14 CFR Part 39

[Docket No. FAA-2011-1250; Directorate Identifier 2010-NM-031-AD; 
Amendment 39-17176; AD 2012-17-13]
RIN 2120-AA64


Airworthiness Directives; The Boeing Company Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain 
The Boeing Company Model 707-100 long body, -200, -100B long body, and 
-100B short body series airplanes; Model 707-300, -300B, -300C, and -
400 series airplanes; and Model 720 and 720B series airplanes. This AD 
was prompted by reports of stress corrosion cracking in the chord 
segments made from 7079 aluminum in the horizontal stabilizer rear 
spar, and potential early fatigue cracking in the chord segments made 
from 7075 aluminum. For certain airplanes, this AD requires using 
redefined flight cycle counts, determining the type of material of the 
horizontal stabilizer, rear spar, and upper and lower chords on the 
inboard and outboard ends of the rear spar; repetitively inspecting for 
cracking of the horizontal stabilizer components; and repairing or 
replacing the chord, or modifying chord segments made from 7079 
aluminum, if necessary. For all airplanes, this AD requires inspecting 
certain structurally significant items, and repairing discrepancies if 
necessary. We are issuing this AD to detect and correct stress 
corrosion and/or potential early fatigue cracking in the horizontal 
stabilizer, which could compromise the structural integrity of the 
stabilizer.

DATES: This AD is effective October 16, 2012.
    The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by 
reference of certain publications listed in the AD as of October 16, 
2012.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Discussion

    We issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR 
part 39 to include an AD that would apply to the specified products. 
That NPRM published in the Federal Register on November 28, 2011 (76 FR 
72863). For certain airplanes, that NPRM proposed to require using 
redefined flight cycle counts, determining the type of material of the 
horizontal stabilizer, rear spar, and upper and lower chords on the 
inboard and outboard ends of the rear spar; repetitively inspecting for 
cracking of the horizontal stabilizer components; and repairing or 
replacing the chord, or modifying the chord segments made from 7079 
aluminum, if necessary. For all airplanes, that NPRM also proposed to 
require inspecting certain structurally significant items, and 
repairing discrepancies if necessary.

Comments

    We gave the public the opportunity to participate in developing 
this AD. The following presents the comment received on the proposal 
(76 FR 72863, November 28, 2011) and the FAA's response.

Request To Correct Certain Fatigue Cracking Assertions

    Boeing reported that the NPRM (76 FR 72863, November 28, 2011), in 
various locations, stated incorrectly that fatigue cracking occurred in 
rear spar chords made from 7075 aluminum. According to Boeing, fatigue 
cracking has been reported in spar chords made from 7079 aluminum only. 
Boeing requested that we revise the NPRM to remove reference to 
``fatigue cracking'' when addressing the failure mode of the rear spar 
chords made from 7075 aluminum.
    We partially agree with the request. Chords made from 7075 aluminum 
have better fatigue characteristics than those made from 7079 aluminum. 
But all metals fatigue to a varying degree. We have therefore revised 
this final rule to characterize these conditions as ``potential early 
fatigue'' to address Boeing's concern and clarify that the accelerated 
fatigue occurrence was a consequence of abnormal use of the airplane as 
used in military touch-and-go training.

Additional Change Made to This AD

    Note 1 to paragraph (i) of the NPRM (76 FR 72863, November 28, 
2011) defined a special detailed inspection. We have removed that note 
in this final rule. A special detailed inspection is defined in Boeing 
707 Alert Service Bulletin A3515, dated December 19, 2007, and it is 
unnecessary to repeat that definition in the AD.

Conclusion

    We reviewed the relevant data, considered the comment received, and 
determined that air safety and the public interest require adopting the 
AD

[[Page 55682]]

with the changes described previously and minor editorial changes. We 
have determined that these minor changes:
     Are consistent with the intent that was proposed in the 
NPRM (76 FR 72863, November 28, 2011) for correcting the unsafe 
condition; and
     Do not add any additional burden upon the public than was 
already proposed in the NPRM (76 FR 72863, November 28, 2011).
    We also determined that these changes will not increase the 
economic burden on any operator or increase the scope of the AD.

Interim Action

    We consider this AD interim action. If final action is later 
identified, we might consider further rulemaking then.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this AD affects 10 airplanes of U.S. registry. The 
following table provides the estimated costs for U.S. operators to 
comply with this AD.

                                                                 Table--Estimated Costs

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

    We have received no definitive data that would enable us to provide 
cost estimates for the on-condition actions specified in 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

    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.
