Questions



Stump the Regulator

Presented to: 2018 Engineering Recurrent Seminar

Stump the Regulator

Open Q&A session with everyone from FAA Headquarters on stage

We reserve the right to tap into local FAA knowledge

Any question relating to delegation of any kind is fair game

Prize to those who manage to stump us Note: not liking our answer is not stumping us


Sample questions

Question: As a DER I last took the General Session training in Sept of 2016. My renewal is in Aug of 2018. Can I be renewed or do I have to take the training before?

Answer: Yes, you can. The General Session training requirement is once every 2 calendar years, which means you have until Dec 31st of 2018 to take the training in this scenario.


Sample questions

Question: Can a Repair Specification be created for minor repairs?

Answer: No, Repair Specification approvals are for major repairs ONLY. Minor repairs only require acceptable data, not approved data, and therefore no 8110-3 or 8100-9 is required.

Ref 8110.37F and 14CFR 43


Sample questions

Question: I see there is something called a vintage DER Do I have to have that before I can work on Vintage Airplanes?

Answer: No, a vintage DER is a DER who did not meet all the qualifications of a DER but who has demonstrated expertise in a certain type of vintage aircraft.

Ref 8110.37F


Questions before we begin?


Ok, then lets see if you can STUMP THE REGULATORS



New Policy


New Regulations/Policy of Note

8110.37F 14 CFR 23 AMOC Order 8110.103B PMA for minor modification articles Lithium Battery policy memo New DER landing page website


Recent Policies


Order 8110.37 Revision F 8100.37F was released in August of 2017 Here are some of the changes incorporated in Revision F


Whats in 8110.37F No more DER Candidates Anyone who would have been identified as a Candidate DER may now be appointed as a DER with authority limited to Recommend Approval

Existing Candidates may either be appointed or terminated

A note was added to require the removal of Administrative DERs

A new section on rescinding an 8110-3 after its been issued


Whats in 8110.37F

Added 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

Added instructions in Appendix B on how to document new part 23 findings on the 8110-3 form Now required to list the means of compliance accepted under 14 CFR 23.2010 in addition to the regulations


Questions?


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. keep occupants from severe injury during a crash) and put the HOW into Method Of Compliance (MOC) documents


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 the current 14 CFR Part 23 at amendment 62 because that was the starting point for the ASTM documents

As time goes by changes to the ASTM MOCs and other accepted MOC documents will result in a more streamlined process for applicants



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 new part 23

The compliance finding will be to the new performance based regulation (all new numbering system!)



The DER will list the new regulation in block 9 applicable requirements.

The DER will also be required to list the MOC in block 7 in the list of data block



If you will be finding compliance to the new part 23, youll most likely need to subscribe to ASTM to get access to the MOCs. $75/year.


Questions?


AMOC Order 8110.103B

The AMOC order has been rewritten. It allows for the FAA to delegate AMOC authority in certain cases

Still limited to company DERs and ODAs and only certain ADs.

Designee Management System (DMS)



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


What will DMS do? It will roll up Appointment Renewal Terminate as well as provide for the management of the delegation


Current Deployment Schedule

DMS is up and running for Manufacturing, Aeromedical and AFS Designees

DERs are next We will be working on the requirements document through this fiscal year (Oct)

DERs should not expect to have to do anything until early 2019.


DMS

When we do transfer your data over from our existing system we will need you to verify that the data we have is correct

We may do that before or after the transfer depending on what is easiest

DER: Roles and Responsibilities



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


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.


Use of DER Numbers

DERs may use their DER identification numbers in five places: FAA Form 8110-3 - Statement of Compliance with Airworthiness Standards DERs find compliance to airworthiness standards.

FAA Form 8100-1 - Conformity Inspection Record DERs may be authorized to disposition items found to be unsatisfactory during the conformity inspection process.

FAA Form 8120-10 - Request for Conformity 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.


Questions?


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



A DER authorized to approve technical data may decline to approve any or all portions of the data. The DER must NOT submit a 8110-3 Form (ref 8110.37F Chapter 3 paragraph 1(e) )

The DER must discuss the reasons for not approving the data with the project office.

For major repairs or major alterations Approval of the engineering design data is required before the repair or alteration may be returned to service.

Form 8110-3 serves as: Finding of compliance Approval to accomplish the repair or alteration



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


Questions?


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.


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


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


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


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

May also transmit this information to the inspector or DMIR/DAR-f to be recorded on the 8100-1

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


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


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


Questions?


