The FAA proposes to update its manual requirements to reflect industry use of electronic and paper versions. The amendments would apply to Part 91K and 135 on-demand operators, as well as air carriers. The proposed action would require manuals accessed in paper format to display the date of last revision on each page, and require manuals accessed in electronic format to display the date of last revision in a manner in which a person can immediately ascertain it. This action would also revise the requirement for program managers or certificate holders to carry appropriate parts of the manual aboard airplanes during operations by ensuring they are accessible to flight, ground, and maintenance personnel. Lastly, the proposed rule would update outdated language that refers to accessing information in manuals kept in microfiche. Comments are due Sept. 12, 2022.
