Abstract: All responses to this collection of information are required to obtain or retain benefits per 14 CFR Part 21. Any identity may initiate a certification. This information is used to (1) collect the name of the party, corporation, or organization to whom the Type Certificate, Amended Type Certificate, Production Certificate, Supplemental Type Certificate, or Amended Supplemental Type Certificate will be issued. This is necessary because the same name will appear on the certificate exactly as it is entered in this form. Also, to obtain the signature of the certifying official which must be the holder or the person duly authorized to sign for the holder, company, or corporation. FAA Airworthiness safety inspectors, designated inspectors, engineers, and designated engineering representatives review the required data submittals to determine whether the aviation products and /or articles, or their manufacturing facilities, comply with the applicable regulatory requirements, and that the products and articles have no unsafe features. Those products and articles, and their facilities that do comply with the minimum regulatory requirements, are issued an appropriate approval or certificate. A probable unsafe condition could exist for the owner /operator of the product or article, and /or the public, if the certification procedures for products and articles required by Title 14 CFR Part 21 were not followed. The collection of the information referenced herein is based on the applicants need, not a set time or frequency. Information collected is required as needed, to be used by the Aircraft Certification Office Branch in the geographical area of the applicant in order to initiate the certification project and gather resources to work on the particular certification project.
