§ 87.307   Cooperative use of facilities.

   (a) The Commission will license only one flight test land station per
   airport, except as provided in paragraph (d) of this section.

   (b) Flight test land stations located at an airport are required to
   provide service without discrimination, on a cooperative maintenance
   basis, to anyone eligible for a flight test station license.

   (c) When the licensee of a flight test land station intends to conduct
   flight tests at an area served by another flight test land station,
   which may result in interference, the licensees must coordinate their
   schedules in advance. If no agreement is reached, the Commission will
   determine the time division upon request by either licensee.

   (d) Applicants for an additional flight test land station at an airport
   where such a station is already authorized may be required to submit a
   factual showing to include the following:

   (1) Reasons why shared use of the currently licensed flight test land
   station is not possible; and

   (2) Results of coordination with the current licensee of the flight
   test station at the airport demonstrating that an additional station
   can be accommodated without significant degradation of the reliability
   of existing facilities.
