Abstract
The FAA is superseding Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2022-19- 13, which applied to all Airbus Helicopters Model AS355E, AS355F, AS355F1, AS355F2, AS355N, and AS355NP helicopters. AD 2022-19-13 required incorporating into existing maintenance records certain requirements (airworthiness limitations). Since the FAA issued AD 2022- 19-13, a determination was made that new or more restrictive airworthiness limitations are necessary. This AD requires revising the airworthiness limitations section (ALS) of the existing maintenance manual (MM) or instructions for continued airworthiness (ICAs) and the existing approved maintenance or inspection program, as applicable. The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.

[Docket No. FAA-2025-2542; Project Identifier MCAI-2024-00397-R;
Amendment 39-23356; AD 2026-10-16]
RIN 2120-AA64
Airworthiness Directives; Airbus Helicopters
AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The FAA is superseding Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2022-19-
13, which applied to all Airbus Helicopters Model AS355E, AS355F,
AS355F1, AS355F2, AS355N, and AS355NP helicopters. AD 2022-19-13
required incorporating into existing maintenance records certain
requirements (airworthiness limitations). Since the FAA issued AD 2022-
19-13, a determination was made that new or more restrictive
airworthiness limitations are necessary. This AD requires revising the
airworthiness limitations section (ALS) of the existing maintenance
manual (MM) or instructions for continued airworthiness (ICAs) and the
existing approved maintenance or inspection program, as applicable. The
FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these
products.
DATES: This AD is effective July 21, 2026.
The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by
reference of a certain publication listed in this AD as of July 21,
2026.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
The FAA issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14
CFR part 39 to supersede AD 2022-19-13, Amendment 39-22182 (87 FR
57814, September 22, 2022) (AD 2022-19-13). AD 2022-19-13 applied to
all Airbus Helicopters Model AS355E, AS355F, AS355F1, AS355F2, AS355N,
and AS355NP helicopters. The FAA issued AD 2022-19-13 to address the
failure of certain parts, which could result in the loss of control of
the helicopter.
The NPRM was published in the Federal Register on September 15,
2025 (90 FR 44353). The NPRM was prompted by EASA AD 2024-0134, dated
July 10, 2024 (EASA AD 2024-0134) (also referred to as the MCAI),
issued by EASA, which is the Technical Agent for the Member States of
the European Union. The MCAI states that new or more restrictive
airworthiness limitations and repetitive check requirements have been
developed. Additionally, the MCAI advises that the airworthiness
limitations are identified as mandatory for continued airworthiness and
that Airbus Helicopters has issued applicable ALS revisions to specify
new and more restrictive life limits and maintenance tasks, which
include repetitive checks and inspection requirements.
In the NPRM, the FAA proposed to require revising the ALS of the
existing MM or ICAs and the existing approved maintenance or inspection
program, as applicable. The FAA is issuing this AD to prevent failure
of critical parts and primary structural components, which if not
addressed, could result in loss of control of the helicopter.
You may examine the MCAI in the AD docket at <a href="http://regulations.gov">regulations.gov</a> under
Docket No. FAA-2025-2542.
Relationship Between This AD and Other Relevant Rulemaking
EASA AD 2021-0193 notes that the requirements of EASA AD 2010-0006,
dated January 7, 2010 (EASA AD 2010-0006) (which prompted FAA AD 2011-
22-05 R1, Amendment 39-17765 (79 FR 14169, March 13, 2014) (AD 2011-22-
05 R1)); and EASA AD 2015-0094, dated May 29, 2015 (EASA AD 2015-0094)
(which prompted FAA AD 2016-25-20, Amendment 39-18746 (81 FR 94954,
December 27, 2016) (AD 2016-25-20)); have been incorporated into the
applicable ALS specified in EASA AD 2021-0193.
Accordingly, this AD does not supersede AD 2011-22-05 R1 or AD
2016-25-20. Rather, the FAA has determined that a standalone AD is more
appropriate to address the changes in EASA AD 2024-0134, which
superseded EASA AD 2021-0193. Therefore, accomplishment of the required
actions in this AD terminates all of the requirements of AD 2011-22-05
R1 and AD 2016-25-20 for Model AS355E, AS355F, AS355F1, AS355F2,
AS355N, and AS355NP helicopters only.
Discussion of Final Airworthiness Directive
Comments
The FAA received comments from three commenters. The commenters
were the Citizens Rulemaking Alliance and two individuals. The two
individuals supported the NPRM without change. The following presents
the comments received on the NPRM from the Citizens Rulemaking Alliance
and the FAA's response to each comment.
Request To Issue an NPRM or Justify Forgoing Notice and Comment
The Citizens Rulemaking Alliance requested that the FAA either
convert this action to an NPRM with a 30-day delayed effective date or
provide its justification for finding good cause to bypass notice and
comment procedures. 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, the FAA did not change this AD as a result of this comment.
[[Page 36087]]
Request To Comply With the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA)
The Citizens Rulemaking Alliance requested that the FAA revise the
proposed AD to comply with the PRA if reporting is required or remove
any reporting provisions until PRA requirements are satisfied, or make
any reporting provisions voluntary. If reporting is not required, 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 final rule. Therefore, the FAA did not
change this AD as a result of this comment.
