Source: the FAA's designee locator (the Designee Management System), read October 10, 2026: 9,064 listings of 7,259 active designees, 5,449 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). The locator names each designee with a telephone number and email address; this site shows counts only, its policy at this time. 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, 56 operators, 216 repair stations, 74 flight schools).
