AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Department of
Transportation (DOT).
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The FAA is superseding an existing airworthiness directive
(AD), which applies to certain Boeing Model 747 series airplanes. That
AD currently requires repetitive inspections to detect cracks in
various areas of the fuselage internal structure, and repair if
necessary. This new AD requires repetitive inspections of additional
areas of the fuselage internal structure, and related investigative/
corrective actions if necessary. This new AD also removes certain
requirements from the existing AD. This AD results from fatigue testing
of the fuselage structure of a Boeing Model 747SR series airplane. We
are issuing this AD to prevent the loss of the structural integrity of
the fuselage, which could result in rapid depressurization of the
airplane.
DATES: Effective November 16, 2005.
The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by
reference of Boeing Service Bulletin 747-53A2349, Revision 2, dated
April 3, 2003, as of November 16, 2005.
On June 27, 2002 (67 FR 36081, May 23, 2002), the Director of the
Federal Register approved the incorporation by reference of Boeing
Alert Service Bulletin 747-53A2349, Revision 1, dated October 12, 2000.
On June 11, 1993 (58 FR 27927, May 12, 1993), the Director of the

Discussion
The FAA issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14
CFR part 39 to include an AD that supersedes AD 2002-10-10, amendment
39-12756 (67 FR 36081, May 23, 2002). The existing AD applies to
certain Boeing Model 747 series airplanes. That NPRM was published in
the Federal Register on April 11, 2005 (70 FR
[[Page 59253]]
18332). That NPRM proposed to require repetitive inspections to detect
cracks in various areas of the fuselage internal structure, and related
investigative/corrective actions if necessary.
Comments
We provided the public the opportunity to participate in the
development of this AD. We have considered the comments that have been
received on the NPRM.
Request To Clarify Paragraph (b) of the NPRM
One commenter, the manufacturer, requests that paragraph (b) of the
NPRM be revised to indicate that the NPRM does not address the upper
deck floor beams, one subject of AD 2002-10-10. The commenter suggests
that paragraph (b) be revised to read, ``This AD supersedes AD 2002-10-
10, amendment 39-12756 (67 FR 36081, May 23, 2002), except AD 2002-10-
10, paragraphs (a)(1), (d), (e), and (g), are not addressed by this
AD.''
We do not agree. In the ``Other Related Rulemaking'' section of the
NPRM, we clarified that all requirements from AD 2002-10-10 related to
the upper deck floor beams are included in a separate rulemaking
action. Consequently, on April 1, 2005, we issued an NPRM, Docket No.
FAA-2005-20879, to propose to address cracking in the upper chords of
the upper deck floor beams. That NPRM was published in the Federal
Register on April 11, 2005 (70 FR 18327). We have not revised the final
rule in this regard.
Request To Revise Paragraph (i) of the NPRM
The same commenter requests that paragraph (i) of the NPRM be
revised to indicate that the inspection for the areas specified in
paragraph (i)(5) of the NPRM consists of internal and external detailed
inspections. The commenter notes that the revision should be made to
agree with Boeing Service Bulletin 747-53A2349, Revision 2, dated April
3, 2003 (which is referenced as the appropriate source of service
information for accomplishing the proposed actions).
We agree with the commenter. The inspections of the nose wheel well
bulkheads and floor beams specified in paragraph (i)(5) of the final
rule are internal and external inspections. We have revised paragraph
(i) of the final rule accordingly.
Request To Move Grace Period From Paragraph (j)(2) to Paragraph (j)(1)
The same commenter requests that the grace period ``within 1,000
flight cycles after the effective date of this AD,'' be removed from
the compliance time in paragraph (j)(2) of the NPRM and be added to the
compliance time in paragraph (j)(1) of the NPRM. The commenter believes
moving the grace period will convey the true intent of the service
bulletin. The commenter states that the grace period can be removed
from paragraph (j)(2) because the paragraph applies to operators that
have already performed the inspections specified in paragraphs (i)(5)
and (i)(7) of the NPRM. The commenter explains that these operators
therefore are using Revision 2 of the service bulletin and would
continue the inspections at the 3,000-flight-cycle repetitive interval.
We partially agree with the commenter. We agree with the commenter
that the grace period ``within 1,000 flight cycles after the effective
date of this AD'' should be added to the compliance time in paragraph
(j)(1) of the final rule and have revised paragraph (j)(1) accordingly.
We find that the grace period will keep airplanes from being grounded
unnecessarily and will provide an acceptable level of safety. However,
we do not agree to remove the grace period from paragraph (j)(2) of the
final rule. Operators that have voluntarily accomplished the
inspections specified in paragraphs (i)(5) and (i)(7) of the final rule
before the effective date of the final rule should be given the same
grace period for the new inspections as operators that have not done
the inspections specified in paragraphs (i)(5) and (i)(7). We also note
that this grace period is for the new inspections specified in
paragraphs (i)(5) and (i)(7) and that operators are still required to
do the inspections specified in paragraph (f) of the final rule at
intervals not to exceed 3,000 flight cycles until all the inspections
required by paragraph (i) of the final rule are done.
Request To Revise Compliance Time in Paragraph (j)(3)
The same commenter requests that the compliance time specified in
paragraph (j)(3) of the NPRM be revised to clarify that the grace
period is limited to the ``new work'' specified in paragraphs (i)(5)
and (i)(7) of the NPRM. The commenter states that the existing
compliance time would allow deferral of all the inspections until
23,000 total flight cycles. The commenter recommends that the
compliance time read as follows: ``Accomplish the inspections required
by paragraphs (i)(1), (i)(2), (i)(3), (i)(4), (f)(5), and (i)(6) of
this AD prior to the accumulation of 22,000 flight cycles. Accomplish
the inspections required by paragraphs (i)(5) and (i)(7) of this AD
prior to the accumulation of 22,000 flight cycles, or within 1,000
flight cycles after the effective date of this AD, whichever is
later.''
