(2) The maximum allowable manifold 

pressure (for reciprocating engines); 

(3) The maximum allowable gas tem-

perature (for turbine engines); and 

(4) The maximum allowable cylinder 

head, oil, and liquid coolant tempera-
tures. 

(d) 

Fuel grade or designation. The min-

imum fuel grade (for reciprocating en-

powered airplanes of 6,000 pounds or 
less maximum weight, ambient tem-
perature limitations (including limita-
tions for winterization installations if 
applicable) must be established as the

propriate crewmember; and 

(c) The kinds of operation authorized 

under § 23.1525.

ited, must be established appropriate 
to the installed equipment.

§ 23.1527

Maximum operating altitude. 

(a) The maximum altitude up to 

which operation is allowed, as limited

tional or equipment characteristics, 
must be established. 

(b) A maximum operating altitude 

limitation of not more than 25,000 feet 
must be established for pressurized air-
planes unless compliance with 
§ 23.775(e) is shown. 

[Doc. No. 26269, 58 FR 42166, Aug. 6, 1993]
