2018-23031. Airworthiness Directives; Bombardier, Inc., Airplanes

AGENCY:

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

ACTION:

Final rule.

SUMMARY:

We are superseding Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2016-24-03, which applied to certain Bombardier, Inc., Model DHC-8-400 series airplanes. AD 2016-24-03 required repetitive detailed inspections of barrel nuts and cradles, a check of the bolt torque of the preload indicating (PLI) washers, and corrective actions if necessary. This AD retains the requirements of AD 2016-24-03 and requires modifying the airplane by installing a sealing disk to a certain location and replacing certain barrel nuts. This AD was prompted by reports of cracked and corroded barrel nuts found at the mid-spar location of the horizontal-stabilizer-to-vertical-stabilizer attachment joint, and the issuance of new service information that includes a terminal modification. We are issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.

DATES:

This AD is effective November 28, 2018.

The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by reference of certain publications listed in this AD as of November 28, 2018.

The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by reference of certain other publications listed in this AD as of January 12, 2017 (81 FR 88623, December 8, 2016).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Discussion

We issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR part 39 to supersede AD 2016-24-03, Amendment 39-18720 (81 FR 88623, December 8, 2016) (“AD 2016-24-03”). AD 2016-24-03 applied to certain Bombardier, Inc., Model DHC-8-400 series airplanes. The NPRM published in the Federal Register on March 9, 2018 (83 FR 10408). The NPRM was prompted by reports of cracked and corroded barrel nuts found at the mid-spar location of the horizontal-stabilizer-to-vertical-stabilizer attachment joint, and the issuance of new service information that includes a terminal modification. The NPRM proposed to continue to require repetitive detailed inspections of each barrel nut and cradle, a check of the bolt torque of the PLI washers, and corrective action if necessary. The NPRM also proposed to require modifying the airplane by installing a sealing disk to a certain location and replacing certain barrel nuts. We are issuing this AD to address cracked and corroded barrel nuts, which could compromise the structural integrity of the vertical-stabilizer attachment joints and lead to loss of control of the airplane.

Transport Canada Civil Aviation (TCCA), which is the aviation authority for Canada, has issued Canadian AD CF-2015-13R1, dated June 26, 2017 (referred to after this as the Mandatory Continuing Airworthiness Information, or “the MCAI”), to correct an unsafe condition for certain Bombardier, Inc., Model DHC-8-400 series airplanes. The MCAI states:

There has been one in-service report of a cracked and corroded barrel nut, part number (P/N) DSC228-12, found at the mid-spar location of the horizontal stabilizer to vertical stabilizer attachment joint. There have also been two other reports of corroded barrel nuts found at mid-spar locations.

Preliminary investigation determined that the cracking is initiated by corrosion. Further investigation confirmed that the corrosion was caused by inadequate cadmium plating on the barrel nuts. Failure of the barrel nuts could compromise the structural integrity of the joint and could lead to loss of control of the aeroplane.

The original version of this [Canadian] AD was issued to mandate the initial and repetitive inspections of the barrel nuts [and cradles for cracks and corrosion] at each of the horizontal stabilizer to vertical stabilizer attachment joints.

Revision 1 of this [Canadian] AD is issued to terminate the repetitive inspection requirement by requiring the incorporation of a modification to install a sealing disc at the middle spar location of the horizontal stabilizer to vertical stabilizer attachment joint, and the replacement of the DSC228 series barrel nuts with B0203073 series barrel nuts that are more resistant to corrosion. The applicability has been changed to account for the introduction of the modifications in production.

You may examine the MCAI in the AD docket on the internet at http://www.regulations.gov by searching for and locating Docket No. FAA-2018-0160.

Comments

We gave the public the opportunity to participate in developing this final rule. The following presents the comment received on the NPRM and the FAA's response.

Request To Refer to New Repair Drawing (RD)

Horizon Air requested that we revise paragraph (h)(1)(i) of the proposed AD to refer to Bombardier RD 8/4-55-1143, Issue 2, dated May 25, 2015 (we referred to Bombardier RD 8/4-55-1143, Issue 1, dated May 21, 2015, as the appropriate source of service information for the repair specified in paragraph (h)(1)(i) of the proposed AD). Horizon Air noted that Bombardier RD 8/4-55-1143, Issue 2, dated May 25, 2015, adds nominal bore diameters to sheets 1-4.

We agree with the commenter's request. Bombardier RD 8/4-55-1143, Issue 2, dated May 25, 2015, clarifies the bore hole diameters for repair but does not otherwise change the substantive requirements of this AD. No additional work is necessary for airplanes on which Bombardier RD 8/4-55-1143, Issue 1, dated May 21, 2015, has already been done. We have revised paragraph (h)(1)(i) of this AD to include Bombardier RD 8/4-55-1143, Issue 2, dated May 25, 2015, as the appropriate service information for repairing corrosion and damage of the bore of the fitting.

Conclusion

We reviewed the relevant data, considered the comment received, and determined that air safety and the public interest require adopting this final rule with the change described previously and minor editorial changes. We have determined that these minor changes:

• Are consistent with the intent that was proposed in the NPRM for addressing the unsafe condition; and
• Do not add any additional burden upon the public than was already proposed in the NPRM.

We also determined that these changes will not increase the economic burden on any operator or increase the scope of this final rule.

Costs of Compliance

We estimate that this AD affects 54 airplanes of U.S. registry. We estimate the following costs to comply with this AD:

Estimated Costs

Action	Labor cost	Parts cost	Cost per product	Cost on U.S. operators
Inspections (retained actions from AD 2016-24-03)	8 work-hours × $85 per hour = $680	$0	$680	$36,720
Sealing disk installation (new action)	4 work-hours × $85 per hour = $340	781	1,121	60,534
Replacement of DSC228 series barrel nuts (new action)	2 work-hours × $85 per hour = $170	2,236	2,406	129,924

We estimate the following costs to do any necessary replacements that would be required based on the results of the inspection. We have no way of determining the number of aircraft that might need these replacements:

On-Condition Costs

Action	Labor cost	Parts cost	Cost per product
Replacement (retained action from AD 2016-24-03)	2 work-hours × $85 per hour = $170	$8,881	$9,051

We have received no definitive data that would enable us to provide cost estimates for the other 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.

This AD is issued in accordance with authority delegated by the Executive Director, Aircraft Certification Service, as authorized by FAA Order 8000.51C. In accordance with that order, issuance of ADs is normally a function of the Compliance and Airworthiness Division, but during this transition period, the Executive Director has delegated the authority to issue ADs applicable to transport category airplanes and associated appliances to the Director of the System Oversight Division.

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.
