Do check RAC part 9 and answer this

Aircraft Type Certificate

•Log into www.faa.gov• In “Top Requests” hit in “Type Certificate

Datasheets”•Pick one TCDS and present it within the

course•Determine the main items within

(performance, specifications)

Supplemental Type Certificate (STC)

A supplemental type certificate (STC) is a type certificate (TC) issued when an applicant has received FAA approval to modify an aircraft from its original design. The STC,approves not only the modification but also how that modification affects the original design

STC EXAMPLES

Major AlterationThe FAA defines a Major Alteration as an alteration not listed in the aircraft, aircraft engine, or propeller specifications—

(1) That might appreciably affect weight, balance, structural strength, performance, powerplant operation, flight characteristics, or other qualities affecting airworthiness; or

(2) That is not done according to accepted practices or cannot be done by elementary operations.

What is a Minor / Major Alteration

– Advisory Circular AC 120-

77

Airworthiness Two conditions must be met before an aircraft can be considered “airworthy”:

1) The aircraft must conform to its type certificate (TC):Components installed are consistent with Drawings Specifications Other data from TC – STC and Field Approved alterations

Airworthiness

2) The aircraft must be in condition for safe operation; this refers to the condition of the aircraft relative to wear and deterioration.

AIRWORTHY MEANS AN AIRCRAFT MEETS ITS TYPE DESIGN AND IS IN A CONDITION FOR SAFE OPERATION

Airworthiness DirectiveAirworthiness Directives (ADs) are legally enforceable rules issued by the Aeronautical Entity to correct an unsafe condition in a product (aircraft, aircraft engine, propeller, or appliance )Responsibilities  ( Type Certificate owner, aircraft owner/operator)Applicability and Compliance Content & Format Guidelines Incorporation by Reference Issuance and Publication Types of Airworthiness DirectivesAlternative Method of Compliance

Airworthiness Certificate An airworthiness certificate is an document which grants authorization to operate an aircraft in flight. (Given by Local Aeronautical Entity) Can be special or Standard Can be revoked

Advisory Circular

•

Advisory Circulars are informational documents produced by the Federal Aviation Administration to inform and guide institutions, operations, and individuals within the aviation industry, as well as the general public. Advisory Circulars are intended to be informative in nature and not regulatory; however, many times they describe actions or advice that the FAA expects to be implemented or followed .
