[Federal Register Volume 81, Number 7 (Tuesday, January 12, 2016)] [Proposed Rules] [Pages 1345-1349] From the Federal Register Online [www.thefederalregister.org] [FR Doc No: 2015-32851] ======================================================================= ----------------------------------------------------------------------- DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION Federal Aviation Administration 14 CFR Part 39 [Docket No. FAA-2015-8131; Directorate Identifier 2015-NM-073-AD] RIN 2120-AA64 Airworthiness Directives; The Boeing Company Airplanes AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT. ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM). ----------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY: We propose to supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2008-05- 06, which applies to certain The Boeing Company Model 737-100, -200, - 300, -400, and -500 series airplanes. AD 2008-05-06 currently requires repetitive inspections for fatigue cracking in the longitudinal floor beam web, upper chord, and lower chord [[Page 1346]] located at certain body stations, and repair if necessary. Since we issued AD 2008-05-06, we have determined that certain repairs and preventive modifications of certain longitudinal floor beam webs inadvertently omitted installation of tapered fillers. Omission of the tapered fillers creates a preload condition that may promote undetected fatigue cracking and subsequent failure of certain longitudinal floor beams. For certain airplanes, this proposed AD would require an inspection to determine if tapered fillers are installed, and related investigative and corrective actions if necessary. We are proposing this AD to detect and correct fatigue cracking of the upper and lower chords and web of the longitudinal floor beams, which could result in rapid loss of cabin pressure. DATES: We must receive comments on this proposed AD by February 26, 2016. ADDRESSES: You may send comments, using the procedures found in 14 CFR 11.43 and 11.45, by any of the following methods:Federal eRulemaking Portal: Go to http://www.regulations.gov.

Discussion On February 20, 2008, we issued AD 2008-05-06, Amendment 39-15400 (73 FR 11538, March 4, 2008), for certain The Boeing Company Model 737- 100, -200, -300, -400, and -500 series airplanes. AD 2008-05-06 requires repetitive inspections for fatigue cracking in the longitudinal floor beam web, upper chord, and lower chord located at certain body stations, and repair if necessary. AD 2008-05-06 refers to Boeing Service Bulletin 737-57-1296, dated June 13, 2007, as an appropriate source of service information for accomplishing the required actions. AD 2008-05-06 resulted from reports of cracks in the center wing box longitudinal floor beams, upper chord, and lower chord. We issued AD 2008-05-06 to detect and correct fatigue cracking of the upper and lower chords and web of the longitudinal floor beams, which could result in rapid loss of cabin pressure. Actions Since AD 2008-05-06, Amendment 39-15400 (73 FR 11538, March 4, 2008), Was Issued Since we issued AD 2008-05-06, Amendment 39-15400 (73 FR 11538, March 4, 2008), Boeing issued Boeing Service Bulletin 737-57-1296, Revision 1, dated September 26, 2012, which is an alternative method of compliance (AMOC) for the actions required by AD 2008-05-06. We have determined that Boeing Service Bulletin 737-57-1296, Revision 1, dated September 26, 2012, inadvertently omitted installation of tapered fillers during the repair and preventive modification of certain longitudinal floor beam webs. Omission of the tapered fillers creates a preload condition that may promote undetected fatigue cracking and subsequent failure of the longitudinal floor beams at buttock line (BL) 24.82 and BL 45.57. Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51 We reviewed Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 737-57A1296, Revision 2, dated April 1, 2015. The service information describes procedures for various inspections for fatigue cracks in the longitudinal floor beam web, upper chord, and lower chord, located at the applicable body stations, repairs (including related investigative and corrective actions), and preventive modifications (including related investigative and corrective actions) that terminate the repetitive inspections. The service information also describes procedures for an inspection to determine if tapered fillers are installed, and related investigative and corrective actions. 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 NPRM. FAA's Determination We are proposing this AD because we evaluated all the relevant information and determined the unsafe condition described previously is likely to exist or develop in other products of these same type designs. Proposed AD Requirements This proposed AD would retain all requirements of AD 2008-05-06, Amendment 39-15400 (73 FR 11538, March 4, 2008). This proposed AD would also require accomplishing the actions specified in the service information described previously, except as discussed under ``Differences Between this Proposed AD and the Service Information.'' For information on the procedures and compliance [[Page 1347]] times, see this service information at http://www.regulations.gov by searching for and locating Docket No. FAA-2015-8131. The phrase ``related investigative actions'' is used in this proposed AD. ``Related investigative actions'' are follow-on actions that (1) are related to the primary action, and (2) further investigate the nature of any condition found. Related investigative