Petition for Exemption 

Docket No.: FAA–2023–0754. 

Petitioner: Global Aviation 

Technologies. 

Section(s) of 14 CFR Affected: 

§§ 23.807(d)(1)(i), 23.807(e)(1)(2), and 

23.812. 

Description of Relief Sought: The 

petitioner requests relief from 

§ 23.807(d)(1)(i), which is a commuter 

category airplane safety requirement, 

that requires an airplane with a total 

passenger seating capacity of 15 or 

fewer to have an emergency exit on each 

side of the cabin (as defined in 

§ 23.807(b)) in addition to the passenger 

entry door. 

The petitioner also requests relief 

from § 23.807(e)(1) and (2) which are 

commuter category airplane safety 

requirements, that require an airplane’s 

ditching emergency exits to be above the 

waterline on each side or have a readily 

accessible overhead hatch. 

The petitioner also requests relief 

from § 23.812, which contains the safety 

requirements for commuter category 

airplanes for emergency lighting. 

The requested relief is for the Textron 

Model 390 airplane, Type Certificate 

A00010WI, which was certified as 

normal category. The petitioner’s project 

would increase the gross weight of the 

airplane which would necessitate 

compliance with the requirements for 

commuter category airplanes. The 

petitioner is not increasing the 

airplane’s passenger capacity.
