Revised Access to Type III Exits

This document proposes amendments to the Federal Aviation Regulations (FAR) that would adjust recently adopted requirements for access to Type III emergency exits (typically smaller over-wing exits) in transport category airplanes with 60 or more passenger seats. These adjustments reflect additional data derived from a series of tests conducted at the FAA's Civil Aeromedical Institute (CAMI) subsequent to the adoption of these requirements and are intended to relieve an unnecessary economic burden. The proposed amendments would affect air carriers and commercial operators of transport category airplanes, as well as the manufacturers of such airplanes.
