California maintenance symposium March 2007

[Denny of Oakland]

Once again I have been asked to speak at the Northern California maintenance symposium March 2007 here in the San Francisco Bay Area. I have started working on the lesson plan, which will cover some of the new FAR’s like Section 91.405(d) for STC’s and the new Sport-Pilot FAR 91.327 rules that will effect mechanics. I provide handouts of the talk to aid and understanding the material to br presented.

The event is FREE to attend and well worth your time. The symposium is aimed at maintenance, however much of the information is for pilots as well and we give credit for the Wings Program if you attend.

For those that want to renew your A&P/IA certificate this symposium meets all the requirements on both days Friday and Saturday. FAA Inspectors will be on hand to sign your renewal cards and applications will be provided along with certificates to take back to your local FSDO. This is the biggest symposium in the country so plan a head to attend. The Oakland FSDO will be setting up on-line registration so you don’t have to stand in line filling out your registration card and FAA form 8610-1.

Many venders show up and GREAT gifts are given out.

We will receive a discount at the hotel we stay in, I will provide addition information about hotel location and rates as we get closer to the event.

The office is mailing out 5,000 notices to A&P this week about the event. And in a day or two I will have a link where you can register on line or you can register the day of the event. Its still FREE and you can still get your IA signed off at the event.

I will post the link when I get it.

On January 30, 2007 the FAA placed an amendment to Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 65, §§ 65.92 and 65.93, in the Federal Register, Volume 72, No. 19. The amendment becomes effective on March 1, 2007. This amendment changes the duration of the IA from 1 year to 2 years and places the IA renewal on March 31 of an odd numbered year (i.e., 2009, 2011, etc…). It also changes the renewal and currency requirements to keep the IA in effect during the even numbered years.

This can be found in FAA Notice 8000.354, which gives FAA Inspectors guidance for the A&P/IA renewal.
