Airworthiness Directives; Airbus Canada Limited Partnership (Type Certificate Previously Held by C Series Aircraft Limited Partnership (CSALP); Bombardier, Inc.) Airplanes
The FAA is superseding Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2024-04- 11, which applied to certain Airbus Canada Limited Partnership Model BD-500-1A10 and BD-500-1A11 airplanes. AD 2024-04-11 required modifying the variable frequency generator (VFG) power-feeder harness routing. Since the FAA issued AD 2024-04-11, the FAA received a report of damage to a VFG power-feeder harness, resulting in the loss of the associated VFG and the posting of the L GEN FAIL (Caution) message. This AD continues to require modifying the VFG power-feeder harness routing, and also requires inspecting the VFG power-feeder harnesses for damage and clearance, repairing or replacing the VFG power-feeder harnesses if necessary, modifying and adjusting the VFG power-feeder harnesses if necessary, and prohibiting dispatch of certain airplanes under certain master minimum equipment list (MMEL) items; as specified in a Transport Canada emergency AD, which is incorporated by reference. The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
Standard Instrument Approach Procedures, and Takeoff Minimums and Obstacle Departure Procedures; Miscellaneous Amendments
This rule amends, suspends, or removes Standard Instrument Approach Procedures (SIAPs) and associated Takeoff Minimums and Obstacle Departure Procedures for operations at certain airports. These regulatory actions are needed because of the adoption of new or revised criteria, or because of changes occurring in the National Airspace System, such as the commissioning of new navigational facilities, adding new obstacles, or changing air traffic requirements. These changes are designed to provide for the safe and efficient use of the navigable airspace and to promote safe flight operations under instrument flight rules at the affected airports.

Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards; Anti-Ejection Glazing for Bus Portals; Bus Emergency Exits and Window Retention and Release
This final rule establishes Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 217a, "Anti-ejection glazing for bus portals; Mandatory applicability beginning October 30, 2027," to drive the installation of advanced glazing in over-the-road buses (motorcoaches) and other large buses to reduce passenger and driver ejections. This final rule, issued pursuant to the Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act (MAP-21), specifies impactor tests of the glazing material of side and roof windows. The impactor and impact speed simulate the loading from an average size unrestrained adult male impacting a window on the opposite side of a large bus in a rollover.
