Background

    The FAA has received a report indicating that, on January 31, 2024, 
a partially disengaged rear engine mount was discovered on an in-
service Model GVII-G600 airplane. The flight crew noticed a visible 
misalignment in the pylon area adjacent to the thrust reverser during a 
preflight walk-around. The misalignment was caused by the upper, aft 
engine mount fastener migrating out of position in the pylon area.
    Follow-on inspection revealed the hollow pin was the only hardware 
holding the aft strut in place, and migration of the hollow pin out of 
position was imminent, which would have resulted in the disconnection 
of the strut from the airplane. The cause of the upper rear engine 
mount failure was determined to be the secondary locking device (cotter 
pin) not being installed, and the separation of the retaining nut from 
the single strut attachment bolt, resulting in the bolt migrating out 
of position. The bolt and nut were found at the bottom of the pylon, 
and the required cotter pin was not located. It was believed that 
during a post-production engine removal and installation performed in a 
Gulfstream 145 Repair Station, using the AMM, the rear engine mount 
fasteners on the airplane side were loosened to aid in engine 
installation. It is probable that the aft upper strut attachment nut 
was not properly reinstalled, and the required cotter pin was not 
installed after the bolt and nut were installed. It was determined that 
maintenance personnel did not fully comply with the AMM procedures that 
were current at the time and anecdotal evidence that shows the 
maintenance personnel requested assistance from the production engine 
installation personnel to install the engine.
    Gulfstream immediately performed technical evaluations on numerous 
airplanes, discovering other non-conforming engine mount hardware 
installations, but confirmed that none would have resulted in failure 
of the engine mount system. However, some of the non-conformances were 
found on engines installed in production. This indicates quality 
escapes exist in both production engine installation and in-service 
installation using the AMM procedures.
    Additionally, an FAA investigation discovered numerous 
discrepancies in the production engine installation procedures, along 
with similar discrepancies in the AMM procedures for installing engines 
post-delivery/post-certificate of airworthiness. The FAA identified 
missing hardware callouts in the engine attachment instruction text, 
engine attachment hardware not shown in the AMM graphics, and 
inconsistencies in AMM image view labeling that could lead to 
misinterpretation of hardware orientation (left and right mirror image 
inconsistencies).
    Failure of any single engine mount, if not addressed, could result 
in the separation of an engine from the airplane and subsequent loss of 
control of the airplane. The FAA is issuing this AD to address the 
unsafe condition on these products.

FAA's Determination

    The FAA is issuing this AD because the agency determined the unsafe 
condition described previously is likely to exist or develop in other 
products of the same type design.

Related Material Under 1 CFR Part 51

    The FAA reviewed Gulfstream GVII-G500 Customer Bulletin No. 092 and 
Gulfstream GVII-G600 Customer Bulletin No. 063, both Revision A, both 
dated April 9, 2024. This material specifies procedures for performing 
a one-time general visual inspection of the hardware at all engine 
mounts, attach fittings, links, and struts; for non-conforming engine 
mount hardware installations (including mis-oriented bolts, nuts, pins, 
and washers; all required hardware; application of torque; and correct 
hardware safety installations). This material also specifies reporting 
findings of non-conforming hardware to Gulfstream and returning non-
conforming hardware to conforming configuration before further flight.
    The FAA also reviewed the following AMM tasks for Chapter 71--
Powerplant, of Gulfstream Aerospace GVII-G500 AMM, Document Number GAC-
AC-GVII-G500-AMM-0001, Revision 18, dated March 29, 2024; and 
Gulfstream Aerospace GVII-G600 AMM, Document

[[Page 48502]]

Number GAC-AC-GVII-G600-AMM-0001, Revision 14, dated March 29, 2024. 
This material contains the following revised maintenance procedures for 
engine removal and installation:
    <bullet> 71-20-02 Engine Mount Hardware--Removal/Installation, 71-
20 Mounts;
    <bullet> 71-21-03 Engine Forward Link Assemblies--Removal/
Installation, 71-21 Front Mounts;
    <bullet> 71-21-04 Forward Engine Mount Assembly--Removal/
Installation, 71-21 Front Mounts;
    <bullet> 71-22-03 Aft Engine Mount Strut Assembly--Removal/
Installation, 71-22 Rear Mounts;
    <bullet> 71-23-05 Engine Thrust Strut--Removal/Installation, 71-23 
Mounts: Support Links and Accessories; and
    <bullet> 71-23-06 Engine Alignment Strut--Removal/Installation, 71-
23 Mounts: Support Links and Accessories.
    These documents are distinct since they apply to different airplane 
models.
    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.

