Sec. 21.16  Special conditions.



    If the Administrator finds that the airworthiness regulations of 

this subchapter do not contain adequate or appropriate safety standards 

for an aircraft, aircraft engine, or propeller because of a novel or 

unusual design feature of the aircraft, aircraft engine or propeller, he 

prescribes special conditions and amendments thereto for the product. 

The special conditions are issued in accordance with Part 11 of this 

chapter and contain such safety standards for the aircraft, aircraft 

engine or propeller as the Administrator finds necessary to establish a 

level of safety equivalent to that established in the regulations.
