This order provides Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) inspectors with an initial familiarization concerning the Pilot Records Improvement Act of 1996 (PRIA), which is codified at Title 49 of the United States Code (49 U.S.C.) § 44703(h), (j), and (k), and the Pilot Records Database (PRD). Additionally, it equips inspectors with the knowledge and necessary tools to competently observe, record, and evaluate the PRIA and PRD functions of any air carrier or operator assigned to them. Using this order, the inspector should be able to successfully conduct an audit or an inspection of PRIA/PRD-related pilot records, as a normal surveillance procedure or in response to an alleged statutory violation.
