Section 121.470

14 CFR Ch. I (1-1-19 Edition)

(c) Notwithstanding paragraph (b) of
this section, a certificate holder conducting domestic, flag, or supplemental operations may apply the
flightcrew member flight time and
duty limitations and rest requirements
of part 117 of this chapter to flight attendants for all operations conducted
under this part provided that - 
(1) The certificate holder establishes
written procedures that - 
(i) Apply to all flight attendants used
in the certificate holder-s operation;
(ii) Include the flightcrew member
requirements contained in part 117, as
appropriate to the operation being conducted, except that rest facilities on
board the aircraft are not required;
(iii) Include provisions to add one
flight attendant to the minimum flight
attendant
complement
for
each
flightcrew member who is in excess of
the minimum number required in the
aircraft type certificate data sheet and
who is assigned to the aircraft under
the provisions of part 117, as applicable, of this part;
(iv) Are approved by the Administrator and are described or referenced
in the certificate holder-s operations
specifications; and
(2) Whenever the Administrator finds
that revisions are necessary for the
continued adequacy of the written procedures that are required by paragraph
(c)(1) of this section and that had been
granted final approval, the certificate
holder must, after notification by the
Administrator, make any changes in
the procedures that are found necessary by the Administrator. Within 30
days after the certificate holder receives such notice, it may file a petition to reconsider the notice with the
responsible Flight Standards office.
The filing of a petition to reconsider
stays the notice, pending decision by
the Administrator. However, if the Administrator finds that an emergency
requires immediate action in the interest of safety, the Administrator may,
upon a statement of the reasons, require a change effective without stay.
