SA00345BO 07/15/2024 Limitations and Conditions continued:
4. Installation of this NVIS system does not authorize the operator to use NVGs. If the type of operation requires an operational authorization, the operator must coordinate with the FAA or with the responsible aviation authority to obtain this authorization.
5. Once an airplane is modified with this STC, any future interior or exterior modification that adds or changes systems that emit or reflect light has the potential to adversely affect NVG compatibility and may require a reevaluation by the responsible FAA Aircraft Certification Office.
6. Compatibility of this design with previously approved modifications must be determined by the installer.
