Normal, utility, acrobatic and commuter aircraft certified under Part 23 will be included in a comprehensive review of the regulations that is being launched later this month by FAA.
The agency will schedule at least public meetings three two-day meetings to explore potential future policy rulemaking for small aircraft, covering not only certification standards, but other regulations concerning small aircraft, including maintenance and operations. The FAA wants comment from manufacturers, pilots, owners, mechanics, instructors and other interested parties.
?The last throughout review of Part 23 requirements occurred more than 25 years ago,? the FAA said. ?Due to this long interval, this regulatory review goes beyond the traditional regulatory reviews. These efforts will affect the next 20 years of small airplane design, certification and operations.?
The first meeting is scheduled from 8 a.m. until 5 p.m. Februay 23 and February 24 at the Marriott in Wichita, Kansas. For more information, contact Lowell Foster in FAA Regulations and Policy, at (816) 329.4125 or e-mail him at lowell.foster@faa.gov.
