applicable, in order to ensure that all the continuing airworthiness activities including

new or amended regulations are in conflict with these procedures.

It is understood that the Transport Malta -Civil Aviation Directorate, hereinafter called TM-
CAD, as the competent authority will approve this organisation when the TM-CAD is satisfied
that the procedures are being followed. It is further understood that the TM-CAD reserves
the right to suspend, vary or revoke the M.A.Subpart G continuing airworthiness
management approval of the organisation, as applicable, if the TM-CAD has evidence that
procedures are not followed and the standards not upheld.

It is further understood that for commercial air transport operations the suspension or
revocation of the approval of the Part M Subpart G continuing airworthiness management
approval would invalidate the AOC.

In order to determine continued compliance with COMLUX MALTA's Subpart G approval the
TM-CAD is granted access to the facilities and aircraft of COMLUX MALTA's when so
desired.

0.4.4 Training Policy

The basic requirement for effective Continuing Airworthiness Management of aircraft,


engines and components is that the Part-M approved management organisation has
employees with detailed knowledge of the particular maintenance function or technique for
which it is rated, based on attending a factory school or long experience with the product or
technique involved.

In order to achieve this knowledge and experience, continuation training is provided to


ensure that Continuing Airworthiness Management staff remains current in terms of
procedures, human factors and technical knowledge and that the Part-M approved
management organisation receives feedback on the adequacy of its procedures.

Continuation training will cover:

 Changes in relevant requirements such as those contained in the relevant


airworthiness regulations and operational specifications (e.g. ETOPS);
 Significant changes in, but not limited to, organisation procedures and the
modification standard of the products being managed / operated;
 Instances where staff failed to follow procedures and the reasons why particular
procedures are not always followed;
 Reinforcing the need to follow existing procedures or the need to change a
procedure, in cases where staff can show the procedure to be incomplete or
incorrect.

Continuation training will be of sufficient duration in at least each 2-year period to achieve
the requirements above and may be split into a number of separate elements. The method
of training is intended to be a flexible process and may include aircraft-manufacturer-
provided familiarization courses, component or subsystem OEM product courses, internal
organized courses, competent authority (TM-CAD) and EASA seminars etc.

The CAM will maintain records of all training and courses. Copies of training/attendance
records and the associated certificates/statements will also be forwarded to the Quality
Manager.

AIRCRAFT TECHNICAL LOG AND MINIMUM EQUIPMENT LIST
Date 01-Aug-13

1.1.2 MEL Application

The Minimum Equipment List (MEL) is intended to permit aircraft operation with inoperative
items of equipment for a period of time until repairs can be accomplished. It is important that
the repairs are accomplished at the earliest opportunity in order to maintain an acceptable
level of safety and reliability. The operators MEL is established based on the TC/STC
holders approved Master Minimum Equipment List (MMEL), taking into account specific
aircraft definition and relevant operational and maintenance conditions. When an item of
equipment is discovered to be inoperative, it is to be reported by making an entry in the
Technical Log. The item is either repaired or may be deferred as per the MEL.

The COMLUX MALTA Operations Manual (OM-A chapter 8.6) provides guidelines to the
Flight Crew for the application of the MEL.

The MEL is laid out in 5 sections:


 A section to represent the system or components installed in the aircraft (standard
equipment).
 A section to represent the repair time code. The letters A, B, C or D specify the time
in which a rectification has to be conducted.
 A section to represent the minimum number of systems or components required for
dispatch from any station provided no other restriction applies.
 A section to represent the condition within which the limitation may be accepted. The
letters (O) in brackets specify an Operational Requirements and are used in
connection with the “Special Permission” procedure. The (M) in brackets specify a
Maintenance action is required before each flight or at the time of certificate for the
release to service.

Every effort shall be made by maintenance to reactivate an inoperative system or


component after a flight or as early as practicable, but not later than the time interval
specified by the letters A, B, C or D or as stated in the limitation section.

