Major changes or alterations: After making a major change per § 21.93 or major alteration per § 1.1 to the aircraft:(a)Notify the responsible Flight Standards Office or designee prior to operation of the aircraft. This notice enables the FAA to determine if operating limitations require amendment to reduce exposure of the public to risk due to the major change. Note: Multiple notifications are not necessary if changing configurations and the operator has previously notified the FAA of the change and demonstrated and recorded compliance with § 91.319(b)(1) and (2).(b)Demonstrate compliance with § 91.319(b)(1) and (2) prior to conducting any other operations. Compliance with § 91.319(b)(1) and (2) must be completed under day visual meteorological conditions and over an area described by § 91.305.(c)Record compliance with § 91.319(b)(1) and (2) in the maintenance records with the following, or a similarly worded, statement: “I certify that the prescribed flight test has been completed and the aircraft is controllable throughout its normal range of speeds and throughout all maneuvers to be executed, has no hazardous characteristics or design features, and is safe for operation.” Notify the FAA certification office responsible or designee to update the FAA Registry of any changes to the engine or propeller model by contacting an FAA certification office or designee.
