Airworthiness Directives; BAE Systems (Operations) Limited 
Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule; request for comments.

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

SUMMARY: The FAA is superseding Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2005-06-
14, which applied to certain British Aerospace Model BAe 146 and Model 
Avro 146-RJ series airplanes. AD 2005-06-14 required repetitive 
inspections for cracking of the outer links on the main landing gear 
(MLG) side stays, and corrective actions if necessary. AD 2005-06-14 
also provided an optional terminating action for the repetitive 
inspections. Since the FAA issued AD 2005-06-14, there has been a 
report of additional cracking on a MLG side stay on which the 
terminating action has been done. This AD continues to require the 
actions specified in AD 2005-06-14 and requires new repetitive 
inspections for cracking of the MLG side stay outer link and 
replacement if necessary as specified in a United Kingdom (U.K.) Civil 
Aviation Authority (CAA) (U.K. CAA) AD, which is incorporated by 
reference. This AD also prohibits the installation of affected parts 
under certain conditions. The FAA is issuing this AD to address the 
unsafe condition on these products.

DATES: This AD is effective December 27, 2022.
    The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by 
reference of certain publications listed in this AD as of December 27, 
2022.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Comments Invited

    The FAA invites you to send any written data, views, or arguments 
about this final rule. Send your comments to an address listed under 
ADDRESSES. Include ``Docket No. FAA-2022-1574; Project Identifier MCAI-
2022-01362-T'' at the beginning of your comments. The most helpful 
comments reference a specific portion of the final rule, explain the 
reason for any recommended change, and include supporting data. The FAA 
will consider all comments received by the closing date and may amend 
this final rule because of those comments.
    Except for Confidential Business Information (CBI) as described in 
the following paragraph, and other information as described in 14 CFR 
11.35, the FAA will post all comments received, without change, to 
regulations.gov, including any personal information you provide. The 
agency will also post a report summarizing each substantive verbal 
contact received about this final rule.

Confidential Business Information

    CBI is commercial or financial information that is both customarily 
and actually treated as private by its owner. Under the Freedom of 
Information Act (FOIA) (5 U.S.C. 552), CBI is exempt from public 
disclosure. If your comments responsive to this AD contain commercial 
or financial information that is customarily treated as private, that 
you actually treat as private, and that is relevant or responsive to 
this AD, it is important that you clearly designate the submitted 
comments as CBI. Please mark each page of your submission containing 
CBI as ``PROPIN.'' The FAA will treat such marked submissions as 
confidential under the FOIA, and they will not be placed in the public 
docket of this AD. Submissions containing CBI should be sent to Todd 
Thompson, Aerospace Engineer, Large Aircraft Section, FAA, 
International Validation Branch, 2200 South 216th St., Des Moines, WA 
98198; telephone 206-231-3228; email [email protected]. Any 
commentary that the FAA receives which is not specifically designated 
as CBI will be placed in the public docket for this rulemaking.

Background

    The FAA issued AD 2005-06-14, Amendment 39-14024 (70 FR 15574, 
March 28, 2005; corrected April 14, 2005 (70 FR 19681)) (AD 2005-06-
14), for certain British Aerospace Model BAe 146 and Model Avro 146-RJ 
series airplanes. AD 2005-06-14 was prompted by an MCAI originated by 
the

[[Page 75916]]

Civil Aviation Authority (CAA), which is the aviation authority for the 
United Kingdom (U.K.) (U.K. CAA). U.K. CAA issued U.K. CAA AD 004-05-
2001 to correct an unsafe condition.
    AD 2005-06-14 required repetitive inspections for cracking of the 
outer links on the MLG side stays, and corrective actions if necessary. 
AD 2005-06-14 provided an optional terminating action for the 
repetitive inspections. The FAA issued AD 2005-06-14 to prevent 
cracking of the outer links of the MLG side stays, which could result 
in failure of a side stay and consequent collapse of the landing gear.

