This notice announces a Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) proposed policy on hazardous misleading attitude information. It covers the display of hazardously misleading attitude information, which should be considered a catastrophic failure condition at the aircraft level. This notice is necessary to advise the public of this FAA policy and give all interested persons an opportunity to present their views on it.

This action corrects a final rule (Airspace Docket No. 04-ASW- 11) published in the Federal Register on December 13, 2004 (69 FR 72113). In that rule, the effective date was inadvertently published as January 20, 2005. The correct effective date is March 17, 2005. This action corrects that error.

Pursuant to FAA's rulemaking provisions governing the application, processing, and disposition of petitions for exemption, part 11 of Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR), this notice contains the disposition of certain petitions previously received. The purpose of this notice is to improve the public's awareness of, and participation in, this aspect of FAA's regulatory activities. Neither publication of this notice nor the inclusion or omission of information in the summary is intended to affect the legal status of any petition or its final disposition.
