April 16, 2007 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

This notice proposes special conditions for the Boeing Model 787-8 airplane. This airplane will have novel or unusual design features when compared to the state of technology envisioned in the airworthiness standards for transport category airplanes. The architecture of the Boeing Model 787-8 systems and networks allows access to external systems and networks, including the public Internet. On-board wired and wireless devices may also have access to parts of the airplane's digital systems that provide flight critical functions. These new connectivity capabilities may result in security vulnerabilities to the airplane's critical systems. For these design features, the applicable airworthiness regulations do not contain adequate or appropriate safety standards for protection and security of airplane systems and data networks against unauthorized access. These proposed special conditions contain the additional safety standards that the Administrator considers necessary to establish a level of safety equivalent to that established by the existing airworthiness standards. Additional special conditions will be issued for other novel or unusual design features of the Boeing Model 787-8 airplanes.

The FAA hereby provides notice of intent to release certain airport properties 7.742 acres at the Kendall Tamiami Executive Airport, Miami, FL from the conditions, reservations, and restrictions as contained in a FAAP agreement between the FAA and the County of Miami-Dade, dated June 4, 1965. The release of property will allow the County of Miami-Dade to dispose of the property for other than aeronautical purposes. The property is located in the South 35ft. of Section 16, Township 55 South, Range 39 East, Miami-Dade County, Florida; less the West 185ft. thereof and the South 35ft. of the West \1/4\ of Section 15, Township 55 South, Range 39 East, Miami-Dade County, Florida.

The airport will receive fair market value for the property, which will be subsequently reinvested in another eligible airport improvement project or used for operation and maintenance of the Kendall Tamiami Executive Airport.
