The word “group” is broadly used and doesn’t refer to one particular thing. For FA certification, Rick is correct. I don’t know which AC you’re referring to, but it sounds like you’re referring to aircraft group classifications as it relates to airport and runway certification.

And people are applying and still don’t know where the pilot bases will be? Wow - that takes a leap of faith at this point! I would hope the bases will be in relatively affordable locations.

It is based on wing span and tail height. Do you guys ever read the text of a NOTAM? For example, a taxiway will be closed to Group III or larger aircraft. Most times they also include the wingspan limits but not always and then you must know what Group number your aircraft is in.

Yeah, it’s weird they define group II transport category aircraft as “turbojet aircraft of more than 41,000 lbs. maximum takeoff weight” when there doesn’t seem to be any correlation or definition relating a “group II” and 41,000lbs. There are two 41,000lb delineations in the following link, wake category and weight category. But neither of them is called group II, see page 4/5: https://www.faa.gov/documentlibrary/...der_7360.1.pdf The only “group II” I can find is as discussed above (aircraft design group) which is wingspan and tail height. See page 14 here: https://www.faa.gov/documentLibrary/...ive-201612.pdf
Maybe this is indicative of why it’s taking them such a long time to get FAA approval
