AMC M.B.301 (a) Maintenance programme
For DGCA to verify compliance with M.A.302, the auditing surveyor/inspector should have received training on maintenance programme development and control.
AMC M.B.301 (b) Maintenance programme
1.
When assessing aircraft maintenance programmes for approval, DGCA should verify that the maintenance programme is acceptable for the continued airworthiness of the specific aircraft listed and it is appropriate for the proposed operating environment and scheduled utilisation.

2.
DGCA should assess the contents taking into account the origins of the document i.e. the manufacturers recommended maintenance programme, a MRB report, the operators own experience or another approved programme. 

3.
DGCA may elect to publish a proposed maintenance schedule for a piston engine aircraft type or a group of piston engine aircraft types below 2730Kgs maximum take off mass (MTOM). When owners/operators of piston engine aircraft below 2730Kgs MTOM elect to use a DGCA proposed maintenance schedule, all the out of phase manufacturer recommendations should be incorporated into the final maintenance programme in order for it to be approved.

4.
A copy of the approved programme should be retained by DGCA, unless the programme is approved by a M.A. Subpart G approved organisation. 

5.
The documentation issued by DGCA to approve the operator’s maintenance programme may include details of who may issue certificates of release to service in a particular situation and may define which tasks are considered as complex maintenance tasks or limited pilot owner maintenance according to Appendix VIII to CAR-M. 

6.
In the case of commercial air transport or large aircraft, development of the approved operator’s maintenance programme is dependent upon sufficient satisfactory in-service experience which has been properly processed. In general, the task being considered for escalation beyond the MRB limits should have been satisfactorily repeated at the existing frequency several times before being proposed for escalation. Appendix I to AMC M.A.302 and M.B.301 (b) gives further information. 

7.
DGCA may approve an incomplete maintenance programme at the start of operation of an aircraft or an operator, subject to limiting the approval of the maintenance programme to a period that does not exceed any required maintenance not yet approved. 

8.
If DGCA is no longer satisfied that a safe operation can be maintained, the approval of a maintenance programme or part of it may be suspended or revoked. Events giving rise to such action include:

8.1 An operator changing the utilisation of an aircraft;
8.2 The owner or M.A. Subpart G approved organisation has failed to ensure that the programme reflects the maintenance needs of the aircraft such that safe operation can be assured.

AMC M.B.301(c) Maintenance Programme
1.  Approval of an aircraft maintenance programme through a procedure established by a
M.A. Subpart G organisation should require the organisation to demonstrate to DGCA that it has competence, procedures and record keeping provisions, which will enable the organisation to analyse aircraft reliability, TC holder’s instructions, and other related operating and maintenance criteria. 
2.
According to the complexity of the aircraft and the nature of the operation, the maintenance programme procedures should contain reliability centered maintenance and condition monitored maintenance programme procedures and have procedures relating to the programme control which contain the following provisions:
