Federal Register Abstract
The FAA is revising an existing airworthiness directive (AD) that applies to all Boeing Model 747 series airplanes. That AD currently requires that the FAA-approved maintenance inspection program be revised to include inspections that will give no less than the required damage tolerance rating for each structural significant item, and repair of cracked structure. We issued that AD to ensure the continued structural integrity of the entire fleet of Model 747 series airplanes. This new AD clarifies the applicability of the existing AD by specifying which Boeing Model 747 airplanes are affected by this AD because we have determined that certain new variants that have not yet been certified will not be subject to the requirements of this AD. This AD results from a report of incidents involving fatigue cracking in transport category airplanes that are approaching or have exceeded their design service objective. We are issuing this AD to ensure the continued structural integrity of all Boeing Model 747-100, 747-100B, 747-100B SUD, 747-200B, 747-200C, 747-200F, 747-300, 747-400, 747-400D, 747-400F, 747SR, and 747SP series airplanes.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The FAA is revising an existing airworthiness directive (AD)
that applies to all Boeing Model 747 series airplanes. That AD
currently requires that the FAA-approved maintenance inspection program
be revised to include inspections that will give no less than the
required damage tolerance rating for each structural significant item,
and repair of cracked structure. We issued that AD to ensure the
continued structural integrity of the entire fleet of Model 747 series
airplanes. This new AD clarifies the applicability of the existing AD
by specifying which Boeing Model 747 airplanes are affected by this AD
because we have determined that certain new variants that have not yet
been certified will not be subject to the requirements of this AD. This
AD results from a report of incidents involving fatigue cracking in
transport category airplanes that are approaching or have exceeded
their design service objective. We are issuing this AD to ensure the
continued structural integrity of all Boeing Model 747-100, 747-100B,
747-100B SUD, 747-200B, 747-200C, 747-200F, 747-300, 747-400, 747-400D,
747-400F, 747SR, and 747SP series airplanes.
DATES: Effective January 22, 2008.
The incorporation by reference of Boeing Document D6-35022,
``Supplemental Structural Inspection Document (SSID) for Model 747
Airplanes,'' Revision G, dated December 2000, was approved previously
by the Director of the Federal Register as of May 12, 2004 (69 FR
18250, April 7, 2004).
The incorporation by reference of Boeing Document No. D6-35022,
Volumes 1 and 2, ``Supplemental Structural Inspection Document (SSID)
for Model 747 Airplanes,'' Revision E, dated June 17, 1993, was
approved previously by the Director of the Federal Register as of
September 12, 1994 (59 FR 41233, August 11, 1994).
The incorporation by reference of Boeing Document No. D6-35655,
``Supplemental Structural Inspection Document for 747-100SR,'' dated
April 2, 1986, was approved previously by the Director of the Federal
Register as of August 10, 1994 (59 FR 37933, July 26, 1994).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Discussion
On March 24, 2004, we issued AD 2004-07-22, amendment 39-13566 (69
FR 18250, April 7, 2004). A correction of that AD was published in the
Federal Register on May 3, 2004 (69 FR 24063). AD 2004-07-22 applies to
all Boeing Model 747 series airplanes. That AD requires that the FAA-
approved maintenance inspection program be revised to include
inspections that will give no less than the required damage tolerance
rating for each structural significant item, and repair of cracked
structure. That AD resulted from a report of incidents involving
fatigue cracking in transport category airplanes that are approaching
or have exceeded their design service objective. We issued that AD to
ensure the continued structural integrity of the entire fleet of Model
747 series airplanes.
Actions Since Existing AD Was Issued
Since we issued AD 2004-07-22, Boeing has announced the production
of additional Model 747 variants. Although they have not yet been
certified, the new variants (Model 747-8 and -8F series airplanes) have
a certification basis that will alleviate the safety issues addressed
by AD 2004-07-22. All of the supplemental structural inspections
required by AD 2004-07-22 will be included in the Airworthiness
Limitations Section of the Boeing 747-8/8F Maintenance Planning Data
Document.
