AFS-11-076-E Dec 30 2010 Exemption No. 8847B Regulatory Docket No. FAA-2002-13887

Mr. Henry Canterbury

4711 North Litchfield Knoll South Litchfield Park, AZ 85340

Dear Mr. Canterbury:

This letter is to inform you that we have granted your petition to extend Exemption No. 8847, as amended. It explains the basis for our decision and describes its effect.

The Basis for Our Decision

By letter dated November 26, 2010, you petitioned the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) for an extension of Exemption No. 8847, as amended. That exemption from § 91.1099a) and (b)(3) of Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations allows you to conduct certain flight instruction and simulated instrument flights to meet the recent experience requirements in certain Beechcraft airplanes equipped with a functioning throwover control wheel in place of functioning dual controls.

In your petition, you indicate that there has been no change in the conditions and reasons relative to public interest and safety that were the basis for granting the original exemption.

The FAA has determined that good cause exists for not publishing a summary of the petition in the Federal Register because the requested extension of the exemption would not set a precedent, and any delay in acting on this petition would be detrimental to you.

Our Decision

The FAA has determined that the justification for the issuance of Exemption No. 8847, as amended, remains valid with respect to this exemption and is in the public interest. Therefore, under the authority provided by 49 U.S.C. 40113 and 44701, which the FAA2

Administrator has delegated to me, I grant your petition. All conditions and limitations of Exemption No. 8847, as amended, remain the same and are as follows:
