installation of a crash-protected image recording system on all
turbine-powered, nonexperimental, nonrestricted-category aircraft

with a flight data recorder, and that are operating under 14 Code
of Federal Regulations Parts 135 and 121 or that are being operated
full-time or part-time for commercial or corporate purposes under
Part 91. (A-03-62)
Amend the current regulations for 14 Code of Federal
Regulations Parts 91, 135, and 121 operations to require all
turbine-powered, nonexperimental, nonrestrictedcategory aircraft
that have the capability of seating six or more passengers to be
equipped with an approved 2-hour cockpit voice recorder that is
operated continuously from the start of the use of the checklist
(before starting engines for the purpose of flight), to completion
of the final checklist at the termination of the flight.
