RULES

Critical Parts for Airplane Propellers; Correction [FR DOC# 2013-17931]
SUMMARY: The FAA is correcting a final rule published on January 18, 2013
(78 FR 4038). In that rule, the FAA established airworthiness standards for
airplane propellers. That action required a safety analysis to identify a
propeller critical part. Manufacturers would identify propeller critical
parts, and establish engineering, manufacturing, and maintenance processes
for propeller critical parts. An unintentional error was introduced in Sec.
35.15 when we revised paragraph (d). We did not intend to revise paragraph
(d). This correction will add paragraph (d) to the end of paragraph (c), and
restore the former paragraph (d).

Pilot Certification and Qualification Requirements for Air Carrier
Operations [FR DOC# C1-2013-16849]

Airworthiness Directives; Hartzell Propeller, Inc. Propellers [FR DOC# 2013
-17664] SUMMARY: We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for
certain Hartzell Propeller, Inc. propeller models HC-(1,D)2(X,V,MV)20-7, HC-
(1,D)2(X,V,MV)20-8, and HC-(1,D)3(X,V,MV)20-8. This AD was prompted by
failures of the propeller hydraulic bladder diaphragm and resulting engine
oil leak. This AD requires replacement of the propeller hydraulic bladder
diaphragm. We are issuing this AD to prevent propeller hydraulic bladder
diaphragm rupture, loss of engine oil, damage to the engine, and loss of the
airplane.

Airworthiness Directives; the Boeing Company Airplanes [FR DOC# 2013-18110]
SUMMARY: We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain The
Boeing Company Model 787-8 airplanes. This AD requires either removal or
inspection of the Honeywell fixed emergency locator transmitter (ELT), and
corrective action if necessary. This AD was prompted by a report of a fire
involving a Honeywell fixed ELT. We are issuing this AD to prevent a fire in
the aft crown of the airplane, or to detect and correct discrepancies within
the ELT that could cause such a fire.
