The FAA's summary their words, unchanged

This special condition is being issued for the Slingsby T67-M260 airplane. The airplane will have a novel and unusual design feature when compared to the state of technology envisaged in the airworthiness standards of 14 CFR part 23 of the Federal Aviation Regulations (FAR). This novel and unusual design feature is the use of composite materials for primary flight structure, for which the regulations do not contain adequate or appropriate airworthiness standards. This final special condition contains the additional safety standards that the Administrator considers necessary to establish a level of safety equivalent to that provided by the airworthiness standards of part 23.
