FAQs

This checklist covers maintenance program requirements related to EASA CS-23 (Normal-Category Aeroplanes), CS-25 (Large Aeroplanes), CS-27 (Small Rotorcraft), and CS-29 (Large Rotorcraft) certification specifications.

The checklist should be used during initial maintenance program development, annual reviews, and whenever significant changes are made to the aircraft or its operational profile that may affect maintenance requirements.

This checklist is typically implemented by maintenance program managers, continuing airworthiness management organizations (CAMOs), and quality assurance personnel responsible for ensuring regulatory compliance in aircraft maintenance.

The checklist addresses areas such as scheduled maintenance tasks, inspection intervals, component life limits, airworthiness directives compliance, corrosion prevention and control, and structural inspection programs as required by the applicable EASA certification specifications.

By ensuring that maintenance programs are comprehensive and compliant with EASA regulations, this checklist helps prevent potential safety issues, reduces unscheduled maintenance, and optimizes aircraft reliability and operational efficiency.
