Introduction This report was prepared for the Aircraft Certification Office Leadership Team (ACOLT) and the Manufacturing Inspection Management Team (MIMT) to provide an overview of the completed certification activity within AIR over the past five years and to provide a snapshot of AIR's delegation resources. The report tracks activity related to the number of TCs, STCs, PMAs, and TSOAs issued. It also includes a listing of the number and type of ADs and SAIBs issued by each Directorate and provides information on the number of individual and organizational delegations. The data reported is based on a fiscal year basis.

Please note that this report reflects only those data reported to AIR-6D1 which have been posted on the FAA Regulatory and Guidance Library (RGL) database. ACO's and MIDO's aware of design approvals not included in RGL are requested to forward these documents to the email address below.
