FAA Order 8100.8(), Designee Management Handbook, establishes "policy and procedures for the selection, [2] appointment, orientation, training, oversight, renewal tracking, and termination of certain representatives of the Administrator" of the Federal Aviation Administration. [3] In particular, it is a resource for individuals interested in becoming a Designated Engineering Representative (DER). [4]
DERs are not employees of the FAA. FAA employees must resign from the FAA before obtaining DER certification. [5]
Subject to FAA Notice 8000.372 Manufacturing Designee Management System Implementation (2014), all Designated Airworthiness Representatives for Manufacturing (DAR-Fs) and Designated Manufacturing Inspection Representatives (DMIRs) are subject to the policy in FAA Order 8000.95, Designee Management Policy. Order 8100.8 is no longer applicable to these two designations. [6] [7] [8]
FAA Order 8100.8 Revision D cancels FAA Order 8130.33C, Designated Airworthiness Representatives: Amateur-built and Light-Sport Aircraft Certification Functions, by adding a section to provide guidance and policy for selection and appointment of DARs to the functions of light-sport aircraft airworthiness certification.
Date Issued November 20, 1998
This guidance document provides a wide variety of guidance on how to manage FAA designees and will be phased in incrementally. FAA Notice 8000.372 directs all AIR manufacturing personnel who oversee designees to stop using Order 8100.8 and begin using Order 8000.95 on a schedule. The schedule reflects the implementation of the Designee Management System (DMS) in those offices.
Under that schedule, all MIDOs with designee management responsibilities should have transitioned to Order 8000.95 during the summer (of 2014). So Order 8000.95 will have supplanted 8100.8 for [Manufacturing Inspection District Offices] MIDOs (but not necessarily for ACOs and FSDOs). This means that DMIRs and DAR-Fs have transitioned. But DERs should still be under 8100.8 until they are formally transitioned (at which time they will fall under the instructions of 8000.95). [emphasis added]