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

Aircraft Certification Transformation



Introduction

Aircraft Certification Service (AIR) Transformation Responsive to

Congressional Direction (FAA Modernization and Reform Act of 2012)

Industry requests for more efficient certification processes

Discuss evolution of FAA/Industry roles and responsibilities Expectations are changing as we strive for efficiency


AIR Transformation is our holistic approach to becoming more efficient and effective


Refresh Certification Strategy AIRs future state model will streamline compliance activities and promotes early and iterative actions between industry partners and AIR.


Improve Our Organization The future state AIR organization is aligned by function (key capabilities of each Division below).


Next Steps for Implementation

Realignment was the first visible step of a phased implementation of the functional organization

AIR realigned the organization in July 2017 allowing us to institutionalize process improvements (currently in progress).

Realignment changed management structure of AIRs existing local offices (ACOs, MIDOs, etc.) to align with AIRs functional divisions. ACOs are currently part of the Compliance and Airworthiness Division, AIR-700.

Industry POCs have been retained to ensure seamless relationship management and to facilitate contact with the appropriate AIR employees.

AIR will continue to brief industry on implementation status and to solicit feedback.

As an outcome of realignment, AIRs Four-Directorate structure ceased to exist. Directorate standards functions now reside in the Policy and Innovation Division AIR-600


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


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 applicants organization


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: Risk Based Level of Project Involvement Tools (RBRTa/RBRTo) Certification Process Improvement (CPI) Guide Revision Recognition of ASO

Next step is to continue to refine the organization and promote early and iterative actions between industry partners and AIR

DERs and International Policy A DER can be used in international work: To make findings on behalf of the FAA for

U.S. State-of-Design (SoD) products U.S. State-of-Registry (SoR) aircraft

TCCA SoR is allowed under exception Other activities as authorized by the appointing ACO and per FAA policy e.g. technical assistance (witness a test for another civil aviation authority)

A DER can NOT be used: To make compliance determinations directly for a FCAA

In FAA Shadow Programs of FCAAs (typically)


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 SoReven if they are U.S. SoD products

DERs act only on behalf of the FAA and can only provide FAAapprovals as authorized by the FAA

Following countries require notificationprior to designee activity within their sovereign boarders: Israel, Malaysia, New Zealand, Russia, & Taiwan Also, all non-bilateral agreement countries


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)


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 to the FAA Many FCAAs have even more limited resources than us Do not expect success if unrealistic schedules are asked of the FAA and or the FCAA

Discussing problems and issues openly and immediately with your ACO project manager

Avoid supplying unnecessary data Some data is not allowed to be shared (i.e. Export Control or Sensitive Security Information (SSI))

Ref. the applicable IP and/or Order 8110.52B


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

Know your export control responsibilities

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


DER Dos and Donts When Working on Foreign Activities DO

Read Order 8110.52 and the applicable 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 FCAA Work through your ACO; keep advisor involved Submit 8110-3s and data to FAA Contact your ACO if you feel pressured by a FCAA 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

Testing associated risks Clarity and maturity of test procedures and test complexities Skills of applicant representatives and overall experience with conducting test(s)

Designees experience and familiarity with the test and facility/ test personnel

Equipment setup Additional considerations Acknowledge risks

Concurrence needed from all applicable designees and project managing office

17


Documentation Additional details outlined within the test plan

Witness provides record for inclusion in test report Reference FAA Order 8110.4, paragraph 2-6(d)(1)

Equipment and setup must enable witness to verify all requisite conditions are met and a proper evaluation can be performed

18


Considerations Time stamping Multiple cameras, viewing angles, zoom Resolution and field of view appropriate for tests

Special Lighting Environmental / weather conditions Loss of sensory perception Policies restricting video usage

19


Procedures and Records

Same basic process as witnessing on-site Conformity complete Unsatisfactory comments dispositioned Video setup adequate for proper witnessing

Video will not be retained in the project file The video is a tool to verify proper test execution Witness provides in documentation: equipment used, chronological description of tests and adjustment of equipment and adequacy of the video

Topics for Bonus Session

Presented to: 2018 DER Recurrent Seminar

Bonus Session

Repairs and Alterations Repair Specification Management DERs


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 New in 8110.37F

The DER must retain the original Form 8110-3 and send a copy to their managing office.

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


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


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


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


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


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


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

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 management DER are you doing what the FAA would otherwise do?
