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/ownerâs 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 aircraftâs airworthiness,
(b) ramp surveys carried out during aircraft operations to monitor the apparent condition of an aircraftâs 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 âKEY RISK ELEMENTSâ can be found in Appendix III to GM1 M.B.303(b).
