Related Service Information Under 1
CFR Part 51
EASA AD 20210078 specifies procedures for installation of rescue hoist kit removable parts temporary actions and replacement of affected parts with serviceable parts in accordance with the manufacturers service information. EASA AD 2021
0078 prohibits installing any affected part after modification as required by the EASA AD. EASA AD 20210078
considers the modification a terminating action for the temporary actions required by the EASA AD.

Explanation of Required Compliance Information In the FAAs ongoing efforts to improve the efficiency of the AD
process, the FAA initially worked with Airbus and EASA to develop a process to use certain EASA ADs as the primary source of information for compliance with requirements for corresponding FAA ADs. The FAA has since coordinated with other manufacturers and civil aviation authorities to use this process. As a result, EASA AD 2021
0078 is incorporated by reference in this AD. This AD, therefore, requires compliance with EASA AD 20210078
in its entirety, through that incorporation, except for any differences identified as exceptions in the regulatory text of this AD. Using common terms that are the same as the heading of a particular section in the EASA AD does not mean that operators need comply only with that section. For example, where the AD requirement refers to all required actions and compliance times, compliance with this AD requirement is not limited to the section titled Required Actions and Compliance Times in the EASA
AD. Service information specified in EASA AD 20210078 that is required for compliance with EASA AD 20210078
is available on the internet at https
www.regulations.gov by searching for and locating Docket No. FAA2021
1060.
Differences Between This AD and EASA
AD 20210078
Service information referenced in EASA AD 20210078 specifies sending compliance forms to the manufacturer;
this AD does not. Paragraph 2 of EASA
AD 20210078 specifies a compliance time of 400 flight hours or 12 months, whichever occurs first. However, this AD requires a compliance time of 400
hours time-in-service after the effective date of this AD. This AD does not require compliance with paragraph 1
or paragraph 4 of EASA AD 2021
0078. EASA AD 20210078 paragraph 4 considers modification of the helicopter a terminating action for installing the rescue hoist kit removable parts on the helicopter. As this AD does not require installing the rescue hoist kit removable parts, this AD does not provide a terminating action for installing the rescue hoist removable parts.
Justification for Immediate Adoption and Determination of the Effective Date Section 553b3B of the Administrative Procedure Act APA 5
U.S.C. 551 et seq. authorizes agencies

to dispense with notice and comment procedures for rules when the agency, for good cause finds that those procedures are impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary to the public interest. Under this section, an agency, upon finding good cause, may issue a final rule without providing notice and seeking comment prior to issuance.
Further, section 553d of the APA
authorizes agencies to make rules effective in less than thirty days, upon a finding of good cause.
There are currently no domestic operators of these products affected by the unsafe condition addressed by this AD. Accordingly, notice and opportunity for prior public comment are unnecessary, pursuant to 5 U.S.C.
553b3B. In addition, for the foregoing reasons, the FAA finds that good cause exists pursuant to 5 U.S.C.
553d for making this amendment effective in less than 30 days.
Comments Invited The FAA invites you to send any written relevant data, views, or arguments about this AD. Send your comments to an address listed under ADDRESSES. Include Docket No. FAA
FAA20211060; Project Identifier MCAI202100340R at the beginning of your comments. The most helpful comments reference a specific portion of the AD, explain the reason for any recommended change, and include supporting data. The FAA will consider all comments received by the closing date and may amend this AD because of those comments.
Except for Confidential Business Information CBI as described in the following paragraph, and other information as described in 14 CFR
11.35, the FAA will post all comments received, without change, to https
www.regulations.gov, including any personal information you provide. The agency will also post a report summarizing each substantive verbal contact received about this AD.
Confidential Business Information CBI is commercial or financial information that is both customarily and actually treated as private by its owner.
Under the Freedom of Information Act FOIA 5 U.S.C. 552, CBI is exempt from public disclosure. If your comments responsive to this AD contain commercial or financial information that is customarily treated as private, that you actually treat as private, and that is relevant or responsive to this AD, it is important that you clearly designate the submitted comments as CBI. Please mark each page of your submission containing CBI as PROPIN. The FAA
