Course Fees Course fees are being updated based upon actual Engineering
Designee training budget The FAA has been subsidizing Engineering Designee training,
this will no longer be the case This means all courses will see some sort of increase in tuition New fees will make the Engineering Designee program solvent All monies collected from training course fees will be used for
engineering designee program Technical training will have a flat fee
4Federal Aviation Administration
Policy Memorandum AIR100-17-160-PM02
Revises the recurrent training requirements contained in FAAOrder 8100.8D paragraphs 803g and 201b
Changes the technical training requirement to an annualrequirement for DERs, ODA UMs, DER advisors and OMTmembers
General Session training requirements will remain unchangedfor DERs
General Session training requirements for DER Advisors beingchanged to every 2 years to align with the DER requirement
5Federal Aviation Administration
New Training Program Engineering Designees will be able to access and complete
required training at any time during the calendar year No longer dependent upon FAA development schedule Technical courses will be release individually as they are
available Technical training course curriculum will include required
courses and electives Required courses will be any courses selected by the FAA to be completed by all
designees within a particular discipline Elective courses will be within the designees discipline Designees will select a minimum number of elective courses
6Federal Aviation Administration
New Training Program (cont.) Access to the technical training will be based on a flat annual
fee Once paid designees will have access to the entire training library for the duration
of the calendar year Designees will then be able to register for and complete their required training by
the end of the calendar year as required

Stump the Regulator
Presented to: 2017 Engineering Recurrent Seminar
Stump the Regulator
Open Q&A session with everyone from FAAHeadquarters on stage
We reserve the right to tap into local FAAknowledge
Any question relating to delegation of anykind is fair game
Prize to those who manage to stump usNote: not liking our answer is not stumping us
2Federal Aviation Administration
Sample questions
Question: As a DER I last took the general session training in
Sept of 2015. My renewal is in Aug of 2017. Can Ibe renewed or do I have to take the training before?
Answer: Yes, you can. The training requirement is once
every 2 calendar years, which means you have untilDec 31st of 2017 to take the training in this scenario.
3Federal Aviation Administration
Sample questions
Question: Can a Repair Specification be created for minor
repairs? Answer:
No, Repair Specification approvals are for majorrepairs ONLY. Minor repairs only requireacceptable data not approved data and therefore no8110-3 or 8100-9 is required.
Ref 8110.37E and 14CFR 43
4Federal Aviation Administration
Sample questions
Question: I see there is something called a vintage DER Do I
have to have that before I can work on VintageAirplanes?
Answer: No, a vintage DER is a DER who did not meet all the
qualifications of a DER but who has demonstratedexpertise in a certain type of vintage aircraft.

Whats planned for in Rev F of Order 8110.37
8110.37F is not out yet, but is projected to beout for comment in spring of 2017
Here are some of the changes planned Remember nothing is final or required until the order
is published
4Federal Aviation Administration
Whats planned for in 8110.37F No more DER Candidates
anyone who fit the previous description will now bea DER with authority limited to RecommendApproval only
A note will be added to address the removalof Administrative and Management DERs Management function will now be a special authority
similar to Repair Specification Added a section on rescinding an 8110-3
after its been issued
5Federal Aviation Administration
Whats planned for in 8110.37F
Adding a section on repair of TSO products Cannot just repair a part that was produced under a
TSOA to the TSO Must address the certification basis of the product
upon which the repaired part will be installed on

7Federal Aviation Administration
14 CFR Part 23 rewrite
The entire part 23 has been rewritten Final rule was out in December 2016 It becomes effective on August 30th 2017 The philosophy is to have the WHAT we
want to happen in the rule (e.g. keepoccupants from severe injury during acrash) and put the HOW into Method OfCompliance (MOC) documents
8Federal Aviation Administration
14 CFR Part 23 rewrite The rule and the MOC documents will be
used together to show compliance Initially the new form (Rule and MOC
documents) will look very similar to thecurrent 14 CFR Part 23 at amendment 62because that was the starting point for theASTM documents
As time goes by changes to the ASTMMOCs and other accepted MOC documentswill result in a more streamlined processfor applicants
9Federal Aviation Administration
14 CFR Part 23 rewrite
How does this affect DERs? Actually very little impact If you currently have a delegation for part 23 you
may, when delegated, find compliance to the newpart 23
The compliance finding will be to the newperformance based regulation (all new numberingsystem!)
IF your delegation is limited by regulation numberthen youll need to coordinate with your advisor toreword the limitation to remove the number
10Federal Aviation Administration
14 CFR Part 23 rewrite
The DER will list the new regulation in block 9applicable requirements.
The DER will also be required to list the MOC inblock 7 the list of data block
A memo from AIR 160 will be forthcoming withinstructions on how to document new part 23findings on the 8110-3/8100-9 form
11Federal Aviation Administration
14 CFR Part 23 rewrite
If you will be finding compliance to the newpart 23, youll most likely need to subscribeto ASTM to get access to the MOCs.$75/year.

