This may include but is not limited to:
2.7.1 maintenance programme,
2.7.2 airworthiness directives,
2.7.3 repairs/modification data,
2.7.4 aircraft maintenance manual,
2.7.5 aircraft illustrated parts catalogue (IPC),
2.7.6 wiring diagrams,
2.7.7 troubleshooting manual,
2.7.8 MEL (normally on board the aircraft),
2.7.9 operator’s manual,
2.7.10 flight manual,
2.7.11 engine maintenance manual,
2.7.12 engine overhaul manual.
2.8 Incoming conditions
The contract should specify in which condition the aircraft should be made available
to the maintenance organisation. For extensive maintenance, it may be beneficial
that a work scope planning meeting be organised so that the tasks to be performed
may be commonly agreed (see also paragraph 2.23 ‘Meetings’).
2.9 Airworthiness directives and service bulletins/modifications
The contract should specify the information that the CAMO is responsible to provide
to the maintenance organisation, such as:
2.9.1 the status of the ADs including due date and the selected means of
compliance, if applicable; and
2.9.2 status of modifications and the decision to embody a modification or an SB.
In addition, the contract should specify the type of information the CAMO will
need in return to complete the control of ADs and modification status.
2.10 Hours and cycles control
Hours and cycles control is the responsibility of the CAMO, and the contract should
specify how the CAMO should provide the current hours and cycles to the
maintenance organisation and whether the maintenance organisation should
receive the current flight hours and cycles on a regular basis so that it may update
the records for its own planning functions (see also paragraph 2.22 ‘Exchange of
information’).
2.11 Life-limited parts and time-controlled components
The control of lifelimited parts and timecontrolled components is the responsibility
of the CAMO. The contract should specify whether the CAMO should provide the
status of lifelimited parts and timecontrolled components to the maintenance
organisation, and the information that the approved organisation will have to provide
to the CAMO about the removal/installation of the lifelimited parts and timecontrolled
components so that the CAMO may update its records (see also paragraph 2.22
‘Exchange of information’).
2.12 Supply of parts
The contract should specify whether a particular type of material or component is
supplied by the CAMO or by the maintenance organisation, which type of
component is pooled, etc. The contract should clearly state that it is the
maintenance organisation’s responsibility to be satisfied that the component in
question meets the approved data/standard and to ensure that the aircraft
component is in a satisfactory condition for installation. Additional guidance on the
acceptance of components is provided in M.A.501, ML.A.501 and 145.A.42.
2.13 Pooled parts at line stations
If applicable, the contract should specify how the subject of pooled parts at line
stations should be addressed.
2.14 Scheduled maintenance
For planning scheduled maintenance checks, the support documentation to be
given to themaintenance organisation should be specified. This may include but is
not limited to:
2.14.1 applicable work package, including work cards;
2.14.2 scheduled component removal list;
2.14.3 modifications to be incorporated.
When the maintenance organisation decides, for any reason, to defer a
maintenance task, it has to be formally agreed with the CAMO. If the
deferment goes beyond an approved limit, please refer to paragraph 2.17
‘Deviation from the maintenance schedule’. This should be addressed, where
applicable, in the maintenance contract.
2.15 Unscheduled maintenance/defect rectification
The contract should specify to which level the maintenance organisation may rectify
a defect without reference to the CAMO. It should describe, as a minimum, the
management of approval of repairs and the incorporation of repairs. The deferment
of any defect rectification should be submitted to the CAMO.
2.16 Deferred tasks
See paragraphs 2.14 and 2.15 above, as well as 145.A.50(e), M.A.801(f) and
