[Docket No. FAA–2024–1310; Special
Conditions No. 25–873–SC]
Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA), DOT.
ACTION: Final special conditions.
AGENCY:
These special conditions are
issued for the Airbus Model A350–941
airplane. This airplane, as modified by
Aerocon Engineering Company
(Aerocon), will have a novel or unusual
design feature when compared to the
state of technology envisioned in the
airworthiness standards for transport
category airplanes. This design feature
is an installation of a lower lobe crew
rest (LLCR) compartment located under
the passenger cabin floor in the cargo
compartment. The applicable
airworthiness regulations do not contain
adequate or appropriate safety standards
for this design feature. These 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.
DATES: Effective December 13, 2024.

the type certification basis under
§ 21.101.
Background
The Airbus A350–941 airplane will
incorporate the following novel or
unusual design feature:
The installation of a LLCR under the
passenger cabin floor in the cargo
compartment.
On August 27, 2021, Aerocon applied
for a supplemental type certificate for a
LLCR installation in the Model A350–
941 airplane. The Airbus Model A350–
941 airplane is a twin-engine, transportcategory airplane with a maximum
takeoff weight of 623,908 pounds and
maximum seating for 480 passengers.
Type Certification Basis
Special Conditions: Aerocon
Engineering Company, Airbus Model
A350–941 Airplane; Forward Lower
Lobe Crew Rest Compartment
Installation
SUMMARY:
telephone and fax (206) 231–3208; email
daniel.jacquet@faa.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Under the provisions of 14 CFR
21.101, Aerocon must show that the
Airbus Model A350–941 airplane, as
changed, continues to meet the
applicable provisions of the regulations
listed in Type Certificate No. T000631B
or the applicable regulations in effect on
the date of application for the change,
except for earlier amendments as agreed
upon by the FAA.
If the Administrator finds that the
applicable airworthiness regulations
(e.g., 14 CFR part 25) do not contain
adequate or appropriate safety standards
for the Airbus A350–941 airplane
because of a novel or unusual design
feature, special conditions are
prescribed under the provisions of
§ 21.16.
Special conditions are initially
applicable to the model for which they
are issued. Should the applicant apply
for a supplemental type certificate to
modify any other model included on the
same type certificate to incorporate the
same novel or unusual design feature,
these special conditions would also
apply to the other model under § 21.101.
In addition to the applicable
airworthiness regulations and special
conditions, the Airbus A350–941 series
airplane must comply with the exhaustemission requirements of 14 CFR part
34, and the noise-certification
requirements of 14 CFR part 36.
The FAA issues special conditions, as
defined in 14 CFR 11.19, in accordance
with § 11.38, and they become part of

Novel or Unusual Design Features
Discussion
Section 25.819 applies to lower deck
service compartments (including
galleys) but is not directly applicable to
forward LLCR compartments. The
applicable airworthiness regulations do
not contain adequate or appropriate
safety standards for this design feature.
Special conditions are required for the
certification of the LLCR to supplement
part 25.
The LLCR will be located under the
passenger cabin floor in the forward
cargo compartment of Airbus A350–941
model airplanes. It will be the size of
three standard airfreight containers and
be removeable from the cargo
compartment. Occupancy of the LLCR
will be limited to a maximum of eight
crew members, and it will only be
occupied in flight, i.e., not during taxi,
takeoff or landing. A smoke detection
system, fire extinguishing system,
oxygen system and occupant amenities
will be provided.
The LLCR will be accessed from the
main deck via a stair house. The floor
within the stair house has an access
hatch that leads to the stairs, which
occupants use to descend into the LLCR.
This hatch locks automatically in the
open position when fully opened. In
addition, there will be an emergency
hatch, which opens directly into the
main passenger cabin area.
The LLCR also has a maintenance
access/ground loading door, which
allows access to and from the cargo
compartment. The intended use of this
door is to allow cargo loading and
maintenance personnel to enter the
LLCR from the cargo compartment when
