Purpose of This Notice. This notice provides guidance to Federal Aviation Administration
(FAA) aviation safety inspectors (ASI) on program policies and procedures related to Specialty
Aircraft Examiners (SAE), which are created as a new Designated Pilot Examiner (DPE) type.
SAEs include Vintage Aircraft Examiners (VAE), experimental aircraft examiners (EAE),
Vintage Flight Engineer Examiners (VFEE), Limited Aircraft Examiners (LAE), Sport Pilot
Examiners (SPE), and Sport Pilot Flight Instructor Examiners (SFIE). Additional designees may
be added to the SAE type if future needs require examiners who do not fit into the traditional
DPE types.

traffic throughout the National Airspace System (NAS). Safety is the basis of the service that the ATO provides, and Voluntary Safety Reporting Programs (VSRPs) are a key component of the ATO Safety Management System (SMS), providing a method to identify and correct potential safety hazards. These important programs encourage voluntarily submitted safety reports from employees involved in the delivery of air traffic services and are foundational to a healthy safety culture.
The mission to improve safety is never complete. We must familiarize ourselves with the contents of this order and understand our own important role in the process. As ATO employees participate in our VSRPs, they should know that they help improve our safety awareness and understanding in the NAS.

Purpose of This Notice. This notice amends FAA Order JO 7110.65, Air Traffic Control, paragraph 4-5-6, Minimum En Route Altitudes, to allow IFR certified Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) equipped aircraft to be cleared below published Minimum En Route Altitudes (MEA).

Purpose of This Notice. This notice provides guidance to principal operations inspectors (POI) with oversight responsibilities for Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 119 certificate holders conducting 14 CFR part 121 and/or 14 CFR part 135 operations on regulatory requirements for flight instructors and check pilots/check Flight Engineers (FE).

This memorandum provides a 1-year extension to the Limited DAR-F program for accredited distributors established by AIR memorandum AIR-100-16-160-PM13, dated October 14, 2016.

This advisory circular (AC) provides guidelines that industry may use to develop and revise the minimum scheduled tasking/interval requirements for derivative or newly type certificated (TC) aircraft and powerplants for Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) approval. This AC refers to these minimum scheduled tasking/interval requirements as the Maintenance Review Board Report (MRBR), the Maintenance Type Board Report (MTBR), or the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM)/Type Certificate Holder (TCH) Recommended Maintenance Procedures. After FAA approval, the requirements become a basis upon which operators develop their own individual maintenance programs. The report will become a dynamic report for each OEM/TCH (i.e., a document subject to periodic revision based on new or changed analysis or requirements)
