Aviation Rulemaking Advisory Committee Meeting on Transport 
Airplane and Engine Issues

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of public meeting.

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

SUMMARY: This notice announces a public meeting of the FAA's Aviation 
Rulemaking Advisory Committee (ARAC) to discuss transport airplane and 
engine (TAE) issues.

DATES: The meeting is scheduled for May 14, 2004, from 11 a.m. to 1:30 
p.m.

ADDRESSES: Federal Aviation Administration, 800 Independence Ave, SW., 
Room 810, Washington, DC 20591.

Rulemaking, ARM-204, FAA, 800 Independence Avenue, SW., Washington, DC 
20591; telephone (202) 267-9681; facsimile (202) 267-5075; or e-mail at

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant to section 10(a)(2) of the Federal 
Advisory Committee Act (Pub. L. 92-463; 5 U.S.C. app. III), notice is 
given of an ad hoc ARAC meeting to be held May 14, 2004, at the Federal 
Aviation Administration, 800 Independence Ave., Room 810, Washington, 
DC. The meeting/teleconference is being held to approve the Avionics 
Systems Harmonization Working Group (AVSHWG) report and draft 
associated advisory circular that addresses section 25.1322 pertaining 
to flight deck alerting systems. The TAE expected to vote on the AVSHWG 
report and associated draft advisory circular, but did not because of 
concerns associated with the lack of display color guidance contained 
in the draft advisory circular, at the February 2004 TAE meeting. At 
that time, however, TAE members agreed to accept the report and draft 
advisory circular but to hold the vote at a future date, after the 
AVSHWG addressed the concerns. This ad hoc TAE meeting is necessary 
because the AVSHWG report is directly linked to a safety enhancement 
recommended by the Commercial Aviation Safety Team (CAST).
    The agenda will include:
     Opening remarks.
     Avionics HWG Report and Draft Advisory Circular, 
AC 25.1322, and Approval.
    Attendance is open to the public, but will be limited to the 
availability of meeting room space and telephone lines. The public may 
participate by teleconference by contacting the person listed under the 
heading FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT after May 4. The public must 
make arrangements by May 7 to present oral statements at the meeting. 
Written statements may be presented to the committee at any time by 
providing 25 copies to the Assistant Executive Director for Transport 
Airplane and Engine issues or by providing copies at the meeting. 
Copies of the documents to be voted upon may be made available by 
contacting the person listed under the heading FOR FURTHER INFORMATION 
CONTACT.
    If you are in need of assistance or require a reasonable 
accommodation for the meeting or meeting documents, please contact the 
person listed under the heading FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT. Sign 
and oral interpretation, as well as a listening device, can be made 
available if requested 10 calendar days before the meeting.

    Issued in Washington, DC, on April 20, 2004.
Ida M. Klepper,
Acting Executive Director, Aviation Rulemaking Advisory Committee.
