Petition for Exemption

Docket No.: FAA-2024-1363.

Petitioner: Basler Turbo Conversions LLC.

Section(s) of 14 CFR Affected: §§ 25.1301 and 25.1322.

Description of Relief Sought: Basler Turbo Conversions LLC requests exemption from §§ 25.1301 and 25.1322 to allow the installation of its three Genesys Aerosystems Integrated Display Units (IDU-680) on Basler Modified DC-3 aircraft. The relief sought will permit the IDU-680 to be installed as currently designed with (1) use of an analog radar altimeter depiction on the Primary Flight Display, (2) depiction of obstacles in yellow in the Synthetic Vision System “Normal” mode regardless of their location in relation to the flight path, (3) use of threatening obstruction symbology with yellow obstructions outlined in red to distinguish them from threatening terrain hazards that progress from yellow to red, and (4) use of a green “X” to indicate that an external system data has been manually decluttered by the pilot but the system is functioning normally and available for selection.
