Airworthiness Directives; British Aerospace Regional Aircraft 
Airplanes

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

ACTION: Final rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for British 
Aerospace Regional Aircraft Jetstream Series 3101 and Jetsream Model 
3201 airplanes. This AD results from mandatory continuing airworthiness 
information (MCAI) issued by an aviation authority of another country 
to identify and correct an unsafe condition on an aviation product. The 
MCAI describes the unsafe condition as missing countersunk washers 
under the head of the main landing gear trunnion cap tension bolts that 
could cause fatigue in the bolt shanks. We are issuing this AD to 
require actions to address the unsafe condition on these products.

DATES: This AD is effective September 21, 2015.
    The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by 
reference of a certain publication listed in the AD as of September 21, 
2015.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Discussion

    We issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR 
part 39 to adding an AD that would apply to British Aerospace Regional 
Aircraft Model Jetstream Series 3101 and Jetstream Model 3201 
airplanes. The NPRM was published in the Federal Register on June 9, 
2015 (80 FR 32510). The NPRM proposed to correct an unsafe condition 
for the specified products and was based on mandatory continuing 
airworthiness information (MCAI) originated by an aviation authority of 
another country.
    The MCAI states:

    The review of the BAE production drawing for main landing gear 
(MLG) fitting installation identified a risk of omitting 
installation of a countersunk washer under the head of the MLG 
trunnion cap tension bolts, potentially causing fatigue in the bolt 
shank under the head of such tension bolt(s).
    This condition, if not detected and corrected, could lead to 
failure of the bolt(s), thereby compromising the structural 
integrity of the other MLG tension bolts holding the MLG in place, 
possibly resulting in collapse of the MLG on take-off or landing 
with consequent damage to the aeroplane and injury to occupants.
    Although so far, no in-service bolt head failures have been 
reported since entry in to service of the type design in 1986, to 
address this potential unsafe condition, BAE Systems (Operations) 
Ltd issued Service Bulletin (SB) 57-JA120141 to provide inspection 
instructions.
    For the reasons described above, this AD requires inspection 
and, depending on findings, replacement of the MLG trunnion cap 
tension bolts.

    The MCAI can be found in the AD docket on the Internet at: http://
www.regulations.gov/

#!documentDetail;D=FAA-2015-2048-0003.

Comments

    We gave the public the opportunity to participate in developing 
this AD. We received no comments on the NPRM (80 FR 32510, June 9, 
2015) or on the determination of the cost to the public.

Conclusion

    We reviewed the relevant data and determined that air safety and 
the public interest require adopting the AD as proposed except for 
minor editorial changes. We have determined that these minor changes:
     Are consistent with the intent that was proposed in the 
NPRM (80 FR 32510, June 9, 2015) for correcting the unsafe condition; 
and
     Do not add any additional burden upon the public than was 
already proposed in the NPRM (80 FR 32510, June 9, 2015).

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    We reviewed British Aerospace Regional Aircraft British Aerospace 
Jetstream Series 3100 & 3200 Service Bulletin 57-JA120141, REVISION 1, 
dated April 8, 2014. The service information describes procedures for 
inspection and replacement of main landing gear trunnion cap tension 
bolts. This service information is reasonably available because the 
interested parties have access to it through their normal course of 
business or by the means identified in the ADDRESSES section of this 
AD.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this AD will affect 66 products of U.S. registry. 
We also estimate that it will take about 6 work-hours per product to 
comply with the basic requirements of this AD. The average labor rate 
is $85 per work-hour.
    Based on these figures, we estimate the cost of the AD on U.S. 
operators to be $33,660, or $510 per product.
    In addition, we estimate that any necessary follow-on actions will 
take about 1 work-hour and require parts costing $1,200, for a cost of 
$1,285 per product. We have no way of determining the number of 
products that may need these actions.

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.

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 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.

    You may examine the AD docket on the Internet at http://www.regulations.gov by searching for and locating Docket No. FAA-2015-
2048; or in person at the Docket Management Facility between 9 a.m. and 
5 p.m., Monday through Friday, except Federal holidays. The AD docket 
contains the NPRM, the regulatory evaluation, any comments received, 
and other information. The street address for the Docket Office 
(telephone (800) 647-5527) is in the ADDRESSES section. Comments will 
be available in the AD docket shortly after receipt.

