About the Role

The Principal Maintenance Inspector (PMI) is responsible for applying substantial knowledge of and experience with Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) for the development and implementation of standards, programs, and procedures for Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) field personnel and the public. Certificate assignments will include surveillance and certificate management of Elite Air, Inc. (E0YA), Part 135 Air Carrier.

What You'll Do

  • PMI receives administrative direction from management in terms of broadly defined missions or functions.
  • The PMI, mostly independently plans, designs, and carries out programs, projects, studies, or other work.
  • The PMI provides policy assistance to field level Aviation Safety Inspectors (ASIs) on difficult or complex policy interpretations.
  • The work is normally accepted without change.
  • Completed work may be reviewed for adherence to FAA policy and for assurance that project requirements have been fulfilled.
  • Some FG-14 assignments involve Service wide responsibility for application of expert knowledge of general aviation maintenance.
  • Other FG-14 inspectors establish technical procedures and performance yardsticks and review maintenance programs, or who have problems of comparable scope and complexity, or a uniquely complex group of general aviation organizations.
  • Assignments at this level are of great scope and unusual complexity and the organizations monitored are major factors in the industry.
  • ASIs at the FG-14 level establish technical procedures and performance indexes and review complete maintenance programs for general aviation organizations who are leaders in the aviation industry, or who have problems of comparable scope and complexity, or a uniquely complex group of general aviation organizations.
  • Assignments at this level are of great scope and unusual complexity.
  • The following assignments are illustrative: 1.As a Service wide expert on a particular type of aircraft: -- Advises other inspectors of major changes; -- Evaluates new training methods and equipment; -- Serves on boards that evaluate incidents, accidents, complaints, and other serious problems relating to the aircraft. 2.
  • The magnitude, intensity, and scope of program responsibility are typically such as to require significant and regular assistance of lower graded inspectors.
  • FG-14 employees evaluate maintenance programs for organizations which utilize complex aircraft, systems, and equipment.
  • Because of organizational complexity or the advanced technology incorporated in the aircraft, systems, and equipment, employees must exercise originality to resolve unique problems.
