To require the Administrator of the Federal Aviation Administration to conduct a study to assess whether certain aircraft certified under part 23 of title 14, Code of Federal Regulations, may be used in operations conducted under part 121 of such title, and for other purposes.

This bill directs the Federal Aviation Administration to conduct a study within 180 days to determine if smaller aircraft, designed for 10 to 19 passengers, can be safely used for scheduled commercial flights. The investigation must examine how allowing these planes in commercial service would affect the economics for airlines serving small communities, review regulations in other countries, and gather input from manufacturers, rural communities, and safety experts. Once the study is finished, the FAA Administrator will submit a report detailing the findings to both the House and Senate committees.
