Background

    On March 9, 1999, the FAA issued Notice No. 23-98-05-SC (64 FR 
14401, March 25, 1999). This notice proposed special conditions for the 
Soloy Corporation Model Pathfinder 21 airplane. The proposal resulted 
from a request by Soloy Corporation for a supplemental type certificate 
for the Model Pathfinder 21 airplane.
    On April 21, 1999, Soloy Corporation requested that the comment 
period be extended in order to allow them sufficient time to comment on 
the proposals. The comment period was scheduled to close April 26, 
1999.

Conclusion

    Soloy requested the special conditions originally, and the request 
to extend the comment period came from Soloy. In view of this fact, and 
since Soloy may provide additional technical information, the FAA 
agrees that it would be in the public interest to grant Soloy 
Corporation's request to extend the comment period. Since the request 
to extend the comment period arrived near the end of the comment 
period, the FAA has decided to reopen the comment period. Accordingly, 
the comment period for Notice No. 23-98-05-SC, Docket No. CE149, is 
reopened until July 1, 1999.
