Order purpose statement

This notice describes the conditions for withdrawal or denial of an application and the disposition of the certification process after the certification has begun for certifications associated with Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) parts 91 subpart K (part 91K), 119, 125, 133, 135, 137, 141, 142, 145, and 147. Because certification requires a significant commitment from both the applicant and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), certification should be initiated only after the responsible Flight Standards office is confident the applicant is committed to completing the certification.
