§ 43.11 

(5) 

Segregation. 

The part may be seg-

regated using methods that deter its 
installation on a type-certificated 
product. These methods must include, 
at least— 

(i) Maintaining a record of the part 

number, serial number, and current life 
status, and 

(ii) Ensuring the part is physically 

stored separately from parts that are 
currently eligible for installation. 

(6) 

Mutilation. 

The part may be muti-

lated to deter its installation in a type 
certificated product. The mutilation 
must render the part beyond repair and 
incapable of being reworked to appear 
to be airworthy. 

(7) 

Other methods. 

Any other method 

approved or accepted by the FAA. 

(d) 

Transfer of life-limited parts. 

Each 

person who removes a life-limited part 
from a type certificated product and 
later sells or otherwise transfers that 
part must transfer with the part the 
mark, tag, or other record used to com-
ply with this section, unless the part is 
mutilated before it is sold or trans-
ferred.

worded statement—‘‘I certify that this 
aircraft has been inspected in accord-
ance with (insert type) inspection and 
was determined to be in airworthy con-
dition.’’

ment—‘‘I certify that this aircraft has
