FAA Airworthiness Essentials Parts 21, 43 & 91 – 3 Days

Introduction

Within the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regulatory framework, there are three primary regulations that govern the airworthiness of an aircraft generally known as “The Big Three”, which are:

14 CFR Part 21 — Certification Procedures for Products and Parts
14 CFR Part 43 — Maintenance, Preventive Maintenance, Rebuilding, and Alterations
14 CFR Part 91 — General Operating and Flight Rules

Most of the other FAA airworthiness certification regulations link to one of these three regulations so having a good understanding of these primary airworthiness regulations is essential for personnel involved in managing, performing, or inspecting aircraft maintenance tasks.

This course provides an overview of the three regulations and the guidance material available for delegates to grasp a thorough understanding to help them maintain compliance.
