Description

The FAA proposes to amend certain Part 25 (transport category airplanes) airworthiness regulations to standardize the criteria for conducting safety assessments for systems, including flight controls and powerplants on newly-certified airplanes. With this action, the FAA seeks to reduce the risk associated with accidents and incidents that have occurred in service, and reduce the risk associated with new technology in flight control systems, such as fly-by-wire. The intended effect of this proposed action is to improve aviation safety by making system safety assessment (SSA) requirements more comprehensive and consistent. Comments are due by March 8, 2023.
