Operating Requirements: Domestic, Flag, Supplemental, Commuter, 
and On-Demand Operations: Editorial and Terminology Changes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: This amendment adopts changes to certain references and 
language in the regulations governing the operations of certificate 
holders under parts 121 and 135. Many of these changes are made 
necessary as a result of the issuance of new part 119, which has made 
numerous references in parts 121 and 135 incorrect or obsolete. The 
changes to parts 121 and 135 in this amendment will not impose any 
additional restrictions on persons affected by these regulations.

EFFECTIVE DATE: February 26, 1996.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On December 20, 1995, new part 119, Certification: Air Carriers and 
Commercial Operators, was published in the Federal Register (60 FR 
65913; December 20, 1995). Part 119 reorganizes, into one part, 
certification and operations specifications requirements that formerly 
existed in SFAR 38-2 and in parts 121 and 135. The final rule for new 
part 119 also deleted or changed certain sections in part 121, Subparts 
A--D, and part 135, Subpart A, because most of the requirements in 
those subparts appear in part 119. This amendment makes editorial and 
terminology changes in the remaining subparts of parts 121 and 135 to 
conform those parts to the language of part 119 and to make certain 
other changes.
    Part 119 was issued as part of a large rulemaking effort to upgrade 
the requirements that apply to scheduled operations conducted in 
airplanes that seat 10 to 30 passengers. These operations will in the 
future be conducted under the requirements of part 121, in accordance 
with the final rule published on December 20, 1995. The changes in this 
final rule are necessary as a result of the issuance of part 119, and 
as ``house-keeping'' items for commuter operations affected by the 
final rule published on December 20, 1995. These changes are consistent 
with the commuter rule.

Editorial Changes

    The new part 119 and revisions to parts 121 and 135 require certain 
editorial changes. These changes are being made for clarity and 
consistency and to facilitate combining the certification requirements 
of parts 121 and 135 into new part 119. None of these changes impose 
any additional requirements on persons affected by the regulations.
    The following are examples of changes being made in this final rule 
to the sections remaining in part 121 and part 135 in order to make 
these sections consistent with each other and with new part 119 and to 
reflect current FAA administrative procedures:
    (1) References to ``domestic, flag, or supplemental air carriers'' 
have been changed to ``domestic, flag, or supplemental operations,'' or 
``certificate holder conducting domestic, flag, or supplemental 
operations,'' as appropriate. Likewise, the term ``commercial 
operator'' has been changed to refer to the type of operation, such as 
``domestic operation,'' or to ``certificate holder.''
    (2) References to an ``ATCO Operating Certificate'' have been 
changed to ``Air Carrier Operating Certificate or Operating 
Certificate.''
    (3) References to ``Flight Standards District Office'' and 
``District Office'' have been changed to ``certificate-holding district 
office.''
    (4) Language changes have been made for consistency and to 
facilitate computer searches for certain terms; for example, 
``principal operations base'' is changed to ``principal base of 
operations.''
    (5) Obsolete compliance dates have been removed. These dates were 
originally included in the regulations as a convenience to give 
certificate holders the schedule for complying with certain 
regulations. Now that these dates are past, they are being removed.
    (6) References to the operation of rotorcraft have been removed 
from part 121 because, as a result of SFAR 38-2 and new part 119, all 
rotorcraft operations are now conducted under part 135.
    (7) Additionally, a correction is being made to Sec. 135.227(f) 
concerning operations in icing conditions. When the agency inserted a 
new paragraph (b) in Sec. 135.227 as part of the ground deicing final 
rule, and agency neglected to update certain references in what is now 
paragraph (f). This amendment corrects that oversight.
    (8) The definition of ``scheduled operation'' is corrected to the 
verbiage that appeared in the NPRM to eliminate a redundancy in the 
language.
    (9) Although the preamble states that section 119.58 is removed, 
the final rule language contained that section. Therefore, section 
119.58 is removed. Likewise, section 121.6 is removed for the same 
reason.
    (10) In the preamble to the final rule, the FAA states that section 
119.71, requirements for the Director of Maintenance, requires 3 years 
of experience within any amount of time; however the rule language for 
that section reads ``3 years of experience within 3 years . . .'' in 
both (e)(1) and (2). The FAA corrects the rule language to indicate 
this.

