## 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.
