    ACTION: Final rule.
    
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------
    
    SUMMARY: This amendment supersedes an existing airworthiness directive 
    (AD), applicable to all Airbus Model A300 series airplanes (excluding 
    Model A300 B4-600 series airplanes), that currently requires certain 
    structural inspections and modifications. This amendment requires 
    additional structural inspections and modifications that have been 
    identified as necessary to ensure the structural integrity of these 
    airplanes as they approach their economic design goal. This amendment 
    also excludes additional airplanes from the applicability of the AD. 
    The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent degradation of 
    the structural capability of the affected airplanes.
    
    DATES: Effective May 29, 1996. -
        The incorporation by reference of certain publications listed in 
    the regulations is approved by the Director of the Federal Register as 
    of May 29, 1996.
        The incorporation by reference of certain other publications listed 
    in the regulations was approved previously by the Director of the 
    Federal Register as of April 13, 1992 (57 FR 8257, March 3, 1992).
    
    ADDRESSES: The service information referenced in this AD may be

    SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: A proposal to amend part 39 of the Federal 
    Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 39) by superseding AD 92-02-09, 
    amendment 39-8145 (57 FR 8257, March 9, 1992), which is applicable to 
    all Airbus Model A300 series airplanes (excluding Model A300 B4-600 
    series airplanes), was published in the Federal Register on January 22, 
    1996 (61 FR 1528). The action proposed to continue to require certain 
    structural inspections and modifications specified in AD 92-02-09, and 
    to require other additional structural inspections and modifications, 
    as well.
        Interested persons have been afforded an opportunity to participate 
    in the making of this amendment. Due consideration has been given to 
    the comments received.
        The commenters support the proposed rule.
        Since the issuance of the proposed rule, the Direction Generale de 
    l'Aviation Civile (DGAC), which is the airworthiness authority for 
    France, has notified the FAA that it has revised the French 
    airworthiness directive (CN) that was parallel in its requirements to 
    those of the notice for this AD rulemaking action. The revised CN is CN 
    90-22-116(B)R2, dated July 6, 1994; it was issued to exclude Airbus 
    Model A300 C4-600 and A300 F4-600 series airplanes from the list of 
    airplanes subject to the requirements of that CN.
        The FAA has examined the findings of the DGAC, reviewed all 
    available information, and determined that similar action is necessary 
    for products of this type design that are certificated for operation in 
    the United States. Accordingly, the final rule for this AD action has 
    been revised to exclude the Model A300 F4-600 series airplanes from the 
    applicability of the rule. (Model A300 C4-600 series airplanes are not 
    typed certificated for operation in the U.S.; therefore, the FAA finds 
    that no change to the final rule is necessary to exclude those 
    airplanes from the applicability of the AD.)
        The revised French CN also specifies the latest revisions of 
    various referenced service bulletins. These latest revisions were cited 
    correctly in the proposed rule. Therefore, no change to the final rule 
    is necessary in this regard.
        The date of issuance for Revision 2 of Airbus Service Bulletin 
    A300-53-196 was specified incorrectly in paragraph (a)(5) of the 
    proposed rule. That paragraph of the final rule has been revised to 
    specify the correct date of March 17, 1994. Additionally, that 
    paragraph has been revised to indicate that Service Bulletin Change 
    Notice 1.A. amends Revision 1 of the service bulletin, rather than 
    Revision 2.
        After careful review of the available data, including the comments 
    noted above, the FAA has determined that air safety and the public 
    interest require the adoption of the rule with the changes previously 
    described. The FAA has determined that these changes will neither 
    increase the economic burden on any operator nor increase the scope of 
    the AD.
        There are approximately 4 Model A300 series airplanes of U.S. 
    registry that will be affected by this proposed AD.
        The recurring inspections, which were required by AD 92-02-09 and 
    continue to be required by this AD, take approximately 196 work hours 
    per airplane to accomplish, at an average labor rate of $60 per work 
    hour. Required parts cost approximately $2,000. Based on these figures, 
    the cost impact on U.S. operators of the recurring inspections is 
    estimated to be $13,760 per airplane, or $55,040 for the affected U.S. 
    fleet.
        The new recurring inspection procedures that are added by this new 
    AD will take approximately 196 additional work hours per airplane to 
    accomplish, at an average labor rate of $60 per work hour. Required 
    parts will cost approximately $2,000. Based on these figures, the added 
    recurring inspection cost impact of this AD on U.S. operators is 
    estimated to be $13,760 per airplane, or $55,040 for the affected U.S. 
    fleet.
        The modifications required by AD 92-02-09, which continue to be 
    required by
    