Actions Since AD 2005-06-14 Was Issued

    Since the FAA issued AD 2005-06-14, U.K. CAA superseded U.K. CAA AD 
004-05-2001, dated May 1, 2001 (U.K. CAA AD 004-05-2001), and issued 
U.K. CAA AD G-2022-0018, dated October 18, 2022 (U.K. CAA AD G-2022-
0018) (referred to after this as ``the MCAI''), to correct an unsafe 
condition on all BAe 146-301, BAe 146, and AVRO 146-RJ airplanes. Model 
BAe 146-301 airplanes are not certificated by the FAA and are not 
included on the U.S. type certificate data sheet; this AD therefore 
does not include those airplanes in the applicability. The MCAI states 
that since U.K. CAA AD 004-05-2001 was issued, there has been a report 
of additional cracking on a MLG side stay on which the terminating 
action has been done.
    The FAA is issuing this AD to address cracking on the shoulders of 
a MLG side stay outer link. The unsafe condition, if not addressed, 
could lead to failure of the side stay outer link and MLG collapse, 
which could result in a runway departure and could result in the engine 
or wing contacting the ground. The engine or wing contacting the ground 
could result in damage to the airplane, an increased risk of fire, the 
airplane flipping, and injury to occupants. You may examine the MCAI in 
the AD docket at regulations.gov under Docket No. FAA-2022-1574.

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    U.K. CAA AD G-2022-0018 specifies procedures for doing repetitive 
detailed inspections for cracking of the MLG side stay outer link and 
replacement if necessary.
    The FAA reviewed BAE Systems (Operations) Limited Alert Service 
Bulletin ASB.32-A189, dated September 16, 2022. This service 
information identifies the affected parts as MLG side stay outer links 
having Safran Landing Systems part numbers 200884304, 200884305, 
200884346, 200884347, 201105300, 201105301, 201105308, 201105309, 
201299300, 201299301, 201299305, or 201299306, and describes procedures 
for doing, among other actions, repetitive detailed inspections for 
cracking of MLG side stay outer links and replacement if necessary.
    The FAA also reviewed Messier-Dowty Service Bulletin 146-32-147, 
dated May 29, 2001, which identifies the affected MLG side stay outer 
links for AD 2005-06-14.
    This AD also requires BAE Systems (Operations) Limited Inspection 
Service Bulletin ISB.32-156, Revision 1, dated July 3, 2001, which the 
Director of the Federal Register approved for incorporation by 
reference as of May 2, 2005 (70 FR 15574, March 28, 2005; corrected 
April 14, 2005 (70 FR 19681)).
    This material is reasonably available because the interested 
parties have access to it through their normal course of business or by 
the means identified in the ADDRESSES section.

FAA's Determination

    This product has been approved by the aviation authority of another 
country and is approved for operation in the United States. Pursuant to 
the FAA's bilateral agreement with this State of Design Authority, it 
has notified the FAA of the unsafe condition described in the MCAI and 
service information described above. The FAA is issuing this AD after 
determining that the unsafe condition described previously is likely to 
exist or develop on other products of the same type design.

Requirements of This AD

    This AD continues to require the actions specified in AD 2005-06-14 
and requires accomplishing the actions specified in U.K. CAA AD G-2022-
0018 described previously, except for any differences identified as 
exceptions in the regulatory text of this AD and except as discussed 
under ``Differences Between this AD and the MCAI.'' This AD also 
prohibits the installation of affected parts under certain conditions. 
Accomplishing the new inspections specified in U.K. CAA AD G-2022-0018 
terminates the retained inspections required by AD 2005-06-14.

Explanation of Required Compliance Information

    In the FAA's ongoing efforts to improve the efficiency of the AD 
process, the FAA developed a process to use some civil aviation 
authority (CAA) ADs as the primary source of information for compliance 
with requirements for corresponding FAA ADs. As a result, U.K. CAA AD 
G-2022-0018 is incorporated by reference in this AD. This AD requires 
compliance with U.K. CAA AD G-2022-0018 in its entirety through that 
incorporation, except for any differences identified as exceptions in 
the regulatory text of this AD.

