A criminal investigation conducted by the Office of Inspector General (OIG) revealed that between October 10, 1995 and December 31, 1998, employees of St. George Aviation (SGA) issued numerous fraudulent A&P mechanic certificates. The FAA has a reasonable basis to question whether certificates holders tested by SGA, which was criminally prosecuted for conducting fraudulent examinations, possess the qualifications to hold their certificates.
The FAA believes it must reexamine the competency of these airmen to ensure safety. Accordingly, all airmen who received a certificate from SGA between October 10, 1995 and December 31, 1998 must be reexamined for their certificate(s), unless an Inspector Authorization has been obtained since the issuance of the certificate(s).
