SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
The FAA issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14
CFR part 39 by adding an AD that would apply to all De Havilland
Aircraft of Canada Limited Model DHC-8 airplanes. The NPRM was
published in the Federal Register on September 29, 2025 (90 FR 46538).
The NPRM was prompted by AD CF-2020-06R1, dated January 7, 2021 (also
referred to as the MCAI), issued by Transport Canada, which is the
aviation authority for Canada. The MCAI states there were findings
related to cracked barrel nuts at the wing front spar and horizontal
stabilizer to vertical stabilizer joint. For those locations, Transport
Canada issued Transport Canada AD CF-2011-24R1 (which corresponds to
FAA AD 2019-20-09, Amendment 39-19762 (84 FR 56680, October 23, 2019))
and Transport Canada AD CF-2015-13R1 (which corresponds to FAA AD 2018-
22-03, Amendment 39-19476 (83 FR 53563, October 24, 2018)) to address
the unsafe condition. Barrel nuts are also installed in other locations
on the airplane. An investigation determined that the cracking is
caused by corrosion from inadequate cadmium plating on the barrel nuts.
This condition, if not addressed, could result in failed barrel nuts
that could compromise the structural integrity of the affected joints
(i.e., of the airplane) and could lead to loss of control of the
airplane.
In the NPRM, the FAA proposed to require repetitive inspections for
cracking and corrosion of the affected barrel nuts and applicable
corrective actions. The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe
condition on these products.
You may examine the MCAI in the AD docket at <a href="http://regulations.gov">regulations.gov</a> under
Docket No. FAA-2025-2558.
Discussion of Final Airworthiness Directive
Comments
The FAA received a comment from the Air Line Pilots Association,
International (ALPA) who supported the NPRM without change.
The FAA received additional comments from the Citizens Rulemaking
Alliance. The following presents the comments received on the NPRM and
the FAA's response to each comment.
Request To Justify Forgoing Notice and Comment or Issue an NPRM
The commenter requested that the FAA provide its justification for
finding good cause to bypass notice and comment procedures and either
convert this action to an NPRM, or stay the effective date to allow
comments. The commenter asserted the FAA has not adequately justified
use of the good cause exemption to bypass notice and comment and the
30-day delayed effective date.
The FAA notes the comment was submitted in response to an NPRM for
which the FAA provided a 45-day comment period. This final rule is
effective 35 days after its publication in the Federal Register.
Therefore, no change to this AD is necessary.
Request To Make Incorporation by Reference (IBR) Materials Reasonably
Available
The Citizens Rulemaking Alliance requested the FAA ensure that IBR
materials or summaries of them are in the public docket and are
accessible for free to the public and affected parties for both
commenting and compliance purposes. The commenter stated that the FAA's
rule must comply with statutory and regulatory requirements for the
reasonable availability of material incorporated by reference.
The FAA's practices comply with 5 U.S.C. 552(a) of the
Administrative Procedure Act and 1 CFR part 51. The FAA makes IBR
materials available in the AD docket when the final rule is published
in the Federal Register, following formal approval of the IBR by the
Office of the Federal Register. Materials may only be posted before the
final rule's publication if they are already publicly available or if
there is written consent from the owner of the IBR material. All
relevant materials incorporated by reference will be
[[Page 33585]]
accessible in the AD docket on Regulations.gov, which the public can
access without registration or fees.
The FAA also provides summaries and access details in the preamble
and regulatory text, makes materials available for inspection at FAA
and National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) offices, offers
publisher contact information, and obtains formal IBR approval from the
Office of the Federal Register. These efforts are intended to ensure
that all IBR materials meet the ``reasonably available'' standard
required by 1 CFR part 51. The FAA did not change this AD as a result
of this comment.
Request To Comply With the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA)
The Citizens Rulemaking Alliance requested that the FAA revise the
AD to comply with the PRA if reporting is required or remove any
reporting provisions until PRA requirements are satisfied. If reporting
is not needed, the commenter requested the FAA clarify that in the AD.
The FAA notes this AD does not require reporting. If an AD were to
require reporting, the preamble of the AD would include a paragraph
titled ``Paperwork Reduction Act'' that would provide the applicable
OMB control number, required PRA statements, and the estimated time to
collect the required information (burden). Any costs associated with
the reporting requirement would be included in the Costs of Compliance
section in the preamble of the AD. Therefore, the FAA did not change
this AD as a result of this comment.
Request To Consider Impact on Small Entities
The Citizens Rulemaking Alliance requested that the FAA either
provide the factual basis for its Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA)
certification that the AD will not have a significant economic impact
on a substantial number of small entities, or prepare an initial
regulatory flexibility analysis.
