## Petition for Exemption

*Docket No.:*                         FAA-2009-0623.                    

*Petitioner:*                         Cirrus Design Corporation.                    

*Section of 14 CFR Affected:*14 CFR 23.562(b) and 23.785(a).                    

*Description of Relief Sought:*                         Cirrus requests an exemption to the occupant weights specified in §§ 23.562(b) and 23.785(a) for its Model SF50 aircraft, regarding optional small occupant passenger seats designed for passengers weighing no more than 90 pounds.
