DOT/FAA RIN: 2120-AL82 Publication ID: Fall 2022 
Title: ●Unmanned Aircraft Systems Operations Using Special Airworthiness 
Abstract:

This rulemaking would enable certain low altitude unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) operations, while ensuring the safety and efficiency of the United States airspace. It is the next step in incrementally integrating UAS into the national airspace system (NAS), providing for expanded safety, societal, and economic advantages and benefits. Using consensus-based standards, this rulemaking would establish a new section under title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations part 21 (14 CFR part 21) describing the regulatory process for issuing special airworthiness certificates for unmanned aircraft (weighing up to 1,320 pounds) as well as the acceptance of their associated elements.
