Petition for Exemption

    Docket No.: FAA-2012-0972.
    Petitioner: Boeing Commercial Airplane Company.
    Section of 14 CFR Affected: Sec.  25.841(a)(2) and (a)(3) at 
Amendment 87.
    Description of Relief Sought. The petitioner requests relief from 
cabin decompression requirements following an uncontained engine 
failure so the Model 787-9 airplanes would be able to operate above 
40,000 ft altitude, where they are most efficient, thereby reducing 
fuel burn and producing lower emissions.
