The FAA's summary their words, unchanged
These special conditions are being issued to become part of the type certification basis for the Piaggio Model P-180 series airplanes. These airplanes will have novel and unusual design features when compared to the state of technology envisaged in the airworthiness standards for normal, utility, acrobatic, and commuter category airplanes. These novel and unusual design features include the installation of electronic displays and the protection of them from indirect effects of lightning and high energy radiated electromagnetic fields (HERF) for which the applicable regulations do not contain adequate or appropriate airworthiness standards. These special conditions contain the additional safety standards which the Administrator considers necessary to establish a level of safety equivalent to that provided by the applicable airworthiness standards.
