[Docket No. FAA-2013-1064; Directorate Identifier 2012-NM-101-AD]
RIN 2120-AA64

Airworthiness Directives; Airbus Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

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

SUMMARY: We propose to supersede airworthiness directive (AD) 2005-23-
08 that applies to certain Airbus Model A300 B4-605R and B4-622R
airplanes; Model A300 F4-605R airplanes; and Model A300 C4-605R Variant
F airplanes. AD 2005-23-08 required repetitive inspections to detect
cracks of certain attachment holes, installation of new fasteners,
follow-on inspections or repair if necessary, and modification of the
angle fittings of fuselage frame FR47. Since we issued AD 2005-23-08,
we have received reports of cracks found on the horizontal flange of
the Frame 47 internal corner angle fitting while accomplishing the
modification required by AD 2005-23-08. This proposed AD would add new
repetitive ultrasonic inspections for cracks of the center wing box
lower panel; and repair if necessary. This proposed AD also removes
certain airplanes from the applicability. We are proposing this AD to
detect and correct fatigue cracking of

the forward fitting of fuselage frame FR47, which could result in
reduced structural integrity of the frame.

DATES: We must receive comments on this proposed AD by February 10,
2014.

ADDRESSES: You may send comments by any of the following methods:

Discussion

    On October 31, 2005, we issued AD 2005-23-08, Amendment 39-14366
(70 FR 69056, November 14, 2005). That AD required actions intended to
address an unsafe condition on certain Model A300 B4-601, B4-603, B4-
620, and B4-622 airplanes; Model A300 B4-605R and B4-622R airplanes;
Model A300 F4-605R airplanes; and Model A300 C4-605R Variant F
airplanes.
    Since we issued AD 2005-23-08, Amendment 39-14366 (70 FR 69056,
November 14, 2005), the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), which
is the Technical Agent for the Member States of the European Community,
has issued EASA Airworthiness Directive 2012-0092, dated May 25, 2012;
correction dated June 4, 2012 (referred to after this as the Mandatory
Continuing Airworthiness Information, or ``the MCAI''), to correct an
unsafe condition for the specified products. The MCAI states:

    Prompted by cracks found on the Frame 47 angle fitting, DGAC
France published AD 2000-533-328 [(http://ad.easa.europa.eu/ad/F-2000-533-328R1)] to require [a] repetitive inspection programme for
fuselage frame 47. If not detected and corrected, these cracks could
affect the structural integrity of the Centre Wing Box (CWB) of the
aeroplane.
    Subsequent to the publication of a new repetitive inspection
programme for fuselage frame 47 at certain fasteners of the CWB
angle fitting, DGAC France issued AD F-2004-159 [(http://ad.easa.europa.eu/ad/F-2004-159)] [which corresponds to AD 2005-23-
08, Amendment 39-14366 (70 FR 69056, November 14, 2005)],
superseding AD 2000-533-328.
    After DGAC France AD F-2004-159 was issued, cracks were
reportedly found on the horizontal flange of the Frame 47 internal
corner angle fitting during accomplishment of routine maintenance
structural inspection and modification in accordance with Airbus SB
A300-57-6050.
    Prompted by these findings, Airbus reviewed and amended the
inspection programme for the internal lower angle fitting flange
(horizontal face). The inspection programme for the lower angle
fitting web (vertical face) related to SB A300-57-6049 and internal
lower angle fitting modification programme related to SB A300-57-
6050 remain unchanged.
    For the reasons explained above, this new [EASA] AD retains the
requirements of DGAC France AD F-2004-159, which is superseded, and
requires additional repetitive [ultrasonic] inspections [for cracks]
of the CWB lower panel through the ultrasonic method and, depending
on findings, [repair, e.g.,] re-installation of removed fasteners in
transition fit instead of interference.
    This [EASA] AD has been republished to correct a typographical
error * * *.

    The repetitive interval for the new ultrasonic inspection is either
1,260 flight cycles or 2,720 flight hours, whichever occurs first; or
1,360 flight cycles or 2,200 flight hours, whichever occurs first;
depending on average flight time of the airplane. You may obtain
further information by examining the MCAI in the AD docket.

Relevant Service Information

    Airbus has issued Mandatory Service Bulletins A300-57-6049,
Revision 07, dated December 22, 2006, and A300-57-6086, Revision 05,
dated January 30, 2012. The actions described in this service
information are intended to correct the unsafe condition identified in
the MCAI.

FAA's Determination and Requirements of This Proposed AD

    This product has been approved by the aviation authority of another
country, and is approved for operation in the United States. Pursuant
to our bilateral agreement with the State of Design Authority, we have
been notified of the unsafe condition described in the MCAI and service
information referenced above. We are proposing this AD because we
evaluated all pertinent information and determined an unsafe condition
exists and is likely to exist or develop on other products of the same
type design.

Difference Between This Proposed AD and the MCAI or Service Information

    Although the MCAI and service information specify to contact the
manufacturer for instructions to repair certain conditions, this
proposed AD would require repairing those conditions using a method
approved by the Manager, International Branch, ANM-116, Transport
Airplane Directorate, FAA; or the EASA (or its delegated agent; or the
Design Approval Holder with EASA's design organization approval), as
applicable.

Explanation of Changes to AD 2005-23-08, Amendment 39-14366 (70 FR
69056, November 14, 2005)

    In many FAA transport ADs, when the service information specifies
to contact the manufacturer for further instructions if certain
discrepancies are found, we typically include in the AD a requirement
to accomplish the action using a method approved by either the FAA or
the State of Design Authority (or its delegated agent).
    We have recently been notified that certain laws in other countries
do not allow such delegation of authority, but some countries do
recognize design approval organizations. In addition, we have become
aware that some U.S. operators have used repair instructions that were
previously approved by a State of Design Authority or a Design Approval
Holder (DAH) as a method of compliance with this provision in FAA ADs.
Frequently, in these cases, the previously approved repair instructions
come from the airplane structural repair manual or the DAH repair
approval statements that were not specifically developed to address the
unsafe condition corrected by the AD. Using repair instructions that
were not specifically approved for a particular AD creates the
potential for doing repairs that were not developed to address the
unsafe condition identified by the MCAI AD, the FAA AD, or the
applicable service information, which could result in the unsafe
condition not being fully corrected.
    To prevent the use of repairs that were not specifically developed
to correct the unsafe condition, this proposed AD would require that
the repair approval specifically refer to the FAA AD. This change is
intended to clarify the method of compliance and to provide operators
with better visibility of repairs that are specifically developed and
approved to correct the unsafe condition. In addition, we use the
phrase ``its delegated agent, or by the DAH with State of Design
Authority design organization approval, as applicable'' in this
proposed AD to refer to an DAH authorized to approve required repairs
for this proposed AD.

Explanation of Change to Applicability

    AD 2005-23-08, Amendment 39-14366 (70 FR 69056, November 14, 2005),
includes Airbus Model A300 B4-601 airplanes in the applicability.
However, this proposed AD does not include Model A300 B4-601 airplanes
because these airplanes are no longer in service.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this proposed AD affects about 65 products of U.S.
registry.
    We estimate the following costs to comply with this proposed AD:

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 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.
    We prepared a regulatory evaluation of the estimated costs to
comply with this proposed AD and placed it in the AD docket.

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:
