Title: Medium Flocking Bird Test at Climb Condition 
Abstract:

This rulemaking would add an additional medium flocking bird test to existing requirements, due 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.