When a defect has been raised in the Aircraft Technical Logbook and it is within the
allowance specified in the MEL, then the defect may be deferred following the MEL
principals. Consideration should also be given by qualified maintenance personnel deferring
the defect, to the possible effect that multiple and related defects may have individual items
in the MEL.

On deferral of a defect an approved Part-145 maintenance organisation shall perform the


release to service principals in accordance with Engineering Procedure Manual and clearly
specify the due limit for defect rectification (hours/cycles/days). The deferred defect shall be
recorded on the Hold Item List.

Detailed guidance on completion/data entry and Release to service are described in the
Engineering Procedure Manual:

MANUAL SECTION TITLE


Engineering Procedure Manual Part - 1.1 Technical Log / Release-to-Service
Engineering Procedure Manual Part - 1.2 HOLD ITEM LIST

On development of an initial MEL or when the MMEL has been revised or the equipment of
the aircraft has changed or for any other reason causing the MEL to be revised, the PHFO
will ensure the MEL revision is issued within 90 days.
The PHFO will consult the aircraft TC/STC holder’s civil aviation authority publications (hard
copy or via internet) at intervals not exceeding 90 days and/or will check the aircraft
manufacturers publication revision to the MMEL has been published.

The PHFO submits the MEL and subsequent amendments for approval to the TM-CAD.
Upon approval of the MEL by the TM-CAD, the PHFO shall distribute the MEL revisions to
the aircraft and relevant departments. The MEL revision shall be on board of the aircraft
(hard copy or digital copy in EFB) within a maximum of 30 days.

Where a MEL item has been entered by maintenance personnel in the aircraft Technical
Logbook and HIL, the decision to accept the HIL item allowed by the MEL remains the
responsibility of the commander. This acceptance of any open/deferred items is indicated by
his signature in the area provided for the daily acceptance of the aircraft.

In the event that the MEL item cannot be cleared within the stipulated limit due to
circumstances which could not have been foreseen, then subject to review by the PHFO in
consultation with the CAM, the limitation may be extended. The TM-CAD must be notified
within 10 days of any extension.
The above procedure can only be used for a one-time extension of the rectification interval
B, C and D, and for the duration as specified in the MEL.

On extension of the MEL item a MEL Time Limit Overrun form, MLM-EPM-103 shall be
completed and submitted to the Part-145 organisation. The Part-145 organisation shall make
an entry in the Technical Logbook to justify the extension.

Detailed guidance on extension and completion of the form are described in the Engineering
Procedure Manual:

1.2 AIRCRAFT MAINTENANCE PROGRAMME

1.2.1 General

The purpose of the COMLUX MALTA Maintenance Programme is to provide maintenance


planning instructions necessary for the safe, airworthy and reliable operation of the aircraft
with respect to its specific use. The CMMS (Computerized Maintenance Management
Systems) systems are built up with the manufacturer’s Aircraft Maintenance Schedule data
in order that every maintenance task can be tracked (directly or by cross-reference) on the
requirement list. Refer to the specific COMLUX MALTA Maintenance Programme.

1.2.1.1 Maintenance Programme

In order to achieve a scope extension for managed aircraft, the Continuing Airworthiness
Manager has to create a maintenance programme. In this case the TM-CAD IAN 03 shall be
used as a guideline. In contrast to the serial-number related AMP, baseline maintenance
programmes are not subjected to approval by TM-CAD. Nevertheless the CAMO has to
forward each new baseline programme together with the revised CAME pages to TM-CAD
for evaluation. After successful evaluation, TM-CAD will approve the scope extension of the
CAMO through direct approval of the CAME.
Baseline maintenance programmes can subsequently be used as a basis for the aircraft
maintenance programme by incorporating the additional associated maintenance tasks.
Therefore the following paragraphs describe the procedures and important point for the
development of the AMP in this CAME in order to satisfy the competent for proper
accomplishment of an AMP. Once these procedures are approved by the TM-CAD, the
CAMO gets the privilege to approve their self-developed AMP. Nevertheless always the first
developed AMP of each type has to be forwarded to TM-CAD for approval. There after all
internal approved AMPs have to be forwarded to TM-CAD for notification.

