Rulemaking Advisory Committee;
Transport Airplane Performance and
Handling Characteristics—New Task
Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA), DOT.
ACTION: Notice of new task assignment
for the Aviation Rulemaking Advisory
Committee (ARAC).
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: The FAA assigned ARAC a
new task to prioritize potential topic
areas for development of new or revised
requirements and guidance material for
airplane performance and handling
characteristics in new transport category
airplanes. The output of this task is
intended to support FAA planning for
subsequent ARAC taskings in these
topic areas. This notice is to inform the
public of this ARAC activity.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
The FAA established ARAC to
provide advice and recommendations to
the FAA Administrator on the FAA’s
rulemaking activities with respect to
aviation-related issues. This includes
obtaining advice and recommendations
on the FAA’s commitments to
harmonize FAA regulations with its
partners in Europe, Canada, and Brazil;
in this instance, on airplane
performance and handling
characteristics standards. ARAC will
address this task under the Transport
Airplane and Engine (TAE)
Subcommittee, and will reestablish the
Flight Test Harmonization Working
Group (FTHWG) to assist in completion
of this task.
The FAA has established regulations
and policy in the areas of airplane
performance and handling
characteristics. However, existing
standards do not adequately address
airplane designs using fly-by-wire
technology. Additionally, there are a
number of issues, such as several items
in the areas of takeoff and landing
performance and flying qualities that
may not be adequately addressed by the
existing airworthiness requirements and
guidance material. Finally, there are
cases where guidance information
provided by the airworthiness
authorities is not harmonized,
sometimes leading to different
compliance findings.
The Task
The FAA tasked ARAC to consider
several areas within the airplane
performance and handling qualities
requirements of the 14 CFR part 25
airworthiness standards and guidance
for possible revision. The task includes
prioritizing the list of topic areas
provided in this notice based on
prioritization criteria established by the
FTHWG. The prioritization criteria
should consider harmonization of
regulatory requirements and associated
guidance material for airworthiness
certification of airplane designs.
Recommendations may result in
subsequent ARAC taskings for standards
recommendations in follow-on phases.
ARAC may also recommend additional
topics in the general area of airplane
performance and handling qualities that
are not on the list provided in this
notice
The working group will provide a
draft report to ARAC recommending
focus areas and work plans to address
those areas the FTHWG identified as
high priorities for airworthiness
standards development relative to new
