a. The notification described in § 60.23(c)(2)
must include a complete description of the
planned modification, with a description of
the operational and engineering effect the
proposed modification will have on the oper-
ation of the FTD and the results that are ex-
pected with the modification incorporated.
b. Prior to using the modified FTD:
(1) All the applicable objective tests com-
pleted with the modification incorporated,
including any necessary updates to the
MQTG (e.g., accomplishment of FSTD Direc-
tives) must be acceptable to the NSPM; and
(2) The sponsor must provide the NSPM
with a statement signed by the MR that the
factors listed in § 60.15(b) are addressed by
the appropriate personnel as described in
that section.

a. The sponsor’s responsibility with respect
to § 60.25(a) is satisfied when the sponsor fair-
ly and accurately advises the user of the cur-
rent status of an FTD, including any miss-
ing, malfunctioning, or inoperative (MMI)
component(s).
b. It is the responsibility of the instructor,
check airman, or representative of the ad-
ministrator conducting training, testing, or
checking to exercise reasonable and prudent
judgment to determine if any MMI compo-
nent is necessary for the satisfactory com-
pletion of a specific maneuver, procedure, or
task.
c. If the 29th or 30th day of the 30-day pe-
riod described in § 60.25(b) is on a Saturday, a
Sunday, or a holiday, the FAA will extend
the deadline until the next business day.
d. In accordance with the authorization de-
scribed in § 60.25(b), the sponsor may develop
a discrepancy prioritizing system to accom-
plish repairs based on the level of impact on
the capability of the FTD. Repairs having a
larger impact on the FTD’s ability to pro-
vide the required training, evaluation, or
flight experience will have a higher priority
for repair or replacement.

If the sponsor provides a plan for how the
FTD will be maintained during its out-of-
service period (e.g., periodic exercise of me-
chanical, hydraulic, and electrical systems;
routine replacement of hydraulic fluid; con-
trol of the environmental factors in which
the FTD is to be maintained) there is a
greater likelihood that the NSPM will be
able to determine the amount of testing that
is required for requalification.
