The CE-700 is certified under which FAR Part?

• A. FAR Part 25
• B. FAR Part 23
• C. FAR Part 27
• D. FAR Part 29

Answer: (A)

FAR Part 25 governs the certification of transport-category airplanes, which are large fixed-wing aircraft designed for commercial passenger or cargo service. The CE-700 falls into this category, so it is certified under Part 25. This part covers the higher-performance requirements, structural integrity, safety systems, and reliability standards expected for larger airplanes. The other parts apply to different aircraft types: Part 23 covers small, normal-category airplanes; Part 27 and Part 29 cover helicopters (rotorcraft, with Part 27 for normal and Part 29 for transport). Since the CE-700 is not a helicopter or a small airplane, those parts aren’t applicable.
