineering representative 

(DER). Ryan Air stated that repair 

approvals from Airbus Engineering and 

the FAA have taken four weeks or 

longer. Ryan Air asserted that grounding 

an airplane for more than a month—for 

a four-day repair—would be an 

unreasonable economic burden on 

affected operators, who are mostly small 

business owners. 

The FAA disagrees with this request. 

This AD allows required repairs to be 

approved only by the FAA, EASA, or 

Airbus Defense and Space S.A.’s EASA 

Design Organization Approval (DOA). 

For approval by a part 25 structures DER 

for the corrective repair required by this 

AD, an operator must first request
