FAA AIR600-20-600-PM01 Clarifying the FAA’s Use of Digital Signatures under FAA Order 1370.121, FAA Information Security and Privacy Program & Policy and Deviation to FAA Order 8120.22A, Production Approval Procedures

This memorandum clarifies that the FAA has broad authority to sign documents using digital
signatures in accordance with FAA Order 1370.121, FAA Information Security and Privacy
Program & Policy. This includes using digital signatures to sign type certificates, supplemental
type certificates, and letters of design approval, undue burden determinations, and other letters
to applicants/approval holders.

This memorandum also authorizes a deviation to FAA Order 8120.22A, Production Approval
Procedures to allow the use of digital signatures to sign production certificates, production
limitation records, technical standard order authorizations, parts manufacturer approval letters
and supplements. Until now, Order 8120.22A prohibited the use of “electronic” signatures to
sign these documents.

FAA Final Rule Docket No. FAA-2020-0289; Amdt. No. 121-383 Oxygen Mask Requirement: Supplemental Oxygen for Emergency Descent and for First Aid; Turbine Engine Powered Airplanes With Pressurized Cabins

This action amends the
oxygen mask requirement for
circumstances in which a single pilot is
at the aircraft controls. This action
applies to all certificate holders who
conduct domestic, flag, and
supplemental operations. This action
responds to a statutory mandate that
requires the FAA to increase the flight
level threshold at which the FAA
requires use of an oxygen mask by the
remaining pilot at the aircraft controls
when the other pilot at the controls
leaves the control station
