Production Basis None. Before original airworthiness certification of each aircraft, an FAA representative must
perform a detailed inspection for workmanship, materials, conformity with the approved
technical data, and a check of the flight characteristics. In the event of an application for a
standard airworthiness certificate or, if an applicant intends to produce a new aircraft under
14 CFR 21.183(d), and the applicant is manufacturing, building, or assembling to another
persons type certificate, the applicant must provide written evidence of permission from the
type certificate holder. Conduct of such activity without written evidence of permission may be
a violation of 49 U.S.C. 44704(a)(3).
Equipment Approval for the installations of all items of equipment listed herein has been obtained by the
aircraft manufacturer.
