Harmonization of Miscellaneous Rotorcraft Regulations

This document proposes changes to the type certification requirements for normal and transport category rotorcraft. The change would amend the airworthiness standards to require a cockpit indication of autopilot operating mode to the pilots for certain autopilot configurations, to clarify the burn test requirements for electrical wiring for transport category rotorcraft, and to provide a new requirement for an electrical wire burn test for normal category rotorcraft. The proposed rule would also add a 1.33 fitting factor structural strength requirement to the attachment of litters and berths. The proposed changes to 14 CFR parts 27 and 29 (parts 27 and 29) are harmonized with the European Joint Aviation Requirements (JAR) 27 and 29.
