M.A.704(a)(1) AMC Continuing airworthiness management exposition
1. Part 0 ‘General organisation’ of the continuing airworthiness management exposition
should include a corporate commitment by the CAMO, signed by the accountable
manager, confirming that the continuing airworthiness management exposition and any
associated manuals define the organisation’s compliance with Part-M and, as applicable,
with Part-ML and will be complied with at all times.
2. The accountable manager’s exposition statement should embrace the intent of the
following paragraph, and in fact this statement may be used without amendment. Any
amendment to the statement should not alter its intent:
‘This exposition defines the organisation and procedures upon which the CAA’s* CAMO
approval is based.
These procedures are approved by the undersigned and should be complied with, as
applicable, in order to ensure that all continuing airworthiness tasks are carried out on
time to an approved standard.
It is accepted that these procedures do not override the necessity of complying with any
new or amended regulation published from time to time where these new or amended
regulations are in conflict with these procedures.
It is understood that the CAA will approve this organisation whilst the CAA is satisfied that
the procedures are followed and the work standard is maintained. It is understood that the
CAA reserves the right to suspend, limit or revoke the CAMO approval or the air operator
certificate, as applicable, if the CAA* has evidence that the procedures are not followed
and standards not upheld.
Signed .....................................
Dated ......................................
Accountable manager and ... (quote position) ...
For and on behalf of ... (quote organisation’s name) .... ’
3. Whenever the accountable manager is changed, it is important to ensure that the new
accountable manager signs the paragraph 2 statement at the earliest opportunity as part
of the acceptance by the CAA. Failure to carry out this action invalidates the CAMO
approval or the air operator certificate.
