Airworthiness Directives; Airbus SAS 

Airplanes 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking 

(NPRM). 

SUMMARY: The FAA proposes to 

supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD) 

2019–03–25, which applies to certain 

Airbus SAS Model A318 series 

airplanes; Model A319–111, –112, –113, 

–114, –115, –131, –132, and –133 

airplanes; Model A320–211, –212, –214, 

–216, –231, –232, and –233 airplanes; 

and Model A321–111, –112, –131, –211, 

–212, –213, –231, and –232 airplanes. 

AD 2019–03–25 requires repetitive 

inspections of the center and outer wing 

box lower stiffeners and panels at a 

certain junction on the left- and righthand sides for any cracking, and repair 

if necessary. AD 2019–03–25 also 

provides an optional modification, 

which would terminate the repetitive 

inspections. Since the FAA issued AD 

2019–03–25, it has been determined 

that, for certain airplanes, the 

compliance time for the initial 

inspection is inadequate and must be 

revised. This proposed AD continues to 

require the actions specified in AD 

2019–03–25 with revised compliance 

times for certain airplanes and 

additional actions for certain airplanes, 

and expands the applicability, as 

specified in a European Aviation Safety 

Agency (EASA) AD, which is proposed 

for incorporation by reference. The FAA 

is proposing this AD to address the 

unsafe condition on these products. 

DATES: The FAA must receive comments 

on this proposed AD by May 26, 2022. 

ADDRESSES: You may send comments, 

using the procedures found in 14 CFR 

11.43 and 11.45, by any of the following

Background 

The FAA issued AD 2019–03–25, 

Amendment 39–19577 (84 FR 8805, 

March 12, 2019) (AD 2019–03–25), 

which applies to certain Airbus SAS 

Model A318 series airplanes; Model 

A319–111, –112, –113, –114, –115, 

–131, –132, and –133 airplanes; Model 

A320–211, –212, –214, –216, –231, 

–232, and –233 airplanes; and Model 

A321–111, –112, –131, –211, –212, 

–213, –231, and –232 airplanes. AD 

2019–03–25 requires repetitive special 

detailed inspections (SDIs) of the center 

and outer wing box lower stiffeners and 

panels at a certain junction on the leftand right-hand sides for any cracking, 

and repair if necessary. AD 2019–03–25 

also provides an optional modification, 

which would terminate the repetitive 

inspections. The FAA issued AD 2019– 

03–25 to address the loss of pre-tension 

in the fasteners, which could affect the 

structural integrity of the airplane. 

Actions Since AD 2019–03–25 Was 

Issued 

Since the FAA issued AD 2019–03– 

25, it has been determined that, for 

certain airplanes, the compliance time 

for the initial inspection is inadequate 

and must be revised and additional 

actions are required. Additionally, the 

applicability is expanded. 

EASA, which is the Technical Agent 

for the Member States of the European 

Union, has issued EASA AD 2021–0228, 

dated October 12, 2021 (EASA AD 

2021–0228) (also referred to as the 

MCAI), to correct an unsafe condition 

for certain Airbus SAS Model A318 

series airplanes; Model A319–111, –112, 

–113, –114, –115, –131, –132, and –133 

airplanes; Model A320–211, –212, –214, 

–215, –216, –231, –232, and –233 

airplanes; and Model A321–111, –112, 

–131, –211, –212, –213, –231, and –232 

airplanes. Model A320–215 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. 

EASA AD 2021–0228 superseded 

EASA AD 2018–0218, dated October 11, 

2018; corrected October 26, 2018 (which 

corresponds to FAA AD 2019–03–25). 

This proposed AD was prompted by 

a report that taperloks used in the wingto-fuselage junction at rib 1 were found 

to be noncompliant with the applicable 

specification, resulting in a loss of pretension in the fasteners; and a 

determination that, for certain airplanes, 

the compliance time for the initial 

inspection is inadequate and must be 

revised. The FAA is proposing this AD 

to address the loss of pre-tension in the 

fasteners, which could affect the 

structural integrity of the airplane. See 

the MCAI for additional background 

information. 

Explanation of Retained Requirements 

Although this proposed AD does not 

explicitly restate the requirements of AD 

2019–03–25, this proposed AD would 

retain the requirements of AD 2019–03– 

25. Those requirements are referenced 

in EASA AD 2021–0228, which, in turn, 

is referenced in paragraph (g) of this 

proposed AD. 

Related Service Information Under 1 

CFR Part 51 

EASA AD 2021–0228 specifies 

procedures for repetitive internal and 

external SDIs (ultrasonic inspections) of 

the center and outer wing box lower 

stiffeners and panels at the level of rib 

1 junction on the left- and right-hand 

sides for any cracking, and repair if 

necessary; and additional actions (reprotection of the inspected area at the 

lower panel at rib1 junction at the leftand right-hand sides) for airplanes on 

which certain service information was 

used. EASA AD 2021–0228 also 

specifies procedures for an optional 

modification, which would terminate 

the repetitive inspections. This material 

is reasonably available because the 

interested parties have access to it 

through their normal course of business 

or by the means identified in the 

ADDRESSES section. 

