  • 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

    The FAA will be issuing a required Introductory course whichwill include: Details on the changes to the technical training program Instructions on how to access and navigate DRS and Blackboard Details on required versus elective courses Instructions for the selection and completion of elective courses

    7Federal Aviation Administration

  • Recurrent Seminar General Session

    Recurrent General Session will now have a mandatorymorning session and an optional afternoon session

    Beginning in 2017 there will be an online option for theRecurrent General Session

    The fee will be the same between the face to face and onlineversions

    Online version will include the required morning session butwill not include the material covered in the optionalafternoon session (although the presentations from theafternoon will be made available)

    General Sessions will be offered in same locations but lessfrequently (next slide)

    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.

    Ref 8110.37E

  • 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

    6Federal Aviation Administration

  • Questions?

    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.

    Designee Management System (DMS)

    Presented to: 2017 Engineering Recurrent Seminar

  • What is DMS?

    DMS is a web based tool for the FAA to use in managing its designees

    Created in Response to a Government Accountability Office (GAO) audit of the FAA

    Replaces the individual systems that each line of business was using

    2Federal Aviation Administration

    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

    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

    9Federal Aviation Administration

  • Recognition and Use of Applicant Showings

    Streamlined PMA Order 8110.119 (11/30/12) Approve eligible non-safety significant articles in

    about 30 days with minimal use of ACO resources Applicant guidance is in the Modification and

    Replacement Parts Association (MARPA) Document 1100

  • 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

    12Federal Aviation Administration

  • 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

    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

  • 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
