Petition for Exemption

[Docket No. FAA-2010-0468]

    Petitioner: Air Tractor, Inc.
    Section of 14 CFR Affected: 14 CFR 23.1001.
    Description of Relief Sought: To allow Air Tractor Inc. to modify 
ten model AT-802s with fuselage fuel tanks without meeting the fuel 
jettison maximum weight demonstration, fuel discharges clear of any 
part of the aircraft, and fuel or fumes do not enter any parts of the 
airplane requirements

[[Page 32838]]

in Sec.  23.1001(b), (c)(2), and (c)(3). Air Tractor, Inc. proposes 
conducting the maximum weight demonstration at 13,000 pounds or more 
versus the model AT 802 certificated weight of 16,000 pounds because 
the agricultural hopper removal will reduce the weight of the modified 
model AT-802. Air Tractor, Inc. also proposes using red dye water 
instead of fuel for the jettison test to conserve resources.
