SUMMARY: On April 1, 2024, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) published a final rule in the Federal Register to incorporate certain Airman Certification Standards and Practical Test Standards by reference into the certification requirements for pilots, flight instructors, flight engineers, aircraft dispatchers, and parachute riggers. In that final rule, the FAA incorrectly set forth certain regulatory text which, if not corrected, would remove certain content from the Code of Federal Regulations the FAA did not intend to remove. This correction remedies the error. DATES: Effective on May 31, 2024.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On April 1, 2024, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) published the final rule, Airman Certification Standards and Practical Test Standards for Airmen; Incorporation by Reference.[1] That final rule adopted several amendments to parts 61, 63, and 65 of Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) by incorporating by reference (IBR) the Airman Certification Standards (ACS) and Practical Test Standards (PTS). The ACS and PTS [2] serve as the testing standards for airman certificates and rating practical tests.

However, the FAA inadvertently set forth only the revisions to the introductory text of paragraph (a) and did not address the undesignated paragraph at the end of paragraph (a). The FAA is correcting this error by setting forth the entirety of paragraph (a) and designating the currently-undesignated paragraph at the end of paragraph (a) as paragraph (a)(3). Correction Effective May 31, 2024, in rule document 2024-06644 at 89 FR 22482 in the issue of April 1, 2024, on page 22520, in the third column, in amendatory instruction 16, paragraph a is corrected to read as follows: § 65.119 [Corrected] * * * * * (a) Present evidence satisfactory to the Administrator that the applicant has had at least 3 years of experience as a parachute rigger and has satisfactorily packed at least 100 parachutes of each of two types in common use, in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions— (1) While a certificated and appropriately rated senior parach…
