## Abstract

This final rule requires improved flightdeck security and operational and procedures changes to prevent unauthorized access to the flightdeck on passenger-carrying aircraft and some cargo aircraft operated by foreign carriers under the provisions of part 129. It is being adopted to further enhance air carrier security in response to the heightened threat to civil aviation in the United States. This final rule applies the same flightdeck security enhancements to foreign air carriers as apply to U.S. air carriers.
