14 CFR Part 39

Airworthiness Directives; Lockheed Martin Corporation/Lockheed 
Martin Aeronautics Company Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: We are superseding an airworthiness directive (AD) for all 
Lockheed Martin Corporation/Lockheed Martin Aeronautics Company Model 
L-1011 series airplanes. AD 2005-15-01 required repetitive inspections 
to detect corrosion or fatigue cracking of certain structural elements 
of the airplane, corrective actions if necessary, and incorporation of 
certain structural modifications. This new AD reduces certain 
compliance times for the initial inspection and the repetitive 
inspection interval for certain airplanes. This AD was prompted by 
reports of small cracks in additional areas outside those addressed in 
AD 2005-15-01, prior to the inspection threshold required by the AD 
2005-15-01. We are issuing this AD to prevent corrosion or fatigue 
cracking of certain structural elements, which could result in reduced 
structural integrity of the airplane.

DATES: This AD is effective October 1, 2013.
    The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by 
reference of certain publications listed in the AD as of October 1, 
2013.
    The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by 
reference of certain other publications listed in this AD as of August 
26, 2005 (70 FR 42262, July 22, 2005).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Discussion

    We issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR 
part 39 to supersede AD 2005-15-01, Amendment 39-14190 (70 FR 42262, 
July 22, 2005). AD 2005-15-01 applied to the specified products. The 
NPRM published in the Federal Register on October 16, 2012 (77 FR 
63275). The NPRM proposed to continue to require repetitive inspections 
to detect corrosion or fatigue cracking of certain structural elements 
of the airplane, corrective actions if necessary, and incorporation of 
certain structural modifications. The NPRM also proposed to require 
reducing certain compliance times for the initial inspection and the 
repetitive inspection interval for certain airplanes.

Comments

    We gave the public the opportunity to participate in developing 
this AD. The following presents the comments received on the proposal 
(77 FR 63275, October 16, 2012) and the FAA's response to each comment.

Request To Update Certain Address Information

    Lockheed Martin Corporation/Lockheed Martin Aeronautics Company 
requested that we revise the NPRM (77 FR 63275, October 16, 2012) to 
update its address information.
    We agree to update the address information in this final rule. We 
have included this updated information in the ADDRESSES section and 
paragraph (n)(5) of this AD.

Additional Change Made to This AD

    We have revised paragraph (g)(10) of this AD (in table 1 to 
paragraph (g) of this AD) to include paragraph identifiers for 
paragraphs (g)(10)(i) and (g)(10)(ii) of this AD. This change is for 
formatting purposes only.

Conclusion

    We reviewed the relevant data, considered the comment received, and 
determined that air safety and the public interest require adopting 
this AD with the change described previously--and minor editorial 
changes. We have determined that these minor changes:
     Are consistent with the intent that was proposed in the 
NPRM (77 FR 63275, October 16, 2012) for correcting the unsafe 
condition; and
     Do not add any additional burden upon the public than was 
already proposed in the NPRM (77 FR 63275, October 16, 2012).
    We also determined that these changes will not increase the 
economic burden on any operator or increase the scope of the AD.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this AD affects 26 airplanes of U.S. registry.
    We estimate the following costs to comply with this AD:

    We have received no definitive data that would enable us to provide 
cost estimates for the retained on-condition actions specified in this 
AD.

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.
    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 
rulemaking action.

Regulatory Findings

    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.
    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 DOT Regulatory Policies and 
Procedures (44 FR 11034, February 26, 1979),
    (3) Will not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska, and
    (4) 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.

Adoption of the Amendment

    Accordingly, under the authority delegated to me by the 
Administrator, the FAA amends 14 CFR part 39 as follows:

the following new AD:

2013-15-18 Lockheed Martin Corporation/Lockheed Martin Aeronautics 
Company: Amendment 39-17534; Docket No. FAA-2012-1078; Directorate 
Identifier 2011-NM-012-AD.

(a) Effective Date

    This AD is effective October 1, 2013.

(b) Affected ADs

    This AD supersedes AD 2005-15-01, Amendment 39-14190 (70 FR 
42262, July 22, 2005).

(c) Applicability

    This AD applies to all Lockheed Martin Corporation/Lockheed 
Martin Aeronautics Company Model L-1011-385-1, L-1011-385-1-14, L-
1011-385-1-15, and L-1011-385-3 airplanes, certificated in any

(ATA) of America Code 51, Standard practices/structures; 52, Doors; 
53, Fuselage; 57, Wings.

(e) Unsafe Condition

    This AD was prompted by reports of small cracks in additional 
areas outside those addressed in AD 2005-15-01, Amendment 39-14190 
(70 FR 42262, July 22, 2005), prior to the inspection threshold 
required by AD 2005-15-01. We are issuing this AD to prevent 
corrosion or fatigue cracking of certain structural elements, which 
could result in reduced structural integrity of the airplane.

(f) Compliance

    Comply with this AD within the compliance times specified, 
unless already done.

(g) Retained Inspections With Revised Service Information and Reduced 
Compliance Times

    This paragraph restates the inspections required by paragraph 
(a) of AD 2005-15-01, Amendment 39-14190 (70 FR 42262, July 22, 
2005), with revised service information and reduced compliance times 
for paragraph (g)(16) of this AD. At the time specified in the 
``Initial Compliance Time'' column of table 1 to paragraph (g) of 
this AD, perform structural inspections to detect corrosion or 
fatigue cracking of certain structural elements of the airplane, in 
accordance with the applicable service bulletins listed under 
``Service Bulletin Number, Revision, and Date'' in tables I and II 
of Lockheed Tristar L-1011 Service Bulletin 093-51-041, Revision 1, 
dated March 3, 2000; or Revision 2, dated March 30, 2010 (The 
applicable service bulletins are also identified in Table 1 to 
paragraph (g) of this AD.) As of the effective date of this AD, only 
Lockheed Tristar L-1011 Service Bulletin 093-51-041, Revision 2, 
dated March 30, 2010, may be used for the actions required by this 
paragraph. Thereafter, repeat the inspections at intervals specified 
in the ``Repetitive Intervals'' column of table 1 to paragraph (g) 
of this AD.
