The proposal seeks to expand the types of aircraft that can qualify as light-sport, including rotorcraft and powered-lift, and to increase the privileges of sport pilots, potentially allowing them to operate four-seat airplanes under certain limitations and receive endorsements for night flying. The FAA also outlines new performance-based airworthiness standards for these aircraft, focusing on safety enhancements and increased capabilities, and introduces noise certification requirements for aircraft not conforming to a type certificate. Furthermore, the rule addresses experimental aircraft, including codifying operating limitations for space support vehicle flights and revising rules for market surveys and operations over populated areas. Finally, it details changes to repairman certification and maintenance requirements for light-sport aircraft, emphasizing alignment with broader aviation standards. ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/colorado-pilots-association-cpa-newsletter-7262198/episodes/faa-mosaic-modernizing-special-airworthiness-certification-podcast/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/colorado-pilots-association-cpa-newsletter-7262198/faa-mosaic-modernizing-special-airworthiness-certification-podcast.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
