§ 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.
