  • Abandoned TCs and STCs

    Tribe,

    I received this email from [email protected]. I am not sure what this means to T-Crafts and specifically the BC12-D that I own and fly. Here is the email:

    ANTIQUE AIRCRAFT OWNERS URGED TO COMMENT ON FAA DRAFT ORDER
    Those who own and fly old, rare and discontinued aircraft are being urged to
    comment on a draft order http://www.faa.gov/aircraft/draft_do...TCsandSTCs.doc
    under consideration by the FAA that would determine how the agency handles
    what it calls "abandoned" and "orphaned" type certificates and supplementary
    type certificates. The agency's preamble makes the point that it needs to be
    in reliable contact with the custodians of TCs and STCs for all certified
    aircraft still flying and the proposed national policy is aimed at that.
    That naturally has the owners of historic airplanes nervous about their
    future flying and they're hoping everyone with an interest in the issue will
    comment by the deadline on Oct. 5.
