Petition for Exemption

    Docket No.: FAA-2013-0221.
    Petitioner: The Boeing Company.
    Section(s) of 14 CFR Affected: 61.75(d)(2) and 61.117.
    Description of Relief Sought: By letter dated August 3, 2017, The 
Boeing Company petitioned the Federal Aviation Administration for an 
extension of and amendment to Exemption No. 10871, as amended. That 
exemption allows certain foreign pilots exercising private pilot 
privileges to fly as second-in-command (SIC) on Boeing aircraft while 
conducting evaluation and demonstration flights within the United 
States for potential buyers of those aircraft, or on behalf of their 
respective civil aviation authority (CAA). In its petition, Boeing 
asked for an amendment that would incorporate additional language to 
allow Boeing to conduct flights for demonstration and evaluation, on 
behalf of new or potential customers, or at the request of a foreign 
civil aviation authority, using new developmental test aircraft models.
