Background

    The FAA is posting this notice to inform the public that the FAA 
intends to designate Emerald Enterprises LTD. TC No. A9WE for the Wing 
Aircraft Model D-1 airplane as abandoned and subsequently release the 
related engineering data.
    The FAA has received a third-party request for the release of data 
for the Wing Aircraft Model D-1 airplane under the provisions of the 
Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552. The FAA cannot release 
commercial or financial information, such as the requested data, under 
FOIA without the permission of the data owner. However, in accordance 
with title 49 of the United States Code Sec.  44704(a)(5), the FAA can 
make TC ``engineering data'' in possession of the FAA available upon 
request if the FAA determines that the TC has been inactive for 3 or 
more years and, using due diligence, the FAA is unable to locate the 
owner of record or the owner of record's heir. There has been no 
activity on this TC for more than 3 years.
    On November 3, 2021, the FAA sent a registered letter to Emerald 
Enterprises LTD. c/o Hillyer & Irwin, at its last known address, 550 
West C St. 16th Floor, San Diego, CA 92101. The letter informed Emerald 
Enterprises LTD. that the FAA had received a request for engineering 
data related to TC No. A9WE and was conducting a due diligence search 
to determine whether the TC was inactive and may be considered 
abandoned. The letter further requested that Emerald Enterprises LTD. 
respond in writing within 60 days and state whether it is the holder of 
the TC. The FAA has also attempted to make contact with Emerald 
Enterprises LTD. by other means, including telephone communication and 
emails, but without success.

Information Requested

    If you are the owner or heir or a transferee of TC No. A9WE or have 
any knowledge regarding who may now hold TC No. A9WE, please contact 
Manuel Hernandez using a method described in this notice under FOR 
FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT. If you are the heir of the owner or the 
owner by transfer of TC No. A9WE, you must provide a notarized copy of 
your government-issued identification with a letter and background 
establishing your ownership of the TC and, if applicable, your 
relationship as the heir to the deceased holder of the TC.

Conclusion

    If the FAA does not receive any response by January 3, 2023, the 
FAA will consider TC No. A9WE abandoned and the FAA will proceed with 
the release of the requested data. This action is for the purpose of 
maintaining the airworthiness of an aircraft and enhancing aviation 
safety.

    Issued on June 30, 2022.
Christina Underwood,
Acting Director, Compliance & Airworthiness Division, Aircraft 
Certification Service.
