PMA Parts
If you’re in need of PMA parts, DABS can help design and manufacture parts. Every company which manufactures parts not integrated into the aircraft at the time of “Type Certification” must obtain their own Parts Manufacturer Approval (PMA) from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). The process for PMA parts is a combined design and production approval process for modification and replacement articles. It allows a manufacturer to produce and sell these articles for installation on type certificated products. Federal Aviation Administration Orders 8110.42 and 8120.22 prescribe the approval procedures for FAA personnel and guides applicants in the approval process.
