SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background: Under the provisions of
the National Technology Transfer and
Advancement Act of 1995 1 and Office
of Management and Budget (OMB)
Circular A–119, ‘‘Federal Participation
in the Development and Use of
Voluntary Consensus Standards and in
Conformity Assessment Activities,’’
effective January 27, 2016, the FAA
participates in the development of
consensus standards and uses
consensus standards as a means of
carrying out its policy objectives where
appropriate.
Consistent with the Small Airplane
Revitalization Act of 2013,2 the FAA has
been working with industry and other
stakeholders lop consensus standards
for use as a means of compliance in
certificating small airplanes under Title
14, Code of Federal Regulations (14
CFR) part 23. In promulgating part 23,
amendment 23–64 3 (81 FR 96572,
December 30, 2016), the FAA explained
that if it determined such consensus
standards were acceptable means of
compliance to part 23, it would publish
a notice of availability of those
consensus standards in the Federal
Register.
Pursuant to FAA Advisory Circular
23.2010–1,4 ‘‘FAA Accepted Means of
Compliance Process for 14 CFR part
23,’’ section 3.1.1, this notice serves as
a formal acceptance by the
Administrator of means of compliance
based on consensus standards
developed by ASTM. The means of
compliance accepted by this notice are
one means, but not the only means of
complying with part 23 regulatory
requirements.
The FAA reviewed 35 published
ASTM consensus standards, developed
by ASTM Committee F44, as the basis
for means of compliance to 65 sections
1 Ref Public Law 104–113 as amended by Public
Law 107–107.
2 Ref Public Law 113–53.

Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 184 / Tuesday, September 22, 2020 / Rules and Regulations
of part 23, amendment 23–64. In some
cases, the Administrator finds sections
of ASTM Standard F3264–19, ‘‘Standard
Specification for Normal Category
Aeroplanes Certification,’’ without
changes, are accepted as means of
complying with the airworthiness
requirements of amendment 23–64,
within the scope and applicability of the
consensus standards. In other cases, the
means of compliance, while based on
ASTM consensus standards, include
additional FAA provisions necessary to
comply with the airworthiness
requirements of amendment 23–64.
This document accepts only the
revisions of standards referenced in
ASTM Standard F3264–19, ‘‘Standard
Specification for Normal Category
Aeroplanes Certification.’’ Applicants
who desire to use means of compliance
reflected by other revisions to ASTM
standards not previously accepted may
seek guidance and possible acceptance
from FAA for the use of those means of
compliance on a case-by-case basis.
Applicants may also propose alternative
means of compliance for FAA review
and possible acceptance.
Amendment 23–64 established
airworthiness requirements based on the
level of safety of amendment 23–63
regulations, except for areas addressing
loss of control and icing where the
safety level was increased. Achieving
this level of safety through compliance
with amendment 23–64—for a given
certification project—may require use of
additional means of compliance beyond
those accepted by this notice,
depending on the details of the specific
design. For example, applicants with
novel designs, such as unmanned
airplanes or vertical takeoff and landing
airplanes that are outside the scope and
applicability of these consensus
standards must propose alternative
means of compliance, applicable to their
designs, to be accepted under § 23.2010.
Further information on supplemental
means of compliance is provided in a
part 23 means of compliance summary
table and in the Small Airplanes Issues
List, which are available on the Small
Airplanes—Regulations, Policies &
Guidance website.5
Means of Compliance Accepted in
this Policy: The following is a list of part
23, amendment 23–64, sections
59401
followed by their corresponding means
of compliance accepted by this notice.
However, for means of compliance
identified in the following list, Aircraft
Type Code compliance matrix tables,
which define applicability of the
individual requirements of given
standards, are not accepted in any
ASTM F44 standard. Due to errors
identified in the Aircraft Type Code
compliance matrix tables, applicability
of individual requirements of standards
must be established with the Small
Airplane Standards Branch.

