Airworthiness Directives; Airbus Airplanes

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

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for all 
Airbus Model A330-200 Freighter, A330-200, A330-300, A340-200, A340-
300, A340-500, and A340-600 series airplanes. This AD was prompted by a 
report of skin disbonding on a composite side panel of a rudder 
installed on an A310 airplane. This AD requires a review of the 
maintenance records of the rudder to determine if any composite side 
shell panel repair has been done; a thermography inspection limited to 
the repair areas or complete side shells, as applicable, to identify 
possible in-service rudder repairs, damages, or fluid ingress; and 
applicable related investigative and corrective actions. We are issuing 
this AD to detect and correct the rudder skin disbonding, which could 
affect the structural integrity of the rudder, and could result in 
reduced controllability of the airplane.

DATES: This AD becomes effective January 4, 2016.
    The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by 
reference of certain publications listed in this AD as of January 4, 
2016.

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 all Airbus Model A330-200 
Freighter, A330-200, A330-300, A340-200, A340-300, A340-500, and A340-
600 series airplanes. The NPRM published in the Federal Register on 
December 29, 2014 (79 FR 77972).
    The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), which is the Technical 
Agent for the Member States of the European Union, has issued EASA 
Airworthiness Directive 2014-0033, dated February 4, 2014 (referred to 
after this as the Mandatory Continuing Airworthiness Information, or 
``the MCAI''), to correct an unsafe condition for all Airbus Model 
A330-200 Freighter, A330-200, A330-300, A340-200, A340-300, A340-500, 
and A340-600 series airplanes. The MCAI states:

    A case of skin disbonding was reported on a composite side panel 
of a rudder installed on an A310 aeroplane.
    The investigation results revealed that this disbonding started 
from a skin panel area previously repaired in-service in accordance 
with the Structural Repair Manual (SRM).
    The initial damage has been identified as a disbonding between 
the core and skin of the repaired area. This damage may not be 
visually detectable and likely propagates during normal operation 
due to the variation of pressure during ground-air-ground cycles.
    Composite rudder side shell panels are also installed on A330 
and A340 aeroplanes, which may have been repaired in-service using a 
similar method.
    This condition, if not detected and corrected, could affect the 
structural integrity of the rudder, possibly resulting in reduced 
control of the aeroplane.
    For the reasons described above, this [EASA] AD requires a one-
time thermography inspection of a repaired rudder or a rudder whose 
maintenance records are incomplete and, depending on findings, 
accomplishment of applicable corrective and follow-up actions 
[including repetitive inspections].

    The related investigative actions in this AD include, as 
applicable, an ultrasonic inspection, an elasticity laminate checker 
inspection, a tap test inspection, detailed inspections, and 
thermography inspections, and ventilation of the core. The repetitive 
inspections include detailed inspections and thermography inspections. 
The corrective actions in this AD include repairs.
    The compliance time for the related investigative actions is before 
further flight after accomplishing the applicable inspection required 
by paragraph (g)(1) or (g)(2)(ii) of this AD.
    The intervals for the repetitive inspections are either 900 flight 
hours or 1,000 flight cycles, depending on the applicable conditions 
identified in the service information.
    The compliance times for the corrective actions range, depending on 
the applicable conditions identified in the service information, from 
before further flight to within 4,500 flight cycles but not to exceed 
24 months after accomplishing the applicable inspection required by 
paragraph (g)(1) or (g)(2)(ii) of this AD.
    You may examine the MCAI in the AD docket on the Internet at <a href="http://www.regulations.gov/#!documentDetail">http://www.regulations.gov/#!documentDetail</a>;D=FAA-2014-0928-0002.

Comments

    We gave the public the opportunity to participate in developing 
this AD. The following presents the comments received on the NPRM (79 
FR 77972, December 29, 2014) and the FAA's response to each comment.

