FAA Issues Special Conditions for Pratt and Whitney Canada's PW210S Turboshaft Engine

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has issued special conditions for Pratt and Whitney Canada's (PWC) model PW210S turboshaft engine, which will operate in auxiliary power unit (APU) mode, a novel design feature not adequately addressed by existing airworthiness regulations. The special conditions aim to establish safety standards equivalent to those of the existing regulations.
