Modification of Certain Medical Standards and Procedures and Duration of Certain Medical Certificates; Correcting Amendment
Document Number: E8-19039
Type: Rule
Date: 2008-08-18
Agency: Federal Aviation Administration, Department of Transportation
The FAA is correcting amendatory language and regulatory text regarding one paragraph of the final rule entitled ``Modification of Certain Medical Standards and Procedures and Duration of Certain Medical Certificates''. The rule extends the duration of first- and third-class medical certificates for certain individuals. The FAA intended to revise an entire paragraph of the section entitled ``Duration of a medical certificate''; however, the amendatory language incorrectly indicates that only one paragraph is being revised.
Airworthiness Standards: Rotorcraft Turbine Engines One-Engine-Inoperative (OEI) Ratings, Type Certification Standards
Document Number: E8-18936
Type: Rule
Date: 2008-08-18
Agency: Federal Aviation Administration, Department of Transportation
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is amending the One- Engine-Inoperative (OEI) rating definitions and type certification standards for 30-second OEI, 2-minute OEI, and 30-minute OEI ratings for rotorcraft turbine engines. This action revises the ratings' standards to reflect recent analyses of the ratings' use and lessons learned from completed engine certifications and service experience. This rule harmonizes FAA type certification standards for these ratings with the requirements of the European Aviation Safety Agency in the Certification Specifications for Engines and with proposed requirements for Transport Canada Civil Aviation, thus simplifying airworthiness approvals for import and export.
