Airworthiness Directives; Bombardier, Inc. Airplanes

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

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain 
Bombardier, Inc. Model DHC-8-400 series airplanes. This AD was prompted 
by reports of cracked and corroded barrel nuts found at the mid-spar 
location of the horizontal-stabilizer-to-vertical-stabilizer attachment 
joint. This AD requires repetitive detailed

[[Page 88624]]

inspections of each barrel nut and cradle, a check of the bolt torque 
of the preload indicating (PLI) washers, and corrective action if 
necessary. We are issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on 
these products.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Discussion

    We issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR 
part 39 by adding an AD that would apply to certain Bombardier, Inc. 
Model DHC-8-400 airplanes. The NPRM published in the Federal Register 
on March 14, 2016 (81 FR 13298) (``the NPRM''). The NPRM was prompted 
by reports of cracked and corroded barrel nuts found at the mid-spar 
location of the horizontal-stabilizer-to-vertical-stabilizer attachment 
joint. The NPRM proposed to require repetitive detailed inspections of 
each barrel nut and cradle, a check of the bolt torque of the PLI 
washers, and corrective action if necessary. We are issuing this AD to 
detect and correct cracked and corroded barrel nuts, which could 
compromise the structural integrity of the vertical-stabilizer 
attachment joints and lead to loss of control of the airplane.
    Transport Canada Civil Aviation (TCCA), which is the aviation 
authority for Canada, issued Canadian Airworthiness Directive CF-2015-
13, dated June 25, 2015 (referred to after this as the Mandatory 
Continuing Airworthiness Information, or ``the MCAI''), to correct an 
unsafe condition for certain Bombardier, Inc. Model DHC-8-400 series 
airplanes. The MCAI states:

    There has been one in-service report of a cracked and corroded 
barrel nut, part number (P/N) DSC228-12, found at the mid-spar 
location of the horizontal stabilizer to vertical stabilizer 
attachment joint. There have also been two other reports of corroded 
barrel nuts found at mid-spar locations.
    Preliminary investigation determined that the cracking is 
initiated by corrosion. The corrosion may have been caused by 
inadequate cadmium plating on the barrel nut. Failure of the barrel 
nuts could compromise the structural integrity of the joint and 
could lead to loss of control of the aeroplane.
    This [Canadian] AD mandates initial and repetitive inspections 
of the barrel nuts [and cradles for cracks and corrosion] at each 
horizontal stabilizer to vertical stabilizer attachment joints.

    Required actions include a bolt preload check of the PLI washers 
and applicable corrective actions (retorque of the bolts and 
replacement of the barrel nut), a detailed inspection of cracked or 
broken barrel nuts for damaged bores of the fittings, replacement of 
barrel nuts, and repair of damage and corrosion.
    You may examine the MCAI in the AD docket on the Internet at http://www.regulations.gov by searching for and locating Docket No. FAA-2016-
4224.

Comments

    We gave the public the opportunity to participate in developing 
this AD. The following presents the comments received on the NPRM and 
the FAA's response to each comment.

Support for the NPRM

    The Air Line Pilots Association, International, and a commenter, 
Lara Gabrys, supported the intent of the NPRM.

Request To Specify Revised Service Information

    The source of service information in the NPRM--Bombardier Alert 
Service Bulletin A84-55-04, Revision A, dated June 2, 2015--has been 
revised. Horizon Air requested that we revise the NPRM to refer to the 
latest version of the service information.
    We agree and have revised this final rule to identify Bombardier 
Alert Service Bulletin A84-55-04, Revision C, dated May 3, 2016, as the 
appropriate source of service information. The revised service 
information clarifies certain conditional actions; the major actions 
remain essentially unchanged. We have also revised paragraph (m) of 
this AD to include all earlier revisions as credit for prior 
accomplishment of the corresponding actions specified in this AD.

