Information on panels, fairings, and similar variations in configuration that can be nonstandard at dispatch as long as it does not affect the safety of flight.

To secure the aircraft and the system against inadvertent operation when some of the MMEL items are inoperative or degraded at dispatch require actions

Whenever the airframe manufacturer or the engine manufacturer have modifications or suggestions for improving maintenance and/or servicing, they will issue appropriate paperwork to the affected airlines.SB : Service Bulletins

SL : Service Letter

MT : Maintenance Tip

04/18/23 25

A service bulletin (SB) is usually a modification of a system that will provide improved safety or operation of a system and includes a detailed description of the work and parts required.

A service letter (SL) usually provides information to improve maintenance actions without equipment modification.

The maintenance tip is a suggestion for maintenance personnel to assist in their work or improve conditions.

Airworthiness Directives (ADs)Airworthiness Directives (ADs)Issued by the FAA (Design Authority) to correct an unsafe

condition that exists in a product (aircraft, aircraft engine, propeller, or appliance) and a condition that is likely to exist or develop in other, similar products.

An AD, whose incorporation is mandatory, may be issued initially by the FAA or may be an action after the airframe manufacturer has issued a service bulletin (SB)

AD will include (a) a description of the unsafe condition(b) the product to which the AD applies(c) the corrective action required(d) date of compliance(e) where to get additional information(f) information on alternative methods of compliance if

applicable.

Operations specifications Ops Specs Technical policies and procedures manual

TPPM Inspection manual IM Reliability program manual RPM Minimum equipment list MEL Task cards* TC Engineering orders EOs

04/18/23 32

Operations specifications◦ Written by the airline in accordance with strict FAA

requirements and usually with the help of an FAA representative.

◦ Refers to numerous other documents to avoid duplication and details the airline's maintenance, inspection, and operations programs.

Technical policies and procedures manual◦ Primary document for the airline's M&E operation and, with

other documents supplied by the airframe manufacturer, serves as the FAA requirement for a maintenance manual per AC 120-16D.

◦ Usually written by engineering, to ensure technical accuracy, from inputs supplied by management of the various M&E organizations.

◦ Define exactly how all M&E functions and activities will be carried out.

04/18/23 33

The TPPM is sometimes called the policies and procedures manual (PPM), general maintenance manual (GMM), or the maintenance

organization exposition (MOE)

IM : Inspection manualIM : Inspection manualMay be a separate document distributed primarily to QC personnel, or it can be a chapter in the TPPM (usual approach).

Relate to all inspection activities within M&E: (a) mechanic inspection tasks from the MPD or the MRB report(b) QC inspector's tasks(c) special inspections (hard landings, bird strikes, etc.)(d) the airline's Required Inspection Item (RII) program(e) the paperwork, forms, and reports required to carry out these functions.

RPM : Reliability program manualRPM : Reliability program manual Airline's reliability program must be approved by the regulatory

authority Minimum equipment list (MEL)Minimum equipment list (MEL)

Customize the MMEL for the operator particular airframe/engine configuration.

The operator must carry copies of this MEL in each aircraft for flight crew reference.

The applicable items in the DDG and the CDL should also be included with the MEL.

Task cardsTask cards To avoid unnecessary duplication of certain actions, and the

unnecessary opening and closing of the same panels, then the operator write their own task cards to spell out exactly what to do

Engineering orders (EO)Engineering orders (EO) Official paper work, issued by engineering and approved by QA Some airlines called simply a "Work Order."

04/18/23 35

RII examplesa. Installation, rigging, and adjustments of flight controls and surfaces. b. Installation and repair of major airframe or

engine structural components. c. Installation of an aircraft engine, propeller,

propeller blade, or rotor. d . Installation, repair, and calibration of certain avionics and navigational equipment.

- What is an Air Operator ?“Air operator or Aircraft operator” means any person which provides the service of transport of goods or passengers by aircraft;

- What is an Air Operator Certificate?A Certificate authorizing as operator to carry out specified air transport operation.

THE AIR OPERATOR CERTIFICATE - ICAO ANNEX 6,

4.2.1.1 An operator shall not engage in commercial air transport operations unless in possession of a valid air operator certificate or equivalent document issued by the State of the Operator.

4.2.1.2 The air operator certificate…. shall authorize the operator to conduct commercial air transport operations in accordance with such conditions and limitations as may be specified.

04/18/23 39

4.2.1.3 The issue of an AOC …….by the State of the Operator shall be dependent upon the operator demonstrating an adequate organization, method of control and supervision of flight operations, training programme and maintenance arrangements consistent with the nature and extent of the operations specified

Air Operator Certificate-procedure- The procedure for application and granting

of an AOC is best organized in phases and will normally take following sequence;- 1. Pre-application phase- 2. Formal application phase- 3. Document evaluation phase- 4. Demonstration and inspection phase - 5. Certification phase
