 Production basis None.  Prior to original airworthiness certification of each aircraft, FAA personnel must  
  perform an airworthiness inspection determining condition for safe operation and  
  determine the applicant has conducted a satisfactory flight test.  See NOTE 4 for data on  
  Service Bulletins and ADs. 
 
 Equipment: The basic required equipment as prescribed for the special purpose operation and as  
  necessary for safe operation must be installed in each helicopter. 
 
NOTE 1. Current weight and balance report including list of  equipment included in certificated empty weight, and  
 loading instructions when necessary, must be in each helicopter at the time of original airworthiness  
 certification and at all times thereafter.

NOTE 5. Maintenance will be accomplished in acco rdance to the S-58 Maintenance Manual SA4045-15. 
 
 Component overhaul intervals shall be in accordance with "Sikorsky Aircraft Engineering Recommended  
 and Customer Approved Component Overhaul Intervals and Replacement Times," Parts I and II, dated 5  
 September 1956. 
 
NOTE 6. 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.