AD Requirements

    This AD requires accomplishing the actions specified in the 
material described previously, except as discussed under ``Differences 
Between this AD and the Referenced Material'' and except for any 
differences identified as exceptions in the regulatory text of this AD.

Differences Between This AD and the Referenced Material

    The applicability of this AD is not limited to airplanes identified 
in paragraph I.A., Effectivity, of Gulfstream GVII-G500 Customer 
Bulletin No. 092 and Gulfstream GVII-G600 Customer Bulletin No. 063, 
both Revision A, both dated April 9, 2024. The unsafe condition was 
originally thought to be the result of improper maintenance procedures 
during post-production engine removal and installation. Investigations 
subsequent to the issuance of the original Gulfstream customer 
bulletins were unable to definitively tie the unsafe condition to the 
removal/installation work and have determined that the unsafe condition 
could have originated during production. Therefore, this AD includes 
airplanes that both have and have not had engines replaced since 
production.
    This AD requires inspecting the engine mount hardware installations 
for conforming hardware and revising the existing AMM to include 
revised maintenance procedures for engine removal and installation. 
Where Gulfstream GVII-G500 Customer Bulletin No. 092 and Gulfstream 
GVII-G600 Customer Bulletin No. 063, both Revision A, both dated April 
9, 2024, state a compliance time of 12 months from the initial issue 
date of February 15, 2024, this AD requires a compliance time of within 
30 days after the effective date of this AD.

Justification for Immediate Adoption and Determination of the Effective 
Date

    Section 553(b)(3)(B) of the Administrative Procedure Act (APA) (5 
U.S.C. 551 et seq.) authorizes agencies to dispense with notice and 
comment procedures for rules when the agency, for ``good cause,'' finds 
that those procedures are ``impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary to 
the public interest.'' Under this section, an agency, upon finding good 
cause, may issue a final rule without providing notice and seeking 
comment prior to issuance. Further, section 553(d) of the APA 
authorizes agencies to make rules effective in less than thirty days, 
upon a finding of good cause.
    An unsafe condition exists that requires the immediate adoption of 
this AD without providing an opportunity for public comments prior to 
adoption. The FAA has found that the risk to the flying public 
justifies forgoing notice and comment prior to adoption of this rule 
because failure of any single engine mount could result in separation 
of the engine from the airplane. Accordingly, notice and opportunity 
for prior public comment are impracticable and contrary to the public 
interest pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(3)(B).
    The compliance time in this AD is shorter than the time necessary 
for the public to comment and for publication of the final rule. In 
addition, the FAA finds that good cause exists pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 
553(d) for making this amendment effective in less than 30 days, for 
the same reasons the FAA found good cause to forgo notice and comment.

Regulatory Flexibility Act

    The requirements of the Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA) do not 
apply when an agency finds good cause pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 553 to adopt 
a rule without prior notice and comment. Because the FAA has determined 
that it has good cause to adopt this rule without notice and comment, 
RFA analysis is not required.

Costs of Compliance

    The FAA estimates that this AD affects 247 airplanes of U.S. 
registry. The FAA estimates the following costs to comply with this AD:

                                                 Estimated Costs
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                                                     Cost per      Cost on U.S.
                Action                         Labor cost           Parts cost        product        operators
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Inspection of engine mount              10 work-hours x $85 per               $0            $850        $209,950
 installation hardware.                  hour = $850.
AMM revision..........................  1 work-hour x $85 per                  0              85          20,995
                                         hour = $85.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The FAA estimates the following costs to do any necessary repairs 
that would be required based on the results of the inspection. The FAA 
has no way of determining the number of aircraft that might need this 
repair:

                                               On-Condition Costs
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
              Action                    Labor cost               Parts cost                Cost per engine
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Engine mount hardware repair.....  1 work-hour x $85     Up to $4,651 *............  Up to $4,736.
                                    per hour = $85.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* Estimate includes two highest-cost hardware locations: thrust strut and link assembly. Although more locations
  are possible, two locations are used in this estimate based on typical fleet findings to date.


[[Page 48503]]

    The FAA has included all known costs in its cost estimate. 
According to the manufacturer, however, some or all of the costs of 
this AD may be covered under warranty, thereby reducing the cost impact 
on affected operators.

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