We are superseding Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2010-04-03 for all Airbus Model A310 series airplanes. AD 2010-04-03 required accomplishing repetitive detailed inspections for cracking around the fastener holes in certain wing top skin panels between the front and rear spars on the left- and right-hand sides of the fuselage, and repair if necessary. This new AD continues to require the repetitive detailed inspections, and also requires supplemental repetitive ultrasonic inspections for cracking around the fastener holes in wing top skin panels 1 and 2 at ribs 2 and 3, and repair if necessary. This AD was prompted by development of an ultrasonic inspection program to allow for earlier crack detection and extended repetitive inspection intervals. We are issuing this AD to detect and correct fatigue cracking around the fastener holes, which could result in reduced structural integrity of the airplane.

Airworthiness Directives; Airbus Airplanes

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

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: We are superseding Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2010-04-03 for 
all Airbus Model A310 series airplanes. AD 2010-04-03 required 
accomplishing repetitive detailed inspections for cracking around the 
fastener holes in certain wing top skin panels between the front and 
rear spars on the left- and right-hand sides of the fuselage, and 
repair if necessary. This new AD continues to require the repetitive 
detailed inspections, and also requires supplemental repetitive 
ultrasonic inspections for cracking around the fastener holes in wing 
top skin panels 1 and 2 at ribs 2 and 3, and repair if necessary. This 
AD was prompted by development of an ultrasonic inspection program to 
allow for earlier crack detection and extended repetitive inspection 
intervals. We are issuing this AD to detect and correct fatigue 
cracking around the fastener holes, which could result in reduced 
structural integrity of the airplane.

DATES: This AD is effective December 15, 2016.
    The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by 
reference of a certain publication listed in this AD as of December 15, 
2016.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Discussion

    We issued a supplemental notice of proposed rulemaking (SNPRM) to 
amend 14 CFR part 39 to supersede AD 2010-04-03, Amendment 39-16196 (75 
FR 6852, February 12, 2010) (``AD 2010-04-03''). AD 2010-04-03 applied 
to all Airbus Model A310 series airplanes. The SNPRM published in the 
Federal Register on July 11, 2016 (81 FR 44812) (``the SNPRM''). We 
preceded the SNPRM with a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) that 
published in the Federal Register on October 13, 2015 (80 FR 61327) 
(``the NPRM''). The NPRM was prompted by development of an ultrasonic 
inspection program to allow for earlier crack detection and extended 
repetitive inspection intervals. The NPRM proposed to retain the 
requirements of AD 2010-04-03, and proposed to require supplemental 
repetitive ultrasonic inspections for cracking around the fastener 
holes in wing top skin panels 1 and 2 at rib 2, and repair if 
necessary. The SNPRM proposed to expand the inspection area to include 
rib 3 due to widespread fatigue damage. We are issuing this AD to 
detect and correct fatigue cracking around the fastener holes, which 
could result in reduced structural integrity of the airplane.
    The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), which is the Technical 
Agent for the Member States of the European Union, has issued EASA 
Airworthiness Directive 2016-0005, dated January 7, 2016 (referred to 
after this as the Mandatory Continuing Airworthiness Information, or 
``the MCAI''), to correct an unsafe condition on all Airbus Model A310 
series airplanes. The MCAI states:

    Following scheduled maintenance, cracks were found around the 
wing top skin panels fastener holes at Rib 2, between Stringer (STG) 
2 and STG14.
    This condition, if not detected and corrected, could affect the 
structural integrity of the aeroplane. The General Visual Inspection 
required by the existing applicable Airworthiness Limitation Items 
(ALI) tasks may not be adequate to detect these cracks.
    To address this issue, Airbus developed an inspection programme 
based on repetitive detailed inspections (DET) to ensure that any 
visible cracks in the wing top skin panels 1 and 2 along Rib 2 are 
detected in time and repaired appropriately. EASA issued AD 2008-
0211 to require implementation of this inspection programme.
    After that [EASA] AD was issued, Airbus improved the inspection 
programme with an ultrasonic inspection to allow earlier crack 
detection, to subsequently reduce the scope of potential repair 
action, and to extend the intervals of the repetitive inspections.
    Consequently, EASA issued AD 2014-0200 (later revised), 
superseding [EASA] AD 2008-0211, retaining its requirements, and to 
require supplementary repetitive ultrasonic inspections [for 
cracking] of the wing top skin panel 1 and 2 between STG2 and STG10 
at Rib 2 [and repair if needed].
    Since EASA AD 2014-0020R1 was issued, a widespread fatigue 
damage analysis concluded that the inspection programme has to be 
extended to include the wing top skin panels at Rib 3 attachments. 
For the reasons described above, this [EASA] AD

[[Page 78900]]

retains the requirements of EASA AD 2014-0200R1, which is 
superseded, and extends the inspection area to include Rib 3.

    You may examine the MCAI in the AD docket on the Internet at http://www.regulations.gov by searching for and locating Docket No. FAA-2015-
3985.

Comments

    We gave the public the opportunity to participate in developing 
this AD. We received no comments on the SNPRM or on the determination 
of the cost to the public.

Clarification of Requirements

    We have clarified the terminating action sentence in paragraph (k) 
of this AD by adding a reference to paragraph (g) of this AD.
    We have clarified the average flight time in paragraph (l)(3) of 
this AD for subsequent inspections after the second inspection 
interval.

Conclusion

    We reviewed the relevant data 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 
SNPRM for correcting the unsafe condition; and
     Do not add any additional burden upon the public than was 
already proposed in the SNPRM.

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR part 51

    Airbus has issued Service Bulletin A310-57-2096, Revision 03, dated 
June 30, 2015. This service information describes procedures for 
detailed and ultrasonic inspections for cracking around the fastener 
holes of wing top skin panels 1 and 2, at ribs 2 and 3, on the left- 
and right-hand sides of the fuselage. 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.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this AD affects 28 airplanes of U.S. registry.
    We also estimate that it takes about 8 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 
this AD on U.S. operators to be $19,040, or $680 per product.
    We estimate that it takes about 15 work-hours per product to do any 
necessary on-condition actions that are required based on the results 
of the inspections. Required parts will cost about $10,000 per product. 
We have no way of determining the number of aircraft that might 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 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.

(l) Definition of Average Flight Time (AFT)

    For the purposes of this AD, the AFT should be established as 
specified in paragraphs (l)(1), (l)(2), and (l)(3) of this AD for 
the determination of the compliance times.
    (1) The inspection threshold is defined as the total flight 
hours accumulated (counted from take-off to touch-down), divided by 
the total number of flight cycles accumulated at the effective date 
of this AD.
    (2) The initial inspection interval is defined as the total 
flight hours accumulated divided by the total number of flight 
cycles accumulated at the time of the initial inspection threshold.
    (3) The second inspection interval is defined as the total 
flight hours accumulated divided by the total number of flight 
cycles accumulated between the initial and second inspection 
threshold. For all inspection intervals onwards, the average flight 
time is the flight hours divided by the flight cycles accumulated 
between the last two inspections.

(m) Credit for Previous Actions

    This paragraph provides credit for the actions required by 
paragraph (g)(1) of this AD, if those actions were performed before 
the effective date of this AD using the applicable service 
information identified in paragraph (m)(1), (m)(2), or (m)(3) of 
this AD.
    (1) Airbus Service Bulletin A310-57-2096, dated May 6, 2008,
