The main purpose of this legislation, known as the Airmen Certificate Accessibility Act, is to modernize the way airman certificates are presented to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). It aims to establish clear guidelines for acceptable formats, allowing for both physical and digital certificates. Key provisions of the Act include the recognition of two main formats for presenting airman certificates. Individuals can present a physical certificate issued by the FAA or a digital certificate that can be stored on an electronic device or in a cloud-based system.
