Discussion

    Section 110 of the Aircraft Certification, Safety, and 
Accountability Act, Public Law 116-260 (the Act) requires the FAA to 
issue an order establishing an issue resolution process for certain 
type certification activities. Section 110 also requires the FAA to 
establish a process that provides certain persons with the right to 
appeal decisions, findings, and acts with respect to compliance with 
design requirements. This order would be issued to meet the 
requirements of section 110, and a draft may be examined in the docket, 
and at <a href="https://www.faa.gov/aircraft/draft/docs/">https://www.faa.gov/aircraft/draft/docs/</a>.
