Case Study:

A certificated aircraft maintenance technician (AMT) with an inspection authorization (IA) had his AMT certificate and IA authorization revoked by the FAA for reasons not disclosed. The AMT/IA appealed the revocation order by the FAA, but the judge affirmed the revocation order and the AMT/IA was to surrender his AMT certificate and IA authorization to the FAA. The AMT/IA failed to surrender certificate and authorization at the time the order was issues. Four days later the AMT/IA performed an annual inspection on an aircraft and signed off the maintenance logs using the revoked certificate and authorization numbers. The FAA, on three occasions, requested the AMT/IA surrender certificate and authorization, but the AMT/IA failed to surrender the documents. After three years the AMT/IA finally surrendered the documents. The FAA issued a $6,000 civil penalty to the AMT/IA for performing an annual inspection after certificate/authorization revocation.
