Federal Aviation Administration December 7, 2009 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

These special conditions are issued for the Embraer S.A., Model EMB-505 airplane. This airplane will have a novel or unusual design feature(s) associated with high fuel temperature. 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.

This rule establishes, amends, suspends, or revokes 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 safe and efficient use of the navigable airspace and to promote safe flight operations under instrument flight rules at the affected airports.

This action lowers the altitude floor within a part of the Atlantic Low Offshore Airspace Area. This action provides additional controlled airspace to enable air traffic control (ATC) to more efficiently handle arriving instrument flight rules (IFR) aircraft a various coastal airports along the United States (U.S.) east coast.

This action establishes Class E Airspace at Fort A.P. Hill, VA. Controlled airspace is necessary to accommodate new Standard Instrument Approach Procedures (SIAPs) at A.P. Hill AAF, Fort A.P. Hill, VA. The FAA is taking this action to enhance the safety and management of Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) operations for SIAPs at the airport.
