Aircraft Certification Service Organizational Changes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: This notice informs the American public and aviation industry 
of organizational changes in the Aircraft Certification Service (AIR) 
of the FAA Aviation Safety Office (AVS). AIR is eliminating product 
directorates, and will be composed of six functional divisions: The 
Organizational Performance Division (AIR-300), the International 
Division (AIR-400), the Policy and Innovation Division (AIR-600), the 
Compliance and Airworthiness Division (AIR-700), the System Oversight 
Division (AIR-800) and the Enterprise Operations Division (AIR-900).

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: The Organizational Performance 
Division (AIR-300), Aircraft Certification Service, Federal Aviation 
Administration, 1200 District Avenue, Burlington, MA 01803; telephone 
(781) 238-7101; email [email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: AIR is transitioning to a functionally 
aligned organizational structure on July 23, 2017. AIR's functional 
realignment will establish an infrastructure that will enable a 
comprehensive approach to becoming more efficient and effective known 
as ``AIR Transformation.'' As a result of realignment, all product 
directorates will be eliminated and replaced with functional divisions. 
Field offices will be realigned under new routing codes, but will stay 
intact and continue to provide the public the same service they do 
today. For further details on this reorganization, please refer to 
http://www.faa.gov/about/office_org/headquarters_offices/avs/offices/air/transformation/ and https://www.faa.gov/news/fact_sheets/news_story.cfm?newsId=21315.
    You can obtain more information on the new AIR organization and the 
responsibilities and functions of the AIR divisions in FAA Order 
8100.5C, ``Aircraft Certification Service--Organizational Structure and 
Functions.'' AIR also created a new order, FAA Order 8100.18, 
``Aircraft Certification Service Organizational Realignment 
References,'' to facilitate the use of existing AIR policy and guidance 
under the functionally aligned organization. These orders are available 
online at https://www.faa.gov/regulations_policies/orders_notices/. All 
AIR-issued advisory circulars, orders, notices, and other guidance will 
remain in effect until revised, changed, or deleted.

Dorenda D. Baker,
Executive Director, Aircraft Certification Service.
