Turn the association's experience into your benefit.
 
ICA - The Basics
Description:  This session overviews the regulatory basis for ICA, including what documents are considered ICA and the obligations of design approval holders to prepare, furnish and otherwise make them available under 14 CFR § 21.50(b). It also covers the related regulations that apply to operators and maintenance providers regarding the use and availability of ICA. Finally, it shows how the FAA has interpreted some of the more important ICA requirements in Order 8110.54.

ICA - The Business Side

It also addresses various design approval holder (DAH) business practices that affect the availability and use of ICA and explains the FAA's policy prohibiting DAHs from engaging in certain behaviors. Finally, it explores various FAA ICA legal interpretations and some of the issues being examined in an ongoing anti-trust inquiry by the European Commission's Competition Directorate.
