Background This draft advisory circular
(AC)provides guidance and acceptable methods, but not the only methods, that may be used to demonstrate compliance with the bird ingestion requirements of § 33.76 of the Federal Regulations, Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations once that regulation becomes final. A proposal to amend the Federal Aviation Regulations by adding a new section, § 33.76, was published in the **Federal Register** on December 11, 1998 (64 FR 68635). Although this draft AC does refer to regulatory requirements that would be mandatory, this draft AC is not, in itself, mandatory. This AC would neither change any regulatory requirements nor authorizes changes in or deviations from the regulatory requirements. This effort was adopted as a part 33 and Joint Aviation Regulations for engines (JAR-E) harmonization project and was selected as an Aviation Rulemaking Advisory Committee
(ARAC)project. This draft AC provides information and guidance that addresses Federal Aviation Administration
(FAA)type certification standards for aircraft turbine engines with regard to bird ingestion. The requirements under § 33.76 reflect recent analysis of the bird threat encountered in service by turbine engine powered aircraft. This advisory circular, published under the authority granted to the Administrator by 49 U.S.C. 106(g), 40113, 44701-44702, 44704, provides guidance for these proposed requirements. Issued in Burlington, Massachusetts, on April 12, 2000. Thomas A. Boudreau, Acting Manager, Engine and Propeller Directorate, Aircraft Certification Service. [FR Doc. 00-9839 Filed 4-18-00; 8:45 am]
