14 CFR Part 39
[Docket No. FAA-2005-22033; Directorate Identifier 2004-NM-218-AD;
Amendment 39-14391; AD 2005-24-11]
RIN 2120-AA64
Airworthiness Directives; Empresa Brasileira de Aeronautica S.A.
(EMBRAER) Model EMB-135 Airplanes and Model EMB-145, -145ER, -145MR, -
145LR, -145XR, -145MP, and -145EP Airplanes
AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Department of
Transportation (DOT).
ACTION: Final rule; correction.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The FAA is correcting a typographical error in an existing
airworthiness directive (AD) that was published in the Federal Register
on December 5, 2005 (70 FR 72363). The error resulted in an incorrect
reference to the effective date of Brazilian airworthiness directive
2003-01-03R1. This AD applies to certain EMBRAER Model EMB-135 and
Model EMB-145 series airplanes. This AD is superseding an existing AD
that currently requires repetitive inspections of the spring cartridges
of the elevator gust lock system to determine if the lock washer
projection correctly fits the slots in the cartridge flange, and
corrective action if necessary, for certain airplanes. This AD retains
the requirements of the existing AD and adds a requirement for final
terminating action for all affected airplanes.
DATES: Effective January 9, 2006.
ADDRESSES: The AD docket contains the proposed AD, comments, and any
final disposition. You may examine the AD docket on the Internet at
http://dms.dot.gov, or in person at the Docket Management Facility
office between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m., Monday through Friday, except Federal
holidays. The Docket Management Facility office (telephone (800) 647-
5227) is located on the plaza level of the Nassif Building at the U.S.
Department of Transportation, 400 Seventh Street SW., room PL-401,
Washington, DC. This docket number is FAA-2005-22033; the directorate
identifier for this docket is 2004-NM-218-AD.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On November 18, 2005, the FAA issued AD
2005-24-11, amendment 39-14391 (70 FR 72363, December 5, 2005), for
certain EMBRAER Model EMB-135BJ, -135ER, -135KE, -135KL, -135LR, and
Model EMB-145, -145ER, -145MR, -145LR, -145XR, -145MP, and -145EP
airplanes. That AD requires repetitive inspections of the spring
cartridges of the elevator gust lock system to determine if the lock
washer projection correctly fits the slots in the cartridge flange, and
corrective action if necessary. That AD also adds a requirement for
final terminating action for all affected airplanes.
As published, AD 2005-24-11 cited Brazilian airworthiness directive
2003-01-03R1, which was issued showing an incorrect effective date of
July 26, 2004. The Departmento de Aviacao Civil (DAC), which is the
airworthiness authority for Brazil, has corrected the effective date of
Brazilian airworthiness directive 2003-01-03R1 to read August 26, 2004.
No other part of the regulatory information has been changed;
therefore, the final rule is not republished in the Federal Register.
The effective date of this AD remains January 9, 2006.
