The FAA's summary their words, unchanged
These special conditions are issued for the Bombardier Inc. Model CL-600-2E25 Series Airplane. These airplanes will have a novel or unusual design feature associated with seats that include non- traditional, large, non-metallic panels that would affect survivability during a post-crash fire event. 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.
