Airworthiness Directives; PTC Seating

Products Division, B/E Aerospace,

Model 950 Series Passenger Seats

Equipped With Footrest Assembly

AGENCY: Federal Aviation

Administration, DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

SUMMARY: This amendment adopts a

new airworthiness directive (AD),

applicable to PTC Seating Products

Division, B/E Aerospace (PTC), formally

known as PTC Aerospace, Model 950

series passenger seats with footrest

assembly. This amendment will require

the removal of the footrest assembly

arms and the installation of a

conversion kit on each PTC Model 950

series passenger seat equipped with

footrest assembly. This amendment is

prompted by two incidents of finger

injuries that occurred during attempts to

either extend or retract the footrest

system on PTC Model 950 series

passenger seats equipped with footrest

assembly. The actions specified by this

AD are intended to prevent injury to

hands during the operation of a PTC

Model 950 series passenger seat

equipped with footrest assembly.

DATES: Effective July 29, 1996.

The incorporation by reference of

certain publications listed in the

regulations is approved by the Director

of the Federal Register July 29, 1996.

ADDRESSES: The service information

referenced in this AD may be obtained

from B/E Aerospace, PTC Seating

Products Division, 607 Bantam Road,

Litchfield, CT 06759. This information

may be examined at the FAA, New

England Region, Office of the Assistant

Chief Counsel, 12 New England

Executive Park, Burlington, MA; or at

the Office of the Federal Register, 800

North Capitol Street, NW, suite 700,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: A

proposal to amend part 39 of the Federal

Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 39) to

include an airworthiness directive (AD)

that is applicable to PTC Model 950

series passenger seats equipped with

footrest assembly was published in the

Federal Register on October 2, 1995 (60

FR 51375). That action proposed to

require the removal of the footrest

assembly arms and the installation of a

conversion kit on each PTC Model 950

series passenger seat equipped with

footrest assembly.

Interested persons have been afforded

an opportunity to participate in the

making of this amendment. Due

consideration has been given to the

comments received.

One commenter states that the

compliance time of 9 months should

only apply to the footrest on first class

Model 950 seats, stating that the

potential problem with the linkage only

occurs on the first class Model 950 seats

when the footrest is in a horizontal

position. The commenter further states,

that the compliance time should be

increased to 18 months on the executive

class Model 950 seats, since the footrest

has a physical stop that limits the travel

of the linkage and thus the footrest to

approximately 45 degrees.

The FAA disagrees. The FAA has

examined the various seats equipped

with footrest and finds that the potential

for injury to the hands exists on all of

these seat models. The FAA considers

the modification to be repetitive and not

complex, therefore, does not need to be

done during scheduled maintenance.

An increase of the compliance time to

18 months is not needed.

There are approximately 5800 seats

equipped with footrest assembly of the

affected design in the worldwide fleet.

The FAA estimates that 5000 seats
32318 Federal Register / Vol. 61, No. 122 / Monday, June 24, 1996 / Rules and Regulations

equipped with footrest assembly

installed on aircraft of U.S. registry

would be affected by this AD, that it

would take approximately 3⁄4 work

hours per seat to accomplish the

required actions, and that the average

labor rate is $60 per work hour.

Required parts will cost approximately

$30 per seat. Based on these figures, the

total cost impact of the AD on U.S.

operators is estimated to be $225,000.

The regulations adopted herein will

not have substantial direct effects 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. Therefore, in

accordance with Executive Order 12612,

it is determined that this final rule does

not have sufficient federalism

implications to warrant the preparation

of a Federalism Assessment.

For the reasons discussed above, I

certify that this action (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. A final evaluation has

been prepared for this action and is

contained at the location provided

under the caption ADDRESSES.

Note: This AD applies to each seat

identified in the preceding applicability

provision, regardless of whether it has been

modified, altered, or repaired in the area

subject to the requirements of this AD. For

seats equipped with footrest assembly that

have been modified, altered, or repaired so

that the performance of the requirements of

this AD is affected, the owner/operator must

use the authority provided in paragraph (b)

to request approval from the FAA. This

approval may address either no action, if the

current configuration eliminates the unsafe

condition, or different actions necessary to

address the unsafe condition described in

this AD. Such a request should include an

assessment of the effect of the changed

configuration on the unsafe condition

addressed by this AD. In no case does the

presence of any modification, alteration, or

repair remove any seat from the applicability

of this AD.

Compliance: Required as indicated, unless

accomplished previously. To prevent injury

to hands during operation of the PTC Model

950 series passenger seats equipped with

Airworthiness Directives; Transport

Category Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation

Administration, DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

SUMMARY: This amendment revises an

existing airworthiness directive (AD),

applicable to all transport category

airplanes, that currently requires

installation of placards prohibiting

smoking in the lavatory and disposal of

cigarettes in the lavatory waste

receptacles; establishment of a

procedure to announce to airplane

occupants that smoking is prohibited in

the lavatories; installation of ashtrays at

certain locations; and repetitive

inspections to ensure that lavatory

waste receptacle doors operate correctly.

That AD was prompted by fires

occurring in lavatories, which were

caused by, among other things, the

improper disposal of smoking materials

in lavatory waste receptacles. The

actions specified by that AD are

intended to prevent such fires. This

amendment revises the existing AD to

allow dispatch relief in the event a

lavatory door ashtray is missing.

EFFECTIVE DATE: July 29, 1996.

ADDRESSES: Information pertaining to

this rulemaking may be examined at the
