2120-AK83 201804 Unified Agenda of Federal Regulatory and Deregulatory Actions 2120 Federal Aviation Administration FAA 2100 Department of Transportation DOT Medium Flocking Bird Test at Climb Condition

This rulemaking would add an additional medium flocking bird test to existing requirements, in response to the January 15, 2009 US Airways Flight 1549 Hudson River ditching. The subsequent investigation revealed existing requirements do not adequately demonstrate engine core bird ingestion capability at climb condition. The intended effect of the proposed rule is to ensure that future engine designs will be robust against core bird ingestions at climb condition.
