SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Comments Invited
We invite interested parties to submit
comments on the proposed
airworthiness standards to the address
specified above. The FAA will consider
all communications received on or
before the closing date. These are
preliminary proposed airworthiness
standards as certification evaluation is
ongoing. As such, we also plan to issue
a subsequent Notice, addressing the
final proposed standards and any
comments received in response to this
advance Notice prior to issuing the final
acceptance. Commenting on this
advance Notice does not preclude
commenting on the subsequent Notice.
Background
The ‘‘special class’’ category for
aircraft was created specifically for nonconventional aircraft for which
airworthiness standards have not been
issued and provides a means for
applicants to propose airworthiness
standards for their particular special
class aircraft. The FAA procedure
establishing appropriate airworthiness
standards includes reviewing and
PO 00000
Frm 00080
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
possibly revising the application
proposal, publication of the submittal in
the Federal Register for public review
and comment, and addressing the
comments. After all necessary revisions,
the standards are published as approved
FAA airworthiness standards.
Accordingly, the applicant for the
BA609 Tiltrotor has submitted a request
to the FAA to include the applicable
requirements of those airworthiness
requirements contained in Title 14 of
the Code of Federal Regulations, parts
23, 25, and 29 found by the
Administrator to be appropriate for the
BA609 Tiltrotor or such airworthiness
criteria as the Administrator may find
appropriate for this special class aircraft
that provides an acceptable level of
safety equivalent to the level of safety
provided in the existing airworthiness
standards. We have considered the
applicant’s proposal and have
determined that those 14 CFR parts 23,
25, and 29 requirements and certain
additional airworthiness standards
should apply.

proposed airworthiness standards from
