MEL Bulletin Record


Bulletin Record Page
Bulletins are issued on an as needed basis to convey timely information to the
Flight Crew and Maintenance Personnel. Bulletin information may supersede
current information found in this manual or introduce new procedures due to
changes in the regulatory or operating environment. Bulletins will have either a
verbal or written FAA acceptance or approval prior to distribution. Bulletins are
to be inserted in the area so designated on the first page of the bulletin. Their
insertion or removal is to be recorded below. Bulletins will be removed once the
material covered is incorporated into a Company manual revision (usually the
next revision), or is no longer valid. Bulletins will be numbered consecutively un-
less otherwise noted. Bulletins are to be inserted in the area as designated on
the first page of the bulletin. Bulletin insertion or removal requires an entry in the
Bulletin Record page of the MEL. Bulletins will be removed once the material
covered is incorporated in the next MEL revision or when the information therein
is no longer valid. When a Bulletin is issued by FAX, it is the responsibility of the
current PIC (Pilot-in-command) to insert the bulletin into the respective aircraft
MEL. When a Bulletin is issued through the normal process, it is the responsibil-
ity of the assigned technician to insert the bulletin in the appropriate manner as
described on the first page of the Bulletin. Current bulletin status is available
from the Technical Publications department.

GENERAL

The purpose of the M.E.L. is to authorize Chautauqua Airlines to oper-


ate particular aircraft with equipment that is no longer in operational con-
dition.

Individual items contained within this M.E.L. are sequenced utilizing the
ATA numerical system. Individual items will address procedures for both
operational and maintenance personnel to follow in conjunction with
Chautauqua Airlines' Operations and Maintenance Manual procedures
as applicable.

________________________________________________________

Deferral Procedures

This section describes two of the methods to defer a maintenance item


at Chautauqua Airlines. They are:

- M.E.L.

- C.D.L.

1. General

Chautauqua's policy is to repair all noted defects as quickly as possible.


Every effort is made to correct deficiencies before any consideration is
given to deferral. Deferrals for inoperative systems which are listed in
the type aircraft Minimum Equipment List (MEL) or Configuration Devi-
ation List (CDL) are authorized using the procedures specified in this
section.

INTRO-1
EMB 135/145 Series MEL
Introduction
CHQ Rev. 14 Date: 09-01-06

2. Authority

Flights under FAR Parts 91 or 121 may not be initiated with inoperable
instruments or equipment installed unless such operation with inopera-
tive equipment is permitted by an approved MEL or CDL. Approved
MEL/CDL items include those items of equipment related to airworthi-
ness and operating regulations and other items that may be inoperative
and still maintain an acceptable level of safety by appropriate conditions
and limitations.

3. Responsibilities

Chautauqua Airlines maintains a program for management of the MEL


that consists of the following:

a. MAINTENANCE CONTROL

1. The Maintenance Controller on duty, through consultations with


the flight crew and the maintenance technician, is responsible to
ensure that the chosen MEL/CDL item is an appropriate deferral
for the deficient system.

2. The Manager of Maintenance Control reviews the following items


during the Daily Operations Meeting held Monday through Friday,
attended by representatives of each department in the Engineer-
ing and Maintenance Division.

- Total number of MELs by fleet type

- Reason for any delay in the repair of an MEL item

- Review of plans to bring together parts, maintenance personnel


and aircraft to complete the repair of MEL items

b. MAINTENANCE TECHNICIAN

1. If items are deferred due to the unavailability of parts, Mainte-


nance personnel are responsible to ensure that an order (using a
computer tracking system part requisition) has been submitted to
the Purchasing/Repairs Department. It is the responsibility of the
Purchasing/Repairs Department at Chautauqua Airlines to ensure
that parts have been ordered/expedited and a firm delivery date
has been established.

INTRO-2
EMB 135/145 Series MEL
Introduction
CHQ Rev. 14 Date: 09-01-06

c. FLIGHT CREW

1. Prior to flight the pilot-in-command will assess the affect of multiple


inoperative items and the increased work load on safety.

This would include review of all assigned MEL deferrals and the
aircraft for their relationships to one another as well as the provi-
sos for each deferral that may dictate to consider another system
inoperative.

Any restrictions imposed by an assigned MEL item or one listed


as to be “Considered Inoperative” must be followed. These restric-
tions may be listed in either the “Flight Crew Operating Proce-
dures” column or the “Remarks / Exceptions” column of the
appropriate MEL item(s).

Example:

MEL Item 24-20-03 (-1), Inverter, states in the MEL provisos


(Remarks / Exceptions), under proviso a), that the GPWS/Wind-
shear is considered inoperative.

This would lead to the GPWS/Windshear MEL Item 34-41-00 (-


6 or -7), this MEL item (-7) has a proviso b) which limits the air-
craft and does not allow take off and landings in known or fore-
cast windshear conditions.

In the situation above, the restrictions of both the Inverter MEL


and the GPWS/Windshear must be followed.

2. Any requirement listed in the “Remarks / Exceptions” column of


the appropriate MEL item(s) that requires action prior to departure
must be confirmed for completion by the PIC through verbal com-
munication with Maintenance Control. Contacting Maintenance
Control is the only positive means to confirm compliance with
these types of provisos.
Example:
MEL Item 73-33-02 (-1) Fuel Filters advisory messages states in
proviso a) that the fuel-filter mechanical actual-by-pass indicator
is checked not extended before each departure.
This would mean that the PIC must contact MX Control and ver-
bally confirm that the fuel-filter mechanical actual-by-pass indi-
cator has been inspected for extension since the previous flight.

CHQ Rev. 14 Date: 09-01-06

4. Control, Review and Distribution of the MEL

Chautauqua’s Engineering Department reviews revised MMELs appli-


cable to Chautauqua's aircraft. The revisions are reviewed by the appli-
cable company Engineer and the aircraft Flight Operations Fleet
Manager. The Engineering Department chairs a committee to review
the MMEL.

a. The MEL Committee members listed below are responsible for the
required Chautauqua MEL changes:

1) Maintenance Department

a) Manager of Maintenance Control or his / her designee

b) Applicable Engineer or his / her designee

2) Flight Department

a) Director of Flight operations or designee.

