Title: Requirements for Protection of Fuel Tanks From Flame Propagation Through Fuel Vent Lines | |
Abstract: This rulemaking would modify the airworthiness standards for transport category airplanes to require fuel tank designs that prevent a fuel tank explosion caused by flame propagation through the vent system from a post-crash ground fire or from lightning strikes. Preventing a fuel tank explosion following an accident provides additional time for the safe evacuation of passengers. | |
