The FAA's summary their words, unchanged

These Special Conditions are issued to Beech Aircraft Corporation (Beech) to become a part of the type certification basis for the new single-engine, turbopropeller-powered, Beech Model 38P Series airplanes. These airplanes will have novel or unusual design features associated with a turbopropeller installation in a single-engine airplane for which the applicable airworthiness standards of Part 23 of the Federal Aviation Regulations (FAR) do not contain adequate or appropriate safety standards. These Special Conditions contain the additional safety standards which the Administrator of the FAA finds necessary to establish a level of safety equivalent to that provided in the regulations for single, reciprocating-engine-powered airplanes.
