On each AMCS data entry screen, there is a Navigation bar at the top as well as Next Page and Previous Page buttons at the bottom. Use these buttons to navigate forward and backward while entering data into the application. Using the provided navigation buttons ensures no data is lost.
 

Date of Issue
The date of issue on an airman certificate must correspond to the date the current Administrator signs it. To be valid, it must also be consistent with our current certificate format.

Employment Verification
You should not use the date of issue as employment verification. A certified copy of your complete airmen certification records will verify the date you got your mechanic certificate and rating(s).

Request a Copy of Your Records
To request a copy of your airman records, download and send this form or send a signed, written request with your:

• full name (as it appears on the certificate/please print),
• your date of birth,
• place of birth, social security number,
• certificate number,
• class of certificate,
• street address, city, state, and
• zip code

Mail to:
FAA Airmen Certification Branch

Due to the need to generate detailed noise results over large areas, noise modeling is the only practical way to accurately and reliably determine geospatial noise effects in the surrounding community when analyzing proposals related to aviation noise.

The many challenges and limitations to using noise measurements for evaluating airport vicinity noise are summarized below:

• Non-aircraft sound can have a large influence on noise monitoring data, which can be difficult to separate from aircraft noise during data post-processing.
• Long-term (e.g., year-long) noise monitoring requires regular maintenance and calibration of the individual noise monitors on a continuous, year-round basis, which has considerable costs.
• To ensure the same accuracy and fidelity of data generated by noise models, an extremely large number of noise monitoring locations is required. (e.g. tens of thousands of noise monitors, collecting year-round data in the vicinity of an airport would be needed to match the fidelity and accuracy of noise modeling).
• Noise monitoring data is not capable of analyzing either "what if" scenarios or proposed future action airport and air space scenarios

Proposed actions and decisions by FAA officials are subject to review under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). The FAA is responsible for complying with the procedures and policies of NEPA and other environmental laws, regulations, and orders applicable to FAA actions. The FAA decision-making process must consider and disclose the potential impacts of a proposed action and its alternatives on the quality of the human environment. In meeting its NEPA obligations, the FAA should seek to achieve the policy objectives of 40 CFR § 1500.2 to the fullest extent possible. The FAA must integrate NEPA and other environmental reviews and consultations into agency planning processes as early as possible.

Environmental issues should be identified and considered early in a proposed action's planning process to ensure efficient, timely, and effective environmental review. Initiating the appropriate level of environmental review at the earliest possible time facilitates the NEPA process. Specific FAA actions subject to NEPA review can include, but are not limited to, grants, loans, contracts, leases, construction and installation actions, procedural actions, research activities, rulemaking and regulatory actions, certifications, licensing, permits, plans submitted to the FAA that require the FAA's approval, and legislation proposed by the FAA.

It is required by law. See 49 U.S.C. § 44809(a)(7). Recreational pilots may carry proof of The Recreational UAS Safety Test (TRUST) passage in an electronic or paper format.

The FAA’s Reauthorization Act of 2018 introduced new rules for how, when, and where drones can be flown for recreational purposes (49 U.S.C. Section 44809 – referred to as the Exception for Limited Recreational Operations of Unmanned Aircraft). The law requires that all recreational flyers must pass an aeronautical knowledge.

In order to make the test accessible and available to the largest viable audience, the FAA is seeking test administrators. The law permits the FAA, a community-based organization, or a person designated by the FAA Administrator to administer the test electronically.

Current 333 exemption renewal requests will be processed under the FAA's new Special Authority for Certain Unmanned Systems, 49 USC 44807. Exemptions for operations that can be conducted under 14 CFR part 107 will not be renewed. Requests for small UAS operations that require waiver (e.g. night operations, operations over people, etc.) should be submitted as requests for waiver under part 107.

No. However, prior military or civil aviation-related training may be helpful to new applicants preparing for the aeronautical knowledge test.

No. Test administrators are required to issue random, alpha numeric tokens that exclude any personally identifiable information.

To apply for a waiver through the Special Governmental Interest (SGI) process, you must be an existing Part 107 remote pilot with a current certificate OR a public agency with an existing Certificate of Waiver or Authorization (COA). If the public agency is requesting an SGI under their COA,  they must operate a UAS that is either owned by the public agency or leased to the public agency for a minimum of 90 days (See Title 49 USC 40102(a)(41)(c) and (d). If the aircraft is flown by a remote pilot in command under Part 107, the aircraft must be registered with the FAA.

If they are not a government agency, meaning they are not recognized by their state as a political sub-division of the state, they cannot operate as a public aircraft operator.