3) Systems Operations Control Department

a) Manager of Dispatch or his / her designee

4) Technical Publications

a) Manager of Technical Publications or his / her designee

b. A copy of the revised MMEL is given to the Committee members for


review and is compared to Chautauqua's MEL. The Committee
members are assigned specific duties to develop procedures to
meet the revised MMEL requirements.

c. New procedures developed by the Committee members (when


required) are given to the Engineering Department to be formatted.
The revised MEL procedures are distributed to the appropriate
Committee members for review and comment. The revised MEL is
submitted to the local FAA Principal Operations Inspector (POI) for
final approval.

d. Once the POI has given final approval, Technical Publications dis-
tributes the approved MEL in accordance with normal distribution.

INTRO-4
EMB 135/145 Series MEL
Introduction
CHQ Rev. 14 Date: 09-01-06

e. DISTRIBUTION

For distribution or revision status of the M.E.L., check the company


Intranet, or contact the Manager of Technical Publications at (317)
484-6038. (This is also a Dialnet number).

The Manager of Technical Publications (or his/her designee) distrib-


utes and monitors this M.E.L. Monitoring is performed through the
CALM database and controlled through the Fleet Publication Change
(FPC) program. A unique part number is assigned to each publication,
coding it for insertion or removal.

Normally, within 3 working days after receipt of formal FAA approval,


Tech Pubs will issue advance copies of the latest revision/bulletin to
the Manager of Maintenance Control and advise the Manager of Tech-
nical Services. Within a maximum of 5 working days from receipt from
Tech Pubs, the Manager of Maintenance Control, or designee, will ad-
vise the Manager of Technical Services via e-mail, that the necessary
review has been accomplished to commence installation of the updat-
ed fleet manuals. The Manager of Technical Services will confirm the
following prior to activation:
• Manuals are prepared and shipped to the maintenance bases.
• The manual part number is loaded in inventory.
• Maintenance Planning is advised of the task.
• The FPC is prepared.
The Manager of Technical Services will then ensure the following is ac-
complished upon activation of fleet swap:
• The maintenance tracking system is updated.
• The FPC is activated.
• Maintenance Planning is prepared to commence.
• Sabre is updated by Maintenance Control.
• Manual revision status is updated.
The fleet swap is accomplished via the Fleet Publications Change form
and is normally completed within 21 days of approval from Manager of
Technical Services. The Manager of Technical Services, or designee is
the controlling authority on this process.

f. CONTROLLING DOCUMENT DURING REVISION DISCREPANCY

During times of an MEL revision, a discrepancy may arise between the


revision number installed in the aircraft and the revision number of
other MEL documents.
Any differences between MEL revisions will be resolved by referencing
the MEL issued to the Maintenance Control dept. The MEL housed in
the Maintenance Control dept. is the current controlling document.

INTRO-5
EMB 135/145 Series MEL
Introduction
CHQ Rev. 14 Date: 09-01-06

When Maintenance Control issues an MEL /CDL that involves a revision


discrepancy, Maintenance Control will electronically (Fax, Email, Etc.)
forward a copy of the affected page(s) from the controlling document to
be printed out and placed within the MEL document in question. The af-
fected page(s) are those page(s) that list the MEL item and provisions,
maintenance procedures, applicable charts and/or CDL pages. The for-
warded copy will be placed in the front of the MEL by the Pilot In Com-
mand and annotated as follows:
"This copy is to remain with the MEL"

g. MISSING MEL PAGES

When Maintenance Control issues an MEL /CDL that involves missing


portions of a manual, Maintenance Control will electronically (Fax,
Email, Etc.) forward a copy of the affected page(s) from the controlling
document to be printed out and placed within the MEL document in
question. The affected page(s) are those page(s) that list the MEL item
and provisions, maintenance procedures, applicable charts and/or CDL
pages. The affected MEL manual must be replaced at the next Mainte-
nance base that has a spare manual available. This will be coordinated
by the Maintenance Control department after forwarding any required
pages to the aircraft.

5. Bulletins (Temporary Revisions)


Bulletins (Temporary Revisions) represent a temporary form of a revi-
sion and will be issued on an as needed basis to convey timely informa-
tion. Bulletins are so identified and printed on yellow paper and are
distributed in the normal manner as outlined in the General Policies
Manual. Bulletins requiring immediate incorporation are sent by fax fol-
lowed by regular copy.
Bulletins are reviewed by the applicable company Engineer (or his/her
designee) and the aircraft Flight Operations Fleet Manager (Or his/her
designee). All Bulletins will be reviewed and coordinated in conjunction
with the FAA.
The Manager of Technical Publications (Or his/her designee) issues ap-
proved bulletins. Bulletins are not issued through the publications track-
ing system and no Acknowledgement Letters are issued with them. The
status is posted via all normal revision status reporting systems.

Bulletins are to be inserted in the area as designated on the first page


of the bulletin. Bulletin insertion or removal requires an entry in the Bul-
letin Record page of the MEL. Bulletins will be removed once the mate-
rial covered is incorporated in the next MEL revision or when the
information therein is no longer valid.

INTRO-6
EMB 135/145 Series MEL
Introduction
CHQ Rev. 14 Date: 09-01-06

When a Bulletin is issued by FAX, it is the responsibility of the current


PIC (Pilot-in-command) to insert the bulletin into the respective aircraft
MEL. When a Bulletin is issued through the normal process, it is the re-
sponsibility of the assigned technician to insert the bulletin in the appro-
priate manner as described on the first page of the Bulletin.
Bulletins will only be utilized for items of a time critical nature and can
not be less restrictive than the current MEL. The introduction of new
MEL items other than those of a time critical nature, may only be done
through the normal MEL revision process. In any case, the FAA must be
involved and agree with the issuance of a Bulletin.

Examples of items that may be issued as Bulletins are as follows:


a. Changes for typographical errors.
b. Procedure clarification. The addition of statements or the changing
of the text to clarify a currently approved procedure may be per-
formed through an MEL Bulletin. A normal procedural change must
be accomplished through the normal revision process, except as
listed in items C and D.
c. New procedures due to changes in the regulatory environment, i.e.
Airworthiness Directives, Federal Aviation Regulations, etc.
d. A procedure that may be deemed as inappropriate or does not ade-
quately address the intended function of the MEL provisos.
6. Deferral of Inoperative Systems

The deferral of inoperative systems starts with notification to the Main-


tenance Controller by the technician or flight crew.