actions in an AD could include, for example, inspections. The phrase ``corrective actions'' is used in this proposed AD. ``Corrective actions'' are actions that correct or address any condition found. Corrective actions in an AD could include, for example, repairs. Formatting and Other Changes Between AD 2008-05-06, Amendment 39-15400 (73 FR 11538, March 4, 2008) and This Proposed AD Since AD 2008-05-06, Amendment 39-15400 (73 FR 11538, March 4, 2008), was issued, the AD format has been revised, and certain paragraphs have been rearranged. As a result, the corresponding paragraph identifiers have been redesignated in this proposed AD, as listed in the following table: Revised Paragraph Identifiers ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Requirement in AD 2008-05-06, Amendment 39- 15400 (73 FR 11538, Corresponding requirement in this March 4, 2008) proposed AD ------------------------------------------------------------------------ paragraph (f) paragraph (g) paragraph (g) paragraph (h) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ In addition, airplane groups identified in Boeing Service Bulletin 737-57-1296, dated June 13, 2007, which is referred to as the appropriate source of service information for accomplishing the actions required by AD 2008-05-06, Amendment 39-15400 (73 FR 11538, March 4, 2008), do not, in all cases, match the airplane groups for Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 737-57A1296, Revision 2, dated April 1, 2015, which is the appropriate source of service information for accomplishing the new actions specified in this proposed AD. Also, operators of Group 5 airplanes identified in Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 737-57A1296, Revision 2, dated April 1, 2015, must contact the FAA for actions instead of accomplishing the actions specified in Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 737-57A1296, Revision 2, dated April 1, 2015. The procedures for inspections and corrective actions specified in Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 737-57A1296, Revision 2, dated April 1, 2015, do not apply to these airplanes (line numbers 1 through 291). Differences Between This Proposed AD and the Service Information Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 737-57A1296, Revision 2, dated April 1, 2015, specifies to contact the manufacturer for instructions on how to repair certain conditions, but this proposed AD would require repairing those conditions in one of the following ways: In accordance with a method that we approve; or Using data that meet the certification basis of the airplane, and that have been approved by the Boeing Commercial Airplanes Organization Designation Authorization (ODA) whom we have authorized to make those findings. Costs of Compliance We estimate that this proposed AD affects 652 airplanes of U.S. registry. We estimate the following costs to comply with this proposed AD: Estimated Costs ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cost on U.S. Action Labor cost Parts cost Cost per product operators ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Inspections [retained actions Up to 25 work-hours x $0 $2,125 per $1,385,500 per from AD 2008-05-06, Amendment $85 per hour = $2,125 inspection cycle. inspection cycle. 39-15400 (73 FR 11538, March per inspection cycle. 4, 2008)]. Tapered filler inspection [new 4 work-hours x $85 per 0 $340.............. $221,680. proposed action]. hour = $340. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- We estimate the following costs to do any necessary repairs that would be required based on the results of the proposed inspection. We have no way of determining the number of aircraft that might need these repairs: On-Condition Costs ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Action Labor cost Parts cost Cost per product ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Floor beam repair and optional Up to 198 work[dash]hours x \[1]\ Up to $16,830. preventative modification. $85 per hour = $16,830. Tapered filler repair................. 174 work[dash]hours x $85 per \[1]\ $14,790. hour = $14,790. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- \[1]\ We have received no definitive data that would enable us to provide parts cost estimates for the actions specified in this proposed AD. 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 have determined that this proposed AD would not have federalism implications under Executive Order 13132. This proposed AD would 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 [[Page 1348]] responsibilities among the various levels of government. For the reasons discussed above, I certify that the proposed regulation: (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. List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 39 Air transportation, Aircraft, Aviation safety, Incorporation by reference, Safety. The Proposed Amendment Accordingly, under the authority delegated to me by the Administrator, the FAA proposes to amend 14 CFR part 39 as follows: PART 39--AIRWORTHINESS DIRECTIVES 0 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 removing Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2008-05-06, Amendment 39-15400 (73 FR 11538, March 4, 2008), and adding the following new AD: The Boeing Company: Docket No. FAA-2015-8131; Directorate Identifier 2015-NM-073-AD. (a) Comments Due Date The FAA must receive comments on this AD action by February 26, 2016. (b) Affected ADs This AD replaces AD 2008-05-06, Amendment 39-15400 (73 FR 11538, March 4, 2008).
