Private pilot oral question: Where can you review the type certification of your [Piper Archer]?

A: the type certificate data sheet!


https://rgl.faa.gov/Regulatory_and_G...1EA-1_Rev3.pdf

The 550 falls under a new type certificate (# A21EA-1) that is owned by MHI RJ Aviation ULC. But it’s not exactly a “new” type certificate. If you go look at the original type certificate (# A21EA) you’ll see the most recent revision says that the 550 and other models were “administratively transferred” (whatever that means) to the new certificate.

So I guess you’re all wrong? Or all right? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

By the way: MHI RJ Aviation = “Mitsubishi Heavy Industries”….so neither Bombardier, nor Hulas, nor G7 directly or wholly own the Type.
