SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2000-26-03, amendment 39-12052, was published in the Federal Register on December 28, 2000 (65 FR 82262). The AD requires new wiring modifications for the engine and auxiliary power unit (APU) fire detection system.

As published, AD 2000-26-03 incorrectly substituted a nonaffected group of airplanes for an affected group. Specifically, the AD substituted Model A300 B2 and B4 series airplanes for Model A310 series airplanes. The NPRM for this AD correctly identified the affected airplanes.

Since no other part of the regulatory information has been changed, the final rule is not being republished in the Federal Register.

The effective date of this AD remains February 1, 2001.

In AD 2000-26-03, amendment 39-12052, make the following corrections:

1. On page 82262, in the first column, the subject heading should read “Airworthiness Directives; Airbus Model A310 Series Airplanes, and Model A30A300 B4-600, A300 B4-600R, and A300 F4-600R (A300-600) Series Airplanes.”

2. On page 82262, in the first column, under the heading Summary, in the fourth line, “A300 B2 and B4” should read “A310.”

3. On page 82262, in the second column, under the heading Cost Impact, in the second line of the first paragraph, “A300 B2 and B4” should read “A310.”

§ 39.13

[Corrected]

4. On page 82262, in the third column, the applicability of AD 2000-26-03 is corrected to read as follows:
