flight certification
Flight certification is the official approval process that ensures an aircraft and its pilot meet safety and operational standards set by aviation authorities. It involves thorough inspections, testing, and documentation to verify the aircraft’s airworthiness, such as proper design, maintenance, and safety systems. For pilots, certification confirms they have the necessary training and skills. Once certified, the aircraft is deemed safe to operate, allowing it to fly commercially or privately. This process helps protect passengers, crew, and the public by maintaining high safety standards within the aviation industry.
