Endorsements Application for Airman Certification and/or Rating
In order to improve the application process, the FAA is moving from a paper-based method of application to an Internet method. Although the application forms for pilots and mechanics are available for download at www.faa.gov/library/forms/, the FAA encourages aviation instructors to become familiar with the Internet method described below. Integrated Airman Certification and/or Rating Application (IACRA)
In the fall of 2003, the FAA released the Integrated Airman Certification and/or Rating Application, an Internet-based database program providing a fully electronic method of applying for an airman certificate or rating located at
E-5
Figure 7-8. The IACRA website.
http://acra.faa.gov/iacra/. It electronically captures and validates airman information required to complete the airman application. IACRA can be accessed from any location with Internet connectivity. [Figure 7-8]
IACRA interfaces with multiple FAA national databases to validate data and verify specific fields. IACRA automatically ensures applicants meet regulatory and policy requirements through business rules and data validation. It implements use of digital signatures throughout the certification process. IACRA automatically forwards the 8710 application and test results to the Airman Registry.
IACRA replaces the Airmen Certification and/or Rating Application CD, (ACRA), a stand-alone computer-based PC program that was the FAA’s first effort to automate the application process. With new “paths” of application added weekly, the IACRA program team continues to develop IACRA’s capability. Currently, the program can process virtually all pilot applications from sport pilot through airline transport pilot (ATP) type ratings, certificated flight instructors, mechanics, and most repairmen.
If the applicant chooses to complete the Airman Certificate and/or Rating Application utilizing IACRA, the instructor should ensure the applicant is prepared for the test and has met all the regulatory requirements, including knowledge, proficiency, required endorsements, and experience requirements. Suggest the applicant visit the IACRA site, review the frequently asked questions, and read the document “Getting Started Desktop Instructions” before completing an application. Stress the importance of the applicant having all pertinent information readily available before logging in. If the applicant has all necessary information available, the process should not take over ten minutes.
Remind the applicant the instructor can supervise the application process. Or the instructor can log onto IACRA any time after the applicant has completed the initial process and call up the application based on the FAA Tracking Number (FTN) assigned to the applicant. When using IACRA, the applicant must complete the applicant’s section, and the instructor certifies the applicant’s information.
An online public-accessible training center for IACRA, hosted by the FAA Safety Team (FAASTeam) at http://faasafety.gov/ is under development. When operational, there will be a link on the IACRA website to the training center. A number of different training aids to include a fully interactive practice IACRA program will be available. This program will enable the instructor to fill out practice applications, review them and sign them off, giving the instructor a better feel for the entire process.
FAA Forms 8710-1, 8610-2, and 8710-11
Forms 8710-1, 8610-2, and 8710-11 are the print versions of the Airman Certificate and/or Rating Application. Again, the instructor ensures the applicant is prepared for the test and has met all the regulatory requirements, including knowledge, proficiency, required endorsements, and experience requirements before the application process. The applicant then either completes the 8710 or 8610 paper form by hand or completes a digital computer-based form found on the FAA website. This form is in PDF. Remind the student that while the form can be completed online, the data cannot be saved and the applicant must print a copy before closing the window or the data will be lost. Instructions for completing the form are available on the website. After printing the requisite form, the applicant physically signs it and then the instructor verifies the information and signs the form, which is mailed to the nearest FSDO. Downloadable versions of the FAA Forms 8710-1 and 8610-2 are available at www.faa.gov/library/forms/.
Figures 7-9 and 7-10 are examples of a private pilot applicant who received training under 14 CFR part 61. This is only an example, since the form is periodically revised to reflect changes in the applicable rules and regulations. If the current form is a later edition than the one shown here, the instructions must be read very carefully to ensure all areas of the form are filled out correctly. The example shown is annotated with additional guidance to clarify or reinforce certain areas that are frequently found incomplete by the FAA during the certification process.
