AMC1 M.B.303(b) Aircraft continuing airworthiness monitoring
ED
Decision 2015/029/R
SCOPE
OF SURVEYS
1. The competent authority should undertake
sample product surveys of aircraft on its register to verify that:
(a) the condition of an aircraft as sampled
is to a standard acceptable for the Certificate of Airworthiness/Airworthiness
Review Certificate to remain in force,
(b) the operator/owner’s management of the
airworthiness of the aircraft is effective,
(c) the approvals and licenses granted to
organisations and persons continue to be applied in a consistent manner to
achieve the required standards.
A physical
inspection of the aircraft is necessary during each ACAM survey (ramp or
in-depth).
2. Sample product surveys of aircraft
include:
(a) in-depth surveys carried out during
extensive maintenance that fully encompass selected aspects of an aircraft’s
airworthiness,
(b) ramp surveys carried out during aircraft
operations to monitor the apparent condition of an aircraft’s airworthiness.
3. When performing a ramp survey, the
inspector(s) should make all possible efforts to avoid an unreasonable delay
of the aircraft inspected.
4. The further information on ‘KEY RISK
ELEMENTS’ can be found in Appendix III to
GM1 M.B.303(b).
