[FR Doc. 06-5739 Filed 6-27-06; 8:45 am] SUMMARY: The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for Goodrich evacuation
BILLING CODE 4910-13-P systems approved under TSO-C69b and installed on certain Airbus Model A330-200 and -300 series
airplanes, Model A340-200 and -300 series airplanes, and Model A340-541 and -642 airplanes. This
AD requires inspecting to determine the part number of the pressure relief valves on the affected
Goodrich evacuation systems, and corrective action if necessary. This AD results from a report
indicating that, during maintenance testing, the pressure relief valves on the affected Goodrich
evacuation systems did not seal when activated, which caused the pressure in the escape slide/raft to
drop below the minimum allowable raft mode pressure. We are issuing this AD to prevent loss of
pressure in the escape slides/rafts after an emergency evacuation, which could result in inadequate
buoyancy to support the raft's passenger capacity during ditching, and increase the chance for injury
to raft passengers.
DATES: This AD becomes effective July 17, 2006.
The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by reference of a certain
publication listed in the AD as of July 17, 2006.

§ 39.13 [Amended]
Applicability
2. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) amends § 39.13 by adding the following new
airworthiness directive (AD):
(c) This AD applies to Goodrich Evacuation Systems Approved Under Technical Standard Order
(TSO) TSO-C69b, as installed on Airbus Model A330-201, -202, -203, -223, -243, -301, -321, -322, -

Model A340-541 and -642 airplanes; certificated in any category.
Unsafe Condition
(d) This AD results from a report indicating that, during maintenance testing, the pressure relief
valves of certain Goodrich evacuation systems did not seal when activated, which allowed the
pressure in the slide/raft to drop below the minimum allowable raft mode pressure. We are issuing
this AD to prevent loss of pressure in the escape slides/rafts after an emergency evacuation, which
could result in inadequate buoyancy to support the raft's passenger capacity during ditching, and
increase the chance for injury to raft passengers.
Compliance
(e) You are responsible for having the actions required by this AD performed within the
compliance times specified, unless the actions have already been done.
Inspection
(f) Within 36 months after the effective date of this AD: Perform an inspection to determine the
part number (P/N) of the pressure relief valve on the Goodrich evacuation systems in accordance with
the Accomplishment Instructions of Goodrich Service Bulletin 25-355, dated July 25, 2005.

Compliance: As indicated below, unless already accomplished.
Background: Some NLG and nose gear selector valves, part number 601R75146-1 (Tactair part
number 750006000), may have been incorrectly lock-wired and/or incorrectly torqued
during assembly. This condition can lead to the end cap backing off, with consequent
damage to a seal and internal leakage within the valve. Subsequently, if electrical power
is transferred or removed from the aircraft before the NLG safety pin is installed, any
pressure, including residual pressure, in the No. 3 hydraulic system can result in an
uncommanded NLG retraction.
Although there have been no such cases reported on the Challenger models covered by
this directive, there have been five cases reported on CRJ (CL600-2B19) aircraft, the
most recent of which resulted in the collapse of the NLG at the departure gate.

Request To Provide Instructions on How to Make the Engine Airworthy We prepared a summary of the costs to comply with this AD and placed it in the AD Docket.
You may get a copy of this summary at the address listed under ADDRESSES.
The same commenter requests that we provide instructions on how to make the engine airworthy.

provided on how to make the engine airworthy. Air transportation, Aircraft, Aviation safety, Safety.
We partially agree. While there is no way to make the removed tie bolts airworthy, we reworded
the AD to include a statement that the removed tie bolts be replaced with tie bolts with P/Ns that are Adoption of the Amendment
not listed in Table 1 of the AD.
Accordingly, under the authority delegated to me by the Administrator, the Federal Aviation
Conclusion Administration amends 14 CFR part 39 as follows:
We have carefully reviewed the available data, including the comments received, and determined PART 39–AIRWORTHINESS DIRECTIVES
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 1. The authority citation for part 39 continues to read as follows:
nor increase the scope of the AD.
Authority: 49 U.S.C. 106(g), 40113, 44701.
Costs of Compliance
§ 39.13 [Amended]
About 700 RRC 250-B and 250-C series turboprop and turboshaft engines with affected P/Ns of
gas producer rotor assembly tie bolts manufactured by EXTEX Ltd., Pacific Sky Supply Inc., Rolls- 2. The FAA amends § 39.13 by adding the following new airworthiness directive:
Royce Corporation (RRC), and Superior Air Parts Inc., installed on aircraft of U.S. registry, will be
affected by this AD. We also estimate that it will take about 20 workhours per engine to perform the
actions, and that the average labor rate is $65 per workhour. Required parts will cost about $421 per
engine. Based on these figures, we estimate the total cost of the AD to U.S. operators to be
$1,204,700.
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.
