Airworthiness Directives; The Boeing Company Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

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

SUMMARY: The FAA proposes to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD)
for all The Boeing Company Model 747-100, -100B, -100B SUD, -200B, -
200C, -200F, -300, -400, -400D, -400F, 747SR, and 747SP airplanes. This
proposed AD was prompted by reports of cracks found in the front spar
shear tie and at the intercostal lug fitting at certain locations. This
proposed AD would require repetitive detailed and surface high
frequency eddy current (HFEC) inspections of the front spar shear tie
and intercostal lug fitting at certain locations for any cracking, and
applicable on-condition actions. The FAA is proposing this AD to
address the unsafe condition on these products.

DATES: The FAA must receive comments on this proposed AD by July 22,
2021.

this proposal because of those comments.
    Except for Confidential Business Information (CBI) as described in
the following paragraph, and other information as described in 14 CFR
11.35, the FAA will post all comments received, without change, to
https://www.regulations.gov, including any personal information you
provide. The agency will also post a report summarizing each
substantive verbal contact received about this NPRM.

Confidential Business Information

    CBI is commercial or financial information that is both customarily
and actually treated as private by its owner. Under the Freedom of
Information Act (FOIA) (5 U.S.C. 552), CBI is exempt from public
disclosure. If your comments responsive to this NPRM contain commercial
or financial information that is customarily treated as private, that
you actually treat as private, and that is relevant or responsive to
this NPRM, it is important that you clearly designate the submitted
comments as CBI. Please mark each page of your submission containing
CBI as ``PROPIN.'' The FAA will treat such marked submissions as
confidential under the FOIA, and they will not be placed in the public
docket of this NPRM. Submissions containing CBI should be sent to
Stefanie Roesli, Aerospace Engineer, Airframe Section, FAA, Seattle ACO
Branch, 2200 South 216th St., Des Moines, WA 98198; phone and fax: 206
231 3964; email<EMAIL_ADDRESS>Any commentary that the FAA
receives which is not specifically designated as CBI will be placed in
the public docket for this rulemaking.

Background

    The FAA has received reports indicating cracks were found in the
station (STA) 1000 front spar shear tie at the left and right side
buttock line (BL) 11.33, BL 33.99, BL 57.50, and BL 75.92, and in the
intercostal lug fitting at the left and right side BL 11.33. The cause
of the cracks in the front spar shear tie was fatigue at the holes of
the system standoff brackets and front spar shear tie radius details.
In addition, the cracks on the longitudinal lug fitting were caused by
fatigue at the radius between the lug and the fitting base.
    This condition, if not addressed, could result in the loss of limit
load capability in a principal structural element, the potential
inability to restrain the cargo for certain cargo configurations, and
the potential for a center fuel tank rupture for certain cargo
configurations under limit load conditions, which could adversely
affect the structural integrity of the airplane.

FAA's Determination

    The FAA is issuing this NPRM after determining that the unsafe
condition described previously is likely to exist or develop on other
products of the same type design.

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    The FAA reviewed Boeing Alert Requirements Bulletin 747-53A2904 RB,
dated December 16, 2020. This service information specifies procedures
for repetitive detailed and surface HFEC inspections of the STA 1000
front spar shear tie at the left and right side BL 11.33, BL 33.99, BL
57.50, and BL 75.92, and of the intercostal lug fitting at the left and
right side BL 11.33, for any cracking, and applicable on-condition
actions. On-condition actions include repair, installing a new front
spar shear tie, and installing a new intercostal lug fitting. 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 ADDRESSES.

Proposed AD Requirements in This NPRM

    This proposed AD would require accomplishing the actions specified
in the service information already described except for any differences
identified as exceptions in the regulatory text of this proposed AD.
For information on the procedures and compliance times, see this
service information at https://www.regulations.gov by searching for and
locating Docket No. FAA-2021-0376.

Costs of Compliance

    The FAA estimates that this AD, if adopted as proposed, would
affect 117 airplanes of U.S. registry. The FAA estimates the following
costs to comply with this proposed AD:

                                                 Estimated Costs
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
          Action               Labor cost       Parts cost        Cost per product       Cost on U.S.  operators
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Inspections..............  Up to 314 work-                $0  Up to $26,690...........  Up to $3,122,730.
                            hours x $85 per
                            hour = Up to
                            $26,690.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The FAA estimates the following costs to do any necessary
installations and repairs that would be required based on the results
of the proposed inspection. The agency has no way of determining the
number of aircraft that might need these installations and repairs:

                                               On-Condition Costs
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
             Action                     Labor cost              Parts cost               Cost per product

Installations..................  Up to 368 work-hour x    Up to $38,446 (for      Up to $69,726.
                                  $85 per hour = Up to     shear ties and
                                  $31,280.                 intercostal lug
                                                           fittings).
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The FAA has received no definitive data on which to base the cost
estimates for the repairs 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.
    The FAA is 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

    The FAA 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) Would not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska, and
    (3) Would not have a significant economic impact, positive or
negative, on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria
of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.
