Special Federal Aviation Regulation No. 36, Development of Major Repair Data

Résumé

This proposed rule would amend and extend Special Federal Aviation Regulation (SFAR) No. 36, which provides that holders of authorized repair station or aircraft operating certificates may approve aircraft products or articles for return to service after accomplishing major repairs using self-developed repair data that have not been directly approved by the FAA. Extension of the regulation would continue to provide, for those that qualify, an alternative from the requirement to obtain direct FAA approval of major repair data on a case-by-case basis.