The FAA provides the following clarification. The RFA of 1980 (5
U.S.C. 601-612), as amended by the Small Business Regulatory
Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996 (Pub. L. 104-121) and the Small
Business Jobs Act of 2010 (Pub. L. 111-240), requires Federal agencies
to consider the effects of the regulatory action on small business and
other small entities and to minimize any significant economic impact.
The term ``small entities'' comprises small businesses and not-for-
profit organizations that are independently owned and operated and are
not dominant in their fields, and governmental jurisdictions with
populations of less than 50,000.
This AD will affect nine domestic entities, of which four are small
business entities. The table below displays the industries of the small
entities, their average annual revenue, and the AD's estimated cost
burden relative to average annual revenue.

\1\ North American Industrial Classification System.
While the FAA has determined that this AD affects a number of small
entities, the compliance cost of the AD relative to each small entity's
annual revenue is minimal. The FAA estimates the total cost per
affected airplane to be $1,105 (13 work-hours x $85 per work-hour),
which is less than 2% of the average small entity's annual revenue
based on the number of affected airplanes in their fleet. Therefore, as
provided in section 605(b), the FAA certifies this AD will not result
in a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small
entities. The FAA did not change this AD as a result of this comment.
Conclusion
These products have been approved by the civil aviation authority
of another country and are approved for operation in the United States.
Pursuant to the FAA's bilateral agreement with this State of Design
Authority, that authority has notified the FAA of the unsafe condition
described in the MCAI referenced above. The FAA reviewed the relevant
data, considered any comments received, and determined that air safety
requires adopting this AD as proposed. Accordingly, the FAA is issuing
this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products. Except for
minor editorial changes, this AD is adopted as proposed in the NPRM.
None of the changes will increase the economic burden on any operator.
Material Incorporated by Reference Under 1 CFR Part 51
The FAA reviewed De Havilland Aircraft of Canada Limited Service
Bulletin 8-05-11, dated April 29, 2022. This material specifies
procedures for detailed inspections for cracks and corrosion of the
barrel nuts at the flight compartment windshield side posts, the nose
landing gear trunnion plate assemblies, nacelle lower longeron
attachments, the front, mid and rear spar horizontal stabilizer to
vertical stabilizer attachments, the bathtub fittings attachments, the
wing rib YW23.858 assemblies, and at the wing rib YW42.00 assemblies,
and applicable corrective actions (e.g., repairs or replacement).
The FAA also reviewed De Havilland Aircraft of Canada Limited
Service Bulletin 84-27-73, dated May 8, 2019; and De Havilland Aircraft
of Canada Limited Service Bulletin 8-27-121, dated July 30, 2019. This
material specifies procedures, for a detailed inspection for cracks and
corrosion of the barrel nuts, having part number (P/N) DSC228-4, at the
rudder pedal adjustment mechanism, and applicable corrective actions
(i.e., replacement of barrel nuts, having P/N DSC228-4, with barrel
nuts, having P/N B0203073-4). These documents are distinct since they
apply to different airplane models.
The FAA also reviewed De Havilland Aircraft of Canada Limited
Service Bulletin 8-27-122, dated July 18, 2019. This material specifies
procedures for a detailed inspection for cracks and corrosion of the
barrel nuts, having P/N DSC228-5, at the control attachment fittings,
and applicable corrective actions (i.e., replacement of barrel nuts,
[[Page 33586]]
having P/N DSC228-5, with barrel nuts, having P/N B0203073-5).
The FAA also reviewed De Havilland Aircraft of Canada Limited
Service Bulletin 84-05-02, dated April 29, 2022. This material
specifies procedures for detailed inspections for cracks and corrosion
of the barrel nuts at the flight compartment windshield side posts, the
vertical stabilizer pitch feel trim frame, the front and rear spar wing
to fuselage attachment joint struts and fittings, and the bathtub
fitting attachments, and applicable corrective actions (e.g., repairs
or replacement).
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.
Costs of Compliance
The FAA estimates that this AD affects 91 airplanes of U.S.
registry. The FAA estimates the following costs to comply with this AD:
Estimated Costs for Required Actions
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Labor cost Parts cost Cost per product Cost on U.S. operators
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Up to 13 work-hours x $85 per hour = $0 Up to $1,105.............. Up to $100,555.
$1,105.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The FAA estimates the following costs to do any necessary on-
condition actions that would be required based on the results of any
required actions. The FAA has no way of determining the number of
aircraft that might need these on-condition actions:
Estimated Costs of On-Condition Actions
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Labor cost Parts cost Cost per product
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Up to 8 work-hours x $85 per hour * $0 Up to $680.
= $680.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
* The FAA has received no definitive data on which to base the cost
estimates for the parts 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.
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,
(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.
