SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background

    On November 20, 2023, the FAA issued final airworthiness criteria 
for the ICON Model A5-B airplane, which published in the Federal 
Register on November 28, 2023 (88 FR 83019). As published, the document 
incorrectly referred to the wrong aircraft and engine model numbers. 
Additionally, the FAA has certified the engine, as indicated by type 
certificate data sheet (TCDS) E00051EN, and therefore the additional 
airworthiness criteria listed in Table 8: FAA Validation of EASA State 
of Design Reciprocating Aircraft Engines is no longer required. The 
criteria as published would have applied to an engine certified by the 
European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) that did not have a 
corresponding FAA type certificate.

Correction

    In the Federal Register of Tuesday, November 28, 2023, appearing at 
88 FR 83019, make the following corrections:

    a. In the first column in the document's subject heading, correct 
aircraft model number to read ``A5-B'';
    b. In the first column, in the SUMMARY section, correct aircraft 
model number to read ``A5-B'';
    c. In the first and second columns, under the heading 
``Background,'' in the second paragraph, correct the engine model 
number ``Rotax 912 iS Sport'' to read ``Rotax 912 iSc2 Sport'' and 
correct the last sentence of the second paragraph to read ``The FAA 
does not plan to issue a TC for the propeller'';
    d. In the third column, under the heading ``Airworthiness 
Criteria,'' correct the second paragraph to read ``The airworthiness 
criteria for the issuance of a TC for the ICON Aircraft, Inc., Model 
A5-B airplane, a primary category airplane, and its powerplant 
installation is listed in Tables 1 through 7 below'';
    2. On page 83020, in ``Table 1: Airplane Certification Basis,'' in 
the subject entry for ``Engine''--
    a. In the ``Consensus standard or regulation'' column, correct ``14 
CFR part 33, Amendment 33-34'' to read ``14 CFR part 33'';
    b. In the ``Title and description'' column, correct the description 
to read ``Utilize the certification basis as indicated for the engine 
TCDS E00051EN''; and
    3. On page 83022, in the first column--
    a. Remove the first paragraph;
    c. Remove ``Table 8: FAA Validation of EASA State of Design 
Reciprocating Aircraft Engines''; and
