AC 21-2B Appendix 2 10/2/69 Page 17 Proposed Maintenance Guide. It is recommended that the proposed maintenance guide correspond to the instructions of the GENERAL DEFINITION OF "ROUTINE MAINTENANCE" INSPECTION of the Bureau Veritas, copies of which are available from any FAA Regional Office, Engineering and Manufacturing Branch (Aircraft Engineering Division (AED) in the Western Region).
Units of Measurement. Aircraft instruments must be graduated in terms of legal or accepted French units;
however, where other units are used in accordance with strongly established aeronautical practice, and if failure to comply with this practice would reduce aircraft safety, then such units may be accepted and must be used in the manuals. If illegal or unaccepted units are used, the manuals must contain conversion tables. The following chart outlines legal and acceptable units of measurement.
Legal Units Units Allowed in Aeronautics Measure Name Symbol Name Symbol Leng th Meter* Nautical Mile NM Area Square Meter* Volume Cubic Meter* Liter* Angles Degree* Mass Kilo* kg Time second, minute, hour mn h Frequency Hertz* (1 cycle per second) Speed Meter per second m/s Feet per minute ft/mr Kilometer per hour km/h Knots Kts Acceleration Meter per second square m/s2 Temperature Kelvin degree Centigrade Work Joule* Power Watt* Pressure (bar) Pressure Millibar mb * With decimal multiples and sub-multiples.

(2) General Technical Special Conditions. These special conditions would be required as a result of differences between the French regulations and the U.S. Federal Aviation Regulations.
(3) Specifi- Technical Special Conditions. These conditions would pertain to any possible unusual characteristics in the design, construction, or operation of the aircraft under consideration.
How to Get a French Type Certificate for Import. In the following procedures, any of the required documents and data which would normally be approved by the FAA for issuance of U.S. type certificates must also be FAA approved for issuance of French type certificates for import.
a. General.
(1) The French require that the application be submitted to the pertinent government agency. Insofar as the FAA 1s concerned, this means that the application must be submitted to the FAA regional office of the region in which the applicant is located, Attention: Chief, Engineering and Manufacturing Branch (AED) in the western Region), who will transmit the application to the S.G.A.C. (An example of a standard application form is reproduced under paragraph 6 of these special requirements.) A statement including the following information, and signed by the Chief of the Engineering and Manufacturing Branch ((AED) in the Western Region), should be provided the S.G.A.C. with the application:
(a) The FAR upon which the issuance of the U.S. type certificate is based;
(b) If applicable, a copy of the complete text of each special condition imposed by the FAA in connection with issuance of the type certificate; and
(c) If applicable, a copy of the complete text of each exemption which may have been granted.
(2) The manufacturer should provide the S.G.A.C. with all of the officially requested documents (reference paragraph 5).

The French type certificate for import, when issued, will be addressed directly to the manufacturer, with a copy to the regional office.
(2) The S.G.A.C. will accept statements, certifications, and 1asuances that are within the scope of FAR Part 21, Subpart J, provided that:
