How do I arrange for a candidate nominated as a Finding Authority (FA) to receive the appropriate assignment of authority from the Technical Airworthiness Authority (TAA)?
Each candidate must first satisfy the criteria as outlined in the Technical Airworthiness Manual (TAM), C-05-005-001/AG-01, Part 2, Chapter 1, and AF9000 Plus Map-on-Line procedure TAA04.006. Once the minimum criteria are met, the Applicant is to complete the form Request For and Approval of Assignment of Authority to make Findings of Compliance found at Annex A of TAA04.006 and forward it to the relevant Directorate of Technical Airworthiness and Engineering Support (DTAES) 3 OPI. Approval of acceptable applications will be carried out by the TAA.
