The FAA is slowly removing the requirement to fill out 8710's for
ratings. There is a new web site.

The student fills out their checkride app, you approve it as the CFI,
the DE approve it after the checkride and the web site prints a
temporary certificate. All the DE's in the Sacramento FSDO are now
required to have laptops to work with this. The FSDO is excited about
this because Oklahama gets the app in seconds and there is no lost
paperwork.
