Aviation Rulemaking Advisory 

Committee—New Task 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Notice of a new task assignment 

for the Aviation Rulemaking Advisory 

Committee. 

SUMMARY: The FAA assigned the 

Aviation Rulemaking Advisory 

Committee (ARAC) a new task to 

provide recommendations regarding 

bird strike protection rulemaking, 

policy, and guidance for normal 

category rotorcraft and to provide 

recommendations to enhance the 

existing bird strike protection standards 

for transport category rotorcraft. The 

FAA amended its regulations to 

incorporate bird strike protection rules 

for transport category rotorcraft in 1996. 

Data shows an increase in the bird 

population and weight has resulted in 

an increase in bird strikes with both 

normal category rotorcraft and transport 

category rotorcraft. The increase in bird 

strikes has led to more frequent bird 

penetration into the cockpit and cabin 

areas, elevating the risk of potential 

serious injuries or fatalities to 

occupants. Direct bird impact to the 

pilot has led to partial or complete pilot 

incapacitation in numerous cases, 

increasing the risk of fatalities. 

This notice informs the public of the 

new ARAC activity and solicits 

membership for the Rotorcraft Bird 

Strike Working Group.

B. Roach, Federal Aviation 

Administration, 10101 Hillwood

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

ARAC Acceptance of Task 

As a result of the March 23, 2016,

Group. The Rotorcraft Bird Strike 

Working Group will serve as staff to the 

ARAC and provide advice and 

recommendations on the assigned task. 

The ARAC will review and accept the 

recommendation report and will submit 

it to the FAA. 

Background

provide information, advice, and 

recommendations on aviation-related
