Discussion
Federal Aviation Administration
This proposed AC provides
information and guidance on
compliance with the airworthiness
standards for transport category
airplanes about limiting the time a fuel
tank may be flammable or mitigation of
hazards from flammable fuel air
mixtures within fuel tanks. This
guidance is applicable to transport
category airplanes for which a new,
amended, or supplemental type
certificate is requested and affected
existing design approval holders as
stated in proposed §§ 25.1815, 25.1817,
25.1819, and 25.1821 contained in a
proposed new subpart I to Title 14,
Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR)
part 25, ‘‘Continued Airworthiness and
Safety Improvements.’’ The AC also
provides guidance on compliance with
the associated proposed requirements
for operators of affected airplanes that
must comply with the requirements of
14 CFR parts 91, 121, 125, and 129 (for
a foreign person or foreign air carrier
operating a U.S.-registered airplane) to
incorporate flammability mitigation
means by specified dates.
The Notice of Proposed Rulemaking
would not apply the proposed new
requirements to transport category
airplanes designed solely for cargo
carriage. However, AC 25.981–2 remains
applicable to these airplanes, which
must comply with the current
flammability standards contained in
Proposed Advisory Circular 25.981–2A,
Fuel Tank Flammability
Federal Aviation
Administration, DOT.
ACTION: Notice of Availability of
Proposed Advisory Circular (AC)
25.981–2A, and request for comments.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: This notice announces the
availability of and requests comments
on a proposed advisory circular (AC)
which sets forth an acceptable means,
but not the only means, of
demonstrating compliance with the
provisions of the airworthiness
standards for transport category
airplanes related to Fuel Tank
Flammability Reduction. This proposed
AC complements revisions to the
airworthiness standards that are being
proposed by a separate notice. This
notice is necessary to give all interested
persons an opportunity to present their
views on the proposed AC.
DATES: Comments must be received on
or before March 23, 2006.
ADDRESSES: Send all comments on
proposed AC to: Federal Aviation
