ANNEX I- PART M

Regulation (EU) 1321/2014

INTRODUCTION TO PART M

 Part M was introduced in JAA during 2003 and becomes mandatory

in 2006,

 Why Part M important?

 Initially, AMO managed maintenance records of aircraft. When

aircraft is getting old and subjecting more major servicing at various
AMOs, more historical maintenance data were found not available.
Thus, AMO needs to gather information by exercising much effort.
These may not be reliable at all. This costs lot.

 This incurred a mismanagement of maintenance and hampered

airworthiness of the aircraft.

 JAA identified this and emphasized the importance of having a

proper monitoring system of aircraft airworthiness and a responsible
person the all the tasks.
INTRODUCTION TO PART M……CONTD….
 Afterwards, Part M came to manage this continuing
airworthiness by complying for section A and B
requirements.

 Owner/ Operator was made responsible to keep the aircraft

airworthy by maintain records, history of the aircraft, proper
maintenance through Part 145/ certifying staff, preparation
of MP, establishment of CAMO and CAME, proper
management structure, effective technical services/
production planning divisions

 Today this is compulsory EASA requirement to run a EASA

approved CAT.
