    SUMMARY: This document corrects a typographical error that appeared in 
    airworthiness directive (AD) 98-11-19 that was published in the Federal 
    Register on May 28, 1998 (63 FR 29096). The typographical error in the 
    applicability statement of the AD resulted in a reference to an engine 
    model that does not exist. This AD is applicable to certain Airbus 
    Model A310 and A300-600 series airplanes. This AD requires a visual 
    inspection to detect cracks in the aft mount beam assembly of the 
    engine; and replacement of any cracked beam with a new beam or beam 
    assembly; and a fluorescent penetrant inspection to detect cracks in 
    the aft mount beam assembly of the engine, and various follow-on 
    actions.
    
    DATES: Effective July 2, 1998.

    SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Airworthiness Directive (AD) 98-11-19, 
    amendment 39-10544, applicable to certain Airbus Model A310 and A300-
    600 series airplanes, was published in the Federal Register on May 28, 
    1998 (63 FR 29096). That AD requires a visual inspection to detect 
    cracks in the aft mount beam assembly of the engine, and replacement of 
    any cracked beam with a new beam or beam assembly. That AD also 
    requires a fluorescent penetrant inspection to detect cracks in the aft 
    mount beam assembly of the engine, and various follow-on actions.
        As published, that AD contained a typographical error in the 
    applicability statement: the applicability statement indicated that the 
    AD is applicable to
    
    [[Page 66980]]
    
    Model A310 and A300-600 series airplanes, equipped with Pratt & Whitney 
    engines of various models, including Model PW4151. The designation 
    should be Model PW4152. The engine model designated PW4151 in the 
    applicability statement of the published AD does not exist.
        Since no other part of the regulatory information has been changed, 
    the final rule is not being republished.
        The effective date of this AD remains July 2, 1998.
