14 CFR Part 39
[Docket No. FAA-2011-0588; Directorate Identifier 2010-SW-074-AD;
Amendment 39-16717; AD 2011-12-10]
RIN 2120-AA64
Airworthiness Directives; Robinson Helicopter Company Helicopters
AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.
ACTION: Final rule; correction.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The FAA is correcting an airworthiness directive (AD) that was
published in the Federal Register. That AD applies to Robinson
Helicopter Company (Robinson) Model R22, R22 Alpha, R22 Beta, R22
Mariner, R44, and R44 II helicopters. The paragraph reference in
paragraph (b) of the Compliance section is incorrect. Paragraph (b)
references paragraph (d), when it should reference paragraph (c). This
document corrects that error. Additionally, the word ``inspection'' has
been added in paragraph (b) for clarification. In all other respects,
the original document remains the same.
DATES: The effective date of this final rule is March 5, 2012. The
effective date for AD 2011-12-10 remains July 5, 2011.
Examining the AD Docket: You may examine the AD docket on the
Internet at http://www.regulations.gov; or in person at the Docket
Operations Office between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m., Monday through Friday,
except Federal holidays. The AD docket contains this AD, any
incorporated-by-reference service information, the economic evaluation,
any comments received, and other information. The street address for
the Docket Operations Office (phone: 800-647-5527) is U.S. Department
of Transportation, Docket Operations Office, M-30, West Building Ground
Floor, Room W12-140, 1200 New Jersey Avenue SE., Washington, DC 20590.

helicopters); or Fred Guerin, Aerospace Engineer, Los Angeles Aircraft

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Airworthiness Directive 2011-12-10,
Amendment 39-16717 (76 FR 35330, June 17, 2011), currently includes the
following paragraph (b) in the compliance section:
``(b) If you find any bare metal in the area of the skin-to-spar
bond line, before further flight, inspect the blade by following the
requirements of paragraph (d) of this AD.''
As published, the reference to paragraph (d) is incorrect. The
correct reference is to paragraph (c). Paragraph (c) contains the
inspection requirements, and the incorrect
[[Page 12992]]
reference to paragraph (d) is confusing. We have also added the word
``inspection'' to clarify that the requirements we are referring to are
the inspection requirements, not the compliance times.
No other part of the preamble or regulatory information has been
changed; therefore, only the changed portion of the final rule is being
published in the Federal Register.
