Maximum takeoff and landing weight is 19,500 lbs, except in rotorcraft-external load operations where the maximum rotorcraft-load combination weight is 22,050 pounds. The external load must be jettisonable so that the rotorcraft weight is not more than 19,500 pounds. NOTE 20. This Type Certificate (TC) has been designated "ABANDONED". A “Notice of Intent To Designate as Abandoned Certain Type Certificates Issued in the Restricted Category,” was published by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) in the Federal Register on August 8, 2003 (68 FR 47379). That Notice listed this TC. The FAA received no comments on the published Notice. The FAA has been unable to contact this TC holder. Hence, the FAA has determined that this TC holder is not complying with its Continued Operational Safety (COS) responsibilities. Therefore, no additional aircraft will be added to this TC and no additional original airworthiness certificates will be issued based on this TC. The effectiveness of this TC is limited to those aircraft that received original airworthiness certification prior to the incorporation of this note (Date of Incorporation, January 24, 2005). Subsequently, if the TC holder is located and assumes their COS responsibilities, the restriction(s) imposed by this note may be lifted. .....END.....
