This certification demonstrates the compliance of Liebherr-Aerospace’s processes with the requirements of European regulation Part 21, Section A, Subpart J which establishes the certification rules for companies that design and manufacture aircraft systems and aircraft parts.
The DOA is a mandatory certification for every commercial aircraft designer and is also available to system manufacturers such as Liebherr-Aerospace. The Management of Liebherr-Aerospace Lindenberg GmbH stated: “This certification will enable us to validate our own repair solutions for landing gear systems. It also allows us to be entrusted with a higher level of delegation from air framer customers in the management of product development.”
Liebherr-Aerospace Toulouse SAS, sister company of Liebherr-Aerospace Lindenberg GmbH and Liebherr’s center of excellence of air management systems is also recognized by EASA as a DOA certified company for air management systems to approve minor changes to type-design and minor repairs.
