Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 58 / Monday, March 26, 2012 / Rules and Regulations 17327 

material that should be required to pass 

the heat release and smoke emissions 

requirements. We have determined that 

special conditions would be 

promulgated to apply the standards 

defined in 14 CFR 25.853(d) to seats 

with large, non-metallic panels in their 

design. 

Applicability 

As discussed above, these special 

conditions apply to Airbus A350–900 

series airplanes. Should Airbus apply 

later for a change to the type certificate 

to include another model incorporating 

the same novel or unusual design 

feature, the special conditions would 

apply to that model as well. 

Conclusion 

This action affects only certain novel 

or unusual design features on Airbus 

A350–900 series airplanes. It is not a 

rule of general applicability. 

List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 25 

Aircraft, Aviation safety, Reporting 

and recordkeeping requirements. 

■ The authority citation for these 

special conditions is as follows: 

Authority: 49 U.S.C. 106(g), 40113, 44701, 

44702, 44704. 

The Special Conditions 

So, by the authority delegated to me 

by the Administrator, the following 

special conditions are issued as part of 

the type certification basis for Airbus 

A350–900 series airplanes with 

passenger seats that have nontraditional, large, non-metallic panels. 

1. Compliance with 14 CFR part 25 

Appendix F, parts IV and V, heat release 

and smoke emission, is required for 

seats that incorporate non-traditional, 

large nonmetallic panels that may either 

be a single component or multiple 

components in a concentrated area in 

their design. 

2. The applicant may designate up to 

and including 1.5 square feet of nontraditional, nonmetallic panel material 

per seat place that does not have to 

comply with No. 1. A triple seat 

assembly may have a total of 4.5 square 

feet excluded on any portion of the 

assembly (e.g., outboard seat place 1 sq. 

ft., middle 1 sq. ft., and inboard 2.5 sq. 

ft.). 

3. Seats need not meet the test 

requirements of 14 CFR part 25 

Appendix F, parts IV and V when 

installed in compartments that are not 

otherwise required to meet these 

requirements. Examples include: 

a. Airplanes with passenger capacities 

of 19 or less, 

b. Airplanes exempted from smoke 

and heat release requirements.

to enhance the safety and management 

of Instrument Flight Rule (IFR) 

operations at the airport. 

DATES: Effective date: 0901 UTC, May

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

History 

On November 28, 2011, the FAA 

published in the Federal Register a 

notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) 

to amend Class E airspace for the 

Hastings, NE., area, creating additional 

controlled airspace at Hastings 

Municipal Airport (76 FR 72867) Docket 

No. FAA–2011–0499. Interested parties 

were invited to participate in this 

rulemaking effort by submitting written 

comments on the proposal to the FAA. 

No comments were received. Class E 

airspace designations are published in 

paragraph 6005 of FAA Order 7400.9V 

dated August 9, 2011, and effective 

September 15, 2011, which is 

incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 

Part 71.1. The Class E airspace 

designations listed in this document 

will be published subsequently in the 

Order. 

The Rule 

This action amends Title 14 Code of 

Federal Regulations (14 CFR) Part 71 by 

amending Class E airspace extending 

upward from 700 feet above the surface 

to accommodate new RNAV standard 

instrument approach procedures at 

Hastings Municipal Airport, Hastings, 

NE. This action is necessary for the 

safety and management of IFR 

operations at the airport. 

The FAA has determined that this 

regulation only involves an established 

body of technical regulations for which 

frequent and routine amendments are 

necessary to keep them operationally 

current. Therefore, this regulation: (1) Is 

not a ‘‘significant regulatory action’’
