Production Basis None, before original airworthiness certification of each aircraft, an FAA representative must 
perform a detailed inspection for workmanship, materials, conformity with the approved technical 
data, and a check of the flight characteristics. In the event of an app lication for a standard 
airworthiness certificate or, if an applicant intends to produce a new aircraft under 14 CFR § 
21.183(d), and the applicant is manufacturing, building, or assembling to another person’s type 
certificate, the applicant must provide written evidence of permission from the type certificate holder. 
Conduct of such activity without written evidence of permission may be a violation of 49 U.S.C. § 
44704 a)(3).

water vapor), all accessory drives unloaded (no external power extraction), and fuel with a minimum cetane number of 36 per 
ASTM D613.
