		<description><![CDATA[Has your company taken advantage of the FAA’s streamlined process for PMAs on Non-Safety-Sensitive (NSS) parts, yet?  If so, MARPA wants to hear from you.

Found in FAA Order 8110.119, the streamlined process involves following the MARPA 1100 Standard for PMA applications for NSS parts.  Those who follow that standard and confirm that they meet the elements of the FAA Order are entitled to expedited processing.  The FAA’s goal is to turn-around NSS PMA applications that meet the MARPA standard within 30 days.

In order to assist MARPA members navigating the streamlined PMA process, we are seeking to issue a set of Best Practices to help guide PMA manufacturers through the new procedure.  For this we’d like to hear from you regarding your experiences using the streamlined process. 

MARPA will compile these responses into a Best Practices guide that will be made available exclusively to MARPA members.  <a href="http://pmaparts.wordpress.com/2013/04/10/marpa-seeks-data-for-streamlined-pma-best-practices-guide/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#187;</span></a><img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=pmaparts.wordpress.com&#038;blog=4427434&#038;post=957&#038;subd=pmaparts&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The FAA has released a new draft Advisory Circular that is intended to describe acceptable statistical methods for developing substantiating data for comparative test and analysis compliance findings to support FAA approval of turbine engine and APU parts produced under a PMA, TC, STC, repair or alteration. 

Several members have brought this AC to our attention and expressed their concerns about the details of this guidance.  We welcome specific comments from members about problems and/or ways to improve this document.  Based on member comments we have received so far, the proposed guidance appears likely to discourage applications to produce replacement parts.  One reason for this is the large suggested sample size, and associated high costs, necessary to satisfy the proposed statistical analysis metrics. <a href="http://pmaparts.wordpress.com/2013/03/18/comments-sought-on-proposed-faa-advisory-circular-for-engine-and-apu-comparative-test-and-analysis/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#187;</span></a><img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=pmaparts.wordpress.com&#038;blog=4427434&#038;post=947&#038;subd=pmaparts&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The FAA's streamlined process for PMAs on Non-Safety-Sensitive (NSS) parts is found in FAA Order 8110.119.  The process involves following the MARPA 1100 Standard for PMA applications for NSS parts (which is available on our website).
