Airworthiness Directives; The Boeing Company Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: We are superseding an existing airworthiness directive (AD) 
for certain The Boeing Company Model 757 airplanes equipped with Rolls-
Royce RB211-535E engines. That AD currently requires repetitive 
inspections for signs of damage of the aft hinge fittings and 
attachment bolts of the thrust reversers, and related investigative and 
corrective actions if necessary. The existing AD also provides for an 
optional terminating modification for the repetitive inspections. For 
certain airplanes, this new AD adds a one-time inspection of the 
washers installed under the attachment bolts of the aft hinge fittings 
for correct installation sequence, and reinstallation if necessary. 
This new AD also adds an option for installing a redesigned aft hinge 
fitting with the trim already done, instead of trimming an existing or 
new hinge fitting, which is included in the existing optional 
terminating modification. This AD was prompted by reports of 
incorrectly installed washers under the attachment bolts of the aft 
hinge fittings of the thrust reversers. We are issuing this AD to 
prevent failure of the attachment bolts and consequent separation of a 
thrust reverser from the airplane during flight, which could result in 
structural damage to the airplane.

DATES: This AD is effective May 15, 2013.
    The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by 
reference of certain publications listed in the AD as of May 15, 2013.
    The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by 
reference of certain other publications listed in this AD as of August 
6, 2008 (73 FR 37786, July 2, 2008).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Discussion

    We issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR 
part 39 to supersede AD 2008-13-20, Amendment 39-15583 (73 FR 37786, 
July 2, 2008). That AD applies to the specified products. The NPRM 
published in the Federal Register August 16, 2012 (77 FR 49396). That 
NPRM proposed to continue to require repetitive inspections for signs 
of damage of the aft hinge fittings and attachment bolts of the thrust 
reversers, and related investigative and corrective actions if 
necessary. That NPRM also proposed to continue to provide for an 
optional terminating modification for the repetitive inspections. For 
certain airplanes, that NPRM proposed to add a one-time inspection of 
the washers installed under the attachment bolts of the aft hinge 
fittings for correct installation sequence, and reinstallation if 
necessary. That NPRM also proposed to add an option for installing a 
redesigned aft hinge fitting with the trim already done, instead of 
trimming an existing or new hinge fitting, which is included in the 
existing optional terminating modification.

Comments

    We gave the public the opportunity to participate in developing 
this AD. The following presents the comments received on the proposal 
(77 FR 49396, August 16, 2012) and the FAA's response to each comment.

Support for the NPRM (77 FR 49396, August 16, 2012)

    Boeing concurred with the content of the NPRM (77 FR 49396, August 
16, 2012).
    FedEx Express stated that it is accomplishing the actions specified 
in the NPRM (77 FR 49396, August 16, 2012), and determined that its 
regular maintenance check schedule is not adversely affected by the 
specified actions.

Request To Address Effects of NPRM (77 FR 49396, August 16, 2012) on 
Winglets

    Aviation Partners Boeing (APB) stated that it has reviewed the NPRM 
(77 FR 49396, August 16, 2012), and Boeing Special Attention Service 
Bulletin 757-54-0049, Revision 1, dated September 23, 2009, and 
Revision 2, dated July 27, 2011; and Boeing Special Attention Service 
Bulletin 757-54-0050, Revision 1, dated October 7, 2009, and Revision 
2, dated July 27, 2011; and has determined that the installation of 
winglets, per Supplemental Type Certificate (STC) ST01518SE, ``does not 
affect them.''
    We infer that APB means the installation of these winglets does not 
affect accomplishing the NPRM (77 FR 49396, August 16, 2012). We agree 
with the commenter and have determined that this AD should clarify the 
procedures to address these APB winglets. We have added a new paragraph 
(c)(2) to this AD to state that the installation of STC ST01518SE 
(<a href="http://rgl.faa.gov/Regulatory_and_Guidance_Library/rgstc.nsf/0/48E13CDFBBC32CF4862576A4005D308B?OpenDocument&Highlight=st01518se">http://rgl.faa.gov/Regulatory_and_Guidance_Library/rgstc.nsf/0/48E13CDFBBC32CF4862576A4005D308B?OpenDocument&Highlight=st01518se</a>) does 
not affect the ability to accomplish the actions required by this AD. 
For airplanes on which STC ST01518SE is installed, a ``change in 
product'' alternative method of compliance (AMOC) approval request is 
not necessary to comply with the requirements of section 39.17 of the

[[Page 21237]]

Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR 39.17). For all other AMOC 
requests, the operator must request approval according to paragraph (n) 
of this AD.

