Abstract

The FAA is superseding emergency Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2018-23-52, which applied to all Leonardo S.p.a. Model AW169 and AW189 helicopters. AD 2018-23-52 required inspecting the nut, cotter pin, lock-wire, and hinge bracket connected to the tail rotor servo-actuator (TRA) feedback lever link, and each connection of the TRA feedback lever link, and repair if necessary. AD 2018-23-52 also required applying a paint stripe or torque seal on the nut and reporting certain information. This AD requires repetitive inspections of the TRA, repetitive inspections and checks of the tail rotor duplex bearings (TR DB), installation of an improved TRA and TR DB, repetitive installations and checks of thermal strips, replacement of the improved TR DB (life limit), and applicable corrective actions, as specified in a European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) AD, which is incorporated by reference. This AD was prompted by a report of an accident of a Model AW169 helicopter, which was observed to have lost yaw control prior to the accident and a determination that certain inspections and checks of the TR DB, installation of an improved TRA and TR DB, certain other actions, and applicable corrective actions are necessary to address the unsafe condition. The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.

Airworthiness Directives; Leonardo S.p.a. Helicopters

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The FAA is superseding emergency Airworthiness Directive (AD) 
2018-23-52, which applied to all Leonardo S.p.a. Model AW169 and AW189 
helicopters. AD 2018-23-52 required inspecting the nut, cotter pin, 
lock-wire, and hinge bracket connected to the tail rotor servo-actuator 
(TRA) feedback lever link, and each connection of the TRA feedback 
lever link, and repair if necessary. AD 2018-23-52 also required 
applying a paint stripe or torque seal on the nut and reporting certain 
information. This AD requires repetitive inspections of the TRA, 
repetitive inspections and checks of the tail rotor duplex bearings (TR 
DB), installation of an improved TRA and TR DB, repetitive 
installations and checks of thermal strips, replacement of the improved 
TR DB (life limit), and applicable corrective actions, as specified in 
a European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) AD, which is 
incorporated by reference. This AD was prompted by a report of an 
accident of a Model AW169 helicopter, which was observed to have lost 
yaw control prior to the accident and a determination that certain 
inspections and checks of the TR DB, installation of an improved TRA 
and TR DB, certain other actions, and applicable corrective actions are 
necessary to address the unsafe condition. The FAA is issuing this AD 
to address the unsafe condition on these products.

DATES: This AD is effective November 22, 2021.
    The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by 
reference of a certain publication listed in this AD as of November 22, 
2021.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    The EASA, which is the Technical Agent for the Member States of the 
European Union, has issued EASA AD 2020-0197, dated September 10, 2020 
(EASA AD 2020-0197), to correct an unsafe condition for all Leonardo 
S.p.A. (formerly Finmeccanica S.p.A., AgustaWestland S.p.A.) Model 
AW169 and AW189 helicopters.
    The FAA issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 
CFR part 39 to supersede Emergency AD 2018-23-52, Product Identifier 
2018-SW-093-AD, dated November 8, 2018 (Emergency AD 2018-23-52). 
Emergency AD 2018-23-52 applied to all Leonardo S.p.a. Model AW169 and 
AW189 helicopters. The NPRM published in the Federal Register on August 
5, 2021 (86 FR 42754). The NPRM was prompted by a report of an accident 
of a Model AW169 helicopter, which was observed to have lost yaw 
control prior to the accident and a determination that certain 
inspections and checks of the TR DB, installation of an improved TRA 
and TR DB, certain other actions, and applicable corrective actions are 
necessary to address the unsafe condition. The NPRM proposed to require 
repetitive inspections of the TRA, repetitive inspections and checks of 
the TR DB, installation of an improved TRA and TR DB, repetitive 
installations and checks of thermal strips, replacement of the improved 
TR DB (life limit), and applicable corrective actions, as specified in 
an EASA AD.
    The FAA is issuing this AD to address failure of the TRA feedback 
lever. This condition could result in loss of tail rotor control and 
subsequent loss of control of the helicopter. See the EASA AD 2020-0197 
for additional background information.

Discussion of Final Airworthiness Directive

Comments

    The FAA gave the public the opportunity to participate in 
developing this final rule. The FAA received no comments on the NPRM or 
on the determination of the cost to the public.

