§ 125.224 Collision avoidance system.
Effective January 1, 2005, any air-
plane you operate under this part 125
must be equipped and operated accord-
ing to the following table:
C
OLLISION
A
VOIDANCE
S
YSTEMS
If you operate any
. . .
Then you must operate that airplane
with:
(a) Turbine-powered
airplane of more
than 33,000
pounds maximum
certificated take-
off weight.
(1) An appropriate class of Mode S
transponder that meets Technical
Standard Order (TSO) C–112, or a
later version, and one of the fol-
lowing approved units:
(i) TCAS II that meets TSO C–119b
(version 7.0), or a later version.
(ii) TCAS II that meets TSO C–119a
(version 6.04A Enhanced) that was
installed in that airplane before May
1, 2003. If that TCAS II version
6.04A Enhanced no longer can be
repaired to TSO C–119a standards,
it must be replaced with a TCAS II
that meets TSO C–119b (version
7.0), or a later version.
(iii) A collision avoidance system equiv-
alent to TSO C–119b (version 7.0),
or a later version, capable of coordi-
nating with units that meet TSO C–
119a (version 6.04A Enhanced), or a
later version.
(b) Piston-powered
airplane of more
than 33,000
pounds maximum
certificated take-
off weight.
(1) TCAS I that meets TSO C–118, or
a later version, or
(2) A collision avoidance system equiv-
alent to TSO C–118, or a later
version, or
(1)(3) A collision avoidance system and
Mode S transponder that meet para-
graph (a)(1) of this section.

§ 125.225 Flight data recorders.
(a) Except as provided in paragraph
(d) of this section, after October 11,
1991, no person may operate a large air-
plane type certificated before October
1, 1969, for operations above 25,000 feet
altitude, nor a multiengine, turbine
powered airplane type certificated be-
fore October 1, 1969, unless it is
equipped with one or more approved
flight recorders that utilize a digital
method of recording and storing data
and a method of readily retrieving that
data from the storage medium. The fol-
lowing information must be able to be
determined within the ranges, accura-
cies, resolution, and recording inter-
vals specified in appendix D of this
part:
(1) Time;
(2) Altitude;
(3) Airspeed;
(4) Vertical acceleration;
(5) Heading;
(6) Time of each radio transmission
to or from air traffic control;
(7) Pitch attitude;
(8) Roll attitude;
(9) Longitudinal acceleration;
(10) Control column or pitch control
surface position; and
(11) Thrust of each engine.
(b) Except as provided in paragraph
(d) of this section, after October 11,
1991, no person may operate a large air-
plane type certificated after September
30, 1969, for operations above 25,000 feet
altitude, nor a multiengine, turbine
powered airplane type certificated
after September 30, 1969, unless it is
equipped with one or more approved
flight recorders that utilize a digital
method of recording and storing data
and a method of readily retrieving that
data from the storage medium. The fol-
lowing information must be able to be
determined within the ranges, accura-
cies, resolutions, and recording inter-
vals specified in appendix D of this
part:
(1) Time;
(2) Altitude;
(3) Airspeed;
(4) Vertical acceleration;
(5) Heading;
(6) Time of each radio transmission
either to or from air traffic control;
(7) Pitch attitude;
(8) Roll attitude;
(9) Longitudinal acceleration;
(10) Pitch trim position;
(11) Control column or pitch control
surface position;