When the inoperative system is determined, the Maintenance Controller


initiates the deferral process by selecting the proper MEL for that defi-
ciency. It is important that this item's interrelationship with other inoper-
ative or deferred systems is evaluated and does not cause an
unairworthy condition. It is the Maintenance Controllers responsibility for
assuring that no aircraft is released from maintenance with multiple MEL
items inoperative without first determining that any interface or inter-re-
lationship between inoperative systems or components will not result in
a degradation in the level of safety. The dispatcher releasing the aircraft,
and the pilot-in-command must also assess the affect of multiple inop-
erative MEL items and the increased work load on safety; as well as
checking the airworthiness of multiple inoperative MEL items.

A.) Deferring Items by Maintenance Personnel, either Chautauqua or


On-Call

The Technician at the aircraft performing the deferral is ultimately


responsible for verification and completeness of the deferred item.

Introduction
Rev. 17 Date: 04-30-08

The Maintenance Controller responsible for the deferral must be famil-


iar with the chosen MEL/CDL item and procedures. If necessary, the
Maintenance Controller will contact an individual familiar with the sys-
tem for assistance.

1) It is agreed upon by the Technician at the aircraft and the Mainte-


nance Controller responsible for the aircraft that the chosen MEL/
CDL item is a valid deferral for the deficient system.

2) The Maintenance Controller enters the information into the D.R.B.


computer system. The computer then automatically generates a
ticket number.

3) Maintenance Control has the technician make the following


entries in the corrective action block for the original discrepancy in
the Log Book Form GMM-101 after the confirmation is complete:

a) Item Being Deferred

b) MEL/CDL number and category code

c) Full name and employee number of the Maintenance Controller


responsible for and authorizing the deferral

d) The technician enters his/her signature and employee (contract


maintenance enters A&P) number in the technician’s signature
block

e) The date

f) Ticket Number generated from the D.R.B. computer system.

4) The Technician repeats the original discrepancy and the deferral


entry to the Maintenance Controller verifying its correctness and
location.

5) The Technician is responsible for installing an “Inoperative” plac-


ard (with the MEL/CDL number) on all applicable components,
controls or indicators in accordance with the procedure listed on
the MEL/CDL item.
6) The Technician enters the deferral information on the Flight Log
Deferred Index Form GMM-M105.

Introduction
CHQ Rev. 14 Date: 09-01-06

7) The technician enters the discrepancy in the computer tracking


system. See “M.E.L. computer entry”. If the item is deferred by
Contract Maintenance or flight crew personnel, Chautauqua
Maintenance makes the entry in the computer at the next base.
Notification of the required entry to personnel at the next base will
be initiated by Maintenance Control.

B) Deferring Items by the Flight Crew

Maintenance Items that may be deferred by the flight crew under the
direction of Maintenance Control are identified in the specific MEL item
under the Crew Operating Procedures column for that item (reference
Definitions section of specific MEL). If the Maintenance Item requires a
Maintenance Action, a mechanic will be dispatched to complete the
required Maintenance Action, unless that item has been previously
determined and approved that the crew member may perform the
deactivation procedure. The Flight Crew operating Procedures column
will have the following statement for those Maintenance Deactivation
Procedures that may be performed by the flight crew: “This deactiva-
tion procedure may be accomplished by the flight crew, under direct,
verbal communications with Maintenance Control”
Deactivation procedures that may be accomplished by the flight
crew must be done so under direct, verbal communication with
Maintenance Control.
If the flight crew determines they cannot perform the maintenance
procedure, then a mechanic will be dispatched to the aircraft to
complete the required maintenance action.

If the maintenance Controller issuing the deferral determines that


the crew member performing the deactivation procedure can not
properly perform those actions, then the Maintenance Controller
must dispatch maintenance personnel to the aircraft to perform
such actions.

Procedures requiring specialized knowledge or skills that a crew


member would not normally have, or a procedure requiring the
use of tools or test equipment will be accomplished by mainte-
nance personnel.

Crew members are not allowed to perform Maintenance Deactiva-


tion Procedures when the item is being deferred at a Chautauqua
Airlines Maintenance Facility.

1) Maintenance Control and the flight crew consult ensuring the dis-
crepancy is accurately entered in the Log Book GMM-101.

2) Maintenance Control initiates the deferral process by selecting the


applicable Minimum Equipment List (MEL) number for the inoper-
ative item or system.

Rev. 17 Date: 04-30-08

3) The Maintenance Controller enters the information into the D.R.B.


computer system. The computer then automatically generates a
ticket number.

4) Maintenance Control has the flight crew make the following


entries in the corrective action block for the original discrepancy in
the Log Book Form GMM-101 after the confirmation is complete:

a) Item Being Deferred

b) MEL/CDL number and category code

c) Full name and employee number of the Maintenance Controller


responsible for and authorizing the deferral

d) Flight crew enters his/her signature and employee number in


the action taken block (not the Technician Block)

e) The date

f) Ticket Number generated from the D.R.B. computer system.

5) The pilot repeats the original discrepancy and the deferral entry to
the Maintenance Controller verifying its correctness and location.

6) The flight crew is responsible for installing an “Inoperative” placard


(with the MEL/CDL number) on all applicable components, con-
trols or indicators in accordance with the procedure listed on the
MEL/CDL item.

7) The flight crew enters the deferral information on the Flight Log
Deferred Index Form GMM-M105.

8) At the next maintenance base, maintenance control is responsible


to ensure that maintenance reviews the MEL, signs off in the
Technician block, and ensures the entry has been made in the
Flight Log Deferral Index.
9) The technician enters the discrepancy in the computer tracking
system. See “M.E.L. computer entry”.

Any time Maintenance Control issues a Ticket Number for a deferral per
M.E.L. which has operational conditions or limitations, the Maintenance
Controller shall verbally inform Dispatch of the restrictions. This verbal
communication serves as a backup to the normal computerized tracking
and notification system.

INTRO-10

Introduction
Rev. 17 Date: 04-30-08

The Dispatcher is responsible to assure that any limitations imposed by


M.E.L item, or combination of M.E.L. items are not contradictory to
FAR’s, company policy or aircraft operating procedures.

7. M.E.L. Computer Entry

Chautauqua Airlines utilizes two computer systems for tracking and up-
dating MEL entries. Each computer system serves a unique function.
The Bornemann system, primarily used to dispatch flights, is utilized for
tracking the time requirements of MELs. The Aerosoft computer tracking
system serves a different role. It is used to record maintenance activity.
This information is later used by the reliability department, engineering,
and maintenance.

a.Upon signing off an MEL in the aircraft log, the technician is respon-
sible to update the computer tracking system.
b.If after troubleshooting a deferral is not cleared, the technician is
responsible to update the computer tracking system with any addi-
tional information. The original deferral discrepancy can be recalled
using the aircraft log page and item number. This information is
listed in the Flight Log Deferral Index.

