Working with Docket Information

The Docket List screen provides access to data provided by an operator to support economic authority decisions (such as for Notice of Action Aircraft).  The Summary screen’s display-only Docket Display List reflects the data entered and deleted using the Docket List on the Update Economic Authority screen.  Both screens contain rows of docket list items and, for each row, data placed in grid columns including Docket Number, Issue Date, Title/Description, Docket Link, and File Name. The Docket List on the Update Economic Authority screen provides access to Add, Edit, and Remove docket item commands.  Refer to procedure “Using the Summary Tab and Dockets List Display” for details.

Using the Docket List

To Use the Docket List (for U.S. Commuter Air and Foreign Operators):

  1. Open the Update Economic Authority window and Docket List by clicking the Update Economic Authority button (from either the Operator Summary or Economic Authority screens).

The screen displays the Update Economic Authority window with the Docket List.  The Docket List grid’s leftmost columns include the Select Row check box (also used for multi-row selection) and the Action column.  The grid displays docket item data within columns including the Docket Number, Issue Date, Title/Description, Docket Link, and File Name.

The Docket List rows include special controls that are displayed in the two leftmost columns:

Select Row check boxes and Select All Rows check box:  This grid allows you to select multiple rows (for use with the Remove function).  The Docket List displays Select Row check boxes in the first/leftmost grid column (and, in this first column’s heading, the unlabeled Select All Rows check box that allows you to select all rows).  Once you select a grid row, Row Selection check box is displayed as checked (and the row is highlighted).

View link:  For each listed docket item, the row’s Action column cell will display a View link, allowing you to view a PDF of the docket item.

  1. Review the Docket List as needed.
