However, from what I've
heard from a close friend, who owns an avionics shop, the FAA has dictated that all FSDOs require a field approval for ALL GPS installations, IFR or VFR. It's bull ****, but apparently, that's what they want. Don't ask me why. --- Jay (in Baltimore and/or Washington FSDO, depending on where I am) WRONG......... As chief inspector of a maintenance and avionics shop, I *TOLD* the Baltimore FSDO's avionics inspector that all VFR GPS installations we did would be done in accordance with AC20-138A and would be minor alterations. Remember folks, A&P's/IA's/repair stations interpert the regulations and FSDO's enforce the regulations. If a FSDO inspector takes you to task for something you've read, interperted, and done, insist that he/she supply you with REGULATORY INFORMATION that refutes your opinion (and keep an open mind). I know that ALL the avionics shops under the Baltimore FSDO are on the same page, because my director of maintenance and I, with the help of AEA, organized several meetings with the avionics shop personnel and the FSDO to iron this issue out. |