8. Flight Log Deferral Index Form GMM-M105

A log of open deferrals are listed in the Flight Log Deferral Index. This is
a quick reference for the Flight Crew and Technician. The following de-
ferral types that may be found in the index and are discussed in this
manual are:

- M.E.L.

- C.D.L.

Open items remain in the index until they are cleared. When a deferred
index is filled up, it is removed and sent to records.
a. Completing Flight Log Deferred Index

1) Enter MEL/CDL number

2) Enter category of MEL (A, B, C, D or P)

3) Enter the date the MEL originated.

4) Enter the ticket number. The ticket number is an auto generated


number that originates in maintenance control. All MELs must
have a ticket number.

INTRO-11
EMB 135/145 Series MEL
Introduction
CHQ Rev. 14 Date: 09-01-06

5) Enter a brief discrepancy from the original log page entry and any
Maintenance function or corrective action, i.e. circuit breaker
pulled and collar installed.

6) Enter the log page number the MEL is generated on.

7) The full name and employee number of the person entering the
information into the deferral index.

8) The date the MEL is closed.

9) The log page the MEL entry is closed on.

10) The full name and employee number of the person closing the
item in the deferral index.

b. Transferring open items

It may be necessary to transfer open items to a new index before send-


ing to records. The following procedure is to be used.

1) Copy the open deferral information to a new index.

2) Close the deferral on the old index by stating “Transferred to new


Index” in the date closed column.

3) Send the old index to records.

9. Tracking and Closing Open M.E.L.’s

The technician deferring or troubleshooting the deferred item is respon-


sible for determining if parts are required and requesting those parts via
an electronic parts request. In the event contract maintenance is defer-
ring an item, Maintenance Control will be responsible to coordinate ad-
ditional troubleshooting and/or parts ordering in a timely fashion. The
Stores and Maintenance Control Departments communicate the loca-
tion and the estimated time of arrival of the required part. Upon the ar-
rival of the parts required, the Planning and Maintenance Control
Departments work to bring together the parts, maintenance personnel,
and the aircraft at a specific time and place to repair the deferred item.

When a deferred item has maintenance accomplished without closing


the deferral, the technician documents his/her actions in the aircraft log
book or on a Non-Routine, including the statement "Item Remains De-
ferred." The technician also enters this information in the computer
tracking system.

When the deferred item is repaired, the technician notifies Maintenance


Control and completes the required entries in the log book and the de-
ferred index. If an (M) function was performed at the time of the deferral
(such as a circuit breaker pulled and collar installed), ensure they are re-
set to normal configuration when closing the deferred item.

a. Log Book entry

When closing an MEL or CDL, and entry in the log book (GMM-101)
must be made. If the work was performed on a non-routine, the log
book entry should reference the non-routine for work performed. Below
is an example of clearing an MEL in the log book

b. Closing the deferral

After maintenance closes a deferral in the log book, maintenance con-


trol is notified. Maintenance control is responsible for closing the defer-
ral in the Bornemann computer system.The technician clearing the
deferral is responsible for clearing the deferral in the Aerosoft computer
system.

10. Extending the M.E.L. Repair Deadline

General

Chautauqua's intentions are to repair MEL/CDL Deferred Maintenance


Items within the time frame designated in the MEL. When circumstances
warrant that the repair deadlines be extended, Chautauqua has put into
place procedures that require each extension to be carefully evaluated.

NOTE: Category A and D items are not extendable.

a. Procedures for Authorizing Extensions to the MEL Deadlines

1) When MEL items cannot be repaired within the MEL repair time
limit and an extension is warranted, the Maintenance Control
Department initiates a MEL Repair Time Limit Extension, Form
GMM-M106.

INTRO-15
EMB 135/145 Series MEL
Introduction
CHQ Rev. 14 Date: 09-01-06

2) The Maintenance Control Department notifies and receives


approval from one of the following, or their delegates to authorize
the extension:

- Director of Maintenance

- Director of Quality Assurance and Engineering

3) Before the authorization is approved, the authorized individuals


must ensure that the extension is justified and the reason for the
extension is being resolved. The limit of the extension is deter-
mined at the time of the extension approval; however, the exten-
sion will be of the shortest duration possible needed to resolve the
reason for the extension.

Whenever Chautauqua personnel authorized to approve MEL time


limit extensions are not available in-house, this approval is obtained
by telephone. The person requesting the approval prints the full
name of the authorized person who approved the extension, the date
and time of the approval, followed by his/her signature. The person
approving the extension by telephone signs Form GMM-M106 upon
their return to the IND maintenance facility.

4) For each MEL extension Maintenance Control, ensures that the


following is accomplished:

a) Before flight, a copy of the extension is placed with the Aircraft


Flight/Maintenance Log, Form GMM-101.

b) A copy is forwarded to the Director of Production Control

c) A copy is forwarded to the Director of Quality Assurance and


Engineering.

d) A copy is forwarded to the local FAA FSDO within 24 hours.

e) Upon MEL extension termination, the date and time is com-


pleted on Form GMM-M106 and a copy is forwarded to the local
FAA FSDO and Director of Production Control.

f) The Production Control Department submits a summary report


of all extensions and the reason for those extensions to the local
FAA Flight Standards District Office. These reports will be sub-
mitted by the 10th day of the month following each quarter.

11. Non-Essential Equipment and Furnishings Program


NEF are those items installed on the aircraft as part of the original type
certification, supplemental type certificate, or other form of alteration
that have no effect on the safe operation of flight and would not be re-
quired by the applicable certification rules or operational rules. They are
those items that, if inoperative, damaged, or missing, have no effect on
the aircraft's ability to be operated safely under all operational condi-
tions.
a. General
Non-essential items may be installed in areas including, but not
limited to, the passenger compartment, flight deck area, service
areas, cargo areas, crew rest areas, lavatories, and galley areas.
NEF items are not items already identified in the MEL or CDL of
the applicable aircraft. They do not include items that are function-
ally required to meet the certification rule or for compliance with
any operational rule. The Chautauqua Airline’s NEF process does
not provide for deferral of items within serviceable limits identified
in the manufacturer's maintenance manual or operator's approved
maintenance program such as wear limits, fuel/hydraulic leak
rates, oil consumption, etc. These items may be tracked as part of
the Non-MEL process. Cosmetic items that are fully serviceable
but worn or soiled may be deferred under the NEF process.
By definition, NEF items do not affect the safe operation of an
aircraft. Due to the wide variance of these items, a complete list of
NEF items is not required to be maintained in the Chautauqua
Airline’s MEL. Chautauqua Airline’s maintains a list in a digital
spreadsheet on the company server in the maintenance folder.
An NEF program contained in the Chautauqua Airlines GMM
encompasses:
• An NEF list (or equivalent),
• A process for evaluating an item in accordance with NEF,
• Reporting procedures to the CHDO, and
• Repair and/or replacement policy and procedures.
b. NEF List
Chautauqua Airlines maintains a current list of acceptable NEF
items in a digital spreadsheet format. This list is maintained by the
Maintenance Control Department on the Chautauqua Airline’s
server in the maintenance folder and is reviewed by the Quality
Assurance Department to insure that each item is appropriate.
The list is available to all maintenance personnel, Federal Aviation
Administration personnel and the flight department. In the case of
limited access to the Chautauqua Airlines company servers, the
list may be sent digitally or via fax.

Introduction
Rev. 17 Date: 04-30-08

c. Deferral Policy
NEF items that are on the controlled NEF list and have been previ-
ously evaluated. New NEF items must be evaluated in accor-
dance with the procedures in the GMM.
12. Deferring CDL items
The purpose of the CDL (located in the back of this manual) is to ad-
dress items not listed in the MEL that may be removed from an aircraft.
The limitations to the aircraft, once an item is removed, will be listed on
the flight release similar to MEL’s.
Procedures used to defer an item listed in the CDL is identical to the pro-
cedures for deferring MEL items. CDL’s will be repaired within 120 consec-
utive calendar days (2,880 hours) excluding the calendar day the malfunction
was recorded in the Aircraft Flight/Maintenance Logbook.

13. Discrepancies After Departure


A flight is considered to have departed when the aircraft moves under
its own power (forward or backward).
After this time, a discrepancy that arises will be evaluated by the Flight
Crew as to whether to continue the flight or return for maintenance and/
or operational procedures set forth in the M.E.L. to be implemented.
When an item fails prior to take off, that is listed in the MEL as an "M"
item, the maintenance (M) procedure must be accomplished before take
off.
If the deferral item is annotated in the Flight Crew Operating Procedures
column that the (M) procedures may be performed by the flight crew and
the deferral procedures can be accomplished by the flight crew while
seated in the crew seats, a gate return is not required.
All other (M) procedures require a gate return for accomplishment.
Several things the Flight Crew will take into consideration when evalu-
ating the M.E.L. item are:
A. How the newly identified item may be affected by existing
M.E.L.'d items.
B. Evaluate flight conditions expected to be encountered during
this intended flight and how the identified item will affect the
safety of the flight.
C. Evaluate capabilities of the intended destination should the
identified item require deactivation procedures to be imple-
mented at the time of arrival.
Although a flight is considered to have departed as soon as the aircraft
moves under its own power, (forward or backward), SAFETY is the pre-
dominant factor at all times when considering Items A, B and C listed
above, as to whether the flight should be continued or terminated.

13. Inoperative components of an inoperative system:


Inoperative items which are components of a system which is inopera-
tive are usually considered components directly associated with and
having no other function than to support that system. (Warning/caution
systems associated with the inoperative system must be operative un-
less relief is specifically authorized per the MMEL).

14. "(M)"
symbol indicates a requirement for a specific maintenance procedure
which must be accomplished prior to operation with the listed item inop-
erative. Normally these procedures are accomplished by maintenance
personnel; however, other personnel may be qualified and authorized to
perform certain functions.

Maintenance Items that may be deferred by the flight crew under the di-
rection of Maintenance Control are identified in the specific MEL item
under the Crew Operating Procedures column for that item. If the Main-
tenance Item requires a Maintenance Action, a mechanic will be dis-
patched to complete the required Maintenance Action, unless that item
has been previously determined and approved that the crew member
may perform the deactivation procedure. The Flight Crew operating Pro-
cedures column will have the following statement for those Maintenance
Deactivation Procedures that may be performed by the flight crew: “This
deactivation procedure may be accomplished by the flight crew, under
direct, verbal communications with Maintenance Control”.

The satisfactory accomplishment of all maintenance procedures, re-


gardless of who performs them, is the responsibility of the operator. Ap-
propriate procedures are required to be published as part of the
operator's manual or MEL.

15. "(O)"
Symbol indicates a requirement for a specific operations procedure
which must be accomplished in planning for and/or operating with the
listed item inoperative. Normally these procedures are accomplished by
the flight crew; however, other personnel may be qualified and autho-
rized to perform certain functions. The satisfactory accomplishment of
all procedures, regardless of who performs them, is the responsibility of
the operator. Appropriate procedures are required to be published as a
part of the operator's manual or MEL.

16. "Deactivated" and "Secured"


means that the specified component must be put into an acceptable
condition for safe flight. An acceptable method of securing or deactivat-
ing will be established by the operator.

can be seen in natural or artificial light; for example, clouds, fog, rain,
sleet, hail, or snow.

20. Repair Intervals:


All users of an MEL approved under FAR 121, 125, 129 and 135 must
effect repairs of inoperative systems or components, deferred in accor-
dance with the MEL, at or prior to the repair times established by the fol-
lowing letter designators:
Category A. Items in this category shall be repaired within the
time interval specified in the remarks column of the operator's
approved MEL.
Category B. Items in this category shall be repaired within three
(3) consecutive calendar days (72 hours), excluding the day the

