Discussion

    This appendix and policy statement do not introduce new policy or 
regulation but provide a compilation of existing regulation, guidance, 
and procedures in the application of the AML STC process for 
certification projects. The AML STC process may be used whenever the 
ACO and applicant agree that it is appropriate. The AML STC process may 
also be effective for a certification project of an aircraft under 
another certification basis. The applicant should coordinate with the 
appropriate ACO for final determination.

    Issued in Kansas City, Missouri on May 21, 2003.
Michael Gallagher,
Manager, Small Airplane Directorate, Aircraft Certification Service.
