Description
Under a notice of proposed rule making, the FAA would add supersonic airplanes to the applicability of FAR Part 36 takeoff and landing noise certification regulations. Initially, the proposal would apply to SSTs with a mtow no greater than 150,000 pounds and a maximum cruise speed of Mach 1.8. This category would apply to the SSTs currently being developed for business aviation. Comments on the proposal are due by July 13.
