On February 21, 2014, the FAA published a final rule entitled, “Helicopter Air Ambulance, Commercial Helicopter, and part 91 Helicopter Operations” (79 FR 9932) (effective date delayed on April 21, 2014, at 79 FR 22012). In that final rule, the FAA addressed helicopter air ambulance operations and all commercial helicopter operations conducted under part 135. The FAA also established new weather minimums for helicopters operating under part 91 in Class G airspace.
The FAA is correcting § 91.155 and removing duplicative flight visibility requirements for part 91 helicopter operations in Class G airspace. Also, the FAA is correcting the regulatory text in § 135.609 to delineate visual flight rule operations and instrument flight rules operations. Finally, the agency is correcting the regulatory text in § 135.621(b) and clarifying the intended list of topics that must be included in the certificate holder's FAA-approved medical personnel training program.

1. On page 9973, in § 91.155, revise the entry “For helicopters: Day” in the table in paragraph (a) to read as follows:

2. On page 9975, in the third column, in § 135.609, revise paragraph (a) introductory text to read as follows:

3. On page 9978, in the third column, in § 135.621, revise paragraph (b) to read as follows:
