Airworthiness Directives; Airbus Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

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

SUMMARY: We propose to supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2013-20-
11, for all Airbus Model A318, A319, A320, and A321 series airplanes. 
AD

[[Page 3062]]

2013-20-11 currently requires modifying the passenger emergency oxygen 
container assembly. Since we issued AD 2013-20-11, we have determined 
that the unsafe condition also affects oxygen containers labeled ``DAe 
Systems.'' This proposed AD would expand the affected group of oxygen 
containers to include those labeled ``DAe Systems.'' We are proposing 
this AD to prevent a high temperature oxygen generator and mask from 
falling down and possibly resulting in an ignition source in the 
passenger compartment, injury to passengers, and reduced availability 
of supplemental oxygen.

DATES: We must receive comments on this proposed AD by March 7, 2016.

Discussion

    On September 17, 2013, we issued AD 2013-20-11, Amendment 39-17617 
(78 FR 64162, October 28, 2013). AD 2013-20-11 requires modifying the 
passenger emergency oxygen container assembly on all Model A318, A319, 
A320, and A321 series airplanes.
    Since we issued AD 2013-20-11, Amendment 39-17617 (78 FR 64162, 
October 28, 2013), we have determined that the unsafe condition also 
affects oxygen containers labeled ``DAe Systems.''
    The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), which is the Technical 
Agent for the Member States of the European Union, has issued EASA AD 
2014-0207, dated September 16, 2014 (referred to after this as the 
Mandatory Continuing Airworthiness Information, or ``the MCAI''), to 
correct an unsafe condition. The MCAI states:

    It was determined that oxygen generators, installed on a 
specific batch of Type 1 (22 min) passenger emergency oxygen 
container assemblies, may become detached by extreme pulling of the 
mask tube at the end of oxygen supply. Investigations revealed that 
such detachment can be caused by the increase in temperature towards 
the end of the generator operation, which may weaken the plastic 
housing in the attachment area of the bracket.
    This condition, if not corrected, could make the rivets slip 
through the plastic housing, causing a `hot' oxygen generator and 
mask to fall down, possibly resulting in injury to passengers.
    To address this potential unsafe condition, EASA issued AD 2012-
0055 (later revised) [http://ad.easa.europa.eu/blob/easa_ad_2012_0055_R1_superseded.pdf/AD_2012-0055R1_1] [which 
corresponds to FAA AD 2013-20-11, Amendment 39-17617 (78 FR 64162, 
October 28, 2013)] to require modification of the affected oxygen 
container assemblies. That [EASA] AD also prohibited installation of 
unmodified containers on any aeroplane as replacement parts.
    Since that [EASA] AD was issued, it was found that the affected 
containers have not only been marked with company name B/E 
Aerospace, as was specified, but also, for a brief period, with the 
former company name DAe Systems.
    For the reason described above, this [EASA] AD retains the 
requirements of EASA AD 2012-0055R1, which is superseded, and 
expands the affected group of containers to include those that have 
the name ``DAe Systems'' on the identification plate.
    This [EASA] AD also clearly separates the serial number (s/n) 
groups of containers into those manufactured by B/E Aerospace and 
those manufactured by DAe Systems, for which additional compliance 
time is provided.

    You may examine the MCAI in the AD docket on the Internet at http://www.regulations.gov by searching for and locating Docket No. FAA-2015-
8463.

course of business or by the means identified in the ADDRESSES section.

FAA's Determination and Requirements of This Proposed AD

    This product has been approved by the aviation authority of another 
country, and is approved for operation in the United States. Pursuant 
to our bilateral agreement with the State of Design Authority, we have 
been notified of the unsafe condition described in the MCAI and service 
information referenced above. We are proposing this AD because we 
evaluated all pertinent information and determined an unsafe condition 
exists and is likely to exist or develop on other products of these 
same type designs.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this proposed AD affects 4 airplanes of U.S. 
registry.
    The actions required by AD 2013-20-11, Amendment 39-17617 (78 FR 
64162, October 28, 2013), and retained in this proposed AD take about 2 
work-hours per product, at an average labor rate of $85 per work-hour. 
Based on these figures, the estimated cost of the actions that are 
required by AD 2013-20-11 is $170 per product.
    We also estimate that it would take about 2 work-hours per product 
to comply with the basic requirements of this proposed AD. The average 
labor rate is $85 per work-hour. Based on these figures, we estimate 
the cost of this proposed AD on U.S. operators to be $680, or $170 per 
product.
    According to the manufacturer, some of the costs of this proposed 
AD may be covered under warranty, thereby reducing the cost impact on 
affected individuals. We do not control warranty coverage for affected 
individuals. As a result, we have included all costs in our cost 
estimate.

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 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.

List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 39
