Order purpose statement

This notice introduces a new operations specification (OpSpec)/management specification (MSpec)/Letter of Authorization (LOA) C059 for Special Authorization (SA) Category (CAT) I operations. This notice also amends OpSpec/MSpec/LOA C052, Straight-in Non-Precision, APV, and Category I Precision Approach and Landing Minima, for operators conducting airplane operations under Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) parts 91 subpart K (91K), 121, 125 (including part 125 Letter of Deviation Authority (LODA) holders), 129, and 135. This notice also amends LOA C060, Category II and Category III Instrument Approach and Landing Operations, for operators conducting airplane operations under part 91. This is a nonmandatory revision to OpSpec/MSpec/LOA C052 and LOA C060. However, for those operators currently authorized SA CAT I operations via their issued C052 (parts 91K, 121, 125 (including part 125 LODA holders), 129, and 135) or C060 (part 91), it is required that these operators are issued the new C059 to authorize SA CAT I operations, and that C052 or C060, as applicable, be reissued to reflect the removal of the SA CAT I authorization. Operators seeking initial SA CAT I authorization who are subsequently approved must be issued the new OpSpec/MSpec/LOA C059.
