Petition for Exemption
Docket No.: FAA-2025-1005.
Petitioner: TransNorthern Aviation.
Section(s) of 14 CFR Affected: §§?135.99(c)(1)(iii), 135.99(c)(4)(i), 135.99(c)(4)(ii) and 61.159(c)(3).
Description of Relief Sought: TransNorthern Aviation requests relief from portions of the Second in Command Professional Development Program. This would allow the FAA POI to issue Operations Specification A062 without TransNorthern Aviation having to establish and maintain a data collection and analysis process that will enable them and the FAA to determine if the second-in-command professional development program is accomplishing its objectives. The assigned PIC would not need to have been fully qualified to serve as a pilot in command for the certificate holder for at least the previous 6 calendar months, nor be required to complete mentoring training, including techniques for reinforcing the highest standards of technical performance, airmanship and professionalism within the preceding 36 calendar months. Finally, the PIC would not be required to certify in the pilot's logbook that the second-in-command pilot time was accomplished under section 61.159(c).
