The FAA's summary their words, unchanged
These special conditions are issued pursuant to § 21.16 and § 21.101 of the Federal Aviation Regulations (FAR) to Gates Learjet Corporation (Learjet) for the amended type certification of the Learjet Models 54, 55, and 56 series airplanes. These airplanes will have novel or unusual design features associated with the unusually high operating altitude (51,000 feet) for which the applicable airworthiness regulations do not contain adequate or appropriate safety standards. These special conditions are therefore necessary to establish a level of safety equivalent to that established in the regulations.
