14 CFR Part 39

[Docket No. FAA-2012-1067; Directorate Identifier 2011-NM-231-AD; 
Amendment 39-17444; AD 2013-09-03]
RIN 2120-AA64

Airworthiness Directives; Dassault Aviation Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Department of 
Transportation (DOT).

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain 
DASSAULT AVIATION Model FALCON 2000, FALCON 2000EX, MYSTERE-FALCON 900, 
and FALCON 900EX airplanes; and all Model MYSTERE-FALCON 50 airplanes. 
This AD was prompted by reports that collapse of the main landing gear 
(MLG) could cause wing tank structure failure, which could result in 
fuel spillage and consequent fire hazard. This AD requires modification 
of the wing fuel tanks in the area of the wheel well. We are issuing 
this AD to prevent fuel spillage in the event of a MLG collapse, and 
consequent fire hazard.

DATES: This AD becomes effective August 14, 2013.
    The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by 
reference of certain publications listed in this AD as of August 14, 
2013.

ADDRESSES: You may examine the AD docket on the Internet at http://www.regulations.gov or in person at the U.S. Department of 
Transportation, Docket Operations, M-30, West Building Ground Floor, 
Room W12-140, 1200 New Jersey Avenue SE., Washington, DC.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Discussion

    We issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR 
part 39 to include an AD that would apply to the specified products. 
That NPRM was published in the Federal Register on October 10, 2012 (77 
FR 61539). That NPRM proposed to correct an unsafe condition for the 
specified products. The Mandatory Continuing Airworthiness Information 
(MCAI) states:

    In service experience has shown that, in case of main landing 
gear collapse due to overloads during take off or landing (e.g., 
during high-speed runway excursions), the wing tank structure can 
fail, leading to fuel spillage. . . .
    This condition, if not corrected, could result, in case of main 
landing gear collapse, in a fuel spillage which may constitute a 
fire hazard.
    To address this unsafe condition, Dassault Aviation have 
developed a structural modification of the wing fuel tanks in the 
area of the wheel well which introduces a dry bay by adding a sealed 
boundary in front of the rear spar between ribs 4 and 5.
    For the reasons described above, this [European Aviation Safety 
Agency (EASA)] AD [2011-0193, dated October 5, 2011] requires 
accomplishment of the above-mentioned modification for the Right 
Hand (RH) and Left Hand (LH) wing fuel tanks.

You may obtain further information by examining the MCAI in the AD 
docket.

Comments

    We gave the public the opportunity to participate in developing 
this AD. We considered the comments received.

Request for Updated Service Information

    Dassault Aviation requested that we revise the NPRM (77 FR 61539, 
October 10, 2012) to reference Dassault Mandatory Service Bulletin 
F900-388, Revision 3, dated October 19, 2011. (We referred to Dassault 
Mandatory Service Bulletin F900-388, Revision 2, dated March 10, 2010, 
as the appropriate source of service information for certain airplanes 
for accomplishing the modification specified in paragraph (g) of the 
NPRM.)
    We agree. Dassault Mandatory Service Bulletin F900-388, Revision 3, 
dated October 19, 2011, clarifies the placard instructions for certain 
airplanes. We have updated the reference in paragraph (g)(3) of this AD 
to Dassault Mandatory Service Bulletin F900-388, Revision 3, dated 
October 19, 2011. We have also added paragraph (h)(3)(iii) to this AD 
to allow credit for actions done before the effective date of this AD 
using Dassault Mandatory Service Bulletin F900-388, Revision 2, dated 
March 10, 2010.

Request for Clarification of Credit Service Bulletin

    Tidewater Inc. stated it has already complied with Dassault 
Mandatory Service Bulletin F2000EX-171, dated July 6, 2009, and 
requested we take that into consideration. The commenter noted that 
Dassault Mandatory Service Bulletin F2000EX-171, Revision 3, dated 
March 10, 2010, states that Dassault Mandatory Service Bulletin 
F2000EX-171, Revision 1, dated October 22, 2009; Revision 2, dated 
February 15, 2010; and Revision 3, dated March 10, 2010; are not 
applicable to aircraft already modified as specified in the original 
service bulletin.
    We agree to clarify. Dassault Mandatory Service Bulletin F2000EX-
171, Revision 3, dated March 10, 2010, does specifically state that 
Revision 3 is ``not applicable to aircraft already changed per the 
original issue or revision 1 or revision 2.'' Also, as proposed in the 
NPRM (77 FR 61539, October 10, 2012), paragraph (h) of this AD states 
that credit is allowed for actions done before the effective date of 
this AD using certain service information, including Dassault Mandatory 
Service Bulletin F2000EX-171, dated July 6, 2009; Revision 1, dated 
October 22, 2009; and Revision 2, dated February 15, 2010; as specified 
in

[[Page 41275]]

paragraph (h)(5) of this AD. No change has been made to the AD in this 
regard.

Conclusion

    We reviewed the available data, including the comments received, 
and determined that air safety and the public interest require adopting 
the AD with the changes described previously and minor editorial 
changes. We have determined that these changes:
     Are consistent with the intent that was proposed in the 
NPRM (77 FR 61539, October 10, 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 61539, October 10, 2012).

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this AD will affect 753 products of U.S. registry. 
We also estimate that it will take about 640 work-hours per product to 
comply with the basic requirements of this AD. The average labor rate 
is $85 per work-hour. Required parts will cost about $18,500 per 
product. Where the service information lists required parts costs that 
are covered under warranty, we have assumed that there will be no 
charge for these parts. As we do not control warranty coverage for 
affected parties, some parties may incur costs higher than estimated 
here. Based on these figures, we estimate the cost of this AD to the 
U.S. operators to be $54,893,700, or $72,900 per product.

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 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 the 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.
    We prepared a regulatory evaluation of the estimated costs to 
comply with this AD and placed it in the AD docket.
