AIRWORTHINESS CERTIFICATION

 Unlike design and production approval

airworthiness certification is approval of an
individual aircraft
 A standard airworthiness certificate means
that an aircraft :
 Conforms to an approved type design
 Is in “condition for safe operation”

PPT by Erlana MT. - DGCA2020

 AIRWORTHINESS CERTIFICATION
(CONTINUED)

 Each civil aircraft must have an airworthiness

certificate before flight
 An aircraft will need an airworthiness
certificate when it is :
 New - ready for operation
 Not yet completed or certified, but must be flown
(flight tested)
 Damaged, but must be flown
 Brought in from another country

 Standard certificates are issued to aircraft with type

certificates in these categories :
 Normal
 Utility
 Acrobatic
 Commuter
 Transport
 Balloon
