scope:

Purpose of this notice. This notice supplements the procedures and requirements of Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Orders 8110.4, Type Certification, and 8110.37, Designated Engineering Representative Handbook. The alternatives are based on applying risk based resource targeting (RBRT) to new type, amended type, or supplemental type certification projects for domestic, non-organizational delegation applicants. In the case of RBRT, an amended Type Certification (ATC) project is one where there is a model designation change or a new model under an existing Type Certification (TC). At the present time, this is not intended to be applied to those major changes or amendments being accomplished under Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations, part 21.97 (14 CFR §21.97).
