SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Discussion

    We issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR 
part 39 by adding an AD that would apply to certain Airbus Model A330-
200, -200 Freighter, and -300 series airplanes; and all Airbus Model 
A340-200, -300, -500, and -600 series airplanes. The NPRM published in 
the Federal Register on March 31, 2015 (80 FR 17000). We are issuing 
this AD to detect and correct cracking at certain frames, which could 
result in the loss of structural integrity of the forward cargo door.
    The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), which is the Technical 
Agent for the Member States of the European Union, has issued EASA 
Airworthiness Directive 2014-0228, dated October 20, 2014 (referred to 
after this as the Mandatory Continuing Airworthiness Information, or 
``the MCAI''), to correct an unsafe condition for certain Airbus Model 
A330-200, -200 Freighter, and -300 series airplanes; and all Airbus 
Model A340-200, -300, -500, and -600 series airplanes. The MCAI states:

    An A330 aeroplane operator reported recently cases of crack 
findings on two different aeroplanes, at frame 20A and at frame 20B 
close to beam 3 of the forward cargo door. The first finding was 
detected during scheduled maintenance, while the second one was 
found during an inspection prompted by the first finding. Subsequent 
analyses of these cracks identified that the first crack initiated 
at frame 20B, which is the first primary load path, leading to 
excessive loads at frame 20A and consequent cracking. Nevertheless, 
on the other aeroplane, a crack was detected on frame 20A only. 
Rupture of both frames 20A and 20B could lead to frame 21 failure 
after a limited number of flight cycles (FC).
    This condition, if not detected and corrected, may potentially 
result in the loss of structural integrity of the forward cargo 
door, which could ultimately jeopardise the aeroplane's safe flight.
    Prompted by these findings, Airbus issued Alert Operators 
Transmission (AOT) A52L010-14 to provide instructions for a one-time 
inspection of frames 20A, 20B and 21 in the area of beam 3, until 
the half pitch between beam 2 and beam 3.
    For the reasons described above, this [EASA] AD requires 
identification of the Part Number (P/N) of the affected forward 
cargo doors, a one-time detailed inspection (DET) of each affected 
door and, depending on findings, accomplishment of applicable 
corrective action(s) [contacting Airbus].
    This [EASA] AD is considered to be an interim action and further 
AD action may follow.

    Required actions also include sending inspection results to Airbus. 
You may examine the MCAI in the AD docket on the Internet at http://www.regulations.gov/#!documentDetail;D=FAA-2015-0675-0002.

Correction for Service Information Typo

    On page 1 of Airbus AOT A52L010-14, dated September 30, 2014, at 
section ``2. Referenced Documentation,'' ``Ref. 5'' specifies page 
block ``PB.801,'' which is incorrect. This page block should be 
``PB.401'' instead. We have added new paragraph (k) to this AD to 
account for this correction, and have redesignated subsequent 
paragraphs.

Comments

    We gave the public the opportunity to participate in developing 
this AD. The following presents the comments received on the NPRM (80 
FR 17000, March 31, 2015) and the FAA's response to each comment.

Request To Revise Part Number List Sequencing

    American Airlines (AA) requested that we revise the proposed AD (80 
FR 17000, March 31, 2015) by swapping the part numbers listed in 
paragraphs (g)(1)(ii) and (g)(1)(x) of the proposed AD to maintain 
alphanumeric order. American Airlines reasoned that the flow of the 
list is confusing.
    We agree to revise paragraphs (g)(1)(ii) and (g)(1)(x) of this AD 
for the reasons requested by American Airlines.

