Field Approvals of ADS-B approved
On June 11, Paula Derks, Aircraft Electronics
Association president, testified before the U.S.
House Committee on Small Business regarding
the benefits and challenges of the Federal Aviation
Administration's 2020 NextGen mandate on the
general aviation Industry.
The hearing was subsequently followed by a
meeting with Michael G. Whitaker, FAA deputy
administrator and chief NextGen officer, along
with John J. Hickey, the agency's deputy associate
administrator for aviation safety. The followup meeting focused on the NextGen installation
challenges with a specific emphasis on ADS-B
installations.
During this subsequent meeting, Hickey made
it perfectly clear there were "80 FSDOs (Flight
Standards District Offices) ready to perform field
approvals of ADS-B systems." When asked what
systems are field approvable, Hickey focused on
any previously approved systems. When asked
about aircraft type approval needs, he said they
were focused on system approvals. As long as the
system pairs have been approved, the system is field
approvable on any aircraft type.
Hickey was highlighting a nearly two-year-old
policy that gave the authority for field approvals

of ADS-B systems. Dating to Oct. 10, 2012, the
memorandum asked: Can ADS-B Out systems
be approved using data approvals other than a
supplemental type certificate, including field
approvals? The answer is yes.
There are limitations that must be followed.
Reference to the field approval job aid will assist
the applicant, but this is the last major hurdle to
overcome as the industry pulls together in support
of the FAA's NextGen initiative and ADS-B Out
installations. The field approval process includes
the local approval of the ADS-B flight manual
supplement.

Alteration_Job-Aid.pdf.
To support the FAA, the AEA has committed
to report the success or failure of field approval
applications to the agency. As such, the AEA
requests that if its member companies make
an application for an ADS-B field approval,
please email Ric Peri, AEA vice president of
government and industry affairs, at ricp@aea.
net. Peri will collect the information and report
the effectiveness of the field approval process.
Please include the following information: date
of application; aircraft; system (ADS-B and
WAAS); FSDO; and the success or failure of
the application. The AEA will compile the
information and submit a regular report to the
FAA effective immediately through the date of
the ADS-B mandate, Jan. 1, 2020.
