Airworthiness Directives; The Boeing Company Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

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

SUMMARY: We propose to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for 
certain The Boeing Company Model 737-100, -200, -200C, -300, -400, and 
-500 series airplanes. This proposed AD was prompted by reports of 
cracks in fuselage frames, and a report of a missing strap that was not 
installed on a fuselage frame during production. This proposed AD would 
require an inspection to determine if the strap adjacent to a certain 
stringer is installed, and repair if missing; repetitive inspections of 
the frame for cracking or a severed frame web; and related 
investigative and corrective actions if necessary. This proposed AD 
also provides optional actions to terminate certain repetitive 
inspections. We are proposing this AD to detect and correct missing 
fuselage frame straps and frame cracking that can result in severed 
frames. Continued operation of the airplane with multiple adjacent 
severed frames, or the combination of a severed frame and fuselage skin 
chemical mill cracks, can result in uncontrolled decompression of the 
airplane.

DATES: We must receive comments on this proposed AD by August 14, 2014.

Discussion

    We have received reports of fuselage frame cracking, and a report 
of a missing strap that was not installed on a fuselage frame during 
production. One report was a crack in the frame at station 328 and a 
crack that severed the frame at station 360 on the right side of an 
airplane that had 59,756 total flight cycles. The frame web and the 
failsafe chord were completely severed.
    We have received ten reports of cracks in the frames at station 328 
between stringers S-20R and S-21R on Model 737-200, 737-300, and 737-
500 series airplanes that had accumulated between 43,581 and 73,655 
total flight cycles. These cracks were in the frame web at an open tool 
hole, in the frame web at the end fastener in the inner chord, and in 
the frame web notch. The cracks were from 0.3 inch to 3.0 inches long.
    We have also received 14 reports of cracks in the frames at station 
360 between stringers S-19R and S-21R on Model 737-200 and 737-300 
series airplanes that had accumulated between 42,183 and 66,588 total 
flight cycles. These cracks were in the frame web at an open tool hole, 
in the frame web at an insulation blanket stud hole, in the frame web 
at an end fastener in the doubler, and in the inner flange at the end 
fastener in the doubler. The cracks were from 2.5 inches long to cracks 
that severed the frame web and fail-safe chord.
    We have received a report of three cracks in the frame at station 
380 between stringers S-18R and S-20R on a Model 737-300 series 
airplane with 32,218 total flight cycles. Cracks were in the frame 
inner flange at fasteners common to the bulkhead support angle. One of 
the three cracks was also in the doubler.
    We have received a report of a strap that was not installed on the 
frame at station 312 adjacent to stringer S-22R on a Model 737-400 
series airplane with 24,037 total flight cycles. Investigation of the 
drawings determined that this was an incorrect frame configuration and 
that the strap should have been installed.
    Missing fuselage frame straps and frame cracking can result in 
severed frames. Continued operation of the airplane with multiple 
adjacent severed frames, or the combination of a severed frame and 
fuselage skin chemical mill cracks, can result in uncontrolled 
decompression of the airplane.

Relevant Service Information

    We reviewed Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 737-53A1323, dated 
December 6, 2013. For information on the procedures and compliance 
times, see this service information at http://www.regulations.gov by 
searching for and locating Docket No. FAA 2014-0346.

[[Page 36673]]

FAA's Determination

    We are proposing this AD because we evaluated all the relevant 
information and determined the unsafe condition described previously is 
likely to exist or develop in other products of the same type design.

Proposed AD Requirements

    This proposed AD would require an inspection to determine if the 
strap adjacent to a certain stringer is installed, and repair if 
missing; repetitive inspections of the frame for cracking or a severed 
frame web; and related investigative and corrective actions if 
necessary. This proposed AD also provides optional actions to terminate 
the repetitive inspections.
    The phrase ``related investigative actions'' is used in this 
proposed AD. ``Related investigative actions'' are follow-on actions 
that (1) are related to the primary actions, and (2) further 
investigate the nature of any condition found. Related investigative 
actions in an AD could include, for example, inspections.
    The phrase ``corrective actions'' is used in this proposed AD. 
``Corrective actions'' are actions that correct or address any 
condition found. Corrective actions in an AD could include, for 
example, repairs.

Differences Between This Proposed AD and the Service Information

    Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 737-53A1323, dated December 6, 2013, 
specifies to contact the manufacturer for instructions on how to repair 
certain conditions, but this proposed AD would require repairing those 
conditions in one of the following ways:
     In accordance with a method that we approve; or
     Using data that meet the certification basis of the 
airplane, and that have been approved by the Boeing Commercial 
Airplanes Organization Designation Authorization (ODA) whom we have 
authorized to make those findings.
    Tables 13 through 15 in paragraph 1.E., ``Compliance,'' of Boeing 
Alert Service Bulletin 737-53A1323, dated December 6, 2013, specify 
post-modification inspections at certain locations, which may be used 
in support of compliance with section 121.1109(c)(2) or 129.109(b)(2) 
of the Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR 121.1109(c)(2) or 
129.109(b)(2)). However, this NPRM does not propose to require those 
post-modification inspections. This difference has been coordinated 
with Boeing.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this proposed AD affects 417 airplanes of U.S. 
registry.
    We estimate the following costs to comply with this proposed AD:

                                                 Estimated Costs

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

    We have received no definitive data that would enable us to provide 
cost estimates for certain on-condition actions specified in this 
proposed AD. However, we estimate the following costs to do any 
necessary repairs of the station 328 frame and the station 360 frame. 
We have no way of determining the number of aircraft that might need 
these repairs:

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.
    We are 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 proposed 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

    We 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) Is not a ``significant rule'' under the DOT Regulatory Policies 
and Procedures (44 FR 11034, February 26, 1979),
    (3) Will not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska, and
    (4) 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.
