Code of Federal Regulations - Title 14

14 CFR Ch. I (1–1–14 Edition)

§ 1.1

of not over 5 minutes for takeoff oper-
ation.

Rated takeoff power, with respect to

reciprocating, turbopropeller, and tur-
boshaft engine type certification,
means the approved brake horsepower
that is developed statically under
standard sea level conditions, within
the engine operating limitations estab-
lished under part 33, and limited in use
to periods of not over 5 minutes for
takeoff operation.

Rated takeoff thrust, with respect to

turbojet engine type certification,
means the approved jet thrust that is
developed statically under standard sea
level conditions, without fluid injec-
tion and without the burning of fuel in
a separate combustion chamber, within
the engine operating limitations estab-
lished under part 33 of this chapter,
and limited in use to periods of not
over 5 minutes for takeoff operation.

Rated 30-minute OEI power, with re-

spect to rotorcraft turbine engines,
means the approved brake horsepower
developed under static conditions at
specified altitudes and temperatures
within the operating limitations estab-
lished for the engine under part 33 of
this chapter, and limited in use to one
period of use no longer than 30 minutes
after the failure or shutdown of one en-
gine of a multiengine rotorcraft.

Rated 2

⁄

-minute OEI power, with re-

⁄

minutes each after the

failure or shutdown of one engine of a
multiengine rotorcraft.

Rating means a statement that, as a

part of a certificate, sets forth special
conditions, privileges, or limitations.

Reference landing speed means the

speed of the airplane, in a specified
landing configuration, at the point
where it descends through the 50 foot
height in the determination of the
landing distance.

Reporting point means a geographical

location in relation to which the posi-
tion of an aircraft is reported.

Restricted area. A restricted area is

airspace designated under Part 73 with-

in which the flight of aircraft, while
not wholly prohibited, is subject to re-
striction.

Rocket means an aircraft propelled by

ejected expanding gases generated in
the engine from self-contained propel-
lants and not dependent on the intake
of outside substances. It includes any
part which becomes separated during
the operation.

Rotorcraft means a heavier-than-air

aircraft that depends principally for its
support in flight on the lift generated
by one or more rotors.

Rotorcraft-load combination means the

combination of a rotorcraft and an ex-
ternal-load, including the external-load
attaching means. Rotorcraft-load com-
binations are designated as Class A,
Class B, Class C, and Class D, as fol-
lows:

(1)

Class A rotorcraft-load combination

means one in which the external load
cannot move freely, cannot be jetti-
soned, and does not extend below the
landing gear.

(2)

Class B rotorcraft-load combination

means one in which the external load is
jettisonable and is lifted free of land or
water during the rotorcraft operation.

(3)

Class C rotorcraft-load combination

means one in which the external load is
jettisonable and remains in contact
with land or water during the rotor-
craft operation.

(4)

Class D rotorcraft-load combination

means one in which the external-load
is other than a Class A, B, or C and has
been specifically approved by the Ad-
ministrator for that operation.

Route segment is a portion of a route

bounded on each end by a fix or naviga-
tion aid (NAVAID).

Sea level engine means a reciprocating

aircraft engine having a rated takeoff
power that is producible only at sea
level.

Second in command means a pilot who

is designated to be second in command
of an aircraft during flight time.

Show, unless the context otherwise

requires, means to show to the satis-
faction of the Administrator.

Small aircraft means aircraft of 12,500

pounds or less, maximum certificated
takeoff weight.

Special VFR conditions mean meteoro-

logical conditions that are less than
those required for basic VFR flight in