‘‘Unless otherwise required, it shall be possible to carry out the following maneuvers without requiring the application of temporary one-hand control forces exceeding those specified in Table 1, appropriate for the type of control. The trimming controls shall not be adjusted during the maneuvers.’’
FAA Section 4.3.2.3
‘‘With landing gear and flaps extended, power necessary to maintain level flight at 1.1 VS0, and the airplane as
nearly as possible in trim, it shall be possible to maintain approximately level flight while retracting the flaps as
rapidly as possible with simultaneous application of maximum continuous power. If the level acceleration will
result in exceeding VFE of the initial flap configuration prior to the flaps reaching their selected setting, power
may be reduced after achieving 1.3 VFE of the initial flap configuration. The maneuver continues until the flaps
reach the selected setting and the airplane achieves VFE of the initial flap configuration. If gated flap positions
are provided, the flap retraction may be demonstrated in stages with power and trim reset for level flight at 1.1
VS1, in the initial configuration for each stage:
(1) From the fully extended position to the most extended gated position;
(2) Between intermediate gated positions, if applicable; and
(3) From the least extended gated position to the fully retracted position.’’
FAA Section 4.7
‘‘It shall be possible, while in the landing configuration, to complete a landing without causing substantial damage
or serious injury, and without exceeding the temporary one-hand control force limits specified in Table 1, appropriate for the type of control, following an approach to land under the following conditions;’’

Editorial, reapproval, revision or
withdrawal: The FAA expects a suitable
consensus standard to be reviewed
periodically. ASTM policy is that a
consensus standard should be reviewed
in its entirety by the responsible
subcommittee and must be balloted for
reapproval, revision, or withdrawal,
within five years of its last approval
date. ASTM reapproves a standard—
denoted by the year of reapproval in
parentheses (e.g., F2427–05a(2013))—to
indicate completion of a review cycle
with no technical changes made to the
standard. ASTM issues editorial
changes—denoted by a superscript
epsilon in the standard designation (e.g.,
F3235–17e1)—to correct information
that does not change the meaning or
intent of a standard. Any means of
compliance accepted by this notice that
is based on a standard later reapproved
or editorially changed is also considered
accepted without the need for a NOA.
ASTM revises a standard to make
changes to its technical content.
Revisions to consensus standards
serving as the basis for means of
compliance accepted by this notice will
not be automatically accepted and will
require further FAA acceptance in order
VerDate Sep<11>2014