Category R is used for administrative tracking of airframes
that are not RVSM compliant. This category is outside the
realm of component based failures that are found within the
normal Category A, B, C, D, & P MEL items. If all the minimum
equipment for RVSM operations is functional, yet the air-
frame is not RVSM compliant, Category R will be utilized.
21. Electronic fault alerting system - General
The EMB-135LR/135KL(140)/145LR aircraft are equipped with Engine
Indicating and Crew Alerting Systems (EICAS) that provide three differ-
ent message levels: WARNING, CAUTION, and ADVISORY. Failures
that effect dispatchability are presented to the flight crew at one of these
levels. Other failures may be presented only to the maintenance person-
nel on the Multi Function Display (MFD) or through the download of the
Central Maintenance Computer (CMC) or the Full Authority Digital En-
gine Control (FADEC). System conditions that result only in a mainte-
nance level message, i.e. no correlation with a higher level EICAS
message, do not affect dispatch and do not require action other than as
addressed within an operator's standard maintenance program.
22. "Administrative control item"
means an item listed by the operator in the MEL for tracking and infor-
mational purposes. It may be added to an operator's MEL by approval
of the Principal Operations Inspector provided no relief is granted, or
provided conditions and limitations are contained in an approved docu-
ment (i.e. Structural Repair Manual, airworthiness directive, etc.). If re-
lief other than that granted by an approved document is sought for an
administrative control item, a request must be submitted to the Admin-
istrator. If the request results in review and approval by the FOEB, the
item becomes an MMEL item rather than an administrative control item.
All administrative control items will be annotated in Chautauqua’s MEL
with a 99 at the end of the Sys/Seq number. There is only one exception
to this numbering system. RVSM compliance will be tracked as ‘RVSM’
instead of an MEL item number.

23. “***” symbol


in Column 1 indicates an item which is not required by regulation but
which may have been installed on some models of aircraft covered by
this MMEL. This item may be included on the operator’s MEL after the
approving office has determined that the item has been installed on one
or more of the operator’s aircraft. The symbol, however, shall not be
carried forward into the operator’s MEL. It should be noted that neither
this policy nor the use of this symbol provide authority to install or re-
move an item from an aircraft.

24. "Excess Items"


means those items that have been installed that are redundant to the re-
quirements of the FARs.

25. "Day of Discovery"


is the calendar day an equipment/instrument malfunction was recorded
in the aircraft maintenance log and or record. This day is excluded from
the calendar days or flight days specified in the MMEL for the repair of
an inoperative item of equipment. This provision is applicable to all
MMEL items, i.e., categories "A, B, C, D, and P."

26. “Considered Inoperative”, as used in the provisos means that


item must be treated for dispatch, taxi and flight purposes as though it
were inoperative. The item shall not be used or operated until the orig-
inal deferred item is repaired. Additional actions include: documenting
the item on the dispatch release (if applicable), placarding, and comply-
ing with all remarks, exceptions, and related MMEL provisions, including
any (M) and (O) procedures and observing the repair category.

27. “Is not used”


in the provisos, remarks or exceptions for an MMEL item may specify
that another item relieved in the MMEL “is not used.” In such cases,
crewmembers should not activate, actuate, or otherwise utilize that
component or system under normal operations. It is not necessary for
the operators to accomplish the (M) procedures associated with the
item. However, operational requirements must be complied with, and
an additional placard must be affixed, to the extent practical, adjacent to
the control or indicator for the item that is not used to inform crewmem-
bers that a component or system is not to be used under normal opera-
tions.

28. RVSM or DRVSM


DRVSM (Domestic Reduced Vertical Separation Minimums) is a pro-
gram that enables vertical separation to be reduced between FL 290-
410 (inclusive) from 2,000 ft. to 1,000 ft.

By reducing vertical separation from 2,000 ft. to 1,000 ft., RVSM makes
six additional flight levels available for operations between FL 290-410.
It has been shown to:
• Enhance aircraft operating efficiency by making more fuel/time
efficient flight levels available.
• Enhance air traffic control flexibility.
• Provide the potential for enhanced enroute airspace capacity.

29. NEF
Nonessential equipment and furnishings (NEF) are those items installed
on the aircraft as part of the original certification, supplemental type cer-
tificate, or engineering order that have no effect on the safe operation of
flight and would not be required by the applicable certification rules or
operational rules. They are those items that if inoperative, damaged or
missing have no effect on the aircraft’s ability to be operated safely un-
der all operational conditions. These nonessential items may be in-
stalled in areas including, but not limited to, the passenger
compartment, flight deck area, service areas, cargo areas, crew rest ar-
eas, lavatories, and galley areas. NEF items are not items already iden-
tified in the MEL or CDL of the applicable aircraft. They do not include
items that are functionally required to meet the certification rule or for
compliance with any operational rule. Operator’s NEF process shall not
provide for deferral of items within serviceable limits identified in the
manufacture’s maintenance manual or operator’s approved mainte-
nance program such as wear limits, fuel/hydraulic leak rates, oil con-
sumption, etc. Cosmetic items that are fully serviceable but worn or
soiled may be deferred under an operator’s NEF process.

EMB 135/145 M.E.L. - Preamble


General

The following is applicable for authorized certificate holders operating


under Federal Aviation Regulations (FAR) Parts 121, 125, 129, 135:
The FAR require that all equipment installed on an aircraft in compliance
with the Airworthiness Standards and the Operating Rules must be op-
erative. However, the Rules also permit the publication of a Minimum
Equipment List (MEL) where compliance with certain equipment re-
quirements is not necessary in the interests of safety under all
operating conditions. Experience has shown that with the various levels
of redundancy designed into aircraft, operation of every system or in-
stalled component may not be necessary when the remaining operative
equipment can provide an acceptable level of safety. A Master Minimum
Equipment List (MMEL) is developed by the FAA, with participation by
the aviation industry, to improve aircraft utilization and thereby provide
more convenient and economic air transportation for the public. The
FAA approved MMEL includes those items of equipment related to air-
worthiness and operating regulations and other items of equipment
which the Administrator finds may be inoperative and yet maintain an
acceptable level of safety by appropriate conditions and limitations; it
does not contain obviously required items such as wings, flaps, and rud-
ders. The MMEL is the basis for development of individual operator
MELs which take into consideration the operator's particular aircraft
equipment configuration and operational conditions. Operator MELs, for
administrative control, may include items not contained in the MMEL;
however, relief for administrative control items must be approved by the
Administrator. An operator's MEL may differ in format from the MMEL,
but cannot be less restrictive than the MMEL. The individual operator's
MEL, when approved and authorized, permits operation of the aircraft
with inoperative equipment.

Equipment not required by the operation being conducted and equip-


ment in excess of FAR requirements are included in the MEL with ap-
propriate conditions and limitations. The MEL must not deviate from the
Aircraft Flight Manual Limitations, Emergency Procedures or with Air-
worthiness Directives. It is important to remember that all equipment re-
lated to the airworthiness and the operating regulations of the aircraft
not listed on the MMEL must be operative.

