SUMMARY: We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain aircraft equipped with
Honeywell International, Inc. Model KGS200 Mercury2 wide area augmentation system (WAAS)
global navigation satellite sensor units (GNSSU). This AD requires you cease all localizer
performance (LP), localizer performance with vertical guidance (LPV), and satellite based
augmentation system (SBAS) lateral navigation/vertical navigation (LNAV/VNAV) approaches until
a software problem is corrected. This AD was prompted by a report and follow-up investigation of a
software problem that occurred during flight test trials of SBAS-capable aircraft using a similar
Honeywell global positioning system (GPS) sensor and the same software as the Model KGS200
Mercury2 GNSSU. A software problem occurred that could result in misleading information during
LP, LPV, or SBAS LNAV/VNAV approaches. We are issuing this AD to correct the unsafe
condition on these products.
DATES: This AD is effective July 19, 2012.
We must receive comments on this AD by September 4, 2012.
ADDRESSES: You may send comments, using the procedures found in 14 CFR 11.43 and 11.45, by

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Discussion
We received a report that during flight test trials of SBAS-capable aircraft using a similar
Honeywell GPS sensor with the same software as the Honeywell International, Inc. Model KGS200
Mercury2 WAAS GNSSU, a software problem occurred that could result in misleading information
during LP, LPV, or SBAS LNAV/VNAV approaches.
Investigation found the GPS receiver could compute an incorrect ionospheric correction and
error estimate such that the error estimate no longer bounds the error and the downstream monitor
cannot detect it. This can potentially lead to hazardously misleading information.
The software problem is due to a mathematical rounding error, which results in misleading
information.
At this time, the only type-certificated airplanes that the product is installed in is Pilatus PC-
12/47E airplanes.
This condition, if not corrected, could result in misleading information during instrument
meteorological conditions, which could prevent the aircraft from performing safe instrument
approach procedures, causing controlled flight into terrain.
FAA's Determination
We are issuing this AD because we evaluated all the relevant information and determined the
unsafe condition described previously is likely to exist or develop in other products of the same type
design.
AD Requirements
This AD requires incorporating airworthiness limitations and placards that prohibit LP, LPV, and
SBAS LNAV/VNAV approaches until the software problem is corrected.
2
Interim Action
We consider this AD interim action. If and when new software is developed, the FAA will
evaluate this software and may take further rulemaking action.
FAA's Justification and Determination of the Effective Date
An unsafe condition exists that requires the immediate adoption of this AD. The FAA has found
that the risk to the flying public justifies waiving notice and comment prior to adoption of this rule
because this condition, if not corrected, could result in misleading information during instrument
meteorological conditions, which could prevent the aircraft from performing safe instrument
approach procedures, causing controlled flight into terrain. Therefore, we find that notice and
opportunity for prior public comment are impracticable and that good cause exists for making this
amendment effective in less than 30 days.
Comments Invited
This AD is a final rule that involves requirements affecting flight safety and was not preceded by
notice and an opportunity for public comment. However, we invite you to send any written data,
views, or arguments about this AD. Send your comments to an address listed under the ADDRESSES
section. Include the docket number FAA-2012-17129 and Directorate Identifier 2012-CE-027-AD at
the beginning of your comments. We specifically invite comments on the overall regulatory,
economic, environmental, and energy aspects of this AD. We will consider all comments received by
the closing date and may amend this AD because of those comments.
We will post all comments we receive, without change, to http://www.regulations.gov, including
any personal information you provide. We will also post a report summarizing each substantive
verbal contact we receive about this AD.
Costs of Compliance
We estimate that this AD affects 195 GNSSU installed on, but not limited to, PILATUS
AIRCRAFT LTD. Model PILATUS PC-12/47E airplanes of U.S. registry.
We estimate the following costs to comply with this AD:

manufacture and install a placard.
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,
3
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
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),
(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.
List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 39
Air transportation, Aircraft, Aviation safety, Incorporation by reference, Safety.
Adoption of the Amendment
Accordingly, under the authority delegated to me by the Administrator, the FAA amends 14 CFR
part 39 as follows:

Reason: During a ground inspection of an A319 aeroplane in production, it was
discovered that one fastener was missing at stringer (STGR) 39 on the right-
hand (RH) side of FR24 (Section 13-14 side). The hole of the missing fastener
was not drilled. The missing fastener, a 4.8 mm diameter titanium bolt, Part
Number (P/N) EN 6114 V3-7, should connect the cargo door keel beam foot to
the circumferential butt-strap and the section 13-14 lower shell panel. Further
investigations have revealed that the affected fastener has not been installed
on a limited number of aeroplanes in production, due to incorrect production
instructions.
This condition, if not corrected, could impair the structural integrity of the
affected aeroplanes.
For the reasons described above, this AD requires a special detailed
inspection (SDI) of the affected area and, depending on findings, the
accomplishment of applicable corrective actions.

Die sofortige Vollziehung dieses Bescheides wird gemäß § 80 Absatz 2 Satz 1 Nr. 4 der Verwaltungsgerichtsordnung (VwGO) angeordnet.
Begründung
Durch die vorgenannten Mängel ist die Lufttüchtigkeit des Luftfahrtgerätes derart beeinträchtigt, dass es nach Ablauf der genannten Fristen nur in Betrieb genom-
men werden darf, wenn die angeordneten Maßnahmen ordnungsgemäß durchgeführt worden sind. Im Interesse der Sicherheit des Luftverkehrs, das in diesem Fall
das Interesse des Adressaten am Aufschub der angeordneten Maßnahmen überwiegt, ist es erforderlich, die sofortige Vollziehung dieser Lufttüchtigkeitsanweisung
anzuordnen.

Luftfahrt-Bundesamt, Hermann-Blenk-Str. 26, 38108 Braunschweig einzulegen. Ein eventueller Widerspruch hat keine aufschiebende Wirkung. Das Verwaltungsge-
richt Braunschweig, Am Wendentor 7, 38100 Braunschweig, kann auf Antrag nach § 80 Abs. 5 VwGO die aufschiebende Wirkung jedoch ganz oder teilweise wie-
derherstellen bzw. anordnen.
