Dear Sir or Madam: 

The Federal Aviation Administration ("FAA") issued Exemption Number 9292 in 

Washington, DC on May 16, 2007, to Dassault Falcon Jet Corp. ("DFJ") based upon the 

supportive information contained in DFJ's "Petition For Exemption From Section 47.65 

and 47.69(b) of the Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR)," the original of which was 

dated and forwarded to your office on January 10, 1991. That exemption will expire on 

May 31, 2012 (copy enclosed). 

The descriptive information contained in DFJ's Petition For Exemption is still accurate, 

and DFJ's need for the Exemption still exists. 

Accordingly, DFJ hereby respectfully requests that the FAA grant an extension of 

Exemption Number 9292 for the maximum extension allowable. The extension notice, 

once granted, should be forwarded to: 

Mr. Peter S. Rothwell

Dear Mr. Boyle: 

This is in response to your March 28,2007, letter petitioning the Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA) on behalf of Dassault Falcon Jet Corporation (Dassault) for an 

extension of Exemption No. 5315, as amended. This exemption from §§ 47.65 and 47.69(b) 

of Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) permits Dassault to obtain a Dealer's 

Aircrafl Registration Certificate without meeting the United States citizenship requirements 

and to conduct limited flights outside the United States under this certificate. 

In your petition, you indicate that the conditions and reasons regarding public interest and 

safety, presented in the original petition upon which tiie exemption was granted, remain 

unchanged. 

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 Dassault. 

The FAA has determined that the justification for the issuance of Exemption No. 5315, 

as amended, remaios valid with respect to this exemption. 

Li consideration of the foregomg, I find that a grant of exemption is in the public interest. 

Therefore, pursuant to the authority contamed in 49 U.S.C. §§ 40113 and 44701, delegated to 

me by the Administrator, Exemption No. 5315, as amended, is hereby further amended by

GRANT OF TEMPORARY EXEMPTION 

By a grant of temporary exemption, the Federal Aviation 

Administration authorized Dassault Falcon Jet Corporation to 

obtain a Dealer's Aircraft Registration Certificate without 

meeting the United States citizenship requirements and to 

conduct limited flights outside the United States, exempt from 

the provisions of Sections 47.65 and 47.69(b) of the Federal 

Aviation Regulations. The exemption was granted for a period 

of two years to allow the agency to consider amending the 

regulations. Since a final decision.is still pending, an 

extension of the May 30, 1991, exemption is in order to prevent 

disruption of the petitioner's operations being conducted under 

the authority of the exemption. The justification for the 

grant remains the same. 

The Federal Aviation Administration has determined that good 

cause exists not to delay the processing of Dassault's petition 

for publication and comments in the Federal Register. This 

delay would have an adverse effect on Dassault, and the 

exemption is not precedent setting in nature. 

Accordingly, the Grant of Temporary Exemption dated May 30, 

1991, to Dassault Falcon Jet Corporation is hereby extended to 

May 30, 1997, subject to the same terms and conditions stated 

in the original grant. A copy of this extension shall be 
carried with a copy of the Grant of Temporary Exemption 

No. 5315 dated May 30, 1991, on all flights outside the United 

States made under the exemption. 

Unless sooner superseded or rescinded, this exemption expires 

on May 30, 1997.

GRANT OF EXEMPTION 

By letter dated January 10, 1991, Matthew A. Boyle, Vice-President and General 

Counsel of Falcon Jet Corporation (FJC) petitioned, the Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA) for an exemption from Section 47.65 and 47.69(b) of the 

Federal Aviation Regulations (PARS) to permit petitioner to obtain a Dealer's 

Aircraft Registration Certificate without meeting the United States 

citizenship requirements and to permit petitioner to conduct limited flights 

outside of the United States under the certificate. 

Section 47.65 provides that to be eligible for a Dealer's Aircraft 

Registration Certificate, the applicant must have an established place of 

business in the United States, must be substantially engaged In manufacturing 

or selling aircraft, and must be a citizen of the United States as defined by 

Section 101(16) of the Federal Aviation Act of 1958 (49 U.S.C. 1301). 

Section 47.69(b) states, in pertinent part, that: 

"A Dealer's Aircraft Registration Certificate is valid only in 

connection with the use of aircraft 

f f A Jf 

(b) Within the United States, except when used to deliver to a foreign 

purchaser an aircraft displaying a temporary registration number and 

carrying an airworthiness certificate on which that number is written." 

The petitioner"s supportive information is as follows: 

FJC, a Delaware corporation, is a wholly owned subsidiary of Dassault Aviation 

(Dassault) the French manufacturer of executive jet aircraft marketed world 

wide under the trade name "Falcon" (i.e., Falcon (DA) 10, 20, 50, 200, and 

900). 
An exemption from Section 47.69(b) of the FAR would allow FJC to ferry fly the 

"green" aircraft from France and perform international demonstration flights. 

The exemptions will not affect the level of safety currently required by the 

FAA's rules and regulations since the relief requested does not directly nor 

indirectly involve safety related matters. 

In consideration of the foregoing, I find that a grant of exemption is in the 

public interest. Therefore, pursuant to the authority of Section 313(a) of 

the Federal Aviation Act of 1958, delegated to me by the Administrator 

(14 CFR 11.51), and subject to rulemaking in process, Falcon Jet Corporation 

is granted: 

a. An exemption from Section 47,65 of the PAR to the extent necessary to 

obtain a Dealer's Aircraft Registration Certificate without meeting 

citizenship requirements. This exemption is effective immediately and remains 

in effect unless superseded or rescinded. Falcon Jet Corporation will be 

issued a Dealer's Aircraft Registration Certificate upon receipt of a 

completed Application for Dealer's Aircraft Registration Certificate and the 

required fee. 

b- An exemption from Section 47,69(b) of the FAR to the extent necessary 

to permit the use of Dealer's Aircraft Registration Certificates outside the 

United States in connection with ferry flights of "green" Falcon aircraft from 

France and for demonstrating, testing, selling, and marketing its aircraft, 

subject to the following conditions and limitations: 

(1) The aircraft must be owned by Falcon Jet Corporation; 

(2) The aircraft must have a temporary registration number or an 

assigned registration number affixed as provided by Part 45 of the FAR; 

(3) When the aircraft does not have a standard airworthiness 

certificate, permission of the host country (coxmtries) must be obtained 

before flights to or through that country. 

(4) Falcon Jet Corporation shall maintain records of each 

international flight for a period of one year after the aircraft returns to 

the United States, and such records to consist of: 

(a) Registration number and manufacturer's serial number; 

(b) Dates of departure and return to the United States; and 

(c) General overseas itinerary. 
A copy of this exemption must be carried in each aircraft operated outside the 

United States, The aircraft is hereby certified to be registered in 

accordance with the laws of the United States. Unless sooner superseded or 

rescinded, this Exemption expires on May 30, 1993,
