DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION


Federal Aviation Administration


14 CFR Part 121


[Docket No. FAA-2002-13464; Notice No. 02-17]
RIN 2120-AC84


 
Improved Seats in Air Carrier Transport Category Airplanes; 
Correction


AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.


ACTION: Supplemental notice of proposed rulemaking (SNPRM); correction.


-----------------------------------------------------------------------


SUMMARY: This document makes a correction to the proposed rule 
published in the Federal Register on October 4, 2002 (67 FR 62294), 
which proposes to require that all passenger and flight attendant seats 
in transport category airplanes used in part 121 passenger-carrying 
operations meet improved crashworthiness standards. The FAA 
inadvertently retained a paragraph in the preamble that should have 
been removed in the editing process of the original SNPRM. This 
document removes that paragraph.


FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Hal Jensen, Aircraft Certification 
Service, Aircraft Engineering Division, AIR-120, Federal Aviation 
Administration, 800 Independence Avenue, SW., Washington, DC 20591; 
telephone (202) 267-8807; facsimile (202) 267-5340.


SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On October 4, 2002, the FAA published Notice 
No. 02-17, Improved Seats in Air Carrier Transport Category Airplanes 
(67 FR 62294). The SNPRM proposed to amend the regulations to require 
that all passenger and flight attendant seats in transport category 
airplanes used in part 121 passenger-carrying operations meet improved 
crashworthiness standards. The FAA inadvertently retained a paragraph 
in the preamble that should have been removed in the editing process of 
the original SNPRM. In the preamble discussion of the new proposal, on 
page 62299, in the third column, the third paragraph states that the 
FAA is proposing an amendment to 14 CFR 121.583(a). The FAA does not 
propose an amendment to 14 CFR 121.583 and intended that this paragraph 
be removed in the editing process. This document removes that 
paragraph..


Correction


    In proposed rule FR Doc. 02-25051, published on October 4, 2002 (67 
FR 62294), make the following correction:
    1. On page 62299, in the third column, remove the third full 
paragraph, which begins ``The FAA also notes * * *''.


    Issued in Washington, DC on December 13, 2002.

Assistant Chief Counsel for Regulations.