Suitable conditions and limitations in the form of placards, maintenance


procedures, crew operating procedures and other restrictions as neces-
sary are specified in the MEL to ensure that an acceptable level of
safety is maintained.

PRE- 1
EMB 135/145 Series MEL
General
REV. 17 DATE: 04-30-08

The MEL is intended to permit operation with inoperative items of equip-


ment for a period of time until repairs can be accomplished. It is impor-
tant that repairs be accomplished at the earliest opportunity. In order to
maintain an acceptable level of safety and reliability the MMEL estab-
lishes limitations on the duration of and conditions for operation with in-
operative equipment. The MEL provides for release of the aircraft for
flight with inoperative equipment. When an item of equipment is discov-
ered to be inoperative, it is reported by making an entry in the Aircraft
Maintenance Record/Logbook as prescribed by FAR. The item is then
either repaired or may be deferred per the MEL or other approved
means acceptable to the Administrator prior to further operation. MEL
conditions and limitations, do not relieve the operator from determining
that the aircraft is in condition for safe operation with items of equipment
inoperative.

When these requirements are met, an Airworthiness Release, Aircraft


Maintenance Record/Logbook entry, or other approved documentation
is issued as prescribed by FAR. Such documentation is required prior to
operation with any item of equipment inoperative.

Operators are responsible for exercising the necessary operational con-


trol to ensure that an acceptable level of safety is maintained. When op-
erating with multiple inoperative items, the interrelationships between
those items and the effect on aircraft operation and crew workload will
be considered.

Operators are to establish a controlled and sound repair program includ-


ing the parts, personnel, facilities, procedures, and schedules to ensure
timely repair.

WHEN USING THE MEL, COMPLIANCE WITH THE STATED INTENT


OF THE PREAMBLE, DEFINITIONS, AND THE CONDITIONS AND
LIMITATIONS SPECIFIED IN THE MEL IS REQUIRED.

Takeoff procedure:
Since Go-Around buttons cannot be
used, pilots must perform the Takeoff
Submode manually using the Touch
Control Steering Button (TCS).

Selecting just a lateral mode (HDG or


NAV) will activate the basic vertical
mode (PIT). At rotation, keep the TCS
button pressed to command pitch atti-
tude of 14 degrees (for flaps at 9
degrees), 13 degrees (for flaps at 18
degrees), or 12 degrees (for flaps at 22
degrees). Once the pitch value is
reached, the TCS button must be
released and the Flight Director will
maintain the set pitch until a new verti-
cal mode is selected.

While keeping the TCS button pressed,


pilots will command a pitch attitude for
an airspeed around VGA9. Once a posi-
tive rate of climb has been achieved,
pilots will set a pitch of 10 degrees nose
up and release the TCS button. This
constant pitch attitude must be main-
tained for at least 20 seconds. After
that, the IAS Speed Hold must be
selected following the go-around speed
preselected on the airspeed bug with
limitation at VGA9.

A. FUEL MEASURING STICK


Two measuring stick under each wing permits to check the fuel
quantity in the tanks. Each measuring stick provides visual indica-
tion of the total fuel quantity of the associated side.

Note: The 145LR/LU, EMB-135 LR, ERJ-140 and EMB-145XR


models has two additional measuring sticks, one for
each tank, under the wing stub.

The table below provides minimum and maximum stick values:

MEASURING STICK TABLES


To determine the fuel quantity, the airplane must be laterally leveled with
roll and pitch angles between 0° to -2°. After refueling the airplane, start at
the external measuring stick, closer to the wing tip. For airplanes without
wing stub tank, between 1503 and 2131 liters (397 and 563 US gal), the
external measuring stick provides a correct fuel level indication. Above
2131 liters (563 US gal), it is not possible to measure the fuel level
through the measuring sticks. If the external measuring stick provides a
zero indication, use the internal measuring stick to obtain the fuel level. It
is also not possible to measure the fuel level through the measuring
sticks, if it is below 448 liters (118 US gal).

For airplanes with wing stub tank, between 2163 and 2791 liters (571 and
737 US gal) the external measuring stick provides a correct fuel level indi-
cation. Above 2791 liters (737 US gal), it is not possible to measure the
fuel level through the sticks. If the external measuring stick provides a
zero indication, use the internal measuring stick to obtain the fuel level.
Between 781 and 2168 liters (206 and 573 US gal) the internal measuring
stick provides a correct fuel level indication. If the internal measuring stick
provides a zero indication, use the wing stub stick to obtain the fuel level.
It is also not possible to measure the fuel level through the measuring
sticks, if it is below 7 liters (2 US gal).

Enter the measuring stick tables with the value read on the stick to obtain
the fuel quantity (liters or US gallons). To find the fuel mass in Kg (lb) mul-
tiply the volume in liters (US gal) by the actual fuel density in Kg/l (lb/US
gal).

NOTE: Do not add measuring sticks values.

Oxygen Pressure Correction Chart

An Oxygen Pressure Correction Chart is located on the oxygen


service panel door. This chart is provided for the maintenance per-
sonnel's use when recharging the oxygen cylinder. Additionally, it
may be used by the crew to check if the oxygen cylinder’s pres-
sure is above the minimum oxygen pressure for dispatch.

To use the chart for recharging purposes:


Enter the chart with the cylinder compartment temperature (cock-
pit temperature) and go vertically up to the desired pressure at
21°C. From the intersection point, trace to the left to read the indi-
cated gauge pressure to be attained.

To use the chart for dispatching purposes:


Enter the chart simultaneously with the cylinder compartment tem-
perature (cockpit temperature) and indicated gauge oxygen pres-
sure (on MFD or oxygen service panel). The intersection
determines the oxygen cylinder’s equivalent pressure at 21°C, by
interpolating the two adjacent standard curves.

EXAMPLE
Associated condition:
− Crew............................................................PILOT, COPILOT
AND OBSERVER
− Indicated gauge pressure............................1600 PSI
− Cylinder compartment temperature............30°C
As the intersection is above the dashed line for the associated
condition, the airplane may be dispatched.

as a result of shifting under operational loads. Sharp edges like wooden
or metallic containers, or dense cargo which weighs significantly more
than typical passenger baggage, must be placed under the cargo restraint
net to prevent shifting, even at weights lower than 2182 lbs.

Quick Turn Around Weight
For normal operation, the brake temperature can be monitored
through the brake temperature indication on the MFD.

The Quick Turn Around Weight Table must be used only when the
brake temperature indication is not working properly.