Differences Between This AD and the MCAI

    The applicability of U.K. CAA AD G-2022-0018 includes all BAE 
Systems (Operations) Limited Model BAe 146-100A, -200A, and -300A 
airplanes and Model Avro 146-RJ-RJ70A, 146-RJ85A, and 146-RJ100A 
airplanes. However, the applicability of this AD is limited to BAE 
Systems (Operations) Limited Model BAe 146-100A, -200A, and -300A 
airplanes and Model Avro 146-RJ-RJ70A, 146-RJ85A, and 146-RJ100A 
airplanes with MLG side stay outer links having Safran Landing Systems 
part number 200884304, 200884305, 200884346, 200884347, 201105300, 
201105301, 201105308, 201105309, 201299300, 201299301, 201299305, or 
201299306, as specified in BAE Systems (Operations) Limited Alert 
Service Bulletin ASB.32-A189, dated September 16, 2022, because the 
unsafe condition only applies to those MLG side stay outer links.

Interim Action

    The FAA considers that this AD is an interim action. If final 
action is later identified, the FAA might consider further rulemaking 
then.

FAA's Justification and Determination of the Effective Date

    Section 553(b)(3)(B) of the Administrative Procedure Act (APA) (5 
U.S.C. 551 et seq.) authorizes agencies to dispense with notice and 
comment procedures for rules when the agency, for ``good cause,'' finds 
that those procedures are ``impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary to 
the public interest.'' Under this section, an agency, upon finding good 
cause, may issue a final rule without providing notice and seeking 
comment prior to issuance. Further, section 553(d) of the APA 
authorizes agencies to make rules effective in less than thirty days, 
upon a finding of good cause.
    An unsafe condition exists that requires the immediate adoption of 
this AD without providing an opportunity for public comments prior to 
adoption. The FAA has found that the risk to the flying public 
justifies foregoing notice and comment prior to adoption of this rule 
because of possible MLG collapse, which could result in a runway 
departure, and could result in the

[[Page 75917]]

engine or wing contacting the ground. The engine or wing contacting the 
ground could result in damage to the airplane, an increased risk of 
fire, the airplane flipping, and injury to occupants. Accordingly, 
notice and opportunity for prior public comment are impracticable and 
contrary to the public interest pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(3)(B).
    In addition, the FAA finds that good cause exists pursuant to 5 
U.S.C. 553(d) for making this amendment effective in less than 30 days, 
for the same reasons the FAA found good cause to forgo notice and 
comment.

Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA)

    The requirements of the RFA do not apply when an agency finds good 
cause pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 553 to adopt a rule without prior notice and 
comment. Because the FAA has determined that it has good cause to adopt 
this rule without notice and comment, RFA analysis is not required.

Costs of Compliance

    The FAA estimates that this AD affects 15 airplanes of U.S. 
registry. The FAA estimates the following costs to comply with this AD:

                                      Estimated Costs for Required Actions

                                         hour = $85.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The FAA has received no definitive data on which to base the cost 
estimates for the 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.
    The FAA is 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

    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, and
    (2) Will not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska.

(70 FR 15574, March 28, 2005; corrected April 14, 2005 (70 FR 19681)); 
and
0
b. Adding the following new AD:

2022-25-18 BAE Systems (Operations) Limited: Amendment 39-22274; 
Docket No. FAA-2022-1574; Project Identifier MCAI-2022-01362-T.

(a) Effective Date

    This airworthiness directive (AD) is effective December 27, 
2022.

(b) Affected ADs

    This AD replaces AD 2005-06-14, Amendment 39-14024 (70 FR 15574, 
March 28, 2005; corrected April 14, 2005 (70 FR 19681)) (AD 2005-06-
14).

(c) Applicability

    This AD applies to BAE Systems (Operations) Limited Model BAe 
146-100A, -200A, and -300A airplanes and Model Avro 146-RJ-RJ70A, 
146-RJ85A, and 146-RJ100A airplanes, certificated in any category, 
with main landing gear (MLG) side stay outer links having Safran 
Landing Systems part number 200884304, 200884305, 200884346, 
200884347, 201105300, 201105301, 201105308, 201105309, 201299300, 
201299301, 201299305, or 201299306.

(d) Subject

    Air Transport Association (ATA) of America Code 32, Landing 
gear.

(e) Unsafe Condition

    This AD was prompted by reports of cracking on the shoulders of 
a main landing gear (MLG) side stay outer link. The FAA is issuing 
this AD to address cracking of the MLG side stay outer link. The 
unsafe condition, if not addressed, could lead to failure of the 
side stay outer link and MLG collapse, which could result in a 
runway departure, and could result in the engine or wing contacting 
the ground. The engine or wing contacting the ground could result in 
damage to the airplane, an increased risk of fire, the airplane 
flipping, and injury to occupants.

