A-82-067
NTSB Safety Recommendation — Aviation
Recommendation text
TO THE FEDERAL AVIATION ADMINISTRATION: Amend 14 CFR 127.subpart H, to require that all rotorcraft manufactured after a specified date, regardless of the date of original type certificate, be equipped with one or more approved flight recorders that record data from which the information listed in table II [see greensheet] can be determined as a function of time. For newly type certificated rotorcraft, any dedicated parameter which may be necessary because of unique features of the specific configuration and type design should also be required. (Superseded by A-87-77 through -89)
In plain language (FlightFinder summary)
The FAA is asked to amend 14 CFR 127.subpart H to require that rotorcraft manufactured after a specified date be equipped with flight recorders that collect data from table II as a function of time, and that newly type-certificated rotorcraft also record any parameters needed for unique design features. This recommendation has been superseded.
This plain-language summary is written by FlightFinder to explain the recommendation above. It is not the official wording — the verbatim NTSB text is quoted above.
