DATES: Comments must be received on or before November 30, 2004. ADDRESSES: Send all comments on the proposed policy to expand the restricted category special purpose operation to include glider towing to: Federal Aviation Administration, Aircraft Certification Service, Aircraft Engineering Division, Certification Procedures Branch, AIR-110, Room 815, 800 Independence Avenue, SW., Washington, DC 20591.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr. Graham Long, AIR-110, Room, 815, Federal Aviation Administration, Aircraft Certification Service, Aircraft Engineering Division, 800 Independence Avenue, SW., Washington, DC 20591, Telephone
(202)267-3715, Fax:
(202)237-5340, or e-mail: *9-AWA-AIR110-GNL2@FAA.GOV* . SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Comments Invited Interested persons are invited to comment on the proposed policy listed in this notice by submitting such written data, views, or arguments, as they desire to the above address. Comments received on the proposed policy may be examined, before and after the comment closing date, in Room 815, FAA Headquarters Building, 800 Independence Avenue, SW., Washington, DC 20591, weekdays except Federal holidays, between 8:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. The Director of the Aircraft Certification Service will consider all communications received on or before the closing date before issuing the final policy. Background Glider towing is not currently specified as a restricted category special purpose flight operation, although a similar activity such as banner towing is accepted. Following a request by the Soaring Society of America, we propose that glider towing be accepted as a new special purpose in restricted category, limited to civil-derived restricted category aircraft certificated under 14 CFR 21.25(a)(1). This action is intended to increase the number of airplanes available to glider clubs throughout the country by making available to them tow aircraft that are currently certificated for other uses, such as agricultural spraying. How To Obtain Copies You may get a copy of the proposed policy from the Internet at: *http://www.faa.gov/Certification/Aircraft/DraftDoc/Comments.htm* , under Draft Policy Memos. You may also request a copy from Mr. Graham Long. *See* the section entitled FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT for the complete address. Dated: Issued in Washington, DC, on October 21, 2004. Nancy C. Lane, Acting Assistant Manager, Aircraft Engineering Division, Aircraft Certification Service. [FR Doc. 04-24372 Filed 11-1-04; 8:45 am]