DER: Roles and Responsibilities
Presented to: 2017 Engineering Recurrent Seminar
Roles and Responsibilities
This is a refresher of some information presented in the initial DER training
Well remind you of: Use of DER Numbers Proper Use of Form 8110-3 DERs and Conformity Certification Plans
2Federal Aviation Administration
Use of DER Numbers There are limited instances where it is appropriate for
DERs to use their DER identification number. DERs have used their DER numbers inappropriately. We DO NOT permit DERs to use their DER
identification number when signing: Company or personal reports Drawings Service documents Letters
DERs signature on these types of documents does not constitute FAA approval.
3Federal Aviation Administration
Use of DER Numbers
DERs may use their DER identification numbers in five places: FAA Form 8110-3
DERs find compliance to airworthiness standards.
FAA Form 8100-1 DERs may be authorized to disposition items found to be unsatisfactory during the
conformity inspection process.
FAA Form 8120-10 DERs may be authorized to initiate a request for conformity.
Repair Specifications DERs with a special delegation are authorized to approve repair specifications
Certification Plans DERs are encouraged to review the applicants certification plan prior to review and
acceptance by the FAA.
4Federal Aviation Administration
Questions?
5Federal Aviation Administration
Proper Use of Form 8110-3
Even though it is referred to as a data approval, except for major repairs or alterations, the Form 8110-3 signifies only that the data complies with the airworthiness standard
In general, Form 8110-3 is not an FAA approval to produce parts or otherwise use the data
Form 8110-3 signifies that the DER has verified compliance on behalf of the FAA, or has reviewed the data and recommends that the FAA concur with this recommendation
6Federal Aviation Administration
Proper Use of Form 8110-3
A DER authorized to approve technical data may decline to approve any or all portions of the data. DER submits Form 8110-3 to FAA as Recommend Approval
for FAA to review and approve. The DER must specify reasons for not approving the data.
For major repairs or major alterations Approval of the engineering design data is required before the
repair or alteration may be accomplished. Form 8110-3 serves as:
Finding of compliance Approval to accomplish the repair or alteration
7Federal Aviation Administration
Proper Use of Form 8110-3
Form 8110-3 is used to document a finding of compliance with airworthiness standards.
Form 8110-3 is NOT used to document a DERs participation in or review of any other part of a certification project, such as: Certification plans Compliance checklists Conformity plans Project schedules Proposed certification basis
8Federal Aviation Administration
Questions?
9Federal Aviation Administration
DERs and Conformity
Conformity is verification that aircraft and parts were manufactured according to the approved engineering drawings.
Form 8100-1, Conformity Inspection Record, is used to document conformity inspections during type, production, and airworthiness certification programs. Lists all discrepancies and nonconformities identified during a
conformity inspection of a part, installation, or entire product. Records corrective actions taken to resolve discrepancies and
nonconformities.
10Federal Aviation Administration
DERs and Conformity
Items identified on the Conformity Inspection Record as unsatisfactory are referred to as UNSATs, and must be cleared before the part, installation, or product can be issued an approval or certificate
A DER may be authorized to participate in the conformity process when corrective action to resolve any UNSATs involves the engineering design
All inspections conducted by an ASI or designee to determine conformity to an approved type design before an airworthiness certificate is issued must be recorded on FAA Form 8100-1
11Federal Aviation Administration
DERs and Conformity
DERs authorized to disposition UNSATs on a Form 8100-1 must be identified by the ACO requesting the inspection
DERs are specified by name and DER identification number on the Request for Conformity, Form 8120-10
12Federal Aviation Administration
DERs and Conformity
An authorized DER can determine, from an engineering standpoint, if the nonconformance is acceptable, if the part must be reworked, or if it must be scrapped. If the discrepancy allows the part, installation, or product to
comply with the airworthiness standard, the DER may approve a drawing revision to clear the UNSAT
Form 8110-3 only approves the drawing revision, and does not reference Form 8100-1
DERs entry on Form 8100-1 to clear the UNSAT should reference the new Form 8110-3
13Federal Aviation Administration
DERs and Conformity
DERs authorized to clear unsatisfactory conditions/nonconformities will enter the nonconformity in block 9, and describe the corrective action in block 13
When corrective action is completed, the DER will: Line through and initial the UNSAT in block 12 Sign the corrective action in block 13 with his/her DER
identification number
14Federal Aviation Administration
Request for Conformity
The Project ACO may designate a Management DER to initiate this request on their behalf
The DER completes a Form 8120-10, Request for Conformity (RFC)
The completed RFC is sent to the MIDO to request the inspection, whether by a MIDO inspector or by one of their designees, a DMIR or DAR-F
15Federal Aviation Administration
Request for Conformity
Instructions for completing the RFC are found as a separate instruction sheet attached to the printed version of the form, or as the first two pages of the electronic version of the form
DERs initiating the RFC on behalf of the ACO should record their name and DER identification number on the line identified for the FAA project manager
The completed RFC must be reviewed and signed by the FAA project engineer
16Federal Aviation Administration
Questions?
17Federal Aviation Administration
Certification Plans
We encourage DERs to review and coordinate on certification documents submitted to the FAA, such as certification plans
DERs may use their DER number and title on the certification plan cover sheet to indicate that they reviewed the documents
A DERs signature on a certification plan does not constitute FAA approval