List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 39

    Air transportation, Aircraft, Aviation safety, Incorporation by 
reference, Safety.

Adoption of the Amendment

    Accordingly, under the authority delegated to me by the 
Administrator, the FAA amends 14 CFR part 39 as follows:

PART 39--AIRWORTHINESS DIRECTIVES

1. The authority citation for part 39 continues to read as follows:

     Authority: 49 U.S.C. 106(g), 40113, 44701.


Sec.  39.13  [Amended]

0
2. The FAA amends Sec.  39.13 by adding the following new AD:

2015-16-05 British Aerospace Regional Aircraft: Amendment 39-18230; 
Docket No. FAA-2015-2048; Directorate Identifier 2015-CE-015-AD.

(a) Effective Date

    This airworthiness directive (AD) becomes effective September 
21, 2015.

(b) Affected ADs

    None.

(c) Applicability

    This AD applies to British Aerospace Regional Aircraft Jetstream 
Series 3101 and Jetsream Model 3201 airplanes, all serial numbers, 
certificated in any category.

(d) Subject

    Air Transport Association of America (ATA) Code 32: Landing 
Gear.

(e) Reason

    This AD was prompted by mandatory continuing airworthiness 
information (MCAI) originated by an aviation authority of another 
country to identify and correct an unsafe condition on an aviation 
product. The MCAI describes the unsafe condition as missing 
countersunk washers under the head of the main landing gear (MLG) 
trunnion cap tension bolts that could cause fatigue in the bolt 
shanks. We are issuing this AD to detect and correct missing 
countersunk washers, which could lead to failure of the bolt(s), 
thereby compromising the structural integrity of the other MLG 
tension bolts holding the MLG in place, possibly resulting in 
collapse of the MLG on take-off or landing with consequent damage to 
the airplane and injury to occupants.

(f) Actions and Compliance

    Unless already done, do the actions in paragraphs (f)(1) through 
(f)(4) of this AD, including all subparagraphs, following the 
Accomplishment Instructions in British Aerospace Jetstream Series 
3100 & 3200 Service Bulletin 57-JA120141, REVISION 1, dated April 8, 
2014:
    (1) This AD allows credit for the actions required in paragraphs 
(f)(3) and (f)(4), including all subparagraphs, of this AD if done 
before September 21, 2015 (the effective date of this AD) following 
the Accomplishment Instructions of British Aerospace Jetstream 
Series 3100 & 3200 Service Bulletin 57-JA120141, Original Issue, 
dated: July 31, 2012.
    (2) For the purposes of this AD, owner/operators who do not 
track total flight cycles (FC) must multiply the total number of 
airplane hours time-in-service by 0.75 to calculate the FC.
    (3) For Pre-Mod JM5218 airplanes: Within 250 FC after September 
21, 2015 (the

------------------------------------------------------------------------

    (A) If no `new' replacement bolt is available to comply with 
paragraph (f)(4)(i) of this AD, the `old' bolt may be reinstalled 
without a countersunk washer, provided that within 500 FC after 
reinstallation and repetitively thereafter at intervals not to 
exceed 500 FC, each affected bolt is inspected by MPI.
    (B) Within 2,000 FC after reinstallation of a bolt as allowed by 
paragraph (f)(4)(i)(A) of this AD or before further flight if a 
crack was found during any MPI as required by paragraph (f)(4)(i)(A) 
of this AD, whichever occurs first, replace the `old' bolt P/N with 
a `new' bolt P/N as specified in figure 2 of paragraph (f)(4)(i) of 
this AD and install a washer having P/N PKS1000-7-2-S under each 
bolt.
    (ii) If it is determined the installed bolts are P/N 
MS21250H07046 or P/N MS21250H07060 and no countersunk washer is 
installed during the inspection required in paragraph (f)(4) of this 
AD, before further flight, do an MPI of each MLG trunnion cap 
tension bolt.
