Official FAA STC List
Posted: Mon Jan 11, 2021 6:07 am
I'm sure many of you are aware of this information, but if not, this may be useful.
The FAA list of STC's for our planes is at this address:
https://rgl.faa.gov/Regulatory_and_Guid ... enFrameSet
On the left of the page, there is a list of ways to search for an STC.
The option "by make" goes to an alphabetical listing of aircraft manufactures. Clicking on C gets you to the page with the Cessna. There are 2 names to search..."Cessna Aircraft Company", and "Cessna Aircraft Company, The".
Common sense tells you that these 2 lists will contain the same STC's for our planes. Unfortunately, FAA (whom I worked for for 20 years) is not always overwhelmed with common sense! There are many STC's on both lists, but there are several that are not on both lists. For example, one STC I was searching for, SA3815NM for the BAS, Inc. retractable pull handle, is only on the "Cessna Aircraft Company, The" list.
A search in the "STC holder" option for BAS, Inc, also located it.
Our Association and Univair also have good STC lists, but not as comprehensive as the FAA site.
If nothing else, this is interesting reading at 2:30 am when you just can't get back to sleep!