Request for Justification

    AA asked whether a root cause has been determined that justifies 
the proposed inspection threshold. AA noted that paragraph (g)(1) of 
the proposed AD (80 FR 17000, March 31, 2015) proposed that inspections 
on all affected doors be completed within 200 flight cycles from the 
effective date of the AD. AA further noted from Airbus AOT A52L010-14, 
dated September 30,

[[Page 79470]]

2014, that the service events that led to the issuance of this 
inspection occurred on airplanes with 16,170 and 16,556 total 
accumulated flight cycles. Following release of Airbus AOT A52L010-14, 
dated September 30, 2014, AA reported that it completed four 
inspections in accordance with Airbus AOT A52L010-14, dated September 
30, 2014, with no findings, and those inspected airplanes had 
accumulated 8,849 to 9,093 total flight cycles.
    We infer that AA considers the proposed compliance times to be 
unjustifiably short. We disagree to revise the compliance times in this 
AD. At the time of issuance of EASA AD 2014-0228, dated October 20, 
2014, it had been determined that fatigue calculations were showing low 
life factors at frame C20B. After a failure of frame C20B, the edge 
member C20A would be overloaded and could potentially fail within 800 
flight cycles, according to damage tolerance calculations. The failure 
of the tow frame would be catastrophic. Therefore the decision was made 
to mandate a one-time inspection with a compliance time of within 200 
flight cycles after the effective date of this AD, which corresponds to 
the compliance time specified in EASA AD 2014-0228, dated October 20, 
2014. We have made no changes to this AD in this regard.

Request for Credit for Reporting

    AA requested that we revise paragraph (i)(2) of the proposed AD (80 
FR 17000, March 31, 2015) to allow credit for reporting that has 
already been accomplished before the effective date of this AD. AA 
explained that the proposed AD would require operators to submit a 
report within 30 days after the AD effective date if the inspection was 
done before the effective date of the AD. AA reasoned that this does 
not allow for credit to be taken for reports that were submitted in 
accordance with Airbus AOT A52L010-14, dated September 30, 2014, prior 
to the AD effective date. AA requested that paragraph (i)(2) of the 
proposed AD state, ``[i]f the inspection was done before the effective 
date of this AD: Submit the report within 30 days after the effective 
date of this AD, unless the inspection report was previously 
submitted.''
    We agree to allow credit for reporting that has already been 
accomplished before the effective date of this AD. The compliance time 
in paragraph (i)(2) of this AD is within 30 days after the effective 
date of this AD. Reports submitted before that compliance time, 
including those submitted before the effective date of this AD (as 
specified in paragraph (f) of this AD), are acceptable for compliance 
with paragraph (i)(2) of this AD. We have made no changes to this AD in 
this regard.

Request To Revise Applicability

    Delta requested that we limit the applicability of the proposed AD 
to airplanes equipped with any of the forward cargo doors with the 
manufacturer part numbers (MPNs) listed in paragraphs (g)(1)(i) through 
(g)(1)(xii) of the proposed AD. Delta noted that paragraphs (c)(1) and 
(c)(2) of the proposed AD would apply to the identified airplane 
models, unless Modification 202702 had been embodied in production on 
certain airplanes.
    Delta stated it had requested clarification from Airbus about the 
relationship between the MPNs identified in paragraphs (g)(1)(i) 
through (g)(1)(xii) of the proposed AD and airplanes in the pre-Mod 
50528 configuration, as specified in Airbus AOT A52L010-14, dated 
September 30, 2014. According to Delta, Airbus confirmed via Airbus 
Message 80036162, dated April 1, 2015, that because cargo doors are 
components and can be swapped during in-service life, Airbus had 
intentionally extended the affected airplanes for the required 
inspections to include pre-Mod 202702 airplanes that may have affected 
doors. Delta then reasoned that since operators can track the 
modification status only by the individual airplane, the applicability 
should be written to include the MPNs to ensure that operators 
understand which airplanes are affected by the AD.
    We disagree with the request to limit the applicability of this AD 
(paragraph (c) of this AD) to airplanes having the MPNs identified in 
paragraphs (g)(1)(i) through (g)(1)(xii) of this AD. The ``Parts 
Installation Prohibition'' specified in paragraph (j) of this AD 
applies to all airplanes identified in the paragraph (c) of this AD to 
ensure the affected MPNs are not installed on those airplanes. However, 
the inspection required by paragraph (g) of this AD is limited to 
airplanes having the affected MPNs. We have therefore made no changes 
to this AD in this regard.

