For engines imported from Canada to be eligible for export under a U.S. Export Certificate of Airworthiness, the importing country must notify FAA that it is willing to accept them as products manufactured in Canada under Canadian Ministry of Transport certification. Production basis: None NOTE 1. Engines and igniters shall be rebuilt by Type Certificate holder or his authorized source only. NOTE 2. All 12NS-350CBA JATO installations basically shall be in accordance with the engineering criteria in Aerojet- Bristol-DeVore Report No. 981. Each new type installation shall be reviewed and concurred in by DeVore Aviation Service Corp. or its authorized representative and approved by the Federal Aviation Administration or by the Civil Aviation Authority of the country involved. NOTE 3. Maximum storage period shall be two years from shipping date stenciled on the unit. Temperature storage limits are -65°F (-53.9°C) minimum and 160°F (71.1°C) maximum. NOTE 4. 12NS-350CBA rocket engines may be carried on an aircraft ready for operation for a maximum of 1000 hours cumulative flying time or 24 months, whichever occurs first, in addition to the two year storage period. NOTE 5. The rocket engines may be fired prior to removal for pilot familiarization and checkout if desired. NOTE 6. The "Temperature of Propellant" is the temperature of the propellant mass. This temperature approximates the average of the temperatures to which the rocket engine has been exposed in the previous 24 hour period. NOTE 7. Thrust and impulse of this rocket engine increase slightly with increase in altitude. See 12NS-350 and 12NS- 350CBA Aircraft Rocket Engines Operation & Service Instructions, STM 164. NOTE 8. Type Certificate E12EA originally issued to Canadian Bristol Aerojet, Ltd., of Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada, was transferred to Aerojet-General Corporation on December 28, 1966. Engine of Serial Nos. 20001 through 21107 and 20007A through 21015A were manufactured in Canada under Canadian Department of Transport Engine Type Approval No. 7 Issue 1, dated October 9, 1964. Production of engines was under Canadian Department of Transport surveillance and not under an FAA Production Certificate. Canadian production has been terminated and no U.S. production is intended. This Type Certificate was reissued to Aerojet-General Corporation on the basis that Aerojet- General Corporation, by letter to the FAA dated May 23, 1967, assumed responsibility for conformity of the Canadian-built engines to type design and production standards. This Type Certificate was reissued to DeVore Aviation Service Corp., on August 31, 1971, and changed to DeVore Aviation Corporation August 11, 1978. .....END..... ``` ## ADs None name its models. ## STCs approved under this data sheet (1) - [STC SA4005NM](https://openairdocs.org/stc/SA4005NM): Precise Flight Inc.
