MAINTENANCE PROGRAMME CHECKLIST - CAA

Transcription

MAINTENANCE PROGRAMME CHECKLISTWhen completed this form should be returned to the assigned Regional Office.Please complete this form online or in BLOCK CAPITALS using black or dark blue ink.The purpose of the Maintenance Programmes Compliance Checklist is to assist owners / operators with a view to ensuringthat Maintenance Programmes submitted to the CAA for approval are standardised and include all items that are required byEASA Part M.A.302, AMC M.A. 302 and also other additional CAA nationally required items. This checklist, when completed,should be submitted with the draft maintenance programme.This document includes all the relevant information as detailed in Appendix 1 to the Acceptable Means of Compliance (AMC),the format of which may be modified to suit the operator's preferred method. In all cases the checklist should clearly showeither compliance (yes) & location of the compliance in the notes section or not applicable (no) & the reason in the notessection.The specific tasks and the relevant control procedures shall be included as specified in the Maintenance Programme (MP) orContinuing Airworthiness Management Exposition (CAME) of the operator / subpart G organisation managing the aircraft. Therelevant cross-references shall be specified in the notes column at the appropriate paragraphs and the correct term MP orCAME shall be used. It is not acceptable simply enter the MP or CAME as the cross-reference.The checklist is provided to ensure the minimum required items are contained in the Maintenance Programme. It should beenhanced as necessary to suit the aircraft's needs; operational, utilisation & environmental.Part M subpart G number and AOCNumber (if applicable):CAA MP/ reference:CAME Ref (if applicable):Owner / Operators Name:Owner / Operators MP/ reference:Amendment Status:Details of the previous maintenanceprogramme:1.
