gard to these items; 

(2) 

Use of safety belts, shoulder har-

nesses, and child restraint systems: 

Each 

passenger must be briefed on when, 
where and under what conditions it is 
necessary to have his or her safety belt 
and, if installed, his or her shoulder 
harness fastened about him or her, and 
if a child is being transported, the ap-
propriate use of child restraint sys-
tems, if available. This briefing must 
include a statement, as appropriate, 
that the regulations require passenger 
compliance with the lighted passenger 
information sign and/or crewmember 
instructions with regard to these 
items; 

(3) The placement of seat backs in an 

upright position before takeoff and 
landing; 

(4) Location and means for opening 

the passenger entry door and emer-
gency exits; 

(5) Location of survival equipment; 
(6) Ditching procedures and the use of 

flotation equipment required under 
§ 91.509 for a flight over water; 

(7) The normal and emergency use of 

oxygen installed in the aircraft; and 

(8) Location and operation of fire ex-

tinguishers. 

(b) Prior to each takeoff, the pilot in 

command of an aircraft carrying pas-
sengers on a program flight must en-
sure that each person who may need 
the assistance of another person to 
move expeditiously to an exit if an 
emergency occurs and that person’s at-
tendant, if any, has received a briefing 
as to the procedures to be followed if 
an evacuation occurs. This paragraph 
does not apply to a person who has 
been given a briefing before a previous 
leg of that flight in the same aircraft. 

(c) Prior to each takeoff, the pilot in 

command must advise the passengers 
of the name of the entity in oper-
ational control of the flight. 

(d) The oral briefings required by 

paragraphs (a), (b), and (c) of this sec-
tion must be given by the pilot in com-
mand or another crewmember. 

(e) The oral briefing required by 

paragraph (a) of this section may be de-
livered by means of an approved re-
cording playback device that is audible 
to each passenger under normal noise 
levels. 

(f) The oral briefing required by para-

graph (a) of this section must be sup-
plemented by printed cards that must 
be carried in the aircraft in locations 
convenient for the use of each pas-
senger. The cards must— 

(1) Be appropriate for the aircraft on 

which they are to be used; 

(2) Contain a diagram of, and method 

of operating, the emergency exits; and 

(3) Contain other instructions nec-

essary for the use of emergency equip-
ment on board the aircraft. 

§ 91.1037

Large transport category air-

planes: Turbine engine powered; 
Limitations; Destination and alter-
nate airports. 

(a) No program manager or any other 

person may permit a turbine engine 
powered large transport category air-
plane on a program flight to take off 
that airplane at a weight that (allow-
ing for normal consumption of fuel and 
oil in flight to the destination or alter-
nate airport) the weight of the airplane 
on arrival would exceed the landing 
weight in the Airplane Flight Manual 
for the elevation of the destination or 
alternate airport and the ambient tem-
perature expected at the time of land-
ing. 

(b) Except as provided in paragraph 

(c) of this section, no program manager 
or any other person may permit a tur-
bine engine powered large transport 
category airplane on a program flight 
to take off that airplane unless its 
weight on arrival, allowing for normal 
consumption of fuel and oil in flight (in 
accordance with the landing distance 
in the Airplane Flight Manual for the 
elevation of the destination airport and 
the wind conditions expected there at 
the time of landing), would allow a full 
stop landing at the intended destina-
tion airport within 60 percent of the ef-
fective length of each runway described 
below from a point 50 feet above the 
intersection of the obstruction clear-
ance plane and the runway. For the 
purpose of determining the allowable 
landing weight at the destination air-
port, the following is assumed: 

(1) The airplane is landed on the most 

favorable runway and in the most fa-
vorable direction, in still air.
