Title: Fuel Tank Safety Compliance Extension (Final Rule) and Aging Airplane Program Update (Notice) 
Abstract: This action extends the compliance dates for operators to comply with special maintenance program requirements for transport airplane fuel tank systems. This extension is from December 6, 2004 to December 30, 2007. This action is necessary to allow affected operators enough time, after receipt of fuel tank systems maintenance programs from manufacturers, to incorporate necessary revisions into their maintenance programs. In addition, this action will tell the public about the findings of the FAA's review of our Aging Airplane Program and the resulting rulemaking projects. This rulemaking was upgraded from nonsignificant.