Request To Withdraw the NPRM (77 FR 49396, August 16, 2012)

    American Airlines (AAL) stated that the existing FAA AD 2008-13-20, 
Amendment 39-15583 (73 FR 37786, July 2, 2008), is sufficient to 
correct the unsafe condition identified in the NPRM (77 FR 49396, 
August 16, 2012). AAL noted that if an operator deviated from the 
fastener stack-up in Figures 11 and 12 of Boeing Special Attention 
Service Bulletin 757-54-0049, dated July 16, 2007, it should be dealt 
with on a case-by-case basis, and not by issuing an industry-wide 
requirement.
    Although AAL did not make a specific request, we infer that it 
wants the NPRM (77 FR 49396, August 16, 2012) withdrawn. We agree that 
operators with airplanes on which the subject modification has been 
done must accomplish a one-time inspection and corrective action 
because the washers may have been installed backwards. However, we do 
not agree that improper installation of the washers using the 
procedures in Boeing Special Attention Service Bulletin 757-54-0049, 
dated July 16, 2007, should be dealt with on a case-by-case basis.
    Improper installation would recreate the unsafe condition, which 
must be addressed by doing the actions required by this AD. In 
addition, although the correct part number for the incorrect washer 
name of ``plain washer'' is identified in Boeing Special Attention 
Service Bulletin 757-54-0049, dated July 16, 2007, information for 
substituting other ``plain washers'' is also provided by referring to 
the additional guidance specified in the Boeing 757 Structural Repair 
Manual. Therefore, we are issuing this AD without further delay, in 
order to eliminate the identified unsafe condition of incorrectly 
installed washers under the attachment bolts of the aft hinge fittings 
of the thrust reversers.

Request To Accomplish Certain Steps in the Service Information Out of 
Sequence

    AAL asked that it be allowed to accomplish certain steps in the 
referenced service information out of sequence. AAL stated that Boeing 
Special Attention Service Bulletin 757-54-0049, Revision 2, dated July 
27, 2011, removed Note 1 from the Work Instructions, and Note 1 allowed 
operators to change the sequence of steps for the specified procedures. 
AAL noted that if it is not allowed to accomplish certain steps out of 
sequence, it will be prevented from accomplishing the actions in that 
service bulletin in a timely manner. AAL added that the inspection and 
modification instructions are straightforward and are fundamental 
maintenance procedures.
    We agree that certain steps in the Work Instructions of Boeing 
Special Attention Service Bulletin 757-54-0049, Revision 2, dated July 
27, 2011, could be accomplished out of sequence; however, certain other 
steps cannot. We suggest that AAL provide supporting data to Boeing to 
substantiate that the service information can be revised to permit 
accomplishing those steps out of sequence when appropriate. AAL may 
also submit a request for approval of an alternative method of 
compliance (AMOC), as specified in paragraph (n) of this AD, to use for 
accomplishing those steps out of sequence. We have not changed the AD 
in this regard.

Request To Revise Certain Instructions in the NPRM (77 FR 49396, August 
16, 2012)

    AAL asked that only the work steps critical to correcting the 
unsafe condition be mandated by the AD. AAL stated that ``open and 
close'' are part of typical maintenance that is fundamental to a 
qualified maintenance facility; therefore, the instructions on how an 
operator gets to the steps should not be mandated but left to the 
operator's discretion as the best method to use to address the existing 
unsafe condition.
    We agree that certain steps in the Work Instructions of Boeing 
Special Attention Service Bulletin 757-54-0049, Revision 2, dated July 
27, 2011, may not need to be mandated; however, AAL did not provide 
supporting data of which steps in particular. We infer that AAL is 
asking to exclude the instructions mandated for access and close. 
Therefore, we have changed paragraph (g) of this AD to specify 
accomplishing Part II of the service information. We have also changed 
paragraph (l) of this AD to specify accomplishing Part IV of the 
service information for the inspection, and Part III of the service 
information for the preventive modification. These changes exclude 
Parts I and V of the service information which contain the instructions 
for access and close.

Conclusion

    We reviewed the relevant data, considered the comments received, 
and determined that air safety and the public interest require adopting 
the AD with the change described previously. We also determined that 
this change 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 389 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 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.

List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 39

    Air transportation, Aircraft, Aviation safety, Incorporation by 
reference, Safety.

Adoption of the Amendment

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

PART 39--AIRWORTHINESS DIRECTIVES

0
1. The authority citation for part 39 continues to read as follows:

    Authority:  49 U.S.C. 106(g), 40113, 44701.


Sec.  39.13  [Amended]

0
2. The FAA amends Sec.  39.13 by removing airworthiness directive (AD) 
2008-13-20, Amendment 39-15583 (73 FR 37786, July 2, 2008), and adding 
the following new AD:

2013-04-04 The Boeing Company: Amendment 39-17361; Docket No. FAA-
2012-0809; Directorate Identifier 2011-NM-135-AD.

(a) Effective Date

    This AD is effective May 15, 2013.

(b) Affected ADs

    This AD supersedes AD 2008-13-20, Amendment 39-15583 (73 FR 
37786, July 2, 2008).

(c) Applicability

    (1) This AD applies to The Boeing Company Model 757-200, -200CB, 
-200PF, and -300 series airplanes; certificated in any category;