1.8 DEFECT REPORT

1.8.1 Defect Report general

All defects occurring on COMLUX MALTA aircraft will be subject to review and analysis for
their effect upon airworthiness and the safe operation of the aircraft.
Any defect occurring on a COMLUX MALTA aircraft that results in an incident / occurrence,
as defined under “Directive 2003/42/EC and AMC 20-8 Occurrence Reporting, shall be
reported to the TM-CAD.
Occurrence reporting, including exactly what qualifies as a reportable occurrence, is fully
covered in Operations Manual A Chapter 11. All occurrence reports passed to the CAM
under this system will be analysed by the CAM. Reports that qualify as a mandatory
occurrence under AMC 20-8 will be sent to the TM-CAD in the specified time limit.
From the maintenance side, COMLUX MALTA ensures that occurrence reporting is fully
covered in the contract between COMLUX MALTA and the Part-145 contractor, which
contractor is also covered by the above Directive. In this case, the reporting system of the
Part-145 contractor will be used. Their report will also be sent to the TM-CAD by the CAM.
Reportable maintenance occurrences noted by the CAM / MM and not previously reported
by Flight Operations, the Part-145 organisation, or any other entity, will be reported by the
CAM directly to the TM-CAD within the prescribed 72 hours. The report will contain, as a
minimum, the following information:
 Organisation name
 Approval reference (if relevant)
 Information necessary to identify the aircraft or part affected.
 Date and time if relevant
 A written summary of the occurrence
 Any other specific information required

In addition, the Occurrence Report will be subject to review and analysis for its effect upon
the airworthiness and safe operation of the aircraft. The review process is triggered by the
occurrence and no fixed review times are specified. In the case of reports by the contracted
Part-145 maintenance organisation, its quality organisation initiates the review and the
results and recommendations are sent to COMLUX MALTA.
If required by AMC 20-8, the occurrence will also be reported to the relevant TC-holder.

1.8.2 Analysis

Technical Log pages are examined and analysed at regular intervals by COMLUX MALTA to
provide information concerning defects occurring, pireps, maintenance actions and defects
of a repetitive nature.

Maintenance records (work-packages) will also be reviewed for any significant findings that
may have airworthiness or operational implications.

DEFECT REPORTS
Date 01-Aug-13

The continuing airworthiness manager will assess and discuss the findings as necessary
with the contracted Part-145 maintenance organisation. Any required action is agreed before
implementation. Implementation may take the form of a Maintenance Programme
amendment, modification action, or other action

1.8.3 Liaison with Manufacturers and Regulatory Authorities

Where a defect report indicates that such a defect might occur on other aircraft, the
continuing airworthiness manager will ensure that this defect is reported to the relevant TC-
holder, and, if necessary, to the TC-holder’s certification authority. This report will be made
either directly by the continuing airworthiness manager, or else through the contracted Part-
145 maintenance.

1.8.4 Deferred Defect Policy

COMLUX MALTA will seek to ensure practices to lessen the number of open Deferred
Defects to a minimum. All open Deferred Defects will be monitored by the MM, in
consultation with the Part-145 maintenance organisation, and also by the CAM, to ensure
the earliest action and subsequent closure. All defects that are subject to deferral action will
be as per Minimum Equipment List and its guidelines for use, which are given in OM-A
Chapter 8.6. Defects such as cracks and structural defects that are not addressed in the
MEL or CDL, and are not covered by the SRM, may only be deferred after agreement with
the TC-holder that the defect is not a safety concern.
All deferred defects should be made known to the pilot/flight crew, whenever possible prior
to their arrival at the aircraft.
Deferred defects should be transferred on to worksheets at the next appropriate
maintenance check, and any deferred defect which is not rectified during the maintenance
check, should be re-entered on to a new deferred defect record sheet. The original date of
the defect should be retained.
The contracted Part-145 maintenance organisation should make a positive assessment of
potential deferred defects and consider potential hazards arising from the cumulative effect
of any combination of defects. If required, the contracted Part-145 organisation makes the
assessment together with the aircraft manufacturer. The contracted Part-145 organisation
shall obtain the agreement of COMLUX MALTA following this assessment.
When a Deferred Defect is raised, the MM will consult with the Part-145 maintenance
organisation with a view to arranging the earliest possible rectification action to be taken.
This will involve the pre-allocation of down time, spares, personnel, tooling etc. as
appropriate.
A Certificate of Release to Service will be issued in the Technical Log upon clearance of any
Deferred Defect.

