Dear Mr. Morales, 

\)'{: 

I am submitting FAA Form 7711-2 (Application for Certificate of Waiver or Authorization) to apply for 

an exception to the housing rule stated below as it pertains to ULD repairs 

The requirement to house the largest type and model aircraft listed on the operations specifications 

(Ref. 145.103(b). Airframe ratings are issued for a particular make and model aircraft, not for a part of 

an airframe. Limited Ratings. Repair stations are issued limited ratings for the performance of 

maintenance on particular makes and models of airframes, power plants, propellers, radios, 

instruments, accessories. To perform maintenance on ULO's you will need an airframe rating or<~ 

particular make and model aircraft. 

Similarly, articles of all cargo configured aircraft are considered part of the airframe and require 

an appropriate airframe rating. These include: 

• Unit loading devices (ULD), 

• Cargo pallets or containers, 

• Bulkheads, 

• Ball mats, 

• Floor roller tracks, and 

• Floor or side locks. 

Grouping the first two items on this list with permanently affixed components of the aircraft's loading 

system seems misguided as they are really temporary accessories. Because throughout the world and

for greater than 30 years an industry of FAA 145 Repair Stations that solely repair ULD's (containers, 

pallet, & nets) have been operating with Limited Air Frame Certification and without a housing 

requirement has existed so I am unclear on why it is an now an issue. Please see attached supporting 

documents; Air Agency Certificate, Ops Spec from ACLAS JFK. I can also provide GSP/MIA and pending 

NRT if you require. I hope that we are able to reach a speedy resolution. Thank you for your assistance.
