Sep 24, 2026· Comment from General Aviation Manufacturers Association (GAMA)· FAA-2026-0430-0030

The General Aviation Manufacturers Association (GAMA) is an international trade association representing 140 of the world's leading manufacturers of airplanes, helicopters, engines, avionics, and components, as well as maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) centers. GAMA appreciates the opportunity to provide comments to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) on the Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) FAA-2026-0430, Transport Airplane and Propulsion Certification Modernization. GAMA applauds the FAA's intent not only to deregulate Part 25 and reduce repetitive SCs, exemptions, and ELOS findings, but also to harmonize with EASA's CS-25. Attached are comments developed by our membership in response to the NPRM.

Abstract

FAA proposes to amend various airworthiness regulations to modernize certain certification standards for transport category airplanes and propulsion systems. This proposal would reduce the number of exemptions, special conditions, and equivalent level of safety findings required during the certification process. This proposal would reduce certification costs and time to certify new and changed products for industry and FAA while maintaining or increasing the level of safety provided by current regulations. This action would address industry and National Transportation Safety Board recommendations while harmonizing FAA’s regulations with international standards.
