PETITION FOR EXEMPTION
Docket No.: FAA-2015-3836.
Petitioner: Bombardier Inc.
Section(s) of 14 CFR Affected: Sec. 25.813(e)
Description of Relief Sought:
Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) Section
25.813(e) prohibits the installation of a door that separates any
passenger seat that is occupiable during takeoff and landing from any
passenger emergency exit. Bombardier Inc., seeks relief from this
requirement for the BD-700-2B12 Global 7000 and BD-700-2B13 Global 8000
to allow installation of one or more doors between passenger seats and
passenger emergency exits.
Furthermore, Bombardier Inc., requests that the exemption, if
granted, not include a condition (limitation) that would prohibit the
aircraft from being operated for hire pursuant to 14 CFR part 135.
The petitioner asserts that the aircraft and door(s) will
incorporate design features that assure passengers' ability to
recognize the location of emergency exits and access those exits;
thereby providing for an overall level of safety that is consistent
with the intent of the regulations.
