Project Documents

You use the Project Documents page to upload documents related to the AWC application that you are filing. You access this page in a variety of ways, depending upon the type of application that you are filing. In all cases, you can access the page by selecting Documents from the tabbed third-tier menu below the application data block.

Special Note: The data on this page displays as read only when the application status is canceled, closed or withdrawn.

At the top of the FAA header, Help, User Guide, and References links are displayed in the right corner along with a Signout link. The Help link opens page-specific help for the current page. The User Guide link opens the Airworthiness Certification Applicant User Guide, which is the secondary resource for Airworthiness Certification Applicant Portal application user procedures and reference information. The References link opens a page allowing you to access FAA reference data relevant to airworthiness certification. The Signout link logs you out of the application and takes you to the System Use Notice. At the bottom of the FAA header, your name displays right justified along with a Person icon (); clicking the icon displays a pop-up screen with a list of the roles assigned to you.

The title bar showing the application name, "Airworthiness Certification (AWC) - Applicant Portal," displays at the top of the page below the standard FAA page header. The Airworthiness Certification application navigation top-level menu bar displays just below the title bar and contains the links that provide access to the Airworthiness Certification commands, or functions: My AWC, Search, Reports and My Profile.

Notes:

• Documents that can be selected and uploaded are dependent upon the type of certificate, permit, or authorization requested. Reminder notices are also provided on the Documents page for users to consult FAA Order 8130.2 to confirm which documents are required for the type of certificate, permit, or authorization requested, and, if applicable, to upload a valid copy of the registration document issued by the State of Registry.
• For applicable certification types, the Documents data grid contains a digital copy and an unsigned copy of the FAA Form 8130-6. There is no need to take action on these forms. The unsigned copy of the FAA Form 8130-6 will be replaced with the electronically signed FAA Form 8130-6 when you submit the application. Note that these documents cannot be deleted or modified.
• If the certification basis for the certificate you are applying for includes an attachment listing the applicable STCs, the STC document, one or more, displays in the Documents data grid on this page.
• Click Next to move forward to the next page in the application process when you do not want to take any actions on this page.

The following project information displays in an application data block below the top-level menu:

In addition, below the application data block is a tabbed third-tier menu with links to the various pages in the application process. The tabs are color coded indicating whether the pages under that tab are complete (green), in progress (yellow) or not yet started (red). Pages with required fields are marked with icons indicating completed (), in progress (), or not yet started ().

The third-tier menu has the following categories: Aircraft Info, Owner/Applicant Info, Aircraft Operations, External Document, and Review/Submit. Each category has links to the relevant various pages in the application on which you are working.

The Project Documents page name appears below the third-tier menu.
