These special conditions are issued for the Airbus Model A330- 200 and A330-300 airplanes. This airplane, as modified by Rosemount Aerospace, will have a novel or unusual design feature associated with lithium batteries. The applicable airworthiness regulations do not contain adequate or appropriate safety standards for this design feature. 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.
