SUMMARY:
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is amending an error in its security related regulations affecting the design and operation of transport category airplanes. The paragraph that describes the incorporation by reference of a document containing ballistic resistance requirements contains an erroneous cross reference which was included in both the final rule and the notice of proposed rulemaking. This document corrects that error so that the reader is able to locate the correct information.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
The FAA published a final rule entitled "Security Related Considerations in the Design and Operation of Transport Category Airplanes" in the Federal Register on October 28, 2008 (73 FR 63867). The final rule amended security related regulations affecting the design and operation of transport category airplanes. The final rule, as published, contained an erroneous cross reference in § 25.795 that was carried over from the notice of proposed rulemaking (Notice No. 06-19, published in the Federal Register on January 5, 2007, 72 FR 630), which was also in error. The cross reference related to the incorporation by reference of National Institute of Justice (NIJ) Standard 0101.04, Ballistic Resistance of Personal Body Armor, June 2001, Revision A, to establish ballistic resistance as required by paragraph (b)(3) of 14 CFR 25.795. The correct reference is paragraph (a)(3).
List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 25
Aircraft, Aviation safety, Reporting and recordkeeping requirements.