Conclusion

    The FAA reviewed the relevant data and determined that air safety 
and the public interest require adopting this final rule as proposed, 
except for minor editorial changes. The FAA has determined that these 
minor changes:
    <bullet> Are consistent with the intent that was proposed in the 
NPRM for addressing the unsafe condition; and
    <bullet> Do not add any additional burden upon the public than was 
already proposed in the NPRM.

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    EASA AD 2020-0197 requires the following actions:

--Repetitive inspections of the slippage marking of the castellated nut 
installed on the back-end of the affected TRA.
--Repetitive inspections of the roughness and breakaway force of the 
affected TR DB.
--Repetitive installations of a thermal strip on the spacer next to the 
TR DB.
--Repetitive checks of the condition of the thermal strip and the 
indicated temperature.
--Repetitive inspections/checks for particles and additional roughness 
of the TR DB.
--Installation of an improved TRA.
--Installation of an improved TR DB.
--Repetitive replacements of the improved TR DB (life limit).
--An inspection of an affected TR DB if the thermal strip is detached, 
partially detached, or unreadable.
--Reporting information to the manufacturer.

[[Page 57565]]

--Sending parts to the manufacturer.
--Applicable corrective actions.

    Corrective actions include accomplishing instructions to address 
the following findings: Evidence of rotation of an affected TRA nut; 
thermal strip temperatures that exceed specified values; and any 
discrepancies found during the inspection of an affected TR DB. 
Discrepancies include roughness (meaning lack of free and easy 
rotation), measured breakaway force(s) outside the allowed range, any 
wear or other damage (including, but not limited to, broken seals), and 
the presence of particles.
    EASA AD 2020-0197 also prohibits (re)installation of an affected 
TRA and an affected TR DB on a helicopter. EASA AD 2020-0197 also 
specifies, for certain helicopters, terminating action for the 
repetitive inspections of the slippage marking of the castellated nut.
    This material 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.

Differences Between This AD and EASA AD 2020-0197

    EASA AD 2020-0197 requires sending parts to the manufacturer. This 
AD does not require that action.
    EASA AD 2020-0197 specifies the earlier revisions of Leonardo 
S.p.A. Emergency Alert Service Bulletin (EASB) 169-148, Revision D, 
dated August 4, 2020; and Leonardo S.p.A. EASB 189-237, Revision D, 
dated August 4, 2020; are acceptable for compliance for certain 
actions. This AD does not allow credit for the earlier revisions.
    Where Note 1 of EASA AD 2020-0197 allows a non-cumulative tolerance 
of 10 percent to be applied to the compliance times for the actions to 
allow for synchronization of the required actions with other 
maintenance tasks, this AD does not allow that tolerance.

Interim Action

    The FAA considers this AD to be an interim action and further AD 
action might follow.

Costs of Compliance

    The FAA estimates that this AD affects 10 helicopters of U.S. 
registry. The FAA estimates the following costs to comply with this AD:

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

    The FAA estimates that it would take about 1 hour per product to 
comply with the on-condition reporting requirement in this AD. The 
average labor rate is $85 per hour. Based on these figures, the FAA 
estimates the cost of reporting the inspection and check results on 
U.S. operators to be $85 per product.
    The FAA estimates the following costs to do any necessary on-
condition inspections and thermal strip installations that would be 
required based on the results of any required actions. The FAA has no 
way of determining the number of helicopters that might need these on-
condition actions:

      Estimated Costs of On-Condition Inspections and Installations
------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                             Cost per

4 work-hours x $85 per hour = $340....              $0             $340
------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The FAA has received no definitive data that would enable the 
agency to provide cost estimates for the other on-condition actions 
specified in this AD.

Paperwork Reduction Act

    A federal agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not 
required to respond to, nor shall a person be subject to penalty for 
failure to comply with a collection of information subject to the 
requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act unless that collection of 
information displays a current valid OMB control number. The control 
number for the collection of information required by this AD is 2120-
0056. The paperwork cost associated with this AD has been detailed in 
the Costs of Compliance section of this document and includes time for 
reviewing instructions, as well as completing and reviewing the 
collection of information. Therefore, all reporting associated with 
this AD is mandatory. Comments concerning the accuracy of this burden 
and suggestions for reducing the burden should be directed to 
Information Collection Clearance Officer, Federal Aviation 
Administration, 10101 Hillwood Pkwy., Fort Worth, TX 76177-1524.

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.
    The FAA is 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

[[Page 57566]]

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) Will not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska, and
    (3) 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.