Request To Make Incorporation by Reference (IBR) Materials Reasonably
Available
The Citizens Rulemaking Alliance stated that the FAA's current
practices for IBR frequently fail to meet the legal and regulatory
standards for reasonable availability. The commenter called on the FAA
to guarantee that all IBR materials are easily and freely accessible to
the public and affected parties for both commenting and compliance
purposes. The commenter requested the FAA either obtain the copyright
holder's consent to place the IBR material in the public docket or
include a summary of the essential technical steps within the AD text
to allow compliance without purchasing proprietary material. They also
requested that this access be documented in the rulemaking record.
The FAA notes that EASA AD 2024-0134, which is incorporated by
reference in this AD, is available to the public on the EASA website at
ad.easa.europa.eu, as explained in the preamble and regulatory text of
the proposed AD. This material was also posted in the AD docket upon
publication of the NPRM. 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 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 and consider less burdensome
alternatives for small operators.
FAA has considered the AD's impact on small businesses and provides
the following factual basis for its RFA certification.
The Regulatory Flexibility Act of 1980, Public Law 96-354, 94 Stat.
1164 (5 U.S.C. 601-612), as amended by the Small Business Regulatory
Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996 (Public Law 104-121, 110 Stat. 857,
Mar. 29, 1996) and the Small Business Jobs Act of 2010 (Public Law 111-
240, 124 Stat. 2504, Sept. 27, 2010), 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.
Small Entities to Which This AD Applies
The FAA used the definition of small entities in the RFA for this
analysis. The RFA defines small entities as small businesses, small
governmental jurisdictions, or small organizations. In 5 U.S.C. 601(3),
the RFA defines ``small business'' to have the same meaning as ``small
business concern'' under section 3 of the Small Business Act. The Small
Business Act authorizes the Small Business Administration (SBA) to
define ``small business'' by issuing regulations.
The SBA (2023) has established size standards for various types of
economic activities, or industries, under the North American Industry
Classification System (NAICS). These size standards generally define
small businesses based on the number of employees or annual receipts.
Note that the SBA definition of a small business applies to the parent
company and all affiliates as a single entity.
To identify small entities, the FAA first identified the primary
NAICS of the entity or parent company, and then used data from
different sources (e.g., company annual reports, Bureau of
Transportation Statistics) to determine whether the entity meets the
applicable size standard. The FAA provides the estimated number of
small entities (plus 3 individuals) affected by this AD:

RFA Conclusions
While FAA has determined that this AD affects a substantial number
of small entities, the compliance cost relative to annual revenue is
minimal. The estimated compliance cost per entity is a one-time labor
cost of $85 to revise the ALS of the maintenance manual. Therefore, as
provided in section 605(b) and based on the foregoing, the FAA has
determined that the financial impacts of this AD are not
disproportionate to small entities. Therefore, 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 EASA AD 2024-0134. This material specifies
replacing components before exceeding their life limits and
accomplishing all applicable maintenance tasks within thresholds and
intervals specified in the ALS as defined in EASA AD 2024-0134.
Depending on the results of the maintenance tasks, EASA AD 2024-0134
requires accomplishing corrective action(s) or contacting Airbus
Helicopters for approved instructions and accomplishing those
instructions.
Additionally, EASA AD 2024-0134 specifies revising the Aircraft
Maintenance Programme (AMP) by incorporating the limitations, tasks,
and associated thresholds and intervals described in the specified ALS,
as applicable. Revising the AMP constitutes terminating action for the
requirement to record accomplishment of the actions of replacing
components before exceeding their life limits and accomplishing
maintenance tasks within thresholds and intervals specified in the
applicable ALS as specified in EASA AD 2024-0134 for demonstration of
AD compliance on a continued basis.
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 34 helicopters of the 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
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Revise ALS............................ 1 work-hour x $85 per $0 $85 $2,890
hour\1\ = $85.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ FAA estimated operators will incur $85 in costs per labor hour, which is the weighted average fiscal year
(FY) 2026 fully loaded wage of an aircraft mechanic ($69.85) working 60% of the labor hours and a general and
operations manager ($108.15) working 40% of the labor hours. The FAA estimated these wages by taking the
average of the FY 2024 Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) air transportation industry average wage for aircraft
mechanics and general and operations managers (See: Occupational Employment and Wage Statistics Query System,
BLS (May 2024), <a href="http://data.bls.gov/oes/">data.bls.gov/oes/</a>); multiplying each wage by a fringe benefit factor of 1.42 (See: Employer
Cost for Employee Compensation--December 2024, BLS (2024), <a href="http://bls.gov/news.release/archives/ecec_03142025.pdf">bls.gov/news.release/archives/ecec_03142025.pdf</a>);
and adjusting these 2024 wages to 2026 dollars using an implicit Gross Domestic Product (GDP) Price Deflator
of 2.8% (See: Gross Domestic Product: Implicit Price Deflator, FRED (2026) <a href="http://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/GDPDEF">fred.stlouisfed.org/series/GDPDEF</a>).
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
The FAA has determined that 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.
