Forms and Checklists for Repair Station/AMO complied with ADCA 145 (before renewal or recertification)

Refer TCAR 8 Part 145, AMC1 145.A.10, Line Maintenance should be understood as any maintenance that is carried out before flight to ensure that the aircraft is fit for the intended flight.

(a) Line Maintenance may include:

• Troubleshooting.
• Defect rectification.
• Component replacement with the use of external test equipment, if required. Component replacement may include components such as engines and propellers.
• Scheduled maintenance and/or checks, including visual inspections that will detect obvious unsatisfactory conditions/discrepancies but do not require extensive in-depth inspections. It may also include the internal structure, systems and powerplant items which are visible through quick-opening access panels/doors.
• Minor repairs and modifications which do not require extensive disassembly, and can be accomplished by simple means.

(b) For temporary or occasional cases (AD's, SB's) the Compliance Monitoring Manager may accept base maintenance tasks to be performed by a line maintenance organisation subject to a risk assessment and provided all requirements are fulfilled as defined by the CAAT.

(c) Maintenance tasks that fall outside these criteria are considered to be Base Maintenance tasks.

(d) Aircraft that are maintained in accordance with ‘progressive’ type programmes should be individually assessed in relation to this paragraph. In principle, the decision to allow some ‘progressive’ checks to be carried out should be determined by the assessment that all the tasks within the particular check can be carried out safely and to the required standards at the designated line maintenance station.
