{"abstract":"We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Saab AB, Saab Aeronautics Model SAAB 2000 airplanes. This AD was prompted by an occurrence that was reported of rudder pedal restriction on a SAAB Model 2000 airplane with the large potable water system (LPWS) installed, equipped with in-line heaters. This AD requires installation of shrinkable tubes on the water piping of the basic potable water system (BPWS). We are issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.","action":"Final rule.","agencies":[{"raw_name":"DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION","name":"Transportation Department","id":492,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/transportation-department","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/492","parent_id":null,"slug":"transportation-department"},{"raw_name":"Federal Aviation Administration","name":"Federal Aviation Administration","id":159,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/federal-aviation-administration","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/159","parent_id":492,"slug":"federal-aviation-administration"}],"body_html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/html/2016/12/21/2016-29509.html","cfr_references":[{"chapter":null,"citation_url":null,"part":39,"title":14}],"citation":"81 FR 93583","comment_url":null,"comments_close_on":null,"correction_of":null,"corrections":[],"dates":"This AD is effective January 25, 2017.","disposition_notes":null,"docket_ids":["Docket No. FAA-2016-9056","Directorate Identifier 2016-NM-007-AD","Amendment 39-18743","AD 2016-25-17"],"dockets":[{"supporting_documents":[{"title":"U.S. DOT/FAA - Regulatory Evaluation","document_id":"FAA-2016-9056-0005"},{"title":"SAAB SB 2000-38-012","document_id":"FAA-2016-9056-0004"},{"title":"U.S. DOT/FAA - Supplemental AD Documents","document_id":"FAA-2016-9056-0002"}],"agency_name":"FAA","documents":[{"comment_count":0,"comment_start_date":"2016-12-21","updated_at":"2023-03-01T13:26:54.026-05:00","comment_url":"https://www.regulations.gov/commenton/FAA-2016-9056-0003","allow_late_comments":null,"id":"FAA-2016-9056-0003","comment_end_date":null,"regulations_dot_gov_open_for_comment":false}],"supporting_documents_count":3,"id":"FAA-2016-9056","title":"2016-NM-007-AD\nSaab AB, Saab Aeronautics Model SAAB 2000 airplanes"}],"document_number":"2016-29509","effective_on":"2017-01-25","end_page":93585,"executive_order_notes":null,"executive_order_number":null,"explanation":null,"full_text_xml_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/xml/2016/12/21/2016-29509.xml","html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2016/12/21/2016-29509/airworthiness-directives-saab-ab-saab-aeronautics-formerly-known-as-saab-ab-saab-aerosystems","images":{},"images_metadata":{},"json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/documents/2016-29509?publication_date=2016-12-21","mods_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/metadata/granule/FR-2016-12-21/2016-29509/mods.xml","not_received_for_publication":null,"page_length":3,"page_views":{"count":37,"last_updated":"2026-04-24 06:15:04 -0400"},"pdf_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2016-12-21/pdf/2016-29509.pdf","presidential_document_number":null,"proclamation_number":null,"public_inspection_pdf_url":"https://public-inspection.federalregister.gov/2016-29509.pdf?1482241523","publication_date":"2016-12-21","raw_text_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/text/2016/12/21/2016-29509.txt","regulation_id_number_info":{"2120-AA64":{"issue":"202410","html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/regulations/2120-AA64/airworthiness-directives","title":"Airworthiness Directives","xml_url":"http://www.reginfo.gov/public/do/eAgendaViewRule?pubId=202410&RIN=2120-AA64&operation=OPERATION_EXPORT_XML","priority_category":"Routine and Frequent"}},"regulation_id_numbers":["2120-AA64"],"regulations_dot_gov_info":{"supporting_documents":[{"title":"U.S. DOT/FAA - Regulatory Evaluation","document_id":"FAA-2016-9056-0005"},{"title":"SAAB SB 2000-38-012","document_id":"FAA-2016-9056-0004"},{"title":"U.S. DOT/FAA - Supplemental AD Documents","document_id":"FAA-2016-9056-0002"}],"regulatory_plan":{"html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/regulations/2120-AA64/airworthiness-directives","title":"Airworthiness Directives"},"comments_count":0,"agency_id":"FAA","comments_url":"https://www.regulations.gov/docketBrowser?rpp=50&so=DESC&sb=postedDate&po=0&dct=PS&D=FAA-2016-9056","supporting_documents_count":3,"docket_id":"FAA-2016-9056","document_id":"FAA-2016-9056-0003","regulation_id_number":"2120-AA64","title":"2016-NM-007-AD\nSaab AB, Saab Aeronautics Model SAAB 2000 airplanes","checked_regulationsdotgov_at":"2023-03-01T18:26:53Z"},"regulations_dot_gov_url":null,"significant":false,"signing_date":null,"start_page":93583,"subtype":null,"title":"Airworthiness Directives; Saab AB, Saab Aeronautics (Formerly Known as Saab AB, Saab Aerosystems) Airplanes","toc_doc":"Saab AB, Saab Aeronautics (Formerly known as Saab AB, Saab Aerosystems) Airplanes","toc_subject":"Airworthiness Directives:","topics":["Air transportation","Aircraft","Aviation safety","Incorporation by reference","Safety"],"type":"Rule","volume":81}