ACTION: Notification of availability.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This document announces the availability of means of
compliance to the applicable airworthiness standards for normal
category airplanes. The Administrator finds these means of compliance
to be an acceptable means, but not the only means, of showing
compliance to the applicable airworthiness standards for normal
category airplanes and that they provide an appropriate level of
safety.
DATES: Effective September 22, 2020.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background: Under the provisions of the
National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995 \1\ and Office
of Management and Budget (OMB) Circular A-119, ``Federal Participation
in the Development and Use of Voluntary Consensus Standards and in
Conformity Assessment Activities,'' effective January 27, 2016, the FAA
participates in the development of consensus standards and uses
consensus standards as a means of carrying out its policy objectives
where appropriate.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ Ref Public Law 104-113 as amended by Public Law 107-107.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Consistent with the Small Airplane Revitalization Act of 2013,\2\
the FAA has been working with industry and other stakeholders lop
consensus standards for use as a means of compliance in certificating
small airplanes under Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR)
part 23. In promulgating part 23, amendment 23-64 \3\ (81 FR 96572,
December 30, 2016), the FAA explained that if it determined such
consensus standards were acceptable means of compliance to part 23, it
would publish a notice of availability of those consensus standards in
the Federal Register.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\2\ Ref Public Law 113-53.
\3\ See https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2016/12/30/2016-30246/revision-of-airworthiness-standards-for-normal-utility-acrobatic-and-commuter-category-airplanes.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pursuant to FAA Advisory Circular 23.2010-1,\4\ ``FAA Accepted
Means of Compliance Process for 14 CFR part 23,'' section 3.1.1, this
notice serves as a formal acceptance by the Administrator of means of
compliance based on consensus standards developed by ASTM. The means of
compliance accepted by this notice are one means, but not the only
means of complying with part 23 regulatory requirements.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\4\ See https://rgl.faa.gov/.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The FAA reviewed 35 published ASTM consensus standards, developed
by ASTM Committee F44, as the basis for means of compliance to 65
sections
[[Page 59401]]
of part 23, amendment 23-64. In some cases, the Administrator finds
sections of ASTM Standard F3264-19, ``Standard Specification for Normal
Category Aeroplanes Certification,'' without changes, are accepted as
means of complying with the airworthiness requirements of amendment 23-
64, within the scope and applicability of the consensus standards. In
other cases, the means of compliance, while based on ASTM consensus
standards, include additional FAA provisions necessary to comply with
the airworthiness requirements of amendment 23-64.
This document accepts only the revisions of standards referenced in
ASTM Standard F3264-19, ``Standard Specification for Normal Category
Aeroplanes Certification.'' Applicants who desire to use means of
compliance reflected by other revisions to ASTM standards not
previously accepted may seek guidance and possible acceptance from FAA
for the use of those means of compliance on a case-by-case basis.
Applicants may also propose alternative means of compliance for FAA
review and possible acceptance.
Amendment 23-64 established airworthiness requirements based on the
level of safety of amendment 23-63 regulations, except for areas
addressing loss of control and icing where the safety level was
increased. Achieving this level of safety through compliance with
amendment 23-64--for a given certification project--may require use of
additional means of compliance beyond those accepted by this notice,
depending on the details of the specific design. For example,
applicants with novel designs, such as unmanned airplanes or vertical
takeoff and landing airplanes that are outside the scope and
applicability of these consensus standards must propose alternative
means of compliance, applicable to their designs, to be accepted under
Sec. 23.2010.
Further information on supplemental means of compliance is provided
in a part 23 means of compliance summary table and in the Small
Airplanes Issues List, which are available on the Small Airplanes--
Regulations, Policies & Guidance website.\5\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Means of Compliance Accepted in this Policy: The following is a
list of part 23, amendment 23-64, sections followed by their
corresponding means of compliance accepted by this notice. However, for
means of compliance identified in the following list, Aircraft Type
Code compliance matrix tables, which define applicability of the
individual requirements of given standards, are not accepted in any
ASTM F44 standard. Due to errors identified in the Aircraft Type Code
compliance matrix tables, applicability of individual requirements of
standards must be established with the Small Airplane Standards Branch.

at 1.1 VS0, and the airplane as nearly
as possible in trim, it shall be
possible to maintain approximately level
flight while retracting the flaps as
rapidly as possible with simultaneous
application of maximum continuous power.
If the level acceleration will result in
exceeding VFE of the initial flap
configuration prior to the flaps
reaching their selected setting, power
may be reduced after achieving 1.3 VFE
of the initial flap configuration. The
maneuver continues until the flaps reach
the selected setting and the airplane

configuration. If gated flap positions
are provided, the flap retraction may be
demonstrated in stages with power and
trim reset for level flight at 1.1 VS1,
in the initial configuration for each
stage:
(1) From the fully extended position to
the most extended gated position;
(2) Between intermediate gated positions,
if applicable; and

23.2620: ASTM F3264-19, sections 5.15 AND 10.5
Editorial, reapproval, revision or withdrawal: The FAA expects a
suitable consensus standard to be reviewed periodically. ASTM policy is
that a consensus standard should be reviewed in its entirety by the
responsible subcommittee and must be balloted for reapproval, revision,
or withdrawal, within five years of its last approval date. ASTM
reapproves a standard--denoted by the year of reapproval in parentheses
(e.g., F2427-05a(2013))--to indicate completion of a review cycle with
no technical changes made to the standard. ASTM issues editorial
changes--denoted by a superscript epsilon in the standard designation
(e.g., F3235-17[epsi]1)--to correct information that does
not change the meaning or intent of a standard. Any means of compliance
accepted by this notice that is based on a standard later reapproved or
editorially changed is also considered accepted without the need for a
NOA. ASTM revises a standard to make changes to its technical content.
Revisions to consensus standards serving as the basis for means of
compliance accepted by this notice will not be automatically accepted
and will require further FAA acceptance in order for the revisions to
be an accepted means of compliance.
