[Docket No. 93-CE-27-AD; Amendment 39-8991; AD 94-06-02]

 

Airworthiness Directives; Luscombe Model 8 Series Airplanes; 
Correction

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration, DOT.

ACTION: Final rule; correction.

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

SUMMARY: This action makes a correction to Airworthiness Directive (AD) 
94-16-02 concerning Luscombe Model 8 series airplanes, which was 
published in the Federal Register on August 11, 1994 (59 FR 41237). 
That publication inadvertently referenced the existing vertical 
stabilizer forward attach fittings as aluminum. Two of the three 
possible existing fittings are aluminum, but one is made of steel. This 
action changes the AD by deleting reference to aluminum.

EFFECTIVE DATE: September 19, 1994.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms. Lirio Liu, Aerospace Engineer, Los 
Angeles Aircraft Certification Office, FAA, 3229 E. Spring Street, Long 
Beach, California 90806; telephone (310) 988-5229; facsimile (310) 988-
5210.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On August 11,1994, the Federal Aviation 
Administration (FAA) issued AD 94-16-02, Amendment 39-8991 (59 FR 
41237), which applies to Luscombe Model 8 series airplanes that have 
round-tipped vertical stabilizer installations. This AD supersedes AD 
79-25-05, Amendment 39-3630, with a new AD that requires replacing the 
existing vertical stabilizer forward attach fitting, part number (P/N) 
28415, P/N 28444, or P/N 28453, with either Luscombe P/N 28455 
manufactured by the Don Luscombe Aviation History Foundation (DLAHF); a 
welded steel fitting manufactured by the Univair Aircraft Corporation, 
P/N U28444; or an FAA-approved equivalent part.
    The AD inadvertently references the existing part numbers as 
aluminum. Two of the three possible existing fittings are aluminum, but 
one is made of steel. This action changes the AD by deleting reference 
to aluminum.

Need for Correction

    As published, the final regulations have incorrectly referenced the 
existing part number vertical stabilizer fittings as aluminum fittings; 
when in actuality two of the three possible fittings are aluminum and 
the other is steel. The way the final regulations are currently written 
could cause confusion when locating the existing vertical stabilizer 
fitting to accomplish the required replacement.

Correction of Publication

    Accordingly, the publication of August 11, 1994 (59 FR 41237) of 
Amendment 39-8991; AD 94-16-02, which was the subject of FR Doc. 94-
18841, is corrected as follows:
    On page 41237, in the first column, in line 4 of the ``SUMMARY:'' 
section, delete the word ``aluminum''.
    On page 41237, in the second column, in line 10 of the 
``SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION'' section, delete the word ``aluminum''.
    On page 41237, in the third column, in the third line from the top 
of the page, delete the word ``aluminum''.


Sec. 39.13  [Corrected]

    On page 41238, in the second column, in Sec. 39.13, in line 1 of 
paragraph (a) of AD 94-16-02, delete the word ``aluminum''.

    Issued in Kansas City, Missouri, on October 26, 1994.
