Petition for Exemption

    Docket No.: FAA-2010-1221.
    Petitioner: Indigenous Peoples Technology and Education Center, 
Inc. (ITEC).
    Section of 14 CFR Affected: Sec.  21.190(c)(2).
    Description of Relief Sought: Petition for exemption from the 
Federal Aviation Regulations, Sec.  21.190(c)(2) to permit an 
additional weight allowance for a powered parachute (PPC) light-sport 
aircraft (LSA) intended for both flight operations and operation on 
public roadways, similar to the weight allowance for LSA intended for 
operation on water. A roadable PPC has similar weight penalties to an 
LSA intended for operation on water due to the additional equipment 
required to make the vehicle roadworthy, and therefore a similar weight 
allowance seems appropriate. This petition for exemption will allow 
ITEC to issue a statement of compliance (FAA Form 8130-15) for each 
ITEC ``Maverick'' PPC LSA for operation at the same weight prescribed 
by 14 CFR 1.1 for LSA intended for operation on water.
