SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Comments Invited We invite you to send any written relevant data, views, or arguments about this NPRM. Send your comments to an address listed under the ADDRESSES section. Include ``Docket No. FAA-2017-0021; Directorate Identifier 2017-NE-01-AD'' at the beginning of your comments.

We will post all comments we receive, without change, to http://www.regulations.gov, including any personal information you provide. We will also post a report summarizing each substantive verbal contact we receive about this NPRM. Discussion IAE self-disclosed several quality escapes that had occurred during manufacture of high-pressure turbine (HPT) stage 2 air seals, HPT 1st stage air seals, and/or HPT stage 2 ring plates, at the Pratt and Whitney Chengdu facility. The quality escapes are associated with P&W's manufacturing source approval requirement, which includes reporting of tool breaks on life-limited parts. A number of documented and undocumented occurences of tool breaks were experienced during machining, which could affect the low-cycle fatigue capability of the suspect parts. In addition, several manufactured life-limited parts without logbooks are also suspected of experiencing occurences of a tool break. This proposed AD would require replacing the affected parts within the time limits specified in the compliance section. This condition, if not corrected, could result in failure of high-energy, rotating hardware, uncontained part release, damage to the engine, and damage to the airplane. Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51 We reviewed International Aero Engines, IAE Non-Modification Service Bulletin (NMSB) V2500-ENG-72-0676, dated October 14, 2016; IAE NMSB V2500-ENG-72-0677, Revision 1, dated January 11, 2017; IAE NMSB V2500-ENG-72-0682, dated December 2, 2016; IAE NMSB V2500-ENG-72-0681, Revision 2, dated January 9, 2017; and IAE NMSB V2500-ENG-72-0678, Revision 1, dated January 5, 2017. Each of the NMSBs describes procedures for replacing a different affected part. 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. 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 require replacing the affected parts within the time limits specified in the compliance section. Costs of Compliance We estimate that this proposed AD affects 70 engines installed on airplanes of U.S. registry. We estimate the following costs to comply with this proposed AD: Estimated Costs ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cost per Cost on U.S. Action Labor cost Parts cost product operators ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Removal of HPT stage 2 air seal (cycle limited). $0 $154,119.00 $154,119.00 $308,238.00 [[Page 13571]] Removal of HPT 1st stage air seal (cycle 0 87,503.00 87,503.00 175,006.00 limited)....................................... Removal of HPT stage 2 ring plate (cycle 0 56,207.00 56,207.00 112,414.00 limited)....................................... Removal of HPT stage 2 ring plate (piece-part).. 0 31,403.00 31,403.00 2,041,195.00 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- According to the manufacturer, some of the costs of this proposed AD may be covered under warranty, thereby reducing the cost impact on affected individuals. We do not control warranty coverage for affected individuals. As a result, we have included all costs in our cost estimate. 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 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 responsibilities among the various levels of government. For the reasons discussed above, I certify this 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 adding the following new airworthiness directive (AD): International Aero Engines AG: Docket No. FAA-2017-0021; Directorate Identifier 2017-NE-01-AD.