Request for Terminating Action

    Commenter Lara Gabrys expressed concern about the unsafe condition 
and the lack of a permanent solution to address it.
    We acknowledge the commenter's concern, and point out that this 
final rule (as also specified in the NPRM) requires that operators 
submit their inspection findings to Bombardier. Then, based on those 
findings, Bombardier plans to develop a permanent solution to address 
the unsafe condition. If terminating action is developed, approved, and 
available, we might consider additional rulemaking. At this time, 
however, we are issuing this final rule as proposed.

Request To Limit Required Actions

    Paragraphs (g)(1), (g)(2), (h)(1)(i), (h)(1)(ii), (i), and (k) of 
the proposed AD specified that certain actions be done in accordance 
with ``the Accomplishment Instructions'' of the referenced service 
information. Noting that ``the Accomplishment Instructions'' include 
paragraphs 3.A., ``Job Set-Up,'' and 3.C., ``Close Out,'' Horizon Air 
requested that the compliance method instead be limited to paragraph 
3.B., ``Procedures''--the only section that corrects the unsafe 
condition. Horizon Air objected to the inclusion of the specified set-
up and close-out procedures, which would restrict the operators' 
ability to perform other maintenance in conjunction with the 
incorporation of the service information.

[[Page 88625]]

    We agree with the request, for the reasons provided by the 
commenter. We have revised paragraphs (g)(1), (g)(2), (h)(1)(i), 
(h)(1)(ii), (i), and (k) of this AD, as well as paragraph (h)(1) of 
this AD, to refer to paragraph 3.B., ``Procedures.''

Clarification of Applicability

    This AD affects Model DHC-8-400, -401, and -402 airplanes. The 
SUMMARY of the NPRM and paragraph (c) of the proposed AD identified the 
affected airplanes as ``Model DHC-8-400 airplanes.'' Model DHC-8-400 
series airplanes consist of Model DHC-8-400, -401, and -402 airplanes 
and correspond to the affected airplanes identified in the MCAI. We 
have therefore revised the SUMMARY to identify the affected airplanes 
as certain ``Model DHC-8-400 series airplanes.'' We also revised 
paragraph (c) of this AD to identify the applicability as ``Model DHC-
8-400, -401, and -402 airplanes'' with serial numbers 4001 and 
subsequent.

Conclusion

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

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    Bombardier, Inc. has issued Alert Service Bulletin A84-55-04, 
Revision C, dated May 3, 2016. The service information describes 
procedures for a detailed inspection and repair for cracks and 
corrosion of the barrel nuts and cradles, a bolt preload check of the 
PLI washers, applicable corrective actions, a detailed inspection and 
repair for corrosion and damage of the bores of the fittings, and 
replacement of the barrel nuts.
    Bombardier, Inc. has also issued Bombardier Repair Drawing (RD) 8/
4-55-1143, Issue 1, dated May 21, 2015. The service information 
describes procedures for repairing corrosion and damage of the fitting 
bore.
    This service information 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.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this AD affects 76 airplanes of U.S. registry.
    We also estimate that it will take about 6 work-hours per product 
to comply with the basic requirements of this AD and 1 work-hour per 
product for reporting. The average labor rate is $85 per work-hour. 
Required parts will cost about $0 per product. Based on these figures, 
we estimate the cost of this AD on U.S. operators to be $45,220, or 
$595 per product.
    In addition, we estimate that any necessary follow-on actions would 
take about 4 work-hours, and require parts costing $8,881, for a cost 
of $9,221 per product. We have no way of determining the number of 
aircraft that might need this action.

Paperwork Reduction Act

    A federal agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not 
required to respond to, nor shall a person be subject to penalty for 
failure to comply with a collection of information subject to the 
requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act unless that collection of 
information displays a current valid OMB control number. The control 
number for the collection of information required by this AD is 2120-
0056. The paperwork cost associated with this AD has been detailed in 
the Costs of Compliance section of this document and includes time for 
reviewing instructions, as well as completing and reviewing the 
collection of information. Therefore, all reporting associated with 
this AD is mandatory. Comments concerning the accuracy of this burden 
and suggestions for reducing the burden should be directed to the FAA 
at 800 Independence Ave. SW., Washington, DC 20591, ATTN: Information 
Collection Clearance Officer, AES-200.

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.
