FAA Accepted ASTM Consensus Standards

The FAA has accepted a number of ASTM consensus standards relating to the design, production, and continued airworthiness of various categories of light-sport aircraft, including airplanes, gliders, gyroplanes, lighter-than-air aircraft, powered parachutes, and weight-shift control aircraft. The standards cover topics such as design and performance, required equipment, quality assurance, production acceptance tests, operating instructions, maintenance and inspection procedures. Some standards are required while others are optional or for reference only. The FAA will use compliance with the relevant standards to determine if aircraft meet the requirements for a special category light-sport aircraft airworthiness certificate.
