Petition for Exemption

    Docket No.: FAA-2023-0754.
    Petitioner: Global Aviation Technologies.
    Section(s) of 14 CFR Affected: Sec. Sec.  23.807(d)(1)(i), 
23.807(e)(1)(2), and 23.812.
    Description of Relief Sought: The petitioner requests relief from 
Sec.  23.807(d)(1)(i), which is a commuter category airplane safety 
requirement, that requires an airplane with a total passenger seating 
capacity of 15 or fewer to have an emergency exit on each side of the 
cabin (as defined in Sec.  23.807(b)) in addition to the passenger 
entry door.
    The petitioner also requests relief from Sec.  23.807(e)(1) and (2) 
which are commuter category airplane safety requirements, that require 
an airplane's ditching emergency exits to be above the waterline on 
each side or have a readily accessible overhead hatch.
    The petitioner also requests relief from Sec.  23.812, which 
contains the safety requirements for commuter category airplanes for 
emergency lighting.
    The requested relief is for the Textron Model 390 airplane, Type 
Certificate A00010WI, which was certified as normal category. The 
petitioner's project would increase the gross weight of the airplane 
which would necessitate compliance with the requirements for commuter 
category airplanes. The petitioner is not increasing the airplane's 
passenger capacity.
