FAA Order 8130.2 focuses on what area?

• A. Airworthiness Certification of Aircraft
• B. Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations
• C. Advanced Aviation Training Device
• D. Advisory Circular

Answer: (A)

Airworthiness certification is the process this FAA order governs. FAA Order 8130.2 lays out the procedures for issuing airworthiness certificates for aircraft and aircraft components, including standard airworthiness certificates and export certificates, along with the necessary documentation and signatures. It defines who can sign, what records are needed, and the steps to verify that the aircraft conforms to its approved design and the applicable airworthiness standards before it may operate. This order is a procedural guide used in the field by FAA staff and authorized designees to document that an aircraft is airworthy. It’s not about the regulations themselves (Title 14 CFR), nor about training devices, nor about advisory circulars.
