Air Operator Maintenance Requirements *
AOC – 02 Maintenance Control Manual *
The company utilizes individual Maintenance Control and Maintenance Policy Manuals. A discrepancy relating to policy and procedures for the control of maintenance / service instruction information was raised. The responsibility for obtaining and making technical information available resides with the Air Operator, whereby MCM policy and procedures must specify how the operator will ensure that publications are available and current. Other minor deficiencies were noted in the MCM; these are documented under a separate finding.
AOC – 04 Evaluation Program *
Audits are generally completed as indicated in the MPCM and follow up procedures have been completed, or are in the completion process. Independent Inspection anomalies, illegible entries and data entry errors and omissions were identified during this audit indicating that the daily sampling of log books and weekly surveillance is not being accomplished as required.
AOC – 06 Technical Records *
Conformity Certificates providing the details of maintenance performed were not generated as required or were found to be incomplete. In other instances, the company did not always comply with requirements to transcribe maintenance details into the permanent technical record.
AOC – 12 Defect Recording, Rectification and Control Procedures *
A review was conducted on a sampling of each type of aircraft in the Acme Aero fleet. Findings indicated recurring defects are not identified as such because the company definition differs from the Canadian Aviation Regulations.
AOC – 13 Airworthiness Directives / Service Bulletins Compliance *
On one occasion the company permitted the operation of an aircraft for up to 43 hours with an outstanding Airworthiness Directive requirement. In addition, this aircraft was operated while a particular Airworthiness Directive was not fully complied with. The company immediately removed the aircraft from active service while a follow up review with the AMO that completed the work was conducted
Approved Maintenance Organization *
AMO – 10 Qualification and Training *
The maintenance training requirements of CAR 573.06 and 706.12 are being met, although no formal procedures for the planning and control of maintenance training have been developed. The company indicated that an amendment to the MPM is underway and will resolve this deficiency when completed.
PART III — OPERATIONS SPECIALTY AREA SUMMARIES *
Note: if specialty area summaries are not included in the report, the executive summary must clearly
