(3) False fire-warning during flight;
(4) An exhaust system that causes

damage during flight to the engine, ad-

(13) Brake system components that

result in loss of brake actuating force
when the aircraft is in motion on the
ground;

(14) Aircraft structure that requires

major repair;

(15) Cracks, permanent deformation,

or corrosion of aircraft structures, if
more than the maximum acceptable to
the manufacturer or the FAA; and

(16) Aircraft components or systems

that result in taking emergency ac-
tions during flight (except action to

(b) For the purpose of this section,

during flight means the period from the
moment the aircraft leaves the surface
of the earth on takeoff until it touches
down on landing.

by paragraph (a) of this section, each
program manager must report any
other failure, malfunction, or defect in
an aircraft that occurs or is detected at
any time if, in the manager’s opinion,
the failure, malfunction, or defect has
endangered or may endanger the safe
operation of the aircraft.

(d) Each program manager must send

each report required by this section, in
writing, covering each 24-hour period
beginning at 0900 hours local time of
each day and ending at 0900 hours local
time on the next day to the Flight
Standards office that issued the pro-
gram manager’s management specifica-

ing a 24-hour period must be mailed or
transmitted to that office within the
next 72 hours. However, a report that is
due on Saturday or Sunday may be
mailed or transmitted on the following
Monday and one that is due on a holi-

malfunction or defect (for example,
wear, crack, design deficiency, or per-
sonnel error).

(7) Other pertinent information nec-

essary for more complete identifica-
tion, determination of seriousness, or
corrective action.

(f) A program manager that is also

the holder of a type certificate (includ-
ing a supplemental type certificate), a
Parts Manufacturer Approval, or a
Technical Standard Order Authoriza-
tion, or that is the licensee of a type
certificate need not report a failure,
malfunction, or defect under this sec-
tion if the failure, malfunction, or de-
fect has been reported by it under § 21.3
of this chapter or under the accident
reporting provisions of part 830 of the
regulations of the National Transpor-
tation Safety Board.

(g) No person may withhold a report

required by this section even when not
