Actually, the certification process is not difficult if an applicant takes it one step at a time. Applicants who wish to conduct a more complex operation such as interstate operations, scheduled service, instrument flight rules or use multiple pilots will find this information provides a solid basic foundation, but will need to develop additional documents to become certificated. We recommend applicants review the following information, complete the required documents, and submit a complete package. This will help expedite the certification process. To complete the package use the Table of Contents as a checklist and complete each section as you go.
Forms provided in the package are for printing only.
Sample letters need to be modified to fit individual situations. When the submissions are complete or if you need any additional assistance please contact the FAA Alaskan Flight Standards District Office nearest you. This advisory circular provides an overview of the certification process. Each applicant should review this document during the initial stages of the certification process. A blank form is provided.
