Small Business Innovation Research/Small Business Tech Transfer
Innovative Airworthiness Certification Concepts and Quality Assurance Processes for the PAV, Phase I
Project Introduction
We propose to develop a foundation for the Airworthiness Certification of the Personal Air Vehicle (PAV), This framework will recommend a model for Quality Assurance, consistent with the "consensus" based industry standards, and acceptable to the FAA. Further, our focus will include the review of certain FAA Regulations (CFAR) that create economic barriers to entry to the aircraft industry for high-volume automotive manufacturers and to offer alternative concepts for certification that remove or reduce these barriers.
