Section 1.1

which a portion of the flight is conducted beyond a time threshold identified in part 121 or part 135 of this chapter that is determined using an approved one-engine-inoperative cruise
speed under standard atmospheric conditions in still air.
Extended over-water operation means - 
(1) With respect to aircraft other
than helicopters, an operation over
water at a horizontal distance of more
than 50 nautical miles from the nearest
shoreline; and
(2) With respect to helicopters, an operation over water at a horizontal distance of more than 50 nautical miles
from the nearest shoreline and more
than 50 nautical miles from an offshore heliport structure.
External load means a load that is
carried, or extends, outside of the aircraft fuselage.
External-load attaching means means
the structural components used to attach an external load to an aircraft, including external-load containers, the
backup structure at the attachment
points, and any quick-release device
used to jettison the external load.
Final approach fix (FAF) defines the
beginning of the final approach segment and the point where final segment descent may begin.
Final takeoff speed means the speed of
the airplane that exists at the end of
the takeoff path in the en route configuration with one engine inoperative.
Fireproof - 
(1) With respect to materials and
parts used to confine fire in a designated fire zone, means the capacity
to withstand at least as well as steel in
dimensions appropriate for the purpose
for which they are used, the heat produced when there is a severe fire of extended duration in that zone; and
(2) With respect to other materials
and parts, means the capacity to withstand the heat associated with fire at
least as well as steel in dimensions appropriate for the purpose for which
they are used.
Fire resistant - 
(1) With respect to sheet or structural members means the capacity to
withstand the heat associated with fire
at least as well as aluminum alloy in
dimensions appropriate for the purpose
for which they are used; and

(2) With respect to fluid-carrying
lines, fluid system parts, wiring, air
ducts, fittings, and powerplant controls, means the capacity to perform
the intended functions under the heat
and other conditions likely to occur
when there is a fire at the place concerned.
Flame resistant means not susceptible
to combustion to the point of propagating a flame, beyond safe limits,
after the ignition source is removed.
Flammable, with respect to a fluid or
gas, means susceptible to igniting readily or to exploding.
Flap extended speed means the highest
speed permissible with wing flaps in a
prescribed extended position.
Flash resistant means not susceptible
to burning violently when ignited.
Flightcrew member means a pilot,
flight engineer, or flight navigator assigned to duty in an aircraft during
flight time.
Flight level means a level of constant
atmospheric pressure related to a reference datum of 29.92 inches of mercury. Each is stated in three digits
that represent hundreds of feet. For example, flight level 250 represents a barometric altimeter indication of 25,000
feet; flight level 255, an indication of
25,500 feet.
Flight plan means specified information, relating to the intended flight of
an aircraft, that is filed orally or in
writing with air traffic control.
Flight
simulation
training
device
(FSTD) means a full flight simulator or
a flight training device.
Flight time means:
(1) Pilot time that commences when
an aircraft moves under its own power
for the purpose of flight and ends when
the aircraft comes to rest after landing; or
(2) For a glider without self-launch
capability, pilot time that commences
when the glider is towed for the purpose of flight and ends when the glider
comes to rest after landing.
Flight training device (FTD) means a
replica of aircraft instruments, equipment, panels, and controls in an open
flight deck area or an enclosed aircraft
cockpit replica. It includes the equipment and computer programs necessary to represent aircraft (or set of
aircraft) operations in ground and
