135.25(a)(2). Specifically, the two aircraft flew for almost 1,400 hours with
15
improperly modified and repaired fuel pumps. In affirming the law judge’s finding
of unairworthy operation due to the fuel pumps being in an unsafe operating
condition, the Administrator stated:
The Romec manual for the fuel pumps provides: ‘Avoid
application of excessive torque when tightening valve cover
mounting screws. Tighten screws progressively to 29-31 lb.-
in. torque.’ (emphasis in original). Rimer did not have a copy of the
Romec manual when he modified the two fuel pumps. He did not
know the proper torque values and did not use a torque wrench. It
is undisputed that if the screws are not tightened properly the fuel
pumps may leak, resulting in a fire hazard.
In the matter of USAir, FAA Order No. 92-48, Docket No. CP91NM0183 (July 22,
1992) (IOP 18), the FAA found that USAir operated an unairworthy aircraft
contrary to §121.153(a)(2). The aircraft had sustained damage to its nose gear
water deflector during pushback from the gate. Because the aircraft no longer
conformed to its type certificate, the Administrator affirmed the law judge’s finding
that the aircraft had been operated in an unairworthy manner.
Persons who design, produce, operate and maintain civil aircraft are responsible
for ensuring airworthiness. Parker Hannifin’s denial of Sonico’s request for ICA
is contrary to the regulatory obligations on which safety is based.
IV. CONCLUSION
For the reasons set forth above, Complainant requests that the FAA initiate an
informal investigation and thereafter issue an order finding that Parker Hannifin is
in violation of §§ 21.50(b), 25.1529 and part 25, appendix H. The Complainant
has provided the Administrator with the necessary IOPs establishing these
violations.
If the FAA requires additional information to establish the violation, Complainant
urges the Administrator to issue an order of investigation in accordance with part
13, subpart F. A formal investigation would allow the Administrator to name a
Presiding Officer, issue subpoenas, take depositions, hold an evidentiary public
hearing and issue a written report of the investigation.
Complainant urges the FAA to consider this Complaint in the broadest possible
terms. In the Association’s view, it would make little sense for the Administrator
to issue a ruling favorable to Sonico without recognizing that the same issues
apply throughout the aviation maintenance industry. Ultimately, Complainant
requests that the Administrator enforce the ICA requirements against design
approval holders as diligently as it enforces them against maintenance providers
and operators.
