Petition for Exemption

    Docket No.: FAA-2009-0672.
    Petitioner: The Boeing Company.
    Section of 14 CFR Affected: Sections 25.1457(a)(6) and (d)(5); 
91.609(i)(1); 121.359(j)(1); 125.227(i); 129.24; 135.151(g)(1) and (2); 
and related footnotes in App E of part 91, App M of part 121, App E of 
part 125, and App F of part 135.
    Description of Relief Sought: The Boeing Company seeks relief on 
behalf of U.S. registered operators taking delivery of new Boeing Model 
737, 747, 767, and 777 airplanes manufactured between April 7, 2010 and 
April 7, 2011. The relief sought would enable operation of these 
airplanes for a specific time without (1) Datalink recording 
requirements, (2) increased sampling rates of certain flight data 
recorder parameters, and (3) cockpit voice recorder (CVR) independent 
power source required by the sections listed above. Additionally, the 
relief sought would enable operation of Boeing Model 777 airplanes 
without CVR independent power source. The relief sought would also 
enable Boeing to offer controller pilot datalink communications 
capability on these models for airplanes operated after April 7, 2010.