Because AD 2004-07-22 currently applies to ``all Boeing Model 747
series airplanes,'' these additional Model 747
[[Page 1053]]
variants will be required to do the actions mandated by that AD, once
they are certified. Therefore, we must clarify the applicability to
specify only the airplanes that are affected by this AD.
FAA's Determination and Requirements of This AD
The unsafe condition described previously is likely to exist or
develop on other airplanes of the same type design. For this reason, we
are issuing this AD to revise AD 2004-07-22. This new AD retains the
requirements of the existing AD. This AD also clarifies the
applicability of the existing AD.
Change to Existing AD
Since we issued AD 2004-07-22, the AD format has been revised, and
certain paragraphs have been rearranged. As a result, the corresponding
paragraph identifiers have changed in this AD, as listed in the
following table:
Revised Paragraph Identifiers
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Corresponding requirement in
Requirement in AD 2004-07-22 AD 2004-07-22 R1
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Paragraph (a)............................ Paragraph (f).
Paragraph (b)............................ Paragraph (g).
Paragraph (c)............................ Paragraph (h).
Paragraph (d)............................ Paragraph (i).
(This paragraph was mis-lettered as (a)
in the Federal Register.).
Paragraph (e)............................ Paragraph (j).
Paragraph (f)............................ Paragraph (k).
------------------------------------------------------------------------
We have also removed Note 1 of AD 2004-07-22 from this AD. The
information in that note is now included in the Federal Aviation
Regulations (14 CFR part 39) and it is not necessary to include it in
this AD. We have re-numbered the notes in AD 2004-07-22 R1 accordingly.
Costs of Compliance
We estimate that this AD affects about 165 airplanes of U.S.
registry. The requirements of this AD add no additional economic
burden. The current costs for this AD are repeated for the convenience
of affected operators, as follows:
We estimate that the actions required by AD 2004-07-22 and retained
in this AD take up to 6,825 work-hours per product. The average labor
rate is $80 per work hour. Based on these figures, we estimate the cost
of this AD to U.S. operators to be up to $90,090,000 or up to $546,000
per product.
The number of work hours, as indicated above, is presented as if
the accomplishment of the actions required by AD 2004-07-22 and
retained in this AD are to be conducted as ``stand alone'' actions.
However, in actual practice, these actions for the most part will be
accomplished coincidentally or in combination with normally scheduled
airplane inspections and other maintenance program tasks. Therefore,
the actual number of necessary additional work hours will be minimal in
many instances. Additionally, any costs associated with special
airplane scheduling will be minimal.
FAA's Determination of the Effective Date
No airplane variant that we had previously excluded from the
applicability of this AD is currently on the U.S. Register. Therefore,
providing notice and opportunity for public comment is unnecessary
before this AD is issued, and this AD may be made effective in less
than 30 days after it is published in the Federal Register.
Comments Invited
This AD is a final rule that involves requirements affecting flight
safety, and we did not provide you with notice and an opportunity to
provide your comments before it becomes effective. However, we invite
you to send any written data, views, or arguments about this AD. Send
your comments to an address listed under the ADDRESSES section. Include
``Docket No. FAA-2008-0411; Directorate Identifier 2007-NM-291-AD'' at
the beginning of your comments. We specifically invite comments on the
overall regulatory, economic, environmental, and energy aspects of this
AD. We will consider all comments received by the closing date and may
amend this AD because of those comments.
We will post all comments we receive, without change, to <a href="http://www.regulations.gov">http://www.regulations.gov</a>, including any personal information you provide. We
will also post a report summarizing each substantive verbal contact we
receive about 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 the regulation:
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); and
3. 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.
We prepared a regulatory evaluation of the estimated costs to
comply with this AD and placed it in the AD docket. See the ADDRESSES
section for a location to examine the regulatory evaluation.

