Description of content: Notice
of proposed rulemaking - The FAA proposes to amend certain airworthiness
regulations to standardize the criteria for conducting safety assessments for
systems, including flight controls and powerplants, installed on transport category airplanes. With this action, the FAA seeks to reduce risk
associated with airplane accidents and incidents that have occurred in
service, and reduce risk associated with new technology in flight control
systems. The intended effect of this proposed action is to improve aviation
safety by making system safety assessment (SSA) certification requirements
more comprehensive and consistent.
