Airworthiness Directives; Lockheed Model 382, 382B, 382E, 382F, and 382G Series Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration, DOT.

ACTION: Final rule; correction.

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

SUMMARY: This document corrects information that appeared in airworthiness directive (AD) 96-12-20, amendment 39-9663, that was published in the Federal Register on June 10, 1996 (61 FR 29279). This AD is applicable to certain Lockheed Model 382, 382B, 382E, 382F, and 382G series airplanes. Among other things, it requires visual inspections to detect loose, missing, or deformed fasteners in the upper truss mounts of certain engines. This action corrects a reference to the outboard and inboard engines, which should have referred to the outboard and inboard truss mounts.

DATES: Effective July 15, 1996. The incorporation by reference of certain publications listed in the regulations was previously approved by the Director of the Federal Register as of July 15, 1996 (61 FR 29279, June 10, 1996).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On June 3, 1996, the FAA issued AD 96-12-20, amendment 39-9663; (61 FR 29279, June 10, 1996), to require visual inspections to detect loose, missing, or deformed fasteners in the upper truss mounts of certain engines, inspections to detect cracking in the associated tangs, and replacement of cracked parts. That AD also requires repetitive ultrasonic inspections of the upper tang and replacement of cracked parts. Additionally, that AD provides an optional terminating action for the repetitive inspections. As published, paragraph (d)(2) of that AD refers to ``truss mounts in the No. 1 outboard engine'' and refers to ``truss mounts of the No. 4 inboard engine.'' However, the correct references should have been to ``outboard truss mounts of the No. 1 engine'' and ``inboard truss mounts of the No. 4 engine.'' In all other respects, as well as in other references to these items in the AD, the originally-issued AD is correct. Since no other part of the regulatory information has been changed, the final rule is not being republished. The effective date of the AD remains July 15, 1996. Accordingly, the final rule document (FR Doc. 96-14383), which was published on June 10, 1996, at 61 FR 29279, is corrected as follows:

Sec. 39.13 [Corrected]

On page 29282, in the first column, the text of paragraph (d)(2) of AD 96-12-20, amendment 39-9663, is corrected to read as follows: * * * * * (d) * * * (1) * * * (2) Replace the truss mount assembly with part number 360013-31 or subsequent (for the outboard truss mounts of the No. 1 engine), or part number 360017-31 or subsequent (for the inboard truss mounts of the No. 4 engine), as applicable, in accordance with SMP 583. Such replacement constitutes terminating action for the requirements of this AD. * * * * * Issued in Renton, Washington, on August 9, 1996. Darrell M. Pederson, Acting Manager, Transport Airplane Directorate, Aircraft Certification Service. [FR Doc. 96-20872 Filed 8-15-96; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 4910-13-U
