What is an IFR Certification Inspection?
An IFR (Instrument Flight Rules) certification inspection ensures your aircraft's instruments, navigation, and communication systems are functioning correctly and in compliance with FAA regulations. This inspection is required for aircraft operating under IFR and helps guarantee that your avionics equipment meets accuracy, reliability, and safety standards.
What Does an IFR Certification Inspection Involve?
During an IFR certification inspection, our certified technicians perform a thorough evaluation of your aircraft's avionics systems, navigation equipment, communication radios, and required instruments. Our goal is to confirm the equipment is calibrated, operational, and compliant with FAA Part 91.411 and 91.413 standards. Inspections typically include:
- Pitot-Static System – Inspection and functional testing of the pitot-static system to ensure accurate altitude and airspeed indications.
- Altimeter System – Functional testing of the altimeter to confirm accuracy within specified tolerances required for IFR flight.
- Transponder – Inspection and certification of transponder functionality and Mode C altitude reporting in compliance with FAA Part 91.413.
- Navigation & Communication Radios – Verification of navigation (VOR, ILS, GPS) and communication radios to ensure accurate signal reception and clarity.
