Form 8120-10 electronically and submit it to any FAA engineering field office and/or

manufacturing field office.

Accessing NACIP is through the FAA website located at > Aircraft > Aircraft

Authorized DERs will be given access to NACIP and must generate a login ID and password.

•

the RFC.

Completing the FAA Form 8120-10 Electronically

Submitting an RFC through NACIP requires entering the same information as when it is submitted as

a hardcopy. Additional features on the NACIP version of the RFC are input lines for the originator to

record the name and identification number of the principal DER involved in the conformity, any

additional DERs, and the DMIR who is authorized to perform the inspection (if any). If the principal

DER is authorized to disposition unsatisfactory items found during the inspection, the check box

must be selected on the Principal DER entry line. The remarks listed on the manual version of the

form should also appear when using NACIP. The below example shows part of a NACIP input screen

listing the Principal DER and remarks.
