14 CFR Part 145 Repair Stations

14 CFR Part 145 Repair Station Certification

Exciting news from the FAA Flight Standards Service! Starting January 24, 2024, they’re enhancing the application processing for certifications, especially for air carrier, air operator, repair stations, and air agency certificates, including management specifications as per Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR).

These improvements aim to streamline your certification experience, speeding up processing times and reducing wait times. Let’s work together to make this journey more efficient! Please see FAA Notice 8900.687 for further information.

The following are the new phases required to apply and obtain 14 CFR Part 145 Repair Station Certification:

1. Preapplication Statement of Intent (PASI), FAA Form 8400-6.
--1. The PASI will be used by the Manager, Flight Standards Division or designee to evaluate the complexity of the proposed operation. This allows the establishment of the certification team to be based on the complexity of the certification. A Certification Project Manager (CPM) will be designated as the principal spokesperson for the FAA during certification.
--2. An applicant should conduct a thorough review of the appropriate regulations and advisory material to provide guidance for personnel, facility, equipment, and documentation requirements. As a result of this review, the applicant must address, in FAA Form 8400-6, Preapplication Statement of Intent (PASI), how these requirements will be met.

Submittal of the PASI by the applicant shows intent to initiate the certification process.

2. Preapplication Meeting. The preapplication meeting should be held in the district office. This will allow the applicant to become familiar with the assigned FAA personnel.

3. Application for Repair Station Certificate and/or Rating, FAA Form 8310-3. During the preapplication meeting the applicant should be instructed on how to complete the application.

4. Formal Application Attachments. During the preapplication meeting requirements for the application attachments should be discussed. This discussion should include the following:

1. Manual. The applicant should be encouraged to use Advisory Circular 145-9, which provides information and guidance material for all repair station certificate holders or applicants under Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 145 to develop and evaluate a repair station manual (RSM) and quality control manual (QCM). The material presented in this AC describes an acceptable means, but not the only means, to develop a manual and comply with the referenced regulations. The manual should allow the user to understand its content without further explanation and must not contradict any regulatory requirements.

It is the applicant's responsibility to develop manuals and procedures that ensure safe operating practices and compliance with the rules. The team can offer suggestions for improvement but must not "write" the material.

2. Documentation stating the applicant has met the hazardous materials training requirements of 14 CFR 145.53(c) or (d), as applicable.

The following are some of the services Aviation Support offers to the aviation community during the Part 145 repair station certification process:
  • Representation to the FAA from the initial application to certification completion.

Aviation Certifications Support

14 CFR Part 135  Air Carriers and 14 CFR Part 145 Repair Stations certification process consist of stages that are called phase system.  There are 5 distinct phases and each phase has multiple items that must be successfully completed prior to continuing into the next phase of the process.

A Part 135 commuter or charter applicant will not be certificated until the FAA is confident that the prospective certificate holder understand the regulatory requirements and is able to remain in compliance with 14 CFR Part 135 and any other relevant parts.

FAA and Aviation Required Manuals

We all know that manuals are essential part of any operations, no matter Part 91, 121, 133, 135, 145, 147 or other parts, you must have the required manuals.  Aircraft, Air Carriers, Air Agencies, and Repair Stations Manuals must be customized for the size and the complexity of the organization, with expansion and growth of the operation in mind.

It is very important for each manual to be easy to follow and understand, hence the necessity for customization.  We are intimately familiar with the manuals creation and their regulatory compliance requirements.

Our Work is Guaranteed

We stand behind our work and guarantee everything we do. Our guarantee for manual development is 100% meeting the requirements of each manuals, and providing any necessary corrections or revisions to get the manual approved or accepted, whichever is required by the FAA.
