Title: Certification of Airports 
Abstract: This action proposes to revise the current airport certification regulation and to establish certification requirements for airports serving scheduled air carrier operations in aircraft with 10 to 30 seats. In addition, changes are proposed to address National Transportation Safety Board recommendations and petitions for exemptions and rulemaking. A section of an air carrier operation regulation also would be amended to conform with proposed changes to airport certification requirements. The FAA believes that these proposed revisions are necessary to ensure safety in air transportation and to provide a comparable level of safety at all certificated airports. This action is significant because of substantial public interest.