Request To Use the Latest Service Information

    American Airlines (AAL) and Delta Airlines (DAL) requested that we 
revise the NPRM (79 FR 77972, December 29, 2014) to cite the latest 
service information.
    We agree with the commenters' request. Airbus has issued Airbus 
Service Bulletin A330-55-3043, Revision 1, dated August 20, 2014, 
Airbus Service Bulletin A340-55-4039, Revision 1, dated August 20, 
2014, and Airbus Service Bulletin A340-55-5007,

[[Page 73961]]

Revision 1, dated August 20, 2014. The new service information requires 
no additional work, and there are no new actions required by this AD. 
We have updated the AD with the latest service information, and we have 
also added a credit paragraph for previous actions done before the 
effective date of this AD using the service information cited in the 
NPRM (79 FR 77972, December 29, 2014).

Request To Clarify the Structural Repair Manual Repairs That Are 
Affected

    AAL requested that the NPRM (79 FR 77972, December 29, 2014) 
clarify the specific structural repair manual (SRM) repairs that are 
affected. AAL stated that paragraph (j) of the proposed AD states 
specific serial number ranges that are not affected by the AD provided 
that it is determined that no repair has been accomplished on the 
composite side shell panel of that rudder since first installation on 
the airplane. AAL believes this last sentence is too broad and not in 
line with the intent of the service information requirements. AAL 
commented that stating no repair has been accomplished limits 
acceptable repairs covered by an Airbus repair design approval sheet, 
designated engineering representative repairs, and other SRM repairs 
not affected by the improper practices that are the subject of the 
NPRM. AAL stated that paragraphs (g)(1) and paragraph (l) of the 
proposed AD list the affected SRM repairs in the service information 
figures.
    We agree with the commenter's request. We have revised paragraph 
(j) of this AD to clarify the specific repairs accomplished as 
described in the SRM procedures identified in Figure A-GBBAA (Sheet 01 
and 02) or Figure A-GBCAA (Sheet 02) of the service information 
specified in paragraphs (g)(1)(i) through (g)(1)(iii) of this AD, as 
applicable.

Request To Add the Manufacturer Part Number

    DAL requested that the NPRM (79 FR 77972, December 29, 2014) 
include the manufacturer part numbers of the rudder serial numbers 
specified in paragraph (j), which provides only a list of rudder serial 
numbers not affected by the requirements of paragraphs (g) and (h) of 
the proposed AD. DAL commented that in the event of future aircraft 
acquisitions or rudder (component only) purchases, operators will need 
the manufacturer part numbers associated with the listed serial numbers 
to determine AD applicability.
    We disagree with the commenter's request to add part numbers to 
paragraph (j) of this AD. The rudder serial number, regardless of the 
part number, is the key to identifying whether the rudder is not 
affected. Only rudders that have certain serial numbers that meet the 
conditions specified in paragraph (j) of this AD are exempt from the 
actions required by paragraphs (g) and (h) of this AD. Airbus has 
informed us that rudders with the same manufacturer part number might 
or might not be affected; it is the serial number that determines 
whether it is an affected rudder. We have not changed the AD in this 
regard.

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:
    <bullet> Are consistent with the intent that was proposed in the 
NPRM (79 FR 77972, December 29, 2014) for correcting the unsafe 
condition; and
    <bullet> Do not add any additional burden upon the public than was 
already proposed in the NPRM (79 FR 77972, December 29, 2014).
    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

    Airbus has issued the following service information:
    <bullet> Airbus Service Bulletin A330-55-3043, Revision 1, dated 
August 20, 2014.
    <bullet> Airbus Service Bulletin A340-55-4039, Revision 1, dated 
August 20, 2014.
    <bullet> Airbus Service Bulletin A340-55-5007, Revision 1, dated 
August 20, 2014.
    The service information describes procedures for a review of the 
maintenance records of the rudder to determine if any composite side 
shell panel repair has been done; a thermography inspection limited to 
the repair areas or complete side shells, as applicable, to identify 
possible in-service rudder repairs, damages, or fluid ingress; and 
applicable related investigative and corrective actions. 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 of this AD.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this AD affects 55 airplanes of U.S. registry.
    We also estimate that it would take about 45 work-hours per product 
to comply with the basic requirements of this AD. The average labor 
rate is $85 per work-hour. Required parts would cost about $0 per 
product. Based on these figures, we estimate the cost of this AD on 
U.S. operators to be $210,375, or $3,825 per product.
    We have received no definitive data that would enable us to provide 
cost estimates for the on-condition actions specified in this AD.

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.

[[Page 73962]]

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.