    [[Page 18662]]
    
    this AD, take approximately 316 work hours per airplane to accomplish, 
    at an average labor rate of $60 per work hour. The cost for required 
    parts is $72,000. Based on these figures, the cost impact of this 
    modification on U.S. operators is estimated to be $90,960 per airplane, 
    or $363,840 for the affected U.S. fleet.
        The modifications that are added by this new AD action will require 
    approximately 1,599 additional work hours per airplane to accomplish, 
    at an average labor rate of $60 per work hour. The cost for required 
    parts is $145,000. Based on these figures, the added modification cost 
    impact of this AD on U.S. operators is estimated to be $240,940 per 
    airplane, or $963,760 for the affected U.S. fleet.
        Based on the figures discussed above, the cost impact of all of the 
    requirements of this AD is estimated to be $418,880 for the recurring 
    inspections and modifications required by AD 92-02-09, plus $1,018,800 
    for the additional inspections and modifications required by this AD. 
    These cost impact figures assume that no operator has yet accomplished 
    any of the requirements of this AD. However, it can be reasonably 
    assumed that the majority of affected operators have already initiated 
    the inspections and modifications required by AD 92-02-09, and many may 
    have already initiated the additional inspections and modifications 
    that are proposed by this new AD action.
        The FAA recognizes that the obligation to maintain aircraft in an 
    airworthy condition is vital, but sometimes expensive. Because AD's 
    require specific actions to address specific unsafe conditions, they 
    appear to impose costs that would not otherwise be borne by operators. 
    However, because of the general obligation of operators to maintain 
    aircraft in an airworthy condition, this appearance is deceptive. 
    Attributing those costs solely to the issuance of this AD is 
    unrealistic because, in the interest of maintaining safe aircraft, 
    prudent operators would accomplish the required actions even if they 
    were not required to do so by the AD.
        A full cost-benefit analysis has not been accomplished for this AD. 
    As a matter of law, in order to be airworthy, an aircraft must conform 
    to its type design and be in a condition for safe operation. The type 
    design is approved only after the FAA makes a determination that it 
    complies with all applicable airworthiness requirements. In adopting 
    and maintaining those requirements, the FAA has already made the 
    determination that they establish a level of safety that is cost-
    beneficial. When the FAA, as in this AD, makes a finding of an unsafe 
    condition, this means that the original cost-beneficial level of safety 
    is no longer being achieved and that the required actions are necessary 
    to restore that level of safety. Because this level of safety has 
    already been determined to be cost-beneficial, a full cost-benefit 
    analysis for this AD would be redundant and unnecessary.
        The regulations adopted herein will not have substantial direct 
    effects 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. Therefore, in 
    accordance with Executive Order 12612, it is determined that this final 
    rule does not have sufficient federalism implications to warrant the 
    preparation of a Federalism Assessment.
        For the reasons discussed above, I certify that this action (1) is 
    not a ``significant regulatory action'' under Executive Order 12866; 
    (2) is not a ``significant rule'' under 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. A final evaluation has been prepared for this action 
    and it is contained in the Rules Docket. A copy of it may be obtained 
    from the Rules Docket at the location provided under the caption 
    ADDRESSES.

        Note 1: This AD applies to each airplane identified in the 
    preceding applicability provision, regardless of whether it has been 
    modified, altered, or repaired in the area subject to the 
    requirements of this AD. For airplanes that have been modified, 
    altered, or repaired so that the performance of the requirements of 
    this AD is affected, the owner/operator must request approval for an 
    alternative method of compliance in accordance with paragraph (d) of 
    this AD. The request should include an assessment of the effect of 
    the modification, alteration, or repair on the unsafe condition 
    addressed by this AD; and, if the unsafe condition has not been 
    eliminated, the request should include specific proposed actions to 
    address it.
    
        Compliance: Required as indicated, unless accomplished 
    previously. -
