3/31/06 8300.10 CHG 23 CHAPTER 22. CERTIFICATE AIRFRAME AND/OR POWERPLANT MECHANIC/ADDED RATINGS SECTION 1. BACKGROUND 1. PROGRAM TRACKING AND REPORTING SUBSYSTEM (PTRS) ACTIVITY CODES. A. Maintenance: 3501, 3508 B. Avionics: 5501, 5508 2. OBJECTIVE. This chapter provides guidance for certificating applicants for mechanic certificates and ratings. All airworthiness or avionics inspectors who review these documents shall hold a mechanic certificate with both an Airframe and Powerplant (AP) rating. Aviation safety technicians (AST) who review these documents shall hold a mechanic certificate with either an Airframe or Powerplant rating, however, review would be limited to the rating held by the authorized AST. 3. CERTIFICATION PROGRAM. A. A recent FAA/military plan provides for military applicant certification integrity by completely specifying the applicant’s military training and experience in a level of detail that exceeds the minimum standards set forth in Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 65, § 65.77(b), Aviation Maintenance Technician Schools (AMTS). Furthermore, this training and/or experience must be certified by authorized persons in the applicant’s branch of service and recorded on a military Experience and Training joint service form, CG-G-EAE-2, FAA Certification Performance of Job Tasks (see Figure 22-2). This form has been used by the U.S. Coast Guard to certify eligibility for AP certification for many years and has now been adopted by the Department of Defense as a standard form used for personnel certification. B. The appropriate office in each of the joint services will then use the data on the CG-G-EAE-2 form to issue CG-G-EAE-4, Certificate of Eligibility (see Figure 22-3), to each qualifying applicant. The applicant may then present the completed Certificate of Eligibility and the FAA Certification Performance of Job Tasks form to a Flight Standards District Office (FSDO)