Next Steps for Implementation
Realignment will be the first visible step of a phased implementation of the functional organization
AIR plans on realigning the organization in 2017 to begin to institutionalize the process improvements that are currently in progress.
Realignment changes management structure of AIRs existing local offices (ACOs, MIDOs, etc.) to align with AIRs functional divisions.
During realignment AIRs existing industry POCs will be retained to ensure seamless relationship management and to facilitate contact with the appropriate AIR employee.
AIR will continue to brief industry on implementation status and to solicit feedback.
As an outcome of realignment, AIRs directorate structure will cease to exist.
6Federal Aviation Administration
Evolution of FAA/Industry roles and responsibilities Goals:
Provide ability to better manage workload and be more responsive
Define involvement based on compliance risk Maximize applicants capability to show compliance Develop an applicant base fully capable and
competent in showing compliance so that the FAA can focus its resources on risk based oversight
Expand FAA recognition of applicant showing only (ASO) for compliance
7Federal Aviation Administration
Evolution of FAA/Industry roles and responsibilities Strategic Objectives:
Support an empowered FAA workforce who embrace risk based oversight for applicants that demonstrate a compliance culture.
Utilize ASO policy memo on targeted certification activities
Build/Enhance a systems approach to certification within the company
8Federal Aviation Administration
Applicant Showing Only (ASO) without an FAA finding of compliance Recognition of Applicant Showing without FAA involvement is
available, and is specifically promoted through Streamlined PMA and through Low Risk policy memo
Benefits to applicant Resources/logistics/schedule Most logical examples: Part conformity, Test witness
Benefits to DER/UM Experienced as compliance show-ers
Benefits to FAA Not as clear or quantifiable, but Focus designee resources/oversight on higher risk Possibly less designee oversight Recognized confidence in applicant capability for future
Potential costs Applicant - Correction of noncompliance FAA - Oversight of showings

Recognition and Use of Applicant Showings
Policy memo AIR100-15-150-PM16, issued 9/30/15, Guidance for Recognition and Use of Applicant Showings on Standard Certification Projects Allows ACO to determine LOPI based on defined risk criteria
using a risk based decision making (RBDM) tool For low risk areas of standard projects the project team can
rely on applicant showing Decision made case by case, project by project and is subject
to additional criteria
11Federal Aviation Administration
Recognition and Use of Applicant Showings ASO additional criteria
Successful past projects including projects of comparable complexity, and
Same compliance methodology as used before, and Either the same person(s) is making the applicant
showing, or an auditable documented company process is used to develop the specific substantiating data and,
The applicant provides a signed written statement of compliance for each regulation that applicant showing was authorized

Summary FAA Transformation is responsive to:
Congressional Direction (FAA Modernization and Reform Act of 2012) Industry requests for more efficient certification processes
Implementation of FAA initiatives that support the transformation have already begun: ODA Scorecard Risk Based Level of Project Involvement Tools (RBRTa/RBRTo) Certification Process Improvement (CPI) Guide Revision
Next step is to continue to implement ASO for low-risk activities

