Abstract

This chapter describes the basic requirements governing the certificates of airworthiness—airworthiness certificates for the FAA. The certificate of airworthiness was issued by the national authorities for aircraft that conformed to a type design approved under a type certificate, and with the applicable national rules for operations and environmental protection. A certificate of airworthiness or restricted category certificate of airworthiness may not be appropriate for an individual aircraft or aircraft type when it is not practicable to comply with the normal continued airworthiness requirements and the aircraft is to a design standard that is demonstrated to be capable of safe flight under defined conditions. The Experimental certificates of airworthiness are issued for aircraft that are not type certificated and for type-certificated aircraft that embody non approved changes or likely to exceed the approved limitations.
