Nimbl Guide Explains FAA Streamlined LOA Process

Business aviation manual and SMS software developer Nimbl has released a guide relating to the FAA’s streamlined Part 91 approval process for letters of authorization (LOA). The guide explains the benefits of the streamlined LOA process, identifies eligible operators, and details how to submit applications. 

According to Nimbl, the guide provides steps operators can use to apply for multiple LOAs in a single submission, which can reduce approval timelines and compliance delays.

“We recognized that the LOA application process can be somewhat daunting for operators,” said Nimbl v-p of strategic partnerships Clément Meersseman. “By working closely with the FAA, manufacturers, training institutions, and stakeholders to support the development of a streamlined approach, it’s now possible for flight departments to secure multiple LOAs more efficiently.”

In October, the company introduced an emergency response plan (ERP) guide to help operators prepare for crises. The free guide helps business aircraft operators, including small flight departments, develop ERPs.
