The FAA's summary their words, unchanged
These special conditions are issued for the Bombardier Aerospace Model BD-100-1A10 airplane. This airplane as modified by Learjet Inc. (Subsidiary of Bombardier Aerospace) will have novel or unusual design features associated with side-facing single-occupant seats. The applicable airworthiness regulations do not contain adequate or appropriate safety standards for these design features. These special conditions contain the additional safety standards that the Administrator considers necessary to establish a level of safety equivalent to that established by the existing airworthiness standards.
