Airworthiness Directives; Raytheon 

Aircraft Company Models 1900, 1900C, 

1900C (C–12J), and 1900D Airplanes 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Final rule; request for 

comments. 

SUMMARY: The FAA is adopting a new 

airworthiness directive (AD) for certain 

Raytheon Aircraft Company Models 

1900, 1900C, 1900C (C–12J), and 1900D 

airplanes. This AD requires you to 

inspect all elevator hinge support 

attachments on both left and right 

elevators for loose and missing rivets, 

replace rivets if loose or missing rivets 

are found, inspect the elevator hinge 

joints for looseness and clearance of 

each elevator to its stabilizer, correct 

looseness and clearance if incorrect, and 

report results of the required 

inspections. This AD results from a 

report of excessive movement of the 

elevator and elevator trim. The hinge 

support attachment that attaches the 

elevator to the horizontal stabilizer was 

loose and had loose and missing rivets. 

The elevator counterweight horn 

showed evidence of rubbing against the 

horizontal stabilizer, indicating possible 

incorrect clearance. We are issuing this 

AD to detect and correct any looseness 

in the elevator hinge support 

attachments, which could result in 

binding of the elevator control system. 

This elevator binding could lead to loss 

of control of the airplane. 

DATES: This AD becomes effective 

September 13, 2005. 

As of September 13, 2005, the 

Director of the Federal Register 

approved the incorporation by reference 

of certain publications listed in the 

regulation. 

We must receive any comments on 

this AD by October 20, 2005.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

What events have caused this AD? On 

a recent flight, a Model 1900D 

experienced a binding elevator control 

column during takeoff. The pilot was 

able to free the control column. During 

continuation of the flight the elevator 

trim moved slowly nose up and 

required a one-half unit trim adjustment 

every one to two minutes. An inspection 

found a missing rivet and other loose 

rivets on the outboard hinge attachment 

that attaches the elevator to the 

horizontal stabilizer. The elevator 

counterweight horn showed evidence of 

rubbing against the horizontal stabilizer, 

indicating possible incorrect clearance. 

Loose rivets were found on other 

airplanes of the same type design. 

What is the potential impact if FAA 

took no action? Looseness in the 

elevator hinge support attachments 

could result in binding of the elevator 

control system. This elevator binding 

could lead to loss of control of the 

airplane. 

Is there service information that 

applies to this subject? Raytheon 

Aircraft Company has issued Safety 

Communique ́ No. 261, dated August 

2005. 

What are the provisions of this service 

information? The service information 

specifies inspecting all elevator hinge 

support attachments on both left and 

right elevators. 

FAA’s Determination and Requirements 

of the AD 

What has FAA decided? We have 

evaluated all pertinent information and 

identified an unsafe condition that is 

likely to exist or develop on other 

products of this same type design. 

Since the unsafe condition described 

previously is likely to exist or develop 

on other Raytheon Aircraft Company 

Models 1900, 1900C, 1900C (C–12J), and 

1900D airplanes of the same type 

design, we are issuing this AD to detect 

and correct any looseness in the elevator 

hinge support attachments, which could 

result in binding of the elevator control 

system. This elevator binding could lead 

to loss of control of the airplane. 

What does this AD require? This AD 

requires you to inspect all elevator 

hinge support attachments on both left 

and right elevators for loose and missing 

rivets, replace rivets if loose or missing 

rivets are found, inspect the elevator 

hinge joints for looseness and clearance 

of each elevator to its stabilizer, correct 

looseness and/or clearance if incorrect, 

and report results of the required 

inspections. 

How does the revision to 14 CFR part 

39 affect this AD? On July 10, 2002, we 

published a new version of 14 CFR part 

39 (67 FR 47997, July 22, 2002), which 

governs FAA’s AD system. This 

regulation now includes material that 

relates to altered products, special flight 

permits, and alternative methods of 

compliance. This material previously 

Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 176 / Tuesday, September 13, 2005 / Rules and Regulations 53911 

was included in each individual AD. 

Since this material is included in 14 

CFR part 39, we will not include it in 

future AD actions. 

Comments Invited 

Will I have the opportunity to 

comment before you issue the rule? 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 submit any 

written relevant data, views, or 

arguments regarding this AD. Send your 

comments to an address listed under 

ADDRESSES. Include ‘‘Docket No. FAA–

2005–22332; Directorate Identifier 

2005–CE–46–AD’’ in the subject line of 

your comments. If you want us to 

acknowledge receipt of your mailed 

comments, send us a self-addressed, 

stamped postcard with the docket 

number written on it; we will datestamp your postcard and mail it back to 

you. We specifically invite comments 

on the overall regulatory, economic, 

environmental, and energy aspects of 

the rule that might suggest a need to 

modify it. If a person contacts us 

through a nonwritten communication, 

and that contact relates to a substantive 

part of this AD, we will summarize the 

contact and place the summary in the 

docket. We will consider all comments 

received by the closing date and may 

amend the AD in light of those 

comments. 

Authority for This Rulemaking 

What authority does FAA have for 

issuing this rulemaking action? 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 AD. 

Regulatory Findings 

Will this AD impact various entities? 

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. 

Will this AD involve a significant rule 

or regulatory action? 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 the 

DOT Regulatory Policies and Procedures 

(44 FR 11034, February 26, 1979); and 

3. 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. 

We prepared a summary of the costs 

to comply with this AD (and other 

information as included in the 

Regulatory Evaluation) and placed it in 

the AD Docket. You may get a copy of 

this summary by sending a request to us 

at the address listed under ADDRESSES. 

Include ‘‘AD Docket FAA–2005–22332; 

Directorate Identifier 2005–CE–46–AD’’

in your request.

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: The FAA adopts a new 

airworthiness directive (AD) for certain 

Raytheon Aircraft Company (Raytheon) 

Premier 1 390 airplanes. This AD 

requires you to verify minimum 

clearances to correct chafing conditions 

in the powerplant left-hand and righthand engine installations. This AD 

results from reports of inadequate lefthand and right-hand engine assembly 

cable, wire, and hose routing clearance. 

We are issuing this AD to detect and 

correct chafing conditions in the engine 

installation, which could result in 

leaking flammable fluids near an 

ignition source. This failure could lead 

to fire damage or loss of airplane 

control. 

DATES: This AD becomes effective on 

November 14, 2005. 

As of November 14, 2005, the Director 

of the Federal Register approved the 

incorporation by reference of certain

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Discussion 

What events have caused this AD? 

The FAA has received reports of chafing 

conditions in the powerplant left-hand 

and right-hand engine assembly cable, 

wire, and hose routing clearance. The 

incidents of chafing have been reported 

on airplane serial numbers: RB–20, RB–

50, RB–61, and RB–101. 

Investigation revealed that the areas of 

concern include control cables, wiring 

harnesses, fluid and drain hoses, and 

support structure. Further, FAA 

determined that the cause of the unsafe 

condition relates to the design and 

quality control. 

Raytheon developed kits and service 

information to correct the chafing 

conditions. 

What is the potential impact if FAA 

took no action? The existence of chafing
