**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:**
**Background**
Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations, part 107, subpart D, prescribes the eligibility and operating requirements for civil sUA to operate over human beings in the United States. To be eligible for use, the sUA must meet the requirements of § 107.120(a) for Category 2 operations or § 107.130(a) for Category 3 operations. These sections require the sUA to be designed, produced or modified such that it will not cause injury to a human being above a specified severity limit, does not contain any exposed rotating parts that would lacerate human skin, and does not contain any safety defects. Section 107.155 requires that means of compliance with § 107.120(a) or § 107.130(a) be established and FAA-accepted. Section 107.160 requires an applicant to declare that sUA for Category 2 or Category 3 operations meet an FAA-accepted means of compliance.
**Means of Compliance Accepted**
This notification of availability serves as a formal acceptance by the FAA of ParaZero's “ParaZero Part 107 Operations Over People Means of Compliance,” version 1.5, as an acceptable means of compliance, but not the only means of compliance with §§ 107.120(a) and 107.130(a). Applicants may also propose alternative means of compliance for FAA review and possible acceptance.
**Revisions**
Revisions to ParaZero's “ParaZero Part 107 Operations Over People Means of Compliance,” version 1.5, will not be automatically accepted and will require further FAA acceptance for any revisions to be considered an accepted means of compliance. Issued in Kansas City, Missouri, on February 25, 2026.
