To ensure that airports are meeting the requirements of 14 CFR Part 139, there are approximately 35 FAA Airport Certification Safety Inspectors that conduct annual and unannounced certification inspections. In the course of the inspection, inspectors look at the movement areas, aircraft rescue and firefighting (ARFF), fuel facilities, and lighting. Additionally, the inspectors view the airport files and the airport certification manual, Airport Master Record (FAA Form 5010), Notices to Airmen (NOTAM), and airfield self-inspection forms.
