What are the procedures for getting a U.S. aircraft previously type certified by FAA certified by CAAC in China? I am aware that a bilateral airworthiness agreement exists between the U.S. and China.

ANSWER: I would contact the CAAC directly for that information:

Director, Airworthiness Certification Division
Aircraft Airworthiness Certification Department
Civil Aviation Administration of China
#155 Dongsi Street West
Beijing 100710 P.R. China
Fax: (8610) 64033087
Phone: (8610) 64092331

If you would like to read the bilateral agreement between the U.S. and China, you can find that information by clicking on the "Reference Links" button on the left of this page and then click on the Bilateral Aviation Safety Agreements link.
