Rules and Regulations. Final rule; Correction

Agency: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT
Action: Final rule; Correction
Citation: FR Doc. 2016-31507 · RIN 2120-AK95 · Docket No.: FAA-2016-9526; Amdt. No. 121-377A · 14 CFR 121

Summary

The FAA is correcting a final rule published on December 16, 2016. In that final rule, which becomes effective on January 17, 2017, the FAA will allow air carriers to seek a deviation from the flight simulation training device (FSTD) requirements for related aircraft proficiency checks. As a result, that rule will eliminate an inconsistency that currently permits carriers that have obtained FAA approval to modify the FSTD requirements for related aircraft differences training, but not for corresponding proficiency checks. The FAA inadvertently listed an incorrect Amendment Number for that final rule. This document corrects that error.

Dates

Effective January 17, 2017.
