14 CFR Part 39
[Docket No. 93-CE-61-AD; Amendment 39-9386; AD 95-20-07]
Airworthiness Directives; The New Piper Aircraft, Inc. (Formerly
Piper Aircraft Corporation) PA24, PA28R, PA30, PA32R, PA34, and PA39
Series Airplanes; Correction
AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration, DOT.
[[Page 57334]]
ACTION: Final rule; correction.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This action makes a correction to Airworthiness Directive (AD)
95-20-07 concerning The New Piper Aircraft, Inc. (Piper) PA24, PA28R,
PA30, PA32R, PA34, and PA39 airplanes, which was published in the
Federal Register on October 5, 1995 (60 FR 52073). That publication
incorrectly references who may accomplish the inspections of the left
and right main gear side brace studs. The AD currently requires the
inspection ``* * * by a facility approved by the FAA. * * *'' The
Federal Aviation Administration's intent is to have this inspection
accomplished ``by a facility or person authorized by the FAA. * * *''
This action corrects the AD to reflect this change.
EFFECTIVE DATE: November 17, 1995.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On September 28, 1995, the Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA) issued AD 95-20-07, Amendment 39-9386 (60 FR
52073, October 5, 1995), which applies to Piper PA24, PA28R, PA30,
PA32R, PA34, and PA39 series airplanes. This AD requires repetitively
inspecting (using dye penetrant or magnetic particle methods) the main
gear side brace studs for cracks, and replacing any cracked main side
brace stud.
The AD incorrectly references who may accomplish the inspections of
the left and right main gear side brace studs. AD 95-20-07 currently
requires the inspection ``* * * by a facility approved by the FAA. * *
*'' The Federal Aviation Administration's intent is to have this
inspection accomplished ``by a facility or person authorized by the
FAA. * * *'' This action corrects the AD to reflect this change.
Need for Correction
As published, the final regulations have incorrectly referenced who
can accomplish the main side brace stud inspections. The way the final
regulations are currently written will prevent certain qualified
mechanics from accomplishing the main side brace stud inspections,
which is not the FAA's intent.
Correction of Publication
Accordingly, the publication of October 5, 1995 (60 FR 52073) of
Amendment 39-9386; AD 95-20-07, which was the subject of FR Doc. 95-
24713, is corrected as follows:
In the last line of the third column on page 52073, and continuing
on the first two lines of the first column on page 52074, replace ``* *
* accomplished at a facility that is approved by the FAA to perform
either dye penetrant or magnetic particle inspections'' with ``* * *
accomplished by a facility or persons authorized by the FAA to perform
either dye penetrant or magnetic particle inspections.''
Sec. 39.13 [Corrected]
On page 52075, in the third column, in Sec. 39.13, in lines 8
through 11 of paragraph (a) of AD 95-20-07, replace ``Inspections must
be accomplished by a facility approved by the FAA to accomplish the
applicable inspection method.'' with ``Inspections must be accomplished
by a facility or persons authorized by the FAA to accomplish the
applicable inspection method.''
On page 52077, in the second column, in Sec. 39.13, in lines 4
through 7 of paragraph (c) of AD 95-20-07, replace ``Inspections must
be accomplished by a facility approved by the FAA to accomplish the
applicable inspection method.'' with ``Inspections must be accomplished
by a facility or persons authorized by the FAA to accomplish the
applicable inspection method.''
Issued in Kansas City, Missouri, on November 8, 1995.
