Download Certification and Traceability Requirements

These requirements establish the minimum certification and documentation documents required when selling, consigning and/or supplying material to Red Aviation. All material supplied to Red Aviation must be traceable to a regulated source. Additional and/or unique requirements may be specified on Red Aviation’s purchase order. It is expected that all requirements will be honored by our suppliers. Any deviations require written approval from Red Aviation Quality Management prior to shipment

  4. Certified Component Repair Stations (FAA, JAA, EASA, TC or CAAC), providedthe material they’re supplying is within the repair capabilities of their Air Agency Certificate.

1.1 Non-Regulated Sources

1. Any sources not meeting the definition above for “Regulated Source” are considered by Red Aviation to be “Non‐Regulated Sources.” Further examples of Non‐Regulated Sources are other surplus parts suppliers, dealers, brokers, aircraft and/or engine leasing companies or certified repair stations selling material outside of their repair capabilities.
