Where this term appears

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.

Translation checks

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.

Check the distinction in context

List the production document and referenced design approval in their own fields.

Check the returned Chinese file

Match the authority, references and attached records against the source pack.

Prepare the connected files

Provide the document inventory and the source titles, together with the intended Chinese use and named reviewer.

Keep the term aligned across your files

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.