Requirements of AD 2004-07-22
Inspection Program
(f) For Model 747-100SR series airplanes having line numbers
346, 351, 420, 426, 427, and 601: Within 1 year after August 10,
1994 (the effective date of AD 94-15-12, amendment 39-8983, which
was superseded by AD 2004-07-22), incorporate a revision into the
FAA-approved maintenance inspection program that provides no less
than the required damage tolerance rating (DTR) for each structural
significant item (SSI) listed in Boeing Document No. D6-35655,
``Supplemental Structural Inspection Document (SSID) for 747-
100SR,'' dated April 2, 1986. The revision to the maintenance
program must include and be implemented per the procedures specified
in Sections 5.0 and 6.0 of the SSID D6-35655. Revision to the
maintenance program shall be per the SSID D6-35655, dated April 2,
1986, until Revision G of the SSID D6-35022 is incorporated into the
FAA-approved maintenance or inspection program per the requirements
of paragraph (h) of this AD.
Note 2: For the purposes of this AD, an SSI is defined as a
principal structural element (PSE). A PSE is a structural element
that contributes significantly to the carrying of flight, ground, or
pressurization loads, and whose integrity is essential in
maintaining the overall structural integrity of the airplane.
(g) For airplanes listed in Boeing Document No. D6-35022,
Volumes 1 and 2, ``Supplemental Structural Inspection Document
(SSID) for Model 747 Airplanes,'' Revision E, dated June 17, 1993;

747-200C, 747-200F, 747-300, 747-400, 747-400D, 747-400F, 747SR, and
747SP series airplanes: Prior to reaching either of the thresholds
specified in paragraph (i)(1)(i) or (i)(2)(i) of this AD, or within
12 months after May 12, 2004 (the effective date of AD 2004-07-22),
whichever occurs later, incorporate a revision into the FAA-approved
maintenance or inspection program that provides no less than the
required DTR for each SSI listed in Boeing Document No. D6-35022,
``Supplemental Structural Inspection Document,'' Revision G, dated
December 2000 (hereinafter referred to as ``Revision G''). (The
required DTR value for each SSI is listed in Revision G.) The
revision to the maintenance or inspection program shall include and
shall be implemented per the procedures in Section 5.0, ``DTR System
Application'' and Section 6.0, ``SSI Discrepancy Reporting'' of
Revision G, excluding paragraphs 5.1.2; 5.1.6, item 5; 5.1.8; 5.2;
5.2.1; 5.2.2; 5.2.3; and 5.2.4 of Revision G. Under the provisions
of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1980 (44 U.S.C. 3501, et seq.),
the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has approved the
information collection requirements (Section 6.0, ``SSI Discrepancy
Reporting'') contained in this AD and has assigned OMB Control
Number 2120-0056. Upon incorporation of Revision G required by this
paragraph, the revision required by either paragraph (f) or (g) of
this AD, as applicable, may be removed.
Note 3: Operators should note that, although paragraph 5.2 is
referenced in paragraph 5.1.11 of Revision G, paragraph 5.2 is
excluded as a method of compliance with the requirements of this AD.
Initial Inspection
(i) For all Model 747-100, 747-100B, 747-100B SUD, 747-200B,
747-200C, 747-200F, 747-300, 747-400, 747-400D, 747-400F, 747SR, and
747SP series airplanes: Perform an inspection to detect cracks of
all structure identified in Revision G of SSID D6-35022 at the time
specified in paragraph (i)(1), (i)(2), or (i)(3) of this AD, as
applicable.
(1) For wing structure: At the times specified in paragraph
(i)(1)(i) or (i)(1)(ii) of this AD, whichever occurs later.
(i) Prior to the accumulation of 20,000 total flight cycles or
100,000 total flight hours, whichever comes first. Or,
(ii) Within 1,000 flight cycles measured from 12 months after
May 12, 2004.
(2) For all other structure: At the times specified in paragraph
(i)(2)(i) or (i)(2)(ii) of this AD, whichever occurs later.
(i) Prior to the accumulation of 20,000 total flight cycles, or
(ii) Within 1,000 flight cycles measured from 12 months after
May 12, 2004.
(3) For any portion of an SSI that has been replaced with new
structure: At the later of the times specified in paragraph
(i)(3)(i) or (i)(3)(ii) of this AD.