1.8.5 Non Deferrable Defects Away from Home Base

Where defects occur that are not listed in the MEL then the following actions must be taken:

a) MCC and/or the Part-145 Maintenance organisation should be consulted with a view
to establishing the extent of the defect and the rectification action required.

b) MCC will ascertain if there is a suitably approved Part-145 organisation, with the
appropriate type ratings, in proximity to the AOG aircraft. Suitable action will be taken to
have the defect rectified, and duly certified by that organisation. In the case of Airbus/Boeing
aircraft, if a Part 66 engineer approved by the Part-145 organisation is on board the aircraft,
the engineer will check if the rectification is within the terms of his approval and whether he
has all the required spares and tools.

c) Where no suitably approved Part-145 maintenance organisation is available then


action will be taken to position a member of a contracted Part-145 maintenance
organisation’s certifying staff, together with the necessary spares, tooling and technical
publications to rectify and certify the defect.

Note: Where the rectification action exceeds the stipulated limits in the Maintenance
Contract then the agreement of the Continuing Airworthiness Manager must be sought
before any action is taken.

ENGINEERING ACTIVITY
Date 01-Aug-13

1.9 ENGINEERING ACTIVITY

COMLUX MALTA does not hold a Part-21 DOA and hence cannot itself approve any aircraft,
engine and component modifications and repairs.

In the context of this CAME, the term Engineering Activity mainly signifies the function of
managing the modifications and repairs to aircraft, engine and components when such
modifications and repairs’ documentation are not supplied by the aircraft manufacturer in the
form of manufacturers’ SBs, SRM, STC and other approved data. In this respect,
management of this function represents the act of establishing specifications of modifications
and repairs in conjunction with an approved Part-145 Maintenance Organisation and
communicating these specifications to contracted approved design organisations. The
approved design organisation will, in turn, supply the Operator or its contracted Part-145
Maintenance Organisation with the required approved modification or repair documentation.
When such approved modifications and repairs’ documentation are supplied to the Operator,
the Operator contracts their implementation to an approved Part-145 Maintenance
Organisation.

RELIABILITY PROGRAMMES
Date 01-Aug-13

1.10 RELIABILITY PROGRAMMES

1.10.1 General

Through the use of a reliability programme (Condition Monitoring) programme, the operator
provides performance surveillance of an entire fleet or a complete aircraft system. Reliability
monitoring is performed by using the CMMS (CAMP, FAME). Applicable reliability reports
are provided to TM-CAD on their request.

 Reports are used to confirm that the times established for hard time components are
correct or should be adjusted accordingly.
 Reports are used to show that the frequencies of On Condition checks are adequate
or need revision
 Reports provide data from which action on Condition Monitored items can be
determined
 The programme includes an effective data collection system with a method for
compiling and analysing maintenance experience data.
 The programme provides information upon which judgements as to the continued
safe and reliable condition of the airplane, engines, and components can be made.
 The various data inputs are sorted and analysed by the CAM. Items, tasks or
systems that appear to be a candidate for further examination are then selected and
summaries of potential problems are prepared and published in the form of reliability
reports.

The aircraft reliability monitoring programme provides a maintenance management


information and control system. The reliability programme as applied to COMLUX MALTA
aircraft is an essential element to assist the continuing airworthiness manager in the
decision-making process of controlling the aircraft maintenance programme and/or
adjustment of time limitations

1.10.2 Data Collection

The data collection is performed by the CMMS. For aircraft other than Airbus, COMLUX
MALTA submits on a monthly basis a Flight Time and Reliability Reporting Form to the
aircraft OEM.

