June 5, 2015 - The
Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is leading
a global initiative with industry and other
civil aviation authorities to develop a
performance-based approach to airworthiness
standards for Part 23 general aviation (GA)
airplanes.
Its a top priority for the FAA and the agency's
work is the basis for similar efforts in Europe. The rewrite of Part 23 will set a standard that
improves safety, enables innovation, streamlines
the certification process and reduces costs by
using international consensus standards to
implement the regulations.
The FAA and our global aviation partners are
committed to streamlining the certification
process for general aviation airplanes while
enhancing safety throughout the world, said FAA
Administrator Michael Huerta. The FAA is working
on completing our proposal as quickly as
possible.
