This rule amends the airworthiness standards for transport category airplanes concerning material strength properties and material design values. It incorporates changes developed in cooperation with the Joint Aviation Authorities of Europe and the U.S. and European aviation industry through the Aviation Rulemaking Advisory Committee (ARAC). This action is necessary because differences between the current U.S. and European requirements impose unnecessary costs on airplane manufacturers. Issuing this amendment eliminates regulatory differences between the airworthiness standards of the U.S. and the
Joint Aviation Requirements of Europe, without affecting current
industry design practices.
DATES: Effective September 4, 2003.