The data selection includes:


 A/C Utilization
 Dispatch Reliability
 Unscheduled Removals

The CMMS data collection includes also all component removals compiled from the data in
the aircraft history reports of the specific model aircraft

should be established. The manufacturer’s walk-around guidance for each aircraft is
given on the next page.

 An inspection of the operator’s aircraft technical log to ensure that the intended flight
is not adversely affected by any outstanding defects or deferred defects which will
become due during the flight.

Additionally the following shall be checked:

1. A control that consumable fluids, gases etc. are at the correct level prior to the flight.
2. A control that all doors are securely fastened.
3. A control that control surface and landing gear locks, pitot/static covers, restraint
devices and engine/aperture blanks have been removed.
4. A control that all the aircraft’s external surfaces and engines are free from ice, snow,
sand, dust etc. and an assessment to confirm that, as the result of meteorological
conditions and de-icing/anti-icing fluids having been previously applied on it, there
are no fluid residues that could endanger flight safety. Alternatively to this pre-flight
assessment, when the type of aircraft and nature of operations allow for it, the build-
up of residues may be controlled through scheduled maintenance
inspections/cleanings identified in the approved maintenance programme.

Comlux Malta ltd operates different aircraft types and therefore walk around inspections
vary. The Pre-Flight Inspection Guide provides flight crew and maintenance staff, the
reference for each type of aircraft to conduct the walk around in accordance with the
approved manufacturer’s manuals such as the AFM, AOM and Aircraft Maintenance Manual
or approved Maintenance Programme. The Pre-Flight Inspection Guide is part of the
engineering procedure manual and kept on-board of the aircraft as part of the Aircraft
Technical Log.

1.11.3 Flight Crew PFI Training

For flights where a licensed engineer, with a type rating on the aircraft type, is not on board
the aircraft, the Flight Crew needs to have been trained and certified to perform the PFI. This
is carried out during the initial type-rating course at the certified Flight Training Organisation
or by a suitably-qualified Part-145 Maintenance Organisation. After the successful
completion of the PFI training, the pilot will be given an official training certificate by the Part-
145 organisation. On the basis of this certificate, the CAM or his delegate will issue a
certificate authorising the pilot to carry out the PFI. This certificate will state that it will remain
valid only as long as the pilot is authorised to operate COMLUX aircraft and as long the
recurrent training is carried out.
The PFI training will be reviewed 3 yearly through the Postholder Training who will then
organise training at a suitably-qualified Part-145 Organisation in conjunction of the CAM.
The completion of the training will be recorded with the training records of the individual crew
member. The expiry date of the pre-flight check training is also recorded electronically for
each individual crew member. Further guidance to Flight Crews on preparing the aircraft for
flight is contained in the Operations Manual B Chapter 2 Pre-Flight Checklists.
Pre-Flight training records are kept and archived by the Post Holder Training.

For detailed guidance of the pre-flight training certificate refer to Engineering procedure
manual:

1.11.5 Control of snow, ice, dust and sand contamination to an approved standard

The control of snow, ice, dust and sand contamination before flight is the responsibility of the
Pilot. He will take whatever steps he considers necessary to ensure the aircraft is free from
such contamination before flight. Further guidance and description on this subject is
contained in the Operations Manual Part A Chapter 8.2.4. COMLUX MALTA distributes
Ground De-Ice/Anti-Ice Quick Reference Guides for every aircraft type it operates which
provides necessary information to the flight and ground crew. Applicable Ground De-
Ice/Anti-Ice Quick Reference Guides are on board of each aircraft.
However, if the flight crew detects sand or dirt contamination during the PFI, they will consult
the Continuing Airworthiness Manager for further specific instructions

AIRCRAFT WEIGHING
Date 01-Aug-13

1.12 AIRCRAFT WEIGHING

1.12.1 General

Aircraft Weighing is performed by a suitably approved Part-145 maintenance organisation.


The continuing airworthiness manager will review the reports produced by that organisation.
The continuing airworthiness manager will maintain a record of each aircraft operated.

