Discussion
On December 22, 2016, we issued AD 2017-01-01, Amendment 39-18768
(82 FR 3146, January 11, 2017), for all RR RB211-Trent 970-84, RB211-
Trent 970B-84, RB211-Trent 972-84, RB211-Trent 972B-84, RB211-Trent
977-84, RB211-Trent 977B-84, and RB211-Trent 980-84 turbofan engines.
AD 2017-01-01 required inspections of the LPT exhaust case and support
assembly or TBH to detect cracks or damage. AD 2017-01-01 resulted from
RR performing additional analysis of inspection results and determining
that the existing inspections need to be modified. We issued AD 2017-
01-01 to
[[Page 18850]]
prevent failure of the TBH, resulting in damage to the engine and to
the airplane.
Actions Since AD 2017-01-01 Was Issued
Since we issued AD 2017-01-01, we learned that certain references
to certain service bulletins in AD 2017-01-01 are incorrect. In the
fourth row, second column of Table 2 to paragraph (f) of AD 2017-01-01,
the applicable Alert Non-Modification Service Bulletin (NMSB) states
``RB.211-72-AJ101'' but the correct reference is ``RB.211-72-AH154.''
In addition, two references to ``NMSB RB.211-72-J024'' in Table 1 and
Table 2 to paragraph (f) of AD 2017-01-01 should say ``SB RB.211-72-
J024''. We have corrected those references in this AD.
Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51
RR has issued Alert NMSB RB.211-72-AG971, Revision 2, dated May 5,
2016; Alert NMSB RB.211-72-AH154, Revision 5, dated May 5, 2016; Alert
NMSB RB.211-72-AJ101, dated May 5, 2016; and Service Bulletin (SB)
RB.211-72-J055, dated March 22, 2016. RR Alert NMSB RB.211-72-AG971
describes procedures for on-wing or in-shop inspection of the TBH mount
lug run-outs. RR Alert NMSB RB.211-72-AH154 describes procedures for an
on-wing or in-shop inspection of a pre-mod 72-J024 TBH. RR Alert NMSB
RB.211-72-AJ101 describes procedures for on-wing or in-shop inspection
of a post-mod 72-J024 TBH. RR SB RB.211-72-J055 describes procedures
for modifying the engine by introducing a revised TBH. 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.
FAA's Determination
We are issuing this AD because we evaluated all the relevant
information and determined the unsafe condition described previously is
likely to exist or develop in other products of the same type design.
AD Requirements
This AD requires inspections of the LPT exhaust case and support
assembly or TBH to detect cracks or damage.
FAA's Justification and Determination of the Effective Date
No domestic operators use this product. Therefore, we find that
notice and opportunity for prior public comment are unnecessary and
that good cause exists for making this amendment effective in less than
30 days.
Costs of Compliance
We estimate that this AD affects 0 engines installed on airplanes
of U.S. registry. We estimate the following costs to comply with this
AD:
Estimated Costs
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cost on U.S.
Action Labor cost Parts cost Cost per product operators
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Inspection of the TBH............. 8 work-hours x $85 $0 $680 per inspection $0
per hour = $680. cycle.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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
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 to the extent
that it justifies making a regulatory distinction, 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

reference, Safety.
Adoption of the Amendment
Accordingly, under the authority delegated to me by the
Administrator, the FAA amends part 39 of the Federal Aviation
