SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background Transport Canada Civil Aviation TCCA, which is the aviation authority for Canada, has issued TCCA AD CF
202046, dated November 17, 2020
TCCA AD CF202046 also referred to after this as the Mandatory Continuing Airworthiness Information, or the MCAI, to correct an unsafe condition for certain Bombardier, Inc., Model BD1001A10 airplanes. You may examine the MCAI in the AD
docket at https www.regulations.gov by searching for and locating Docket No.
FAA20210691.
The FAA issued a notice of proposed rulemaking NPRM to amend 14 CFR
part 39 by adding an AD that would apply to certain Bombardier, Inc., Model BD1001A10 airplanes. The NPRM
published in the Federal Register on August 23, 2021 86 FR 47036. The NPRM was prompted by reports of erratic electrical system status on the PBAs and the EICAS. The NPRM
proposed to require revising the existing AFM to incorporate procedures to be
applied during erroneous electrical status indication conditions. The FAA is issuing this AD to address erroneous indications that could mislead pilots, causing them to turn off active electrical power sources, leading to partial or complete loss of electrical power. Loss of electrical power could result in the loss of flight displays and reduced controllability of the airplane. See the MCAI for additional background information.
Comments The FAA gave the public the opportunity to participate in developing this final rule. The FAA received no comments on the NPRM or on the determination of the cost to the public.
Conclusion The FAA reviewed the relevant data and determined that air safety and the public interest require adopting this final rule as proposed, except for minor editorial changes. The FAA has determined that these minor changes:
Are consistent with the intent that was proposed in the NPRM for addressing the unsafe condition; and Do not add any additional burden upon the public than was already proposed in the NPRM.
