Drug and Alcohol Testing Program; Technical Amendment
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is making minor technical changes to a final rule published in the Federal Register on May 14, 2009.

In that final rule the FAA inadvertently did not include an instruction to amend a cross-reference to two appendices.
Revisions to Digital Flight Data Recorder Regulations for Boeing 737 Airplanes and for All Part 125 Airplanes
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is amending a final rule published in the Federal Register on December 2, 2008. That final rule amended the regulations governing flight data recorders to increase the number of digital flight data recorder parameters for all Boeing 737 series airplanes manufactured after August 18, 2000. The rule also adopts a prohibition on deviations from flight recorder requirements for all airplanes operated under part 125. In our changes to part 125, the FAA incorrectly referenced the appendix containing airplane flight recorder specifications as appendix M when it is actually appendix E.
Revisions to Cockpit Voice Recorder and Digital Flight Data Recorder Regulations
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is amending a final rule published in the Federal Register on March 7, 2008.

Membership in the National Parks Overflights Advisory Group Aviation Rulemaking Committee
By Federal Register notice (See 74 FR 16442; April 10, 2009) the National Park Service (NPS) and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) invited interested persons to apply to fill six upcoming openings on the National Parks Overflights Advisory Group (NPOAG) Aviation Rulemaking Committee (ARC). The notice invited interested persons to apply to fill six vacancies representing commercial air tour operators (2), general aviation (1), Native American tribal (1), and environmental (2) concerns due to the incumbent members' completion of three-year term appointments on October 9, 2009. This notice informs the public of the persons selected to fill four of the six vacancies on the NPOAG ARC. Vacancies filled include the two commercial tour operator openings, the general aviation opening, and one of the environmental openings. Since the previous notice did not draw enough responses from individuals for the Native American tribal opening or the remaining environmental vacancy, NPS and FAA are also using this notice to invite other interested individuals to apply for these two remaining openings. If you responded to the initial notice, for either the Native American tribal or environmental openings, you will still be under consideration and need not re-apply.