(f) Compliance

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

(g) Retained Inspections, With New Terminating Action

    This paragraph restates the requirements of paragraph (f) of AD 
2005-06-14, with new terminating action. For airplanes having any 
side stay identified in Messier-Dowty Service Bulletin 146-32-147, 
dated May 29, 2001: At the applicable time specified in paragraph 
(g)(1) or (2) of this AD, perform a detailed inspection for cracks 
of the outer links on the MLG side stays, in accordance with the 
Accomplishment Instructions of BAE Systems (Operations) Limited 
Inspection Service Bulletin ISB.32-156, Revision 1, dated July 3, 
2001. Repair cracks before further flight in accordance with the 
Accomplishment Instructions of BAE Systems (Operations) Limited 
Inspection Service Bulletin ISB.32-156, Revision 1, dated July 3, 
2001. Thereafter, repeat the inspection at intervals not to exceed 
2,000 flight cycles, until the actions specified in paragraph (h) of 
this AD have been done or

[[Page 75918]]

the initial inspection required by paragraph (i) of this AD has been 
done. Although BAE Systems (Operations) Limited Inspection Service 
Bulletin ISB.32-156, Revision 1, dated July 3, 2001, specifies to 
report certain information to the manufacturer, this AD does not 
require a report.
    (1) If the number of flight cycles accumulated on the side stay 
can be positively determined: Inspect before the accumulation of 
2,000 total flight cycles on the side stay, or within 500 flight 
cycles after May 2, 2005 (the effective date of AD 2005-06-14), 
whichever occurs later.
    (2) If the number of flight cycles accumulated on the side stay 
cannot be positively determined: Inspect within 500 flight cycles 
after May 2, 2005 (the effective date of AD 2005-06-14).

(h) Retained Optional Terminating Action for Paragraph (g) of This AD, 
With No Changes

    This paragraph restates the optional terminating action of 
paragraph (g) of AD 2005-06-14, with no changes. Relocation of each 
affected grease nipple to the upper surface of the outer link of the 
MLG side stays terminates the repetitive inspections required by 
paragraph (g) of this AD, if the relocation action is done in 
accordance with paragraph 2.C. of the Accomplishment Instructions of 
BAE Systems (Operations) Limited Inspection Service Bulletin ISB.32-
156, Revision 1, dated July 3, 2001.

(i) New Requirements

    Except as specified in paragraph (j) of this AD: Comply with all 
required actions and compliance times specified in, and in 
accordance with, United Kingdom Civil Aviation Authority AD G-2022-
0018, dated October 18, 2022 (U.K. CAA AD G-2022-0018).

(j) Exceptions to U.K. CAA AD G-2022-0018

    (1) Where U.K. CAA AD G-2022-0018 refers to its effective date, 
this AD requires using the effective date of this AD.
    (2) The ``Remarks'' section of U.K. CAA AD G-2022-0018 does not 
apply to this AD.
    (3) Where paragraph (2) of U.K. CAA AD G-2022-0018 refers to 
``discrepancies (i.e. cracks or other adverse findings),'' replace 
the text ``discrepancies (i.e. cracks or other adverse findings),'' 
with ``any cracking.''
    (4) Where U.K. CAA AD G-2022-0018 refers to ASB.32-A189, this AD 
requires using BAE Systems (Operations) Limited Alert Service 
Bulletin ASB.32-A189, dated September 16, 2022.

(k) No Reporting Requirement

    Although BAE Systems (Operations) Limited Alert Service Bulletin 
ASB.32-A189, dated September 16, 2022, specifies to submit certain 
information to the manufacturer, this AD does not include that 
requirement.

(l) Additional AD Provisions

    The following provisions also apply to this AD:
    (1) Alternative Methods of Compliance (AMOCs): The Manager, 
International Validation Branch, FAA, has the authority to approve 
AMOCs for this AD, if requested using the procedures found in 14 CFR 
39.19. In accordance with 14 CFR 39.19, send your request to your 
principal inspector or responsible Flight Standards Office, as 
appropriate. If sending information directly to the International
