Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 94 / Tuesday, May 18, 2021 / Rules and Regulations 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
will treat such marked submissions as confidential under the FOIA, and they will not be placed in the public docket of this AD. Submissions containing CBI
should be sent to Hal Jensen, Aerospace Engineer, Operational Safety Branch, Compliance & Airworthiness Division, FAA, 950 LEnfant Plaza N SW, Washington, DC 20024; telephone 202
2679167; email hal.jensen@faa.gov.
Any commentary that the FAA receives which is not specifically designated as CBI will be placed in the public docket for this rulemaking.
Regulatory Flexibility Act The requirements of the Regulatory Flexibility Act RFA do not apply when an agency finds good cause pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 553 to adopt a rule without prior notice and comment. Because the FAA has determined that it has good cause to adopt this rule without prior notice and comment, RFA analysis is not required.
Costs of Compliance There are no costs of compliance with this AD because there are currently no helicopters with this type certificate affected by this AD on the U.S. Registry.

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 This AD will not have federalism implications under Executive Order 13132. This AD will 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, I certify that this AD:
1 Is not a significant regulatory action under Executive Order 12866, and 2 Will not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska.

6F2210AS0102 or previous versions installed.
d Subject Joint Aircraft Service Component JASC
Code: 2200, Auto Flight System.
e Unsafe Condition This AD was prompted by false simultaneous in-flight disengagement of AFCS channels 1 and 2. The FAA is issuing this AD to address concurrent disengagement of those AFCS channels resulting from the activation of specific AFCS modes combined with the unavailability of hybrid ground speed data at take-off. The unsafe condition, if not addressed, could result in temporary loss of control of the helicopter and subsequent damage to the helicopter or injury to occupants.
f Compliance Comply with this AD within the compliance times specified, unless already done.
g Required Actions 1 Within 15 hours time-in-service TIS
after the effective date of this AD, revise the Limitations Section of the existing Rotorcraft Flight Manual RFM for your helicopter by adding the information in Figure 1 to paragraph g1 of this AD. Inserting a different document with information identical to the information in Figure 1 to paragraph g1 of this AD is acceptable for compliance with the requirements of this paragraph. This action may be performed by the owner/operator pilot holding at least a private pilot certificate and must be entered into the aircraft records showing compliance with this AD in accordance with 43.9a1
through 4 and 91.417a2v. The record must be maintained as required by 91.417, 121.380, or 135.439.
