However, such equipment as required by CAR Part 43.30 for the particular operation authorized for NC aircraft must be installed. Also, any additional equipment necessary for the proper operation of the aircraft. The aircraft may incor- rorate such military equipment (except as was originally incorporated in the type for military or naval service. Additional equipment may be installed as can be substantiated on the basis that it presents no obvious hazard to safety. NOTE 1. Weight and Balance Report including list of equipment included in the certificated empty weight must be submitted for such aircraft. or Navy weight records in current condition may be submitted in lieu of an actual weight. Required equipment as defined under EQUIPMENT above. Additional items as may be reasonably considered removable and are so located or of such weight that their removal or addition could noticeably affect the weight and balance of the aircraft. built into the aircraft structure need not be listed. The equipment list must be prepared by the applicant for the approval of the and in such form that it can be attached to the Operating Limitations. NOTE 2. The following placards must be prominently displayed in the positions indicated: (a) In full view of all passengers: "This is a military type aircraft nd under the Civil Air Regulations shal! not he used for the carriag or passengers or cargo for compensation or hire. ' The placard and lettering shall be of a type which can be read easily from any seat In the cockpit in full view of the pilot: For the B-34 and PV-1: "All acrobatics prohibited." "Do not exceed 140 mph with flaps down." "Do not exceed 153 mph with landing gear down." "Avoid continuous operation between 2500 and 2650 rpm." For the PV-2: "All acrobatics prohibited." "Do not exceed 138 mph with flaps down." "Do not exceed 172 mph with landing gear down." "Avoid continuous operation between 2500 and 2650 rpm." The following statement must appear on the Operation Limitations: "This airplane must be operated at all times within the limitations set forth in Army Technical Order No. AN-01-55EA-1, AN-01-55EC-1 or AN-01-55ED-1 as applicable except for limitations specifically called out in Aircraft Specification AL-13 in which case the values given in the specification A copy of the pertinent Army Technical Orders and Aircraft Specification AL-13 must be carried during flight." In all cases it will be the responsibility of the applicant to secure a copy of The FAA does not have these documents If any repairs or modifications are made prior to or subsequent to NI certification, it is the responsibility of the owner to furnish sufficient evidence to a FAA representative to show that the modified airplane maintains the same degree of airworthiness as the original. The FAA can give no technical assistance on such matters since complete structural data for NI aircraft are not required by Part 9 and therefore are not available in the FAA. For certification for night flying the following must be accomplished: Replace the wing position lights with certificated units or satis- factorily modify the lights if pertinent. Type A-9 wing position lights (AN-3033-5 through -8) may be satisfactorily modified by painting the inside trosted portion of the cover black. (AN-3033-1 through -4) are satisfactory Replace the tail light with a certificated unit. If "Bright and Dim" conditions are provided for the position lights, either the resistors should be disconnected from the circuits and a single-pole, single-throw switch should be used to replace the two double-throw switches presently installed for wing-tip and tail lights, or the switches should be placarded to indicate that only the "bright condition" should be used. In either case the tail light and wing-tip lights should operate on one switch. The following Mandatory Army Technical Orders pertinent to models and serial numbers as indicated are listed for your information and must be complied with prior to certification. (The FAA does not have copies of these publications available for distribution. Also, FAA inspectors do not The applicable Technical Orders and compliance data are also listed in the airplane's "Historical Records," AAF Forms 60A, 60B and 61 accompanying the aixplane: No. & Date Title Serial Nos.
