Abstract This book is aimed at advanced students and professionals, who are expected to have to make decisions regarding the fitness for service of new aviation products, whether whole aircraft or subsystems. This chapter compares initial and continued airworthiness and what goes into determining airworthiness, focusing primarily on civilian aeroplanes, with a brief foray into military codes and specifications. The ICAO process and main civilian design codes (both ICAO and sub-ICAO) for aeroplanes are described, with how to decide which applies to what aircraft. The differences between the civil and military initial airworthiness approaches are briefly described.
