Single Selection Search for Aircraft Type Ratings 

The Single Selection Search screen for Aircraft Type Ratings allows you to select the type rating for which you are seeking certification.  This screen will only allow you to select one aircraft type rating to add to your certification data.

1.  Select Search Criteria

  • By ID or Type - Select this option to retrieve a list of type ratings based on the current designation. 

  • By Description - Select this option to retrieve a list of type ratings based on an aircraft's manufacturer/model.

2.  Narrow the Field of Search.   Enter 1 or more alphanumeric characters of the current type rating designation or the aircraft manufacturer/model description (depending on the search criteria you selected in step 1.), and click the Search button.  For example, if you enter the letter "g" and click Search, only aircraft type ratings beginning with the letter "g" appear in the retrieval list.  The more characters you enter into the field, the more the search function narrows your search results, and the faster your search results will appear in the retrieval list.  You can see how many records were found for your search by looking in the Record Count field below the retrieval list.

  • Retrieval List  - This is where your search results appear sorted by your selected search criteria. 

  • Selected Item  - The aircraft type rating you select from the Retrieval List will appear in the Selected Item field. 

3.  Select an aircraft MMS.  To add an aircraft type rating to your application, click on the type rating in the Retrieval List .  The selected type rating appears in the Selected Item field.  Click OK and the aircraft type rating is added to your application data.  To select a different type rating, just click on a type rating from the Retrieval List.  The new selection will appear in the Selected Item field.  To return to the application page without making a selection, click the Cancel button.
