14 CFR Parts 65 and 91
Technical Corrections
AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration, DOT.
ACTION: Final rule; technical amendments.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This action makes minor corrections to two final rules. The
rules were published in the Federal Register on August 9, 1979 and
August 18, 1989, respectively. This action corrects the paragraph
reference which describes the requisite qualifications to obtain a
repairman certificate. This action also corrects the appendix
references which describe requirements for altimeter system and
altitude reporting equipment tests and inspections. The intent of this
action is to ensure that the regulations are clear and accurate.
EFFECTIVE DATES: Effective on February 20, 2007.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On August 9, 1979, the Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA) published in the Federal Register (44 FR 46778) a
final rule that amended 14 CFR 65.101 by designating the unnumbered
paragraph as paragraph (a) and redesignating paragraphs (a) through (f)
as paragraphs (a)(1) through (a)(6), respectively. However, the
reference in paragraph (a)(6) to paragraph (c) was inadvertently not
changed to reflect the redesignated numbering. This document makes the
appropriate amendatory change to Sec. 65.101(a)(6) to replace the
incorrect reference (paragraph (c)) with the correct reference (
paragraph (a)(3)).
On August 18, 1989, the FAA published in the Federal Register (54
FR 34284) a final rule that included revisions to part 91, subpart E.
One of the revisions was to redesignate Sec. 91.171 (Altimeter system
and altitude reporting equipment tests and inspections), as Sec.
91.411. In making this change, the appendix references in paragraphs
(a)(1) and (a)(2) were inadvertently reversed. That is, in paragraph
(a)(1) we referenced appendix E, and in paragraph (a)(2), we referenced
appendices E and F. However, the correct references are appendices E
and F for paragraph (a)(1) and appendix E for paragraph (a)(2). This
action revises Sec. 91.411 to include the correct appendix references.
Technical Amendment
This technical amendment will change the paragraph reference in
Sec. 65.101(a)(6) from paragraph (c) to paragraph (a)(3). And, it will
revise Sec. 91.411 to reference appendices E and F in paragraph (a)(1)
and appendix E in paragraph (a)(2).
These corrections to parts 65 and 91 will not impose any additional
requirements on operators affected by these regulations.
