Mechanic Certification: Inspection Rating and Recent Experience Requirements
FAA proposes to replace inspection authorization with an inspection rating on mechanic certificates, affecting airframe and powerplant mechanics. No direct impact on TCPA/telemarketing compliance.
Aforeworn detected this change in the Telemarketing & TCPA Compliance space on July 5, 2026 and published this briefing so affected operators are forewarned rather than caught off guard.
