completion prior to delivery of the first 

UA or issuance of a standard 

airworthiness certificate, whichever 

occurs later. 

Testing 

D&R.300 Durability and Reliability 

The UA must be designed to be 

durable and reliable when operated 

under the limitations prescribed for its 

operating environment, as documented 

in its CONOPS and included as 

operating limitations on the type 

certificate data sheet and in the UA 

Flight Manual. The durability and 

reliability must be demonstrated by 

flight test in accordance with the 

requirements of this section and 

completed with no failures that result in 

a loss of flight, loss of control, loss of 

containment, or emergency landing 

outside the operator’s recovery area. 

(a) Once a UA has begun testing to 

show compliance with this section, all 

flights for that UA must be included in 

the flight test report. 

(b) Tests must include an evaluation 

of the entire flight envelope across all 

phases of operation and must address, at 

a minimum, the following: 

(1) Flight distances; 

(2) Flight durations; 

(3) Route complexity; 

(4) Weight; 

(5) Center of gravity; 

(6) Density altitude; 

(7) Outside air temperature; 

(8) Airspeed; 

(9) Wind; 

(10) Weather; 

(11) Operation at night, if requested; 

(12) Energy storage system capacity; 

and 

(13) Aircraft to pilot ratio. 

(c) Tests must include the most 

adverse combinations of the conditions 

and configurations in paragraph (b) of 

this section. 

(d) Tests must show a distribution of 

the different flight profiles and routes 

representative of the type of operations 

identified in the CONOPS. 

(e) Tests must be conducted in 

conditions consistent with the expected 

environmental conditions identified in 

the CONOPS, including electromagnetic 

interference (EMI) and high intensity 

radiated fields (HIRF). 

(f) Tests must not require exceptional 

piloting skill or alertness. 

(g) Any UAS used for testing must be 

subject to the same worst-case ground 

handling, shipping, and transportation 

loads as those allowed in service. 

(h) Any UA used for testing must use 

AE that meet, but do not exceed, the 

minimum specifications identified 

under D&R.105. If multiple AE are 

identified, the applicant must 

demonstrate each configuration. 

(i) Any UAS used for testing must be 

maintained and operated in accordance 

with the ICA and UA Flight Manual. No 

maintenance beyond the intervals 

established in the ICA will be allowed 

to show compliance with this section. 

(j) If cargo operations or external-load 

operations are requested, tests must 

show, throughout the flight envelope 

and with the cargo or external-load at 

the most critical combinations of weight 

and center of gravity, that— 

(1) The UA is safely controllable and 

maneuverable; and 

(2) The cargo or external-load are 

retainable and transportable. 

D&R.305 Probable Failures 

The UA must be designed such that 

a probable failure will not result in a 

loss of containment or control of the 

UA. This must be demonstrated by test. 

(a) Probable failures related to the 

following equipment, at a minimum, 

must be addressed: 

(1) Propulsion systems; 

(2) C2 link; 

(3) Global Positioning System (GPS); 

(4) Flight control components with a 

single point of failure; 

(5) Control station; and 

(6) Any other AE identified by the 

applicant. 

(b) Any UA used for testing must be 

operated in accordance with the UA 

Flight Manual. 

(c) Each test must occur at the critical 

phase and mode of flight, and at the 

highest aircraft-to-pilot ratio. 

D&R.310 Capabilities and Functions 

(a) All of the following required UAS 

capabilities and functions must be 

demonstrated by test: 

(1) Capability to regain command and 

control of the UA after the C2 link has 

been lost. 

(2) Capability of the electrical system 

to power all UA systems and payloads. 

(3) Ability for the pilot to safely 

discontinue the flight. 

(4) Ability for the pilot to dynamically 

re-route the UA. 

(5) Ability to safely abort a takeoff. 

(6) Ability to safely abort a landing 

and initiate a go-around. 

(b) The following UAS capabilities 

and functions, if requested for approval, 

must be demonstrated by test: 

(1) Continued flight after degradation 

of the propulsion system. 

(2) Geo-fencing that contains the UA 

within a designated area, in all 

operating conditions. 

(3) Positive transfer of the UA 

between control stations that ensures 

only one control station can control the 

UA at a time. 

(4) Capability to release an external 

cargo load to prevent loss of control of 

the UA. 

(5) Capability to detect and avoid 

other aircraft and obstacles. 

(c) The UA must be designed to 

safeguard against inadvertent 

discontinuation of the flight and 

inadvertent release of cargo or external 

load. 

D&R.315 Fatigue 

The structure of the UA must be 

shown to withstand the repeated loads 

expected during its service life without 

failure. A life limit for the airframe must 

be established, demonstrated by test, 

and included in the ICA. 

D&R.320 Verification of Limits 

The performance, maneuverability, 

stability, and control of the UA within 

the flight envelope described in the UA 

Flight Manual must be demonstrated at 

a minimum of 5% over maximum gross 

weight with no loss of control or loss of 

flight.

FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS 

COMMISSION 

47 CFR Parts 64 and 76 

[GN Docket No. 17–142; FCC 22–12; FR ID 

76238] 

Improving Competitive Broadband 

Access to Multiple Tenant 

Environments 

AGENCY: Federal Communications 

Commission. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: In this document, the Federal 

Communications Commission 

(Commission or FCC) adopts final rules 

to improve competition for 

communications services in multitenant environments. The rules prohibit 

telecommunications carriers and 

covered multichannel video 

programming distributors (MVPDs) from 

entering into certain revenue sharing 

agreements with a building owner that 

keep competitive providers out of 

buildings. The rules also require 

providers to inform tenants about the 

existence of exclusive marketing 

arrangements in simple, easy-tounderstand language that is readily 

accessible. The Commission adopted the 

Report and Order in conjunction with a 

Declaratory Ruling in GN Docket No. 

17–142 in which the Commission 

clarifies that existing Commission rules 

regarding cable inside wiring prohibit 

so-called sale-and-leaseback 

arrangements that block competitive 

access to alternative providers. 

DATES: 

Effective date: This rule is effective 

April 27, 2022. 

Compliance dates: See paragraph 77 

of the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION for 

information on the compliance dates for 

47 CFR 64.2500(c), (d), and (e) and 

76.2000(b), (c), and (d).
