1. The letter of application should be of sufficient detail to allow the GACA to make the decision to support the project. The content must indicate the following:

1. Design Approval holder/applicant name and normal place of business;

2. Description of the design change; including an explanation of the purpose of the change, the pre-modification and post-modification configuration(s) of the product, schematics/pictures, and any other detailed features and boundaries of the physical change (this may be supplemented by drawings or outlines of the design, as well as the identification of the changes in areas of the product that are functionally affected by the change, and the identification of any changes to maintenance and operational manuals.

3. Aircraft type, serial number and KSA registration marks;

4. Organization that will be responsible for performing the design change on the aircraft;

5. Location of the aircraft during the design change project;