DERs and International Policy, Contd
ICAO places responsibility for an aircrafts
airworthiness with the State of Registry N-registered aircraft are FAAs responsibility Non-N registered aircraft are the responsibility of their SoR
even if they are U.S. SoD products DERs act only on behalf of the FAA and can only provide FAA
approvals as authorized by the FAA
Following countries require notification prior to designee activity: Israel, Malaysia, New Zealand, Russia, & Taiwan All non-bilateral agreement countries
14Federal Aviation Administration
DERs and International Policy, Contd Supporting a U.S. company in FV requests
Your experience as a DER is a benefit even when not officially acting as a DER
Project Familiarization Meetings Know the differences between the foreign
requirements and the U.S. requirements U.S. regulations are not always the more stringent
standard Be proactive in identifying differences and means for
showing compliance
A few FCAAs set certification basis on date of application to FCAA (thus not to the FAA)
15Federal Aviation Administration
DERs and International Policy, Contd Project Planning & Management
Help your company develop a good relationship with the FCAA by:
Submitting your application as early as possible Many CAAs have even more limited resources than the
FAA Do not expect success if unrealistic schedules are asked of
CAA Discussing problems and issues openly and immediately
with your ACO project manager
Avoid supplying unnecessary data Some data is not allowed to be shared Ref. the applicable IP and/or Order 8110.52
16Federal Aviation Administration
DERs and International Policy, Contd Project Planning & Management
Stated again, keep your ACO involved in the
process
Report to ACO when meetings with the FCAA seem to become training sessions
Raise issues with the ACO to avoid problems on follow-on projects
e.g., type validation principles not being followed Note guidance within the applicable IP
These efforts support our internal requirements for our Bilateral Relationship Management (BRM) process
17Federal Aviation Administration
DER Dos and Donts When Working on Foreign Activities
DO Read the bilateral agreement specifically the IPA (e.g., scopes
of IPA vary greatly) Recognize that bilateral agreements are government-to
government agreements, not applicant to authority Be well prepared at meetings with the CAA Work through your ACO; keep advisor involved Submit 8110-3s and data to FAA Contact your ACO if you feel pressured by a CAA Keep your advisor aware of all international activities
DONT Work directly with FCAA unless instructed by ACO Provide 8110-3s or data directly to FCAA for validation projects Put your DER number on FCAA forms

Minor Mods and PMA Policy Statement PS-AIR-21-1601
Signed on Oct. 6th, 2016 Rev. D of the Order clarified the definition of a
Modification Article as new to the product via a major or minor change
Historic precedence has allowed PMAs for mod articles outside the use of a STC (this is NOT new)
Onus of utilizing this guidance is on the applicant NOT to be used to subvert a STC project Will not be reliant on any comparative analysis but rather a
general analysis only Will NOT be applicable for most modification articles Supplemental ICAs will almost always be required

FAA Order 8110.4C Section 2-6(k) Data Submitted for Approval
(2) FAA personnel may use the applicants or certificate holders data for reference or evaluation of any subsequent applicants submitted data if the information is used solely for that purpose.
(3) Provides procedural guidance on the use of a previous applicants data as a means of compliance for a subsequent applicant (assumes applicant has the data)
Must show evidence it was approved by the FAA Must show previous approved data is applicable Provides sufficient substantiation and descriptive data of its own
modification Has sufficient engineering data for COS support or multiple STC
Situation
Federal Aviation Administration Flammability by Trace 16
What Is Compliance By Trace A means for an applicant to satisfy the 21.21(b)
requirement to submit type design, test reports and computations by showing traceability to previously FAA approved data
An applicant initiated action Applicant provides sufficient data/analysis to establish traceability
Show that the approved design holders parts complied with the appropriate flammability requirements for the product on which they were installed
Applicable aspects of the material, design, use, orientation, and certification basis align between the holders and applicants articles
Federal Aviation Administration Flammability by Trace 17
How Does It Work Applicant submits for STC or ASTC design approval Applicant & FAA develop compliance checklist Applicant provides line item evidence of previously
submitted and FAA approved (TC holder) flammability compliance data
List of items showing applicability (found in PS)
Applicant submits other required compliance data FAA finds compliance based on submitted and trace
data
Federal Aviation Administration Flammability by Trace 18
Importance of Evidence Compliance by Trace is not a waiver of any
airworthiness requirement Applicant must provide evidence of FAA
approval to support request for compliance by trace
Evidence must be specific enough to minimize or eliminate the need for FAA to access previous compliance data for verification of finding
Policy details list of required items
Federal Aviation Administration Flammability by Trace 19
21.20 Compliance Statement
If an applicant shows sufficient evidence of traceability to previously FAA approved data,
the responsibility for submission of the necessary data has been satisfied, and
Traceability to previously FAA approved data would be the documented line item means of
compliance as required by 21.20(a)

