SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: AD 2021-17-14, Amendment 39-21697 (86 FR
50451, September 9, 2021) (AD 2021-17-14), requires non-destructive
testing on the forward (front) spar vertical stiffener and rib 0 for
any cracking, installation of a doubler to the forward (front) spar and
rib 0 attachment, and repair if necessary. That AD applies to certain
Gulfstream Aerospace LP Model Gulfstream G280 airplanes.
Need for the Correction
As published, the document number of the CAAI AD specified in the
preamble and regulatory text of AD 2021-17-14 is incorrect. The
document number of the CAAI AD is incorrectly cited as ``CAAI AD I-57-
2020-06-01.'' The correct document number should read as, ``CAAI AD
ISR-I-57-2020-06-01.''
Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51
CAAI AD ISR-I-57-2020-06-01, dated January 27, 2021, specifies
procedures for non-destructive testing (high frequency, mid frequency,
and bolt hole eddy current inspections; and a liquid (dye) penetrant
inspection) for cracking on the forward (front) spar vertical stiffener
and rib 0, installation of a doubler to the forward (front) spar and
rib 0 attachment, and repair if necessary. This service information is
reasonably available because the interested parties have access to it
through their normal course of business or by the means identified in
the ADDRESSES section.
Correction of Publication
This document corrects an error and correctly adds the AD as an
amendment to 14 CFR 39.13. Although no other part of the preamble or
regulatory information has been corrected, the FAA is publishing the
entire rule in the Federal Register.
The effective date of this AD remains October 14, 2021.
Since this action only corrects the document number of the CAAI AD,
it has no adverse economic impact and imposes no additional burden on
any person. Therefore, the FAA has
[[Page 52600]]
determined that notice and public procedures are unnecessary.
List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 39
Air transportation, Aircraft, Aviation safety, Incorporation by
reference, Safety.
Adoption of the Correction
Accordingly, pursuant to the authority delegated to me by the
Administrator, the Federal Aviation Administration amends part 39 of
the Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 39) as follows:
PART 39--AIRWORTHINESS DIRECTIVES
0
1. The authority citation for part 39 continues to read as follows:
Authority: 49 U.S.C. 106(g), 40113, 44701.
Sec. 39.13 [Corrected]
0
2. The FAA corrects Sec. 39.13 by correcting the airworthiness
directive published at (86 FR 50451) (October 14, 2021) to read:
2021-17-14 Gulfstream Aerospace LP: Amendment 39-21697; Docket No.
FAA-2021-0459; Project Identifier MCAI-2021-00129-T.
(a) Effective Date
This airworthiness directive (AD) is effective October 14, 2021.
(b) Affected ADs
None.
(c) Applicability
This AD applies to Gulfstream Aerospace LP Model Gulfstream G280
airplanes, certificated in any category, as identified in The Civil
Aviation Authority of Israel (CAAI) AD ISR-I-57-2020-06-01, dated
January 27, 2021 (CAAI AD ISR-I-57-2020-06-01).
(d) Subject
Air Transport Association (ATA) of America Code 57, Wings.
(e) Reason
This AD was prompted by a report that during full-scale fatigue
testing, a crack was found in the area of the attachment of the wing
rib 0 to the front spar. The FAA is issuing this AD to address any
cracking at the area of the wing rib 0 to the front spar, which
could affect the structural integrity of the wing.
(f) Compliance
Comply with this AD within the compliance times specified,
unless already done.
(g) Requirements
Except as specified in paragraph (h) of this AD: Comply with all
required actions and compliance times specified in, and in
accordance with, CAAI AD ISR-I-57-2020-06-01.
(h) Exception to CAAI AD ISR-I-57-2020-06-01
Where CAAI AD ISR-I-57-2020-06-01 requires compliance ``not
later than 5,000 flight cycles,'' this AD requires compliance before
the accumulation of 5,000 total flight cycles since the date of
issuance of the original Israeli airworthiness certificate or the
date of issuance of the original Israeli export certificate of
airworthiness.
(i) No Reporting Requirement
Although the service information referenced in CAAI AD ISR-I-57-
2020-06-01 specifies to submit certain information to the
manufacturer, this AD does not include that requirement.
(j) Additional AD Provisions
The following provisions also apply to this AD:
(1) Alternative Methods of Compliance (AMOCs): The Manager,
Large Aircraft Section, International Validation Branch, FAA, has
the authority to approve AMOCs for this AD, if requested using the
procedures found in 14 CFR 39.19. In accordance with 14 CFR 39.19,
send your request to your principal inspector or responsible Flight
Standards Office, as appropriate. If sending information directly to
the Large Aircraft Section, International Validation Branch, send it

AD. Information may be emailed to: <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#7a43573b2c29573b3328574d494a573b3735393a1c1b1b541d150c"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="c5fce8849396e8848c97e8f2f6f5e884888a8685a3a4a4eba2aab3">[email protected]</span></a>.
Before using any approved AMOC, notify your appropriate principal
inspector, or lacking a principal inspector, the manager of the
responsible Flight Standards Office.
(2) Contacting the Manufacturer: For any requirement in this AD
to obtain instructions from a manufacturer, the instructions must be
accomplished using a method approved by the Manager, Large Aircraft
Section, International Validation Branch, FAA; or CAAI; or CAAI's
authorized Designee. If approved by the CAAI Designee, the approval
must include the Designee's authorized signature.
