In FAA usage, a production certificate authorizes manufacture under an approved type design.

Check source meaning → confirm the preferred term → record approved variants and references.
FAA production approval files may cite a type certificate or supplemental type certificate as the design basis. A Production Limitation Record can identify the products or articles covered by a Production Certificate. When preparing Chinese copies, inventory these attachments separately and preserve the authority, certificate reference, legal entity and product identifiers as supplied.
Keep the production authorization distinct from the design approval and from an airworthiness certificate for an individual aircraft. If a pack includes documents from more than one authority, record each source title and jurisdiction in the bilingual register. Ask the responsible team to approve the Chinese rendering if the name will be used in a formal submission.

Illustrative wording only. Confirm the rendering against the actual source and approved project terminology.
List the production document and referenced design approval in their own fields.
Match the authority, references and attached records against the source pack.
Provide the document inventory and the source titles, together with the intended Chinese use and named reviewer.
Separate the production authorization from the type design approval and its associated reference. For Chinese submissions, use the title printed on the issuing authority’s document; terminology for a CAAC approval may differ.
Check procedure sequence, part names, limits and cautions against the supplied references. Applicable aviation or market requirements depend on the product and project pathway.
Provide approved terms and previous translations with the source files. Agree how variants, ambiguous wording and revisions will be reviewed. Terminology maintenance and any termbase handback are confirmed in the project scope. See the 8-step AI + expert workflow.