FAA’s Determination 

These products have been approved 

by the aviation authority of another 

country and are approved for operation 

in the United States. Pursuant to the 

FAA’s bilateral agreement with the State 

of Design Authority, it has notified the 

FAA of the unsafe condition described 

in the MCAI referenced above. The FAA 

is issuing this NPRM after determining 

that the unsafe condition described 

previously is likely to exist or develop 

in other products of these same type 

designs. 

Proposed AD Requirements in This 

NPRM 

This proposed AD would require 

accomplishing the actions specified in 

EASA AD 2021–0228 described 

previously, except for any differences 

identified as exceptions in the 

regulatory text of this proposed AD. 

Explanation of Required Compliance 

Information 

In the FAA’s ongoing efforts to 

improve the efficiency of the AD 

process, the FAA developed a process to 

use some civil aviation authority (CAA) 

ADs as the primary source of 

information for compliance with 

requirements for corresponding FAA 

ADs. The FAA has been coordinating 

this process with manufacturers and 

CAAs. As a result, the FAA proposes to 

incorporate EASA AD 2021–0228 by 

reference in the FAA final rule. This 

proposed AD would, therefore, require 

compliance with EASA AD 2021–0228 

in its entirety through that 

incorporation, except for any differences 

identified as exceptions in the 

regulatory text of this proposed AD. 

Using common terms that are the same 

as the heading of a particular section in 

EASA AD 2021–0228 does not mean 

that operators need comply only with 

that section. For example, where the AD 

requirement refers to ‘‘all required 

actions and compliance times,’’ 

compliance with this AD requirement is 

not limited to the section titled 

‘‘Required Action(s) and Compliance 

Time(s)’’ in EASA AD 2021–0228. 

Service information required by EASA 

AD 2021–0228 for compliance will be 

available at https://www.regulations.gov 

by searching for and locating Docket No. 

FAA–2022–0454 after the FAA final 

rule is published. 

Costs of Compliance 

The FAA estimates that this proposed 

AD affects 765 airplanes of U.S. registry. 

The FAA estimates the following costs 

to comply with this proposed AD: 

ESTIMATED COSTS FOR REQUIRED ACTIONS

Action Labor cost Parts cost Cost per 

product Cost on U.S. operators 

Retained actions from 2019–03–25 51 work-hours × $85 per hour = 

$4,335.

$0 $4,335 $25,860 (516 airplanes).

The FAA has received no definitive 

data that would enable the agency to 

provide cost estimates for the repair 

specified in this proposed AD. 

Paperwork Reduction Act 

A federal agency may not conduct or 

sponsor, and a person is not required to 

respond to, nor shall a person be subject 

to a penalty for failure to comply with 

a collection of information subject to the 

requirements of the Paperwork 

Reduction Act unless that collection of 

information displays a current valid 

OMB Control Number. The OMB 

Control Number for this information 

collection is 2120–0056. Public 

reporting for this collection of 

information is estimated to take 

approximately 1 hour per response, 

including the time for reviewing 

instructions, searching existing data 

sources, gathering and maintaining the 

data needed, and completing and 

reviewing the collection of information. 

All responses to this collection of 

information are mandatory. Send 

comments regarding this burden 

estimate or any other aspect of this 

collection of information, including 

suggestions for reducing this burden, to:

Officer, Federal Aviation 

Administration, 10101 Hillwood 

Parkway, Fort Worth, TX 76177–1524. 

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. 

The FAA is 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 

The FAA determined that this 

proposed AD would not have federalism 

implications under Executive Order 

13132. This proposed AD would 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 this proposed regulation: 

(1) Is not a ‘‘significant regulatory 

action’’ under Executive Order 12866, 

(2) Would not affect intrastate 

aviation in Alaska, and 

(3) Would not have a significant 

economic impact, positive or negative, 

on a substantial number of small entities 

under the criteria of the Regulatory 

Flexibility Act.

effective date of this AD. 

(2) Where paragraph (3) of EASA AD 2021– 

0228 specifies to ‘‘contact Airbus for 

approved repair instructions’’ if any damage 

(cracking) is found, for this AD, if any 

cracking is found, the cracking must be 

repaired before further flight using a method 

approved by the Manager, Large Aircraft 

Section, International Validation Branch, 

FAA; or EASA; or Airbus SAS’s EASA 

Design Organization Approval (DOA). If 

approved by the DOA, the approval must 

include the DOA-authorized signature.

Airworthiness Directives; Bombardier, 

Inc., Airplanes 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking 

(NPRM). 

SUMMARY: The FAA proposes to adopt a 

new airworthiness directive (AD) for 

certain Bombardier, Inc., Model BD– 

700–1A10 and BD–700–1A11 airplanes. 

This proposed AD was prompted by 

reports of the loss of all air data system 

information provided to the flightcrew 

during flight; the air data system 

information was recovered as the 

airplane descended to lower altitudes.

manual (AFM) to update the Unreliable

instructions for the flightcrew to 

stabilize the airspeed and altitude. The 

FAA is proposing this AD to address the 

unsafe condition on these products.
