Part 25 Airworthiness Standards apply to which category?

• A. Normal Category Airplanes.
• B. Light Sport Aircraft.
• C. Transport Category Airplanes.
• D. Experimental Category Aircraft.

Answer: (C)

Part 25 sets the airworthiness standards for transport-category airplanes, the large aircraft designed for carrying passengers or cargo in regular air service. These standards are stricter and address everything from structural integrity to redundancy and system reliability to ensure safety in commercial operations. Other categories use different rule sets: normal/utility/acrobatic airplanes are governed by Part 23, light sport aircraft follow a separate, more simplified regime, and the experimental category covers aircraft built for testing or non-commercial use under its own approvals. So, Part 25 applies to transport-category airplanes.
