Petition for Exemption

    Docket No.: FAA-2012-0620.
    Petitioner: Cecilia Braithewaite.
    Section of 14 CFR Affected: 14 CFR 121.311(b).
    Description of Relief Sought: This is a request for an exemption 
from Sec.  121.311(b) to the extent required for two typically 
developing children to use FAA Approved Child Restraint Systems (CRS) 
on an aircraft, even though the children exceed the weight limits for 
the CRS. The petitioner requests that these children be allowed to 
occupy an FAA Approved Child Restraint (CARES, manufactured by AmSafe, 
Inc.), even though they exceed the manufacturer's weight limits of 44 
pounds. In this case, the safety of these children is greatly enhanced 
by the extra support and security that the FAA Approved Restraint 
System will provide for them during the flight.
