noise levels of the airplane are no
greater than the Stage 4 noise limit
prescribed in section B36.5(d) of appendix B of this part. If an applicant chose
to voluntarily certificate an airplane
to Stage 4 prior to January 2006, then

than 121,254 pounds (55,000 kg), type
certification applications on or after
December 31, 2020. If application is
made on or after December 31, 2020, it

must be shown that the noise levels of
the airplane are no greater than the

Section 36.105 Flight Manual Statement of
Chapter 4 equivalency.
For each airplane that meets the requirements for Stage 4 certification,
the Airplane Flight Manual or operations manual must include the following statement:  - The following noise
levels comply with part 36, Appendix B,
Stage 4 maximum noise level requirements and were obtained by analysis of
approved data from noise tests conducted under the provisions of part 36,
Amendment 36 (insert part 36 amendment to which the airplane was certificated). The noise measurement and
evaluation procedures used to obtain
these noise levels are considered by the
FAA to be equivalent to the Chapter 4
noise level required by the International Civil Aviation Organization
(ICAO) in Annex 16, Volume I, Appendix 2, Amendment 7, effective March 21,
2002. - .