If the landing weight exceeds the Quick Turn Around Weight, a


subsequent takeoff must not be performed before 36 minutes
after chocks on.

At the end of this time interval, check that the wheel thermal plugs
have not melted.
Note: If the tires are not flat after 36 minutes this is a
positive indication that the wheel thermal plugs have
not melted.

24-31-01 (-1) Engine Driven Generators

Identify and secure the faulty generator


These procedures are to help maintenance to identify the faulty genera-
tor, that carries all loads and avoid dispatch the airplane with the good
generator (zero load) inoperative.

The following maintenance procedures should be accomplished only if


flight crew reports a continuous contactor switching noise with an unusual
generating indication and no associated EICAS message. In this case,
the faulty generator is absorbing all the load while operating in parallel
with others in good condition. In this condition, the voltage and current
indication on MFD Electrical page of the faulty generator indicates that it
is carrying all loads, while the voltage and current indication on MFD
Electrical page of the good generator indicates zero load. In this failure
mode, the unloaded generator remains connected to the DC Bus. Its line
contactor cycles and there is no GEN OFF BUS message. In order to
identify the faulty generator, proceed as follows:

- BUS TIES Switch.............................................................................OFF


- All GEN Button...................................................................................ON
- Voltage and Current (All Generators - on MFD)...........................CHECK

If there is any generator carrying all of the load:

- Affected GEN Button........................................................................OFF


- BUS TIES Switch...............................................................................ON
- Voltage and Current (Remaining 3 Generators - on MFD)...........CHECK

If the 3 remaining generators are operating normally, disconnect the


affected generator of the respective DC Bus by releasing its button on the
Electric System Panel.

will align the hole in the ICU housing with the hole in the inhibition
lever
- Install the quick release pin to the aligned holes, and make sure
that the inhibition lever contacts the ICU microswitch.

WARNING: When a reverser is locked out, the corresponding ICU


must also be inhibited. Also it is very important that the
inhibition bolts be installed to the upper and lower doors
of the affected reverser and that the corresponding ICU
be in the “INHIBITED” position

for communications between persons on the ramp
and in the cockpit

- Do the normal engine start procedure (Flight Crew), and tell the ground
crew (Maintenance) to turn the SCV manual override control to the
OPEN position and hold it
- When the engine N2 comes to the idle value, release the SCV manual
control. The valve will come back to the CLOSED position automatically
- Close access door 413AB/423AB accordingly

CONFIGURATION DEVIATION LIST

GENERAL LIMITATIONS
This Configuration Deviation List contains additional certificate limitations
for operation of the EMB-135/145 series aircraft without certain secondary
airframe and engine parts as listed herein. When the airplane is operated
using the CDL, it must be operated in accordance with the limitations
specified in the POH, as amended in the CDL. All the items which are
related to the airworthiness of the airplane and not included on the list are
automatically required.

The associated limitations must be listed on a placard affixed in the cock-


pit in clear view of the pilots and other appropriate crewmember(s). The
pilot in command must be notified of each operation with a missing part(s)
by listing the missing part(s) in the flight or dispatch release. The operator
will list in the airplane logbook an appropriate notation covering the miss-
ing part(s) on each flight.

If an additional part is lost, the airplane may not depart the airport at which
it landed following this event, until it complies with the limitation of the
CDL. This, of course, does not preclude the issuance of a ferry permit to
allow the airplane to be flown to a point where the necessary repairs or
replacement can be made.

No more than one part for any one system may be missing, unless spe-
cific combinations of parts are included in the CDL. Unless otherwise
specified, parts from different systems may be missing. The performance
penalties are cumulative, unless specifically designated penalties are
indicated for the combination of missing parts.

No more than three parts that have each been determined to cause negli-
gible performance degradation may be missing for takeoff without apply-
ing a performance penalty. When more than three such parts are missing,
a performance penalty of either 0.05 percent of the maximum takeoff
weight or 45 kilograms (100 pounds), whichever is less, must be applied
for takeoff, en route, and landing for each missing part.

CDL - 3
EMB 135/145 Series MEL
Configuration Deviation List - General
CHQ REV. 09 DATE: 11-15-03

No more than ten parts that have each been determined to cause no per-
formance penalty may be missing.

Takeoff performance penalties should be applied to the takeoff weights


that are limited by performance considerations (i.e., takeoff field length,
first, second, or final segment climb, or takeoff flight path). If the perfor-
mance-limited takeoff weight is greater than the maximum certified takeoff
weight, the takeoff performance penalties should be applied to the maxi-
mum certified takeoff weight to ensure compliance with the noise require-
ments.

Landing performance penalties should be applied to the landing weights


that are limited by performance considerations (i.e., landing field length,
landing climb, or approach climb). If the performance-limited landing
weight is greater than the maximum certified landing weight, the landing
performance penalties should be applied to the maximum certified land-
ing weight to ensure compliance with the noise requirements.

En route performance penalties apply only to operations that are limited


by the one-engine inoperative en route climb performance.

COMPONENT LOCATION
The numbering and designation of systems in this section are based on
ATA Spec. 100. The parts within each system are identified by their func-
tional description and, when necessary, by door or panel identification,
followed by the appropriate figure.

The access doors and panels in a zone are identified by an alphanumeric


system which has three digits. They identify the zone where the access
door or panel is located, followed by a two-letter or three-letter suffix.

CDL - 4
EMB 135/145 Series MEL
Configuration Deviation List - General
CHQ REV. 09 DATE: 11-15-03

− The first digit indicates a major zone of the airplane, which gives the
necessary reference for the identification of the service areas or com-
ponents:

MAJOR ZONE AREA

100 Lower fuselage (below the floor line)


200 Upper fuselage (above the floor line)
300 Tail cone and empennage group
400 Powerplant and nacelles
500 Left half-wing
600 Right half-wing
700 Landing gear wheel well doors
800 Doors (main, service, cargo, emergency)

− The following two digits indicates sub-zones. For example:

111 - Radome; 510 - Wing Leading Edge.

− The first letter identifies a sequence which starts with the letter A.

− The second letter shows the location of each access door or panel in
relation to the aircraft as follows:

B: Bottom T: Top
L: Left R: Right

− Each panel gets a fastener identification code, boxed, which identi-


fies the type and quantity of the fasteners for each panel.

L: Latch
S: Screw
C: Camloc

For further details on this system, please see Airplane Maintenance


Manual, Chapter 6, for the part identification.
