Petition for Exemption

    Docket No.: FAA-2018-0742.
    Petitioner: Aero-Flite, Inc.
    Section(s) of 14 CFR Affected: 91.213.
    Description of Relief Sought: Aero-Flite, Inc. (Aero-Flite) is 
seeking exemption for relief from the requirement in Sec.  91.213 that 
no person may take off an aircraft with inoperative instruments or 
equipment installed unless, among other things, an approved Minimum 
Equipment List (MEL) exists for that aircraft. Aero-Flite notes that an 
MEL does not exist for the CL-415 aircraft that it operations. As such, 
Aero-Flite cannot operate such aircraft unless all instruments and 
equipment are operative at all times. Under the relief requested, Aero-
Flite would conduct a risk assessment to determine if an inoperative 
instrument or equipment could be deferred and operations continued.
