Certified for the road and the runway
The Pico meets every applicable U.S. car-seat safety standard set by the NHTSA, and it's FAA-approved for use on airplanes. That's the whole point.
For an in-person check, a certified Child Passenger Safety Technician (CPST) near you can confirm your install is dialed in. The service is typically free, and worth doing with any new seat.
