Federal Register / Vol. 73, No. 164 / Friday, August 22, 2008 / Proposed Rules 49621 

on a substantial number of small entities 

under the criteria of the Regulatory 

Flexibility Act. 

We prepared a regulatory evaluation 

of the estimated costs to comply with 

this proposed AD and placed it in the 

AD docket. 

List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 39 

Air transportation, Aircraft, Aviation 

safety, Safety. 

The Proposed Amendment 

Accordingly, under the authority 

delegated to me by the Administrator, 

the FAA proposes to amend 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 adding 

the following new AD: 

Pratt & Whitney Canada: Docket No. FAA–

2008–0752; Directorate Identifier 2008–

NE–22–AD. 

Comments Due Date 

(a) We must receive comments by 

September 22, 2008. 

Affected Airworthiness Directives (ADs) 

(b) None. 

Applicability 

(c) This AD applies to the following Pratt 

& Whitney Canada (P&WC) turbofan engines 

with compressor air to HMU delivery tube, 

part number (P/N) 3119150–01 installed: 

(1) JT15D–5 turbofan engines, serial 

numbers (SNs) below and including SN PCE–

100411. 

(2) JT15D–5 turbofan engines, SNs below 

and including SN PCE–JA0818. 

(3) All JT15D–5B turbofan engines. 

(4) All JT15D–5F turbofan engines. 

(5) JT15D–5R turbofan engines SNs below 

and including SN PCE–JG0104. 

(6) All JT15D–5 turbofan engines converted 

to model JT15D–5R by incorporation of 

P&WC Service Bulletin No. 7605. 

These engines are installed on, but not 

limited to, Cessna models 500; 501; 550; 551; 

S550; 560; and 560 Ultra airplanes; 

Mitsubishi models 300 and 300–10 airplanes; 

and Hawker Beechcraft models 400; 400A; 

and 400T airplanes. 

Reason 

(d) Transport Canada AD CF–2008–23, 

dated June 27, 2008, states: 

There have been several reported incidents 

of high altitude, dual engine flameout on 

JT15D–5 engines powered aircraft operating 

in certain meteorological conditions. 

Subsequent to the investigation of incidents, 

review of the engine design has revealed that 

the Fuel Control Hydro Mechanical Unit 

(HMU) P3 servo can be exposed to excessive 

moisture and freezing. To preclude P3 servo 

freezing, P&WC has issued JT15D Alert 

Service Bulletin (ASB) JT15D–72–A7611 to 

re-route compressor delivery air to the HMU 

and improve moisture separation. 

Considering the potentially hazardous 

consequence of possible in-flight dual engine 

flameout, this airworthiness directive is 

issued to mandate the incorporation of P&WC 

ASB JT15D–72–A7611 to the affected JT15D–

5 engines, in order to minimize the 

possibility of this hazard. 

We are issuing this AD to prevent engine 

flameout, and possible dual-engine flameout 

events, caused by excessive moisture and 

freezing in the P3 servo, during certain flight 

conditions. 

Actions and Compliance 

(e) Unless already done, do the following 

actions. 

(1) Within 200 flight hours after the 

effective date of this AD or by December 31, 

2008, whichever occurs first, remove from 

service compressor air to HMU delivery tube, 

P/N 3119150–01. 

(2) Install a serviceable compressor air to 

HMU delivery tube. 

(3) Tube installation in accordance with 

P&WC Alert Service Bulletin (ASB) No. 

JT15D–72–A7611, Revision 1, dated June 16, 

2008, meets the requirements of this AD. 

Prohibition of Compressor Air to HMU 

Delivery Tube, P/N 3119150–01 

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

not install any compressor air to HMU 

delivery tube, P/N 3119150–01, onto any 

engine. 

Definition 

(f) For the purpose of this AD, a serviceable 

compressor air to HMU delivery tube is a 

compressor air to HMU delivery tube that is 

other than the old/removed tube part number 

listed in this AD. 

(g) Alternative Methods of Compliance 

(AMOCs): 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. 

Previous Credit 

(h) Replacement of the compressor air to 

HMU delivery tube using P&WC ASB No. 

JT15D–72–A7611, dated March 26, 2008, 

before the effective date of this AD, meets the 

requirements of this AD.