Age 60 Rule

    In the final rule published at 60 FR 65832, the delayed pilot age 
limitation contained an error as to which pilots it applies. Section 
121.2(i)(1) provides for delayed implementation of the Age 60 Rule 
(Sec. 121.383(c)) for certain pilots. Section 121.2(i)(2) defined those 
pilots as those employed by covered certificate holders ``on or before 
March 20, 1997.'' The intent, however, was to include only those pilots 
employed on March 20, 1997. See, for instance, the discussion in the 
preamble at 60 FR 65843. Accordingly, the words ``or before'' are being 
deleted from the rule.
    In addition, the FAA has received questions about the applicability 
of Sec. 121.2(i) to pilots employed by certificate holders with ``split 
certificates.'' An air carrier with a ``split certificate'' in this 
instance means an air carrier with authority to engage in both 
operations that have in the past been under part 121 (and will continue 
to be under part 121), and operations described in Sec. 121.2(a)(1) 
(which have been under part 135 but will be under part 121 under the 
new rule). Some people have asked whether a pilot who is employed by a 
certificate holder with a ``split certificate'' on March 20, 1997, is 
under the delayed compliance described in Sec. 121.2(i). The answer 
depends on the type of operations in which the pilot is employed on 
March 20, 1997. If the pilot is employed in operations described in 
Sec. 121.2(a)(1) on that date, the pilot may serve as a pilot in such 
operations until December 20, 1999. If the pilot is not employed in 
such operations on March 20, 1997, the 

[[Page 2609]]
pilot may not serve in Sec. 121.2(a)(1) operations after March 20, 
1997. To clarify this, Sec. 121.2(i)(2) is being amended to provide 
that the delayed compliance for the Age 60 Rule depends on the 
operations in which the pilot is employed on March 20, 1997. In 
addition, Sec. 121.2(i)(1) is being amended to provide that a pilot who 
has reached the age of 60 may only be used in operations covered in 
Sec. 121.2(a)(1).
    There has been some confusion regarding the overall impact of the 
delayed compliance date for the Age 60 Rule. The following discussion 
should assist in understanding the rule.
    The delayed compliance described in Sec. 121.2(i) applies only to 
those operations described in Sec. 121.2(a)(1), which identifies those 
commuter operations that were under part 135 and will transition to 
part 121 rules (that is, the ``covered operations''). The application 
of the Age 60 Rule to certificate holders who have in the past been 
under part 121 is not affected.
    On and before March 20, 1997, certificate holders may hire and use 
pilots in covered operations regardless of age.
    Starting on March 21, 1997, and through December 19, 1999, a 
certificate holder may hire and use in covered operations only the 
following pilots:

--persons who have not reached age 60;
--persons who, on March 20, 1997, were employed by that certificate 
holder as pilots in covered operations, regardless of current age; and
--persons who, on March 20, 1997, were employed by another certificate 
holder as pilots in covered operations, regardless of current age.

    Starting on December 20, 1999, no pilots who have reached their 
60th birthdays will be permitted in covered operations. As of that 
date, all operations under part 121 will be fully in compliance with 
the Age 60 Rule.
    In addition, in the appendix to this amendment, the FAA republishes 
four charts, Tables 1 through 4, contained in the final rule to correct 
minor errors made during the publication process.

Federalism Implications

    The regulations do not have substantial direct effects on the 
states, on the relationship between the national government and the 
states, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities among 
various levels of government. Thus, in accordance with Executive Order 
12612, it is determined that such a regulation does not have federalism 
implications warranting the preparation of a Federalism Assessment.

Paperwork Reduction Act

    The information collection requirements associated with this rule 
have already been approved. There will be no increase or decrease in 
paperwork requirements as a result of these amendments, since the 
changes are completely editorial in nature.

Good Cause Justification for Immediate Adoption

    This amendment is needed to conform parts 121 and 135 to the 
terminology of new part 119. In view of the need to expedite these 
changes, and because the amendment is editorial in nature and would 
impose no additional burden on the public, I find that notice and 
opportunity for public comment before adopting this amendment is 
unnecessary.

Conclusion

    The FAA has determined that this regulation imposes no additional 
burden on any person. Accordingly, it has been determined that the 
action: (1) is not a significant rule under Executive Order 12866; and 
(2) is not a significant rule under Department of Transportation 
Regulatory Policies and Procedures (44 FR 11034; February 26, 1979); 
Also, because this regulation is of editorial nature, no impact is 
expected to result and a full regulatory evaluation is not required. In 
addition, the FAA certifies that the rule will not have a significant 
economic impact, positive or negative, on a substantial number of small 
entities under the criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.
