Airworthiness Directives; Dassault Aviation Airplanes

Issuing agencies

Abstract

The FAA proposes to supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2024-15-04, which applies to certain Dassault Aviation Model FALCON 7X airplanes. AD 2024-15-04 requires revising the existing maintenance or inspection program, as applicable, to incorporate new or more restrictive airworthiness limitations. Since the FAA issued AD 2024-15- 04, the FAA has determined that new or more restrictive airworthiness limitations are necessary. This proposed AD would continue to require certain actions in AD 2024-15-04 and would require revising the existing maintenance or inspection program, as applicable, to incorporate new or more restrictive airworthiness limitations. The FAA is proposing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.

Airworthiness Directives; Dassault Aviation Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

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

SUMMARY: The FAA proposes to supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD) 
2024-15-04, which applies to certain Dassault Aviation Model FALCON 7X 
airplanes. AD 2024-15-04 requires revising the existing maintenance or 
inspection program, as applicable, to incorporate new or more 
restrictive airworthiness limitations. Since the FAA issued AD 2024-15-
04, the FAA has determined that new or more restrictive airworthiness 
limitations are necessary. This proposed AD would continue to require 
certain actions in AD 2024-15-04 and would require revising the 
existing maintenance or inspection program, as applicable, to 
incorporate new or more restrictive airworthiness limitations. The FAA 
is proposing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.

Background

    The FAA issued AD 2024-15-04, Amendment 39-22795 (89 FR 73264, 
September 10, 2024) (AD 2024-15-04), for certain Dassault Aviation 
Model FALCON 7X airplanes. AD 2024-15-04 was prompted by an MCAI 
originated by EASA, which is the Technical Agent for the Member States 
of the European Union. EASA issued EASA AD 2024-0033, dated January 31, 
2024 (EASA AD 2024-0033), to correct an unsafe condition.
    AD 2024-15-04 requires revising the existing maintenance or 
inspection program, as applicable, to incorporate new or more 
restrictive airworthiness limitations, as specified in Dassault Falcon 
7X Maintenance Manual, Airworthiness Limitations, Chapter 5-40 (DGT 
107838), Revision 12, dated June 2023. The FAA issued AD 2024-15-04 to 
address reduced structural integrity and reduced control of the 
airplane due to the failure of system components.
    AD 2024-15-04 specifies that accomplishing the revision required by 
that AD terminates certain requirements of AD 2014-16-23, Amendment 39-
17947 (79 FR 52545, September 4, 2014) (AD 2014-16-23). This proposed 
AD would therefore continue to allow that terminating action.

Actions Since AD 2024-15-04 Was Issued

    Since the FAA issued AD 2024-15-04, EASA superseded EASA AD 2024-
0033 with EASA AD 2025-0122, dated May 28, 2025, which in turn was 
superseded by EASA AD 2025-0229, dated October 20, 2025 (EASA AD 2025-
0229). Subsequently, EASA superseded EASA AD 2025-0229 with EASA AD 
2026-0171, dated September 4, 2026 (EASA AD 2026-0171) (also referred 
to as the MCAI), for all Dassault Aviation Model FALCON 7X airplanes. 
Airplanes with an original airworthiness certificate or original export 
certificate of airworthiness issued after September 1, 2026, must 
comply with the airworthiness limitations specified as part of the 
approved type design and referenced on the type certificate data sheet; 
this proposed AD therefore does not include those airplanes in the 
applicability. The MCAI states that new or more restrictive 
airworthiness limitations have been developed, as specified in Dassault 
Falcon 7X Maintenance Manual, Airworthiness Limitations, Chapter 5-40 
(DGT 107838), Revision 15, dated June 2026.
    The FAA is proposing 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-2026-13803.

Material Incorporated by Reference Under 1 CFR Part 51

    EASA AD 2026-0171 specifies new or more restrictive airworthiness 
limitations for airplane structures and safe life limits.
    This proposed AD would also require EASA AD 2024-0033, which the 
Director of the Federal Register approved for incorporation by 
reference as of October 15, 2024 (89 FR 73264, September 10, 2024).
    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.

FAA's Determination

    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 is issuing this NPRM 
after determining that the unsafe condition described previously is 
likely to exist or develop in other products of the same type design.

