A bill to amend the Federal Aviation Act of 1958 to require the Secretary of Transportation to provide for a joint study of fire retardant or noncombustible materials for use in aircraft cabins and to require the issuance of minimum standards governing materials so used.

Requires the Secretary of Transportation to appoint an advisory committee composed of representatives of the Federal Aviation Administration, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, the Air Transport Association of America, the Air Line Pilots Association, the National Fire Protection Association, and the National Transportation Safety Board for the purpose of conducting a comprehensive study of practical fire-retardant or noncombustible materials for use in the interior of aircraft cabins designed for the carriage of passengers and available for use in insulating such aircraft cabins including binders. Requires the advisory committee to report to the Secretary, within one year after the date of enactment of this paragraph, the results of such study, together with such recommendations as it may deem appropriate."

Directs the Secretary of Transportation to prescribe minimum standards governing the use of materials which are flammable, combustible, or when ignited produce toxic or irritating products of combustion in the interior of aircraft cabins designed for the carriage of passengers and governing the use of such materials in insulating such aircraft cabins including binders.

Provides that initial standards issued under this Act shall become effective not later than the expiration of the two-year period beginning on the date of enactment of this Act.