(i) At the times specified in either paragraph (i)(1) or (i)(2)
of this AD, as applicable, or
(ii) Within 10,000 flight cycles after the replacement of the
part with a new part.
Note 4: Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraphs 5.1.2,
5.1.6, item 5, 5.2, 5.2.1, 5.2.2, 5.2.3, and 5.2.4 of the General
Instructions of Revision G, which would permit operators to perform
fleet and rotational sampling inspections to perform inspections on
less than whole airplane fleet sizes and to perform inspections on
substitute airplanes, this AD requires that all airplanes that
exceed the threshold be inspected per Revision G. Although paragraph
5.1.8 of Revision G allows provisions for touch-and-go training
flights, fleet averaging, and 10% escalations of flight cycles to
achieve the required DTR, this AD does not allow for those
provisions.
Note 5: Once the initial inspection has been performed,
operators are required to perform repetitive inspections at the
intervals specified in Revision G in order to remain in compliance
with their maintenance or inspection programs, as revised per
paragraph (h) of this AD.
Repair
(j) Cracked structure found during any inspection required by
this AD shall be repaired, prior to further flight, in accordance
with an FAA-approved method.
Inspection Program for Transferred Airplanes
(k) Before any airplane that is subject to this AD and that has
exceeded the applicable compliance times specified in paragraph (i)
of this AD can be added to an air carrier's operations
specifications, a program for the accomplishment of the inspections
required by this AD must be established per paragraph (k)(1) or
(k)(2) of this AD, as applicable.
(1) For airplanes that have been inspected per this AD, the
inspection of each SSI must be accomplished by the new operator per
the previous operator's schedule and inspection method, or the new
operator's schedule and inspection method, at whichever time would
result in the earlier accomplishment for that SSI inspection. The
compliance time for accomplishment of this inspection must be
measured from the last inspection accomplished by the previous
operator. After each inspection has been performed once, each
subsequent inspection must be performed per the new operator's
schedule and inspection method.
(2) For airplanes that have not been inspected per this AD, the
inspection of each SSI required by this AD must be accomplished
either prior to adding the
[[Page 1055]]
airplane to the air carrier's operations specification, or per a
schedule and an inspection method approved by the Manager, Seattle
Aircraft Certification Office (ACO). After each inspection has been
performed once, each subsequent inspection must be performed per the
new operator's schedule.
Alternative Methods of Compliance (AMOCs)
(l)(1) The Manager, Seattle Aircraft Certification Office (ACO),
FAA, ATTN: Ivan Li, Aerospace Engineer, Airframe Branch, ANM-120S,
FAA, Seattle Aircraft Certification Office, 1601 Lind Avenue, SW.,
Renton, Washington 98057-3356; telephone (425) 917-6437; fax (425)
917-6590; has the authority to approve AMOCs for this AD, if
requested using the procedures found in 14 CFR 39.19.
(2) To request a different method of compliance or a different
compliance time for this AD, follow the procedures in 14 CFR 39.19.
Before using any approved AMOC on any airplane to which the AMOC
applies, notify your appropriate principal inspector (PI) in the FAA
Flight Standards District Office (FSDO), or lacking a PI, your local
FSDO.
(3) An AMOC that provides an acceptable level of safety may be
used for any repair required by this AD, if it is approved by an
Authorized Representative for the Boeing Commercial Airplanes
Delegation Option Authorization Organization who has been authorized
by the Manager, Seattle ACO, to make those findings. For a repair
method to be approved the repair must meet the certification basis
of the airplane and the approval must specifically refer to this AD.
(4) AMOCs approved previously in accordance with AD 94-15-12,
are approved as alternative methods of compliance for the
requirements of paragraphs (f) and (j) of this AD.
(5) AMOCs approved previously in accordance with AD 94-15-18,
are approved as alternative methods of compliance for the
requirements of paragraphs (g) and (j) of this AD.
(6) AMOCs approved previously in accordance with AD 2004-07-22,
are approved as AMOCs for the corresponding provisions of this AD.