Proposed AD Requirements in This NPRM

    This proposed AD would retain certain requirements of AD 2024-15-
04. This proposed AD would also require revising the existing 
maintenance or inspection program, as applicable, to incorporate 
additional new or more restrictive airworthiness limitations, which are 
specified in EASA AD 2026-0171 already described, as proposed for 
incorporation by reference. Any differences with EASA AD 2026-0171 are 
identified as exceptions in the regulatory text of this proposed AD.
    This proposed AD would require revisions to certain operator

[[Page 70036]]

maintenance documents to include new actions (e.g., inspections) and 
Critical Design Configuration Control Limitations (CDCCLs). Compliance 
with these actions and CDCCLs is required by 14 CFR 91.403(c). For 
airplanes that have been previously modified, altered, or repaired in 
the areas addressed by this proposed AD, the operator may not be able 
to accomplish the actions described in the revisions. In this 
situation, to comply with 14 CFR 91.403(c), the operator must request 
approval for an alternative method of compliance (AMOC) according to 
paragraph (n)(1) of this proposed AD.

Explanation of Required Compliance Information

    In the FAA's ongoing efforts to improve the efficiency of the AD 
process, the FAA developed a process to use some civil aviation 
authority (CAA) ADs as the primary source of information for compliance 
with requirements for corresponding FAA ADs. The FAA has been 
coordinating this process with manufacturers and CAAs. As a result, the 
FAA proposes to retain the Incorporation by Reference (IBR) of EASA AD 
2024-0033 and incorporate EASA AD 2026-0171 by reference in the FAA 
final rule. This proposed AD would, therefore, require compliance with 
EASA AD 2024-0033 and EASA AD 2026-0171 through that incorporation, 
except for any differences identified as exceptions in the regulatory 
text of this proposed AD. Using common terms that are the same as the 
heading of a particular section in EASA AD 2024-0033 or EASA AD 2026-
0171 does not mean that operators need comply only with that section. 
For example, where the AD requirement refers to ``all required actions 
and compliance times,'' compliance with this proposed AD requirement is 
not limited to the section titled ``Required Action(s) and Compliance 
Time(s)'' in EASA AD 2024-0033 or EASA AD 2026-0171. Material required 
by EASA AD 2024-0033 is available at <a href="http://regulations.gov">regulations.gov</a> by searching for 
and locating Docket No. FAA-2024-1290, and material required by EASA AD 
2026-0171 for compliance will be available at <a href="http://regulations.gov">regulations.gov</a> by 
searching for and locating Docket No. FAA-2026-13803 after the FAA 
final rule is published.

Airworthiness Limitation ADs Using the New Process

    The FAA's process of incorporating by reference MCAI ADs as the 
primary source of information for compliance with corresponding FAA ADs 
has been limited to certain MCAI ADs (primarily those with service 
bulletins as the primary source of information for accomplishing the 
actions required by the FAA AD). However, the FAA is now expanding the 
process to include MCAI ADs that require a change to airworthiness 
limitation documents, such as airworthiness limitation sections.
    For these ADs that incorporate by reference an MCAI AD that changes 
airworthiness limitations, the FAA requirements are unchanged. 
Operators must revise the existing maintenance or inspection program, 
as applicable, to incorporate the information specified in the new 
airworthiness limitation document. The airworthiness limitations must 
be followed according to 14 CFR 91.403(c) and 91.409(e).
    The previous format of the airworthiness limitation ADs included a 
paragraph that specified that no alternative actions (e.g., 
inspections), intervals, or CDCCLs may be used unless the actions, 
intervals, and CDCCLs are approved as an AMOC in accordance with the 
procedures specified in the AMOCs paragraph under ``Additional AD 
Provisions.'' This new format includes a ``New Provisions for 
Alternative Actions, Intervals, and CDCCLs'' paragraph that does not 
specifically refer to AMOCs, but operators may still request an AMOC to 
use an alternative action, interval, or CDCCL action or interval.

Costs of Compliance

    The FAA estimates that this AD, if adopted as proposed, would 
affect 161 airplanes of U.S. registry. The FAA estimates the following 
costs to comply with this proposed AD:
    The FAA estimates the total cost per operator for the retained 
actions from AD 2024-15-04 to be $7,650 (90 work-hours x $85 per work-
hour).
    The FAA has determined that revising the existing maintenance or 
inspection program takes an average of 90 work-hours per operator, 
although the agency recognizes that this number may vary from operator 
to operator. Since operators incorporate maintenance or inspection 
program changes for their affected fleet(s), the FAA has determined 
that a per-operator estimate is more accurate than a per-airplane 
estimate.
    The FAA estimates the total cost per operator for the new proposed 
actions to be $7,650 (90 work-hours x $85 per work-hour).

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 determined that this proposed AD would not have federalism 
implications under Executive Order 13132. This proposed AD would 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 this proposed 
regulation:
    (1) Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under Executive 
Order 12866,
    (2) Would not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska, and
    (3) Would not have a significant economic impact, positive or 
negative, on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria 
of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.
