Correction
In proposed rule document 07-4884 beginning on page 59600 in the
issue of Monday, October 22, 2007, make the following correction:
1. On page 59670, in Table A3A, entry 2.b. is corrected as follows:

Tasks in this table are subject to evaluation if appropriate for
the airplane simulated as indicated in the SOQ Configuration List
or the level of simulator qualification involved. Items not
installed or not functional on the simulator and, therefore, not
appearing on the SOQ Configuration List, are not required to be
listed as exceptions on the SOQ.
