The Consensus Standards The FAA has reviewed the standards presented in this NOA for compliance with the regulatory requirements of the rule. Any light-sport aircraft issued a special light-sport airworthiness certificate, which has been designed, manufactured, operated and maintained, in accordance with this and previously accepted ASTM consensus standards provides the public with the appropriate level of safety established under the regulations. Manufacturers who choose to produce these aircraft and certificate these aircraft under 14 CFR part 21, §§ 21.190 or 21.191 are subject to the applicable consensus standard requirements. The FAA maintains a listing of all accepted standards on the FAA Web site. The Revised Consensus Standards and Effective Period of Use rwilkins on PROD1PC63 with NOTICES 179 The following previously accepted consensus standards have been revised, and this NOA is accepting the later revisions. Either the previous revisions or the later revisions may be used for the initial certification of special lightsport aircraft until July 1, 2007. This overlapping period of time will allow aircraft that have started the initial certification process using the previous revision levels to complete that process. After July 1, 2007, manufacturers must use the later revisions and must identify these later revisions in the Statement of Compliance for initial certification of special light-sport aircraft unless the FAA publishes a specific notification otherwise. The following Consensus Standards may not be used after July 1, 2007: a. ASTM Designation F 2245–04, titled: Standard Specification for Design and Performance of a Light Sport Airplane. b.
