The FAA proposed a rule to revise certain design standards for new transport category airplanes. The proposal would standardize the criteria for conducting safety assessments to reduce the likelihood of potentially catastrophic risks due to undetected failures.

The FAA signed this notice of proposed rulemaking on November 30, 2022. The published document could contain minor changes due to formatting and editorial requirements, and the docket will not go live until publication. Upon publication, the document can be found on the Federal Register’s website at www.federalregister.gov and parties may submit comments in the docket at www.regulations.gov.
