ACTION: Final rule. SUMMARY: The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for all The Boeing Company Model 757 airplanes and Model 767-200, -300, and -300F series airplanes. This AD was prompted by reports of excessively high flight deck or cabin temperatures. This AD requires revising certificate limitations and operating procedures of the existing airplane flight manual (AFM), to provide the flightcrew with procedures for hot flight deck or cabin temperatures to follow under certain conditions. The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products. DATES: This AD is effective May 8, 2020. ADDRESSES: Examining the AD Docket You may examine the AD docket on the internet at https://www.regulations.gov by searching for and locating Docket No. FAA-2019-0605; or in person at Docket Operations between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m., Monday through Friday, except Federal holidays.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Discussion The FAA issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR part 39 by adding an AD that would apply to all The Boeing Company Model 757 airplanes and Model 767-200, -300, and -300F series airplanes. The NPRM published in the Federal Register on August 20, 2019 (84 FR 43080). The NPRM was prompted by reports of excessively high flight deck or cabin temperatures. The NPRM proposed to require revising certificate limitations and operating procedures of the existing AFM to provide the flightcrew with procedures for hot flight deck or cabin temperatures to follow under certain conditions. The FAA is issuing this AD to address excessively high flight deck or cabin temperatures, which may inhibit safe operation of the airplane by the flightcrew and contribute to loss of continued safe flight and landing, or may cause physiological distress to passengers and cabin crew. Comments The FAA gave the public the opportunity to participate in developing this final rule. The following presents the comments received on the NPRM and the FAA's response to each comment. Support for the NPRM The Air Line Pilots Association, International (ALPA), expressed support for the NPRM. Effect of Winglets on Accomplishment of the Proposed Actions Aviation Partners Boeing stated that the installation of winglets per Supplemental Type Certificate (STC) ST01518SE or STC ST01920SE does not affect the accomplishment of the manufacturer's service instructions. The FAA agrees with the com…