Destroyed Aircraft Aircraft owners, aircraft registration certificate holders and
repairers have been building aircraft from spare parts and attaching an ID plate of a different aircraft, classified as destroyed by the NTSB or the FAA, to them
The spare parts used in building these aircraft could be from military surplus or salvaged from other destroyed aircraft. Rebuilding of destroyed aircraft poses two issues that the FAA is very concerned of: violation of the regulations and safety of the aircraft
Currently, there is no guidance for FAA employees and the public in how to define an aircraft as destroyed, who can make the determination and how to resolve the dispute of the determination
Federal Aviation Administration Destroyed Aircraft 22
Applicable regulations 47.41 Duration and return of Certificate (a) Each Certificate of Aircraft Registration, AC Form 8050-3, issued by
the FAA under this subpart is effective, unless registration has ended by
reason of having been revoked, canceled, expired, or the ownership is transferred, until the date upon which one of the following events occurs:
(1) . . . . . . (2) The aircraft is totally destroyed or scrapped
45.13 Identification data . . . . . (2)(e) No person may install an identification plate removed in accordance
with paragraph (d)(2) of this section on any aircraft, aircraft engine, propeller, propeller blade, or propeller hub other than the one from which it was removed
Federal Aviation Administration Destroyed Aircraft 23
Challenge and Solution Challenge: 47.41 does not define the term Totally Destroyed nor who has the authority
to determine that an aircraft is destroyed Solution - an FAA-wide policy via order / advisory circular: Any body having monetary or safety interest in the aircraft can declare an
aircraft destroyed, but anyone else can dispute it Interested party can submit a repair scheme to ACO to show the aircraft is
repairable If ACO approves the repair, the aircraft is not destroyed To repair an aircraft, at least one of its primary structures must be repairable.
Replacing all of an aircraft structure is not a repair but a replacement of the
aircraft - 45.13 prohibits this action
DER will help Applicant and ACO in developing and approving the repair scheme
In summary: the condition of the aircraft itself determines whether it is repairable or destroyed
Federal Aviation Administration Destroyed Aircraft 24
Current status
A draft order and an advisory circular is completed and in circulation for FAA internal review

Repairs and Alterations Repair Specification Management DERs
2Federal Aviation Administration
Repairs and Alterations
Some Issues: DERs being asked to approve data for minor repairs Confusion over where the original 8110-3 is
supposed to go Insufficient data being used to approve the major
repair (e.g. the thumb approach) Use of prescribed 8110-3 notes (still seeing the
is not an installation approval
3Federal Aviation Administration
Repair Specification
Repair Specifications provide an alternative to the major repair technical data as well as the methods, techniques and/or practices contained in the current manufacturers manuals, service bulletins, or ICA
Approval as an RS is required for multiple-use major repairs that do not come from the DAH
They are used only for major repairs
4Federal Aviation Administration
RS DER Role
Manage as a project (cert plan, compliance plan)
Account for all disciplines Account for maintenance requirements
(ICA) when affected or no impact statement
Meet the 8110.37 policy requirements for an RS
5Federal Aviation Administration
RS DER Role
Not used for part production unless part consumed in repair
Not used for process spec approval except for as used in the course of the major repair
6Federal Aviation Administration
Repair Specification
Some of the issues weve seen: Not being used for major repairs Not containing sufficient data
Doesnt define the starting state with enough detail Doesnt contain sufficient instructions to accomplish repair
Approving the RS with a 8110-3 FAA not realizing that a DER with RS approval can
approve (unless specifically limited) RS utilizing data from other DERs
7Federal Aviation Administration
Management DERs
Do manage a project for the ACO May issue conformity requests when
delegated Act as a liaison between applicant and ACO Dont approve certification plans with a
8110-3
8Federal Aviation Administration
Management DER (during a project) Use a cert plan & keep it updated, Coordinate necessary changes with ACO Resolve issues (changes in MoC, designees,
suppliers, test details) Refer to the compliance listing part of it as the
method that compliance was shown (ref 21.20(a)/21.97)
Ensure applicant understands requirement to make a certifying statement and that its not based on DER findings
9Federal Aviation Administration
http:21.20(a)/21.97
Management DER (outside of a project) Make sure you are representing the FAA
position when project planning with applicant
Dont oversell your authority or capability When you present yourself as a
