Source: the FAA's designee locator (the Designee Management System), read October 10, 2026: 8,164 listings of 6,855 active designees, 7,723 of them placed on the map (a designee with several addresses is counted once per town; each is placed at the main public airport of the town the FAA lists, or, when the town has none, at the public airport nearest the centre of its zip code, from the Census Bureau's gazetteer of zip code areas, 2013 edition). Designees are listed with the name and contact details the FAA publishes for them, because the FAA lists them to be found; private individuals are not named, the site's policy at this time; a designee who would rather not appear here can ask us through the contact address on the About page. A designee's functions are the FAA's own codes (DPE-PE-ASEL is a pilot examiner for the private certificate in single-engine airplanes); the airport pages spell the main ones out. Examiners who list a flight school, FBO, operator or repair station on this site as their place of work are counted on that organisation's page (15 FBOs, 51 operators, 55 repair stations, 115 flight schools).