We acknowledge that the only new inspections required by the final
rule are the inspections specified in paragraphs (i)(5) and (i)(7) of
the final rule. However, we do not agree that the compliance time
specified in paragraph (j)(3) of the final rule allows for deferral of
the other inspections specified in paragraph (i) of the final rule.
Although an operator may delay doing the inspections specified in
paragraphs (i)(1), (i)(2), (i)(3), (i)(4), and (i)(6) of the final rule
until the end of the grace period, the operator is still required to do
the equivalent inspections specified in paragraph (f) of the final
rule. Thus the existing inspections required by paragraph (f) of the
final rule must be done at the compliance times specified in paragraph
(f) until all the inspections required by paragraph (i) are done. We
have not changed the final rule in this regard.
Request To Clarify Repair Reference
The same commenter requests that paragraphs (h) and (k) of the NPRM
be revised to clarify that the Boeing Structural Repair Manuals (SRMs)
meet the intent of the NPRM for repairs. The commenter contends that
the SRMs contain the appropriate repairs and are referenced in Boeing
Service Bulletin 747-53-2349. The commenter believes that the phrase
``For a repair method to be approved, the approval must specifically
reference this AD'' in the second part of paragraph (k) should apply
only to the second part of the paragraph that says to ``contact
Boeing.'' The commenter notes that some operators may have already done
the repair per the SRM and suggests it would be best to state that the
SRMs meet the intent of the AD.
We partially agree with the commenter. We agree with the commenter
that the SRM procedures referenced in the service bulletin are an
appropriate source of service information for doing the repairs
required by the final rule. We have revised paragraph (h) of the final
rule to allow operators to do repairs in accordance with Boeing Service
Bulletin 747-53A2349, Revision 2, as specified in paragraph (k) of the
final rule.
[[Page 59254]]
However, we do not agree to revise paragraph (k) of the final rule
to state that the SRM meets the intent of the final rule because
paragraph (k) specifies to do the repair in accordance with Boeing
Service Bulletin 747-53A2349, Revision 2, which references the SRM.
Therefore, operators that do the repair in accordance with the
applicable SRM referenced in the service bulletin meet the repair
requirement of the final rule and do not need further FAA approval.
Paragraph (k) of the final rule specifies to repair in accordance with
FAA approval only where the service bulletin specifies to contact
Boeing for repair. Thus, operators are required to obtain FAA approval
only for repairs that are beyond the scope of the service bulletin or
SRM. As the commenter noted, the phrase, ``For a repair method to be
approved, the approval must specifically reference this AD,'' applies
only to operators that are required to obtain FAA approval. We have not
revised the final rule in this regard.
Request To Include Effect of AD 2004-07-22 on the NPRM
Two commenters request that the NPRM include the effect of AD 2004-
07-22, amendment 39-13566 (69 FR 18250, April 7, 2004), which mandates
Boeing Document No. D6-35022, ``Supplemental Structural Inspection
Document,'' (SSID) for Model 747 Airplanes, Revision G, dated December
2000. One commenter states that it has done the SSID inspections
required by AD 2004-07-22 and that the NPRM may include inspections
already covered by the SSID inspections. The commenter suggests that,
to prevent duplicate work, the NPRM should identify the paragraphs for
which SSID inspections are acceptable as an alternative method of
compliance (AMOC). The other commenter, the manufacturer, notes that
the SSID includes statements that allow the use of Boeing Service
Bulletin 747-53-2349 inspections in lieu of SSID inspections. The
commenter notes that, because of the NPRM, there will be a requirement
to perform the SSID inspections and the Boeing Service Bulletin 747-53-
2349 inspections without an allowance to use the service bulletin
inspections as a substitute for the SSID inspections. The commenter
contends that it is better to have an operator use the service bulletin
inspections due to the improved level of detailed instructions.
We acknowledge that certain inspections done in accordance with
Boeing Service Bulletin 747-53-2349 may be acceptable as a substitute
for corresponding SSID inspections and vice versa, because inspections
done in accordance with both documents cover common areas. However,
operators must identify the inspections and substantiate that any
substitutions would provide an acceptable level of safety, and we must
approve any substitutions. In order to avoid further delay to the
inspections required by this final rule, we have not revised the final
rule in this regard. Operators may request approval for AMOCs according
to paragraph (m) of this final rule. For AD 2004-07-22, operators may
request approval for AMOCs according to paragraph (g) of that AD.
Explanation of Change Made to This Final Rule
We have simplified paragraphs (h)(1), (h)(2), and (k) of this AD by
referring to the ``Alternative Methods of Compliance (AMOCs)''
paragraph (m) of this final rule for repair methods.
Clarification of AMOC Paragraph
We have revised this final rule to clarify the appropriate
procedure for notifying the principal inspector before using any
approved AMOC on any airplane to which the AMOC applies.
Conclusion
We have carefully reviewed the available data, including the
comments that have been received, and determined that air safety and
the public interest require adopting the AD with the changes described
previously. We have determined that these changes will neither increase
the economic burden on any operator nor increase the scope of the AD.
Costs of Compliance
This AD will affect about 489 airplanes worldwide, and 155
airplanes of U.S. registry. The following table provides the estimated
costs for U.S. operators to comply with this 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 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 DOT Regulatory Policies and
Procedures (44 FR 11034, February 26, 1979); and
(3) 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
[[Page 59255]]
this AD and placed it in the AD docket. See the ADDRESSES section for a
location to examine the regulatory evaluation.