Request To Revise Cost

    Delta requested that we revise the ``Costs of Compliance'' 
paragraph in the NPRM (80 FR 17000, March 31, 2015) to state, 
``However, Airbus has confirmed that out of qty (260) affected MPN Fwd 
cargo doors inspected, all were reported with NIL [no findings] 
findings.'' Delta agreed that there is no way of determining the number 
of aircraft that might need the corrective actions for inspection 
findings, but added that the compliance window of 200 flight cycles for 
the inspection is a fairly short compliance window and may likely need 
to be accomplished in a line environment. Delta expressed that it may 
be prudent to communicate to operators that out of a quantity of 260 
forward cargo doors already inspected, there have been NIL findings (as 
noted in Airbus Message 80036162, dated April 1, 2015).
    We agree with Delta's request and have revised the ``Costs of 
Compliance'' paragraph accordingly in this final rule.

Request for Records Review

    Delta requested that we revise paragraph (g)(1) of the proposed AD 
(80 FR 17000, March 31, 2015) to allow for a records review if the part 
number can be conclusively determined from that review. Delta reasoned 
that without this provision, the operators may consider a physical 
review of each forward cargo door to be required.
    For the reason stated by Delta, we agree to allow for a review of 
airplane maintenance records to verify whether cargo doors with part 
numbers listed in paragraphs (g)(1)(i) through (g)(1)(xii) of this AD 
are installed on the airplane. We have revised paragraph (g)(1) of this 
AD accordingly.

Conclusion

    We reviewed the relevant data, considered the comments received, 
and determined that air safety and the public interest require adopting 
this AD with the changes described previously and minor editorial 
changes. We have determined that these minor changes:
     Are consistent with the intent that was proposed in the 
NPRM (80 FR 17000, March 31, 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 17000, March 31, 2015).
    We also determined that these changes will not increase the 
economic burden on any operator or increase the scope of this AD.

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51C

    Airbus has issued AOT A52L010-14, dated September 30, 2014. The 
service information describes procedures for an inspection for and 
repair of cracking of certain forward cargo doors. 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.

[[Page 79471]]

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this AD affects 89 airplanes of U.S. registry.
    We also estimate that it will take about 1 work-hour per product to 
comply with the basic requirements of this AD. The average labor rate 
is $85 per work-hour. Required parts will cost $0 per product. Based on 
these figures, we estimate the cost of this AD on U.S. operators to be 
$7,565, or $85 per product.
    In addition, we estimate that any necessary follow-on actions will 
take about 32 work-hours and require parts costing $654,850, for a cost 
of $657,570 per product. We have no way of determining the number of 
airplanes that might need these actions. However, Airbus has confirmed 
that out of 260 affected MPN forward cargo doors already inspected, all 
were reported with NIL findings; therefore, we anticipate that few, if 
any, airplanes will require these follow-on actions.

Paperwork Reduction Act

    A federal agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not 
required to respond to, nor shall a person be subject to penalty for 
failure to comply with a collection of information subject to the 
requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act unless that collection of 
information displays a current valid OMB control number. The control 
number for the collection of information required by this AD is 2120-
0056. The paperwork cost associated with this AD has been detailed in 
the Costs of Compliance section of this document and includes time for 
reviewing instructions, as well as completing and reviewing the 
collection of information. Therefore, all reporting associated with 
this AD is mandatory. Comments concerning the accuracy of this burden 
and suggestions for reducing the burden should be directed to the FAA 
at 800 Independence Ave. SW., Washington, DC 20591, ATTN: Information 
Collection Clearance Officer, AES-200.

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 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.

Directorate, FAA; or the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA); or 
Airbus's EASA Design Organization Approval (DOA).

(h) Definition of Detailed Inspection

    For the purposes of this AD, a detailed inspection is an 
intensive examination of a specific item, installation, or assembly 
to detect damage, failure, or irregularity. Available lighting is 
normally supplemented with a direct source of good lighting at an 
intensity deemed appropriate. Inspection aids such as a mirror, 
magnifying lenses, etc., may be necessary. Surface cleaning and 
elaborate procedures may be required.

(i) Reporting Requirement

    Submit a report of the findings (both positive and negative) of 
the inspection required by paragraph (g)(1) of this AD to Serge 
KIYMAZ, Structure Engineer, Structure Engineering--SEES1 CUSTOMER 
SERVICES, Phone: +33(0)5 82 05 10 33, Fax: +33(0)5 61 93 36 14, 
email: [email protected], at the applicable time specified in 
paragraph (i)(1) or (i)(2) of this AD. The report must include the 
information identified in Airbus AOT A52L010-14, dated September 30, 
2014.
    (1) If the inspection was done on or after the effective date of 
this AD: Submit the report within 30 days after the inspection.
    (2) If the inspection was done before the effective date of this 
AD: Submit the report within 30 days after the effective date of 
this AD.

(j) Parts Installation Limitation

    As of the effective date of this AD, installation of a forward 
cargo door having any part number specified in paragraphs (g)(1)(i) 
through (g)(1)(xii) of this AD is permitted on any airplane, 
provided that prior to installation, the door is inspected and, 
depending on the findings, corrected, in accordance with Airbus AOT 
A52L010-14, dated September 30, 2014, except as required by 
paragraph (k) of this AD.

(k) Exception to the Service Information

    On page 1 of Airbus AOT A52L010-14, dated September 30, 2014, at 
section ``2. Referenced Documentation,'' ``Ref. 5'' specifies page 
block ``PB.801,'' which is incorrect. This page block should be 
``PB.401'' instead.

(l) Other FAA AD Provisions

    The following provisions also apply to this AD:
    (1) Alternative Methods of Compliance (AMOCs): The Manager, 
International Branch, ANM-116, Transport Airplane Directorate, FAA, 
has the authority to approve AMOCs for this AD, if requested using 
the procedures found in 14 CFR 39.19. In accordance with 14 CFR 
39.19, send your request to your principal inspector or local Flight 
Standards District Office, as appropriate. If sending information 
directly to the International Branch, send it to ATTN: Vladimir 
Ulyanov, Aerospace Engineer, International Branch, ANM 116, 
Transport Airplane Directorate, FAA, 1601 Lind Avenue SW., Renton, 
WA 98057-3356; telephone 425-227-1138; fax 425-227-1149. Information 
may be emailed to: [email protected]. Before using any 
approved AMOC, notify your appropriate principal inspector, or 
lacking a principal inspector, the manager of the local flight 
standards district office/certificate holding district office. The 
AMOC approval letter must specifically reference this AD.
    (2) Contacting the Manufacturer: For any requirement in this AD 
to obtain corrective actions from a manufacturer, the action must be 
accomplished using a method approved by the Manager, International 
Branch, ANM-116, Transport Airplane Directorate, FAA; or the EASA; 
or Airbus's EASA DOA. If approved by the DOA, the approval must 
include the DOA-authorized signature.
    (3) Reporting Requirements: A federal agency may not conduct or 
sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, nor shall a 
person be subject to a penalty for failure to comply with a 
collection of information subject to the requirements of the 
Paperwork Reduction Act unless that collection of information 
displays a current valid OMB Control Number. The OMB Control Number 
for this information collection is 2120-0056. Public reporting for 
this collection of information is estimated to be approximately 5 
minutes per response, including the time for reviewing instructions, 
completing and reviewing the collection of information. All 
responses to this collection of information are mandatory. Comments 
concerning the accuracy of this burden and suggestions for reducing 
the burden should be directed to the FAA at: 800 Independence Ave. 
SW., Washington, DC 20591, Attn: Information Collection Clearance 
Officer, AES 200.
