Petitions for Exemption

    Docket No.: FAA-2005-23030.
    Petitioner: Czech Aircraft Works, S.R.O.
    Section of 14 CFR Affected: 14 CFR 21.190.
    Description of Relief Sought: Petitioner seeks an exemption 
permitting Czech Aircraft Works, S.R.O. to be issued a special 
airworthiness certificate in the light-sport category for its Mermaid 
aircraft. The petitioner requires this exemption because the Mermaid 
aircraft is an amphibious aircraft equipped with landing gear that can 
be retracted and extended while in flight. The FAA also seeks specific 
comments on the operation of this aircraft by sport pilots and the 
ability of such aircraft to withstand improper use of the landing gear, 
such as landing on water with the landing gear in the ``down'' 
position.
