    <SUBJECT>Fuel jettisoning.</SUBJECT>
    <P>If a fuel jettisoning system is installed, the following apply:</P>
    <P>(a) Fuel jettisoning must be safe during all flight regimes for which jettisoning is to be authorized.</P>
    <P>(b) In showing compliance with paragraph (a) of this section, it must be shown that—</P>
    <P>(1) The fuel jettisoning system and its operation are free from fire hazard;</P>
    <P>(2) No hazard results from fuel or fuel vapors which impinge on any part of the rotorcraft during fuel jettisoning; and</P>
    <P>(3) Controllability of the rotorcraft remains satisfactory throughout the fuel jettisoning operation.</P>
    <P>(c) Means must be provided to automatically prevent jettisoning fuel below the level required for an all-engine climb at maximum continuous power from sea level to 5,000 feet altitude and cruise thereafter for 30 minutes at maximum range engine power.</P>
    <P>(d) The controls for any fuel jettisoning system must be designed to allow flight personnel (minimum crew) to safely interrupt fuel jettisoning during any part of the jettisoning operation.</P>
    <P>(e) The fuel jettisoning system must be designed to comply with the powerplant installation requirements of § 29.901(c).</P>

    <P>(f) An auxiliary fuel jettisoning system which meets the requirements of paragraphs (a), (b), (d), and (e) of this <PRTPAGE P="711"/>section may be installed to jettison additional fuel provided it has separate and independent controls.</P>