1.12.2 Weighing Periods

Re-weighing will be carried out at intervals not exceeding 4 years in accordance with EU
OPS 1.605. Outside the regular required intervals the aircraft requires to be weighed or
calculated:
 After a major structural inspection
 After major repairs that can result in a significant change in mass
 After major modifications that can result in a significant change in mass
 After complete repainting of an aircraft
 When the weight on CG cannot be determined in an arithmetical way
 Whenever the cumulative changes to the dry operating mass exceed +/- 0.5% of the
maximum landing mass or the cumulative change in CG position exceeds 0.5% of
the mean aerodynamic chord.

The effect of a modification or repair that does not change the BEM or CG significantly will
not require a re-weighing. In this case, the change to on the BEM and the CG will be
calculated, using a validated procedure.

1.12.3 Weighing Standards

Weighing is done by the contracted Part-145 maintenance organisation. This work is


performed in accordance with the standard published by the aircraft manufacturer.

1.12.4 Weight and Balance Report

The new weight and balance report will be implemented in the:


 Aircraft Weight & Balance Manual

The latest and actual weight report is carried on board the aircraft in the AFM under Weight
& Balance. A copy will be kept in the COMLUX MALTA airworthiness records. The
continuing airworthiness manager gets the copy after the weight report is finished by the
contracted Part-145 maintenance organisation. He will forward a copy to the Postholder
Flight Operations. The PHFO will calculate the aircraft new Basic Empty Mass (BEM) and
the new Centre of Gravity (CG). He will then review the Operation Manuals and inform the
respective crews accordingly. Please refer also to Operations Manual Part A Chapter 8.1.8
and Operations Manual Part B Chapter 6

MAINTENANCE FLIGHT CHECK PROCEDURE
Date 01-Aug-13

1.13 MAINTENANCE FLIGHT CHECK PROCEDURE

1.13.1 General

As a result of certain maintenance tasks the applicable maintenance instructions may


require the aircraft to be checked in flight. A check flight may also be considered when
system functioning or flight characteristics can’t be satisfactory tested with the aircraft on the
ground. Complex modifications may also require the aircraft being checked during flight as to
ensure non-interference and proper functioning of affected systems.

1.13.2 Procedure

It is to be ensured that all applicable maintenance instructions have been followed in order to
validate a proper CRS of the aircraft, before the check flight.
If a check flight is to be considered and agreed upon an entry in the ATL needs to be made
as to prepare the aircraft for the intended flight. The “Action Taken” column must state that
the aircraft has been prepared in accordance with the applicable maintenance instructions.
Outstanding deferred defects must be reviewed to ensure no adverse effect from these open
defects during the check flight.
A flight pattern, with the appropriate aircraft configuration (flaps, landing gear, power
settings, etc.) and test conditions, needs to be drawn-up in conjunction with the chief pilot.
After accomplishment of the check flight, an entry in the ATL needs to be made by the flight
crew as to state” check flight carried out” with either “nil defects” or “defects raised”. The
Fleet Engineering Manager shall ensure that the check flight protocol with reported
observations is filed after accomplishment of the check flight.
A check flight shall only be conducted with the minimum required flight crew and technical
observers or maintenance personnel authorized to perform an active function related to the
check flight.

1.13.3 Authorisation

Check flights may only take place after authorisation given by the continuing airworthiness
manager or his deputy. The authorisation shall state the purpose of the check flight
(maintenance check, systems investigation, modification, etc.) and the names and functions
of maintenance personnel/observers required to be on-board. The continuing airworthiness
manager shall have consulted the Postholder Flight Operations before the release of his
authorisation.

Detailed guidance on issue of the authorisation and form can be found in the Engineering
Procedure Manual as follows:

2.1.3 Compliance Monitoring Audit Procedure

The primary purpose of the audit(s) will be to observe, in an objective fashion, a particular
event/action/document etc. in order to verify whether established operational and continuing
airworthiness procedures and requirements are followed during the accomplishment of that
event. This is with a view to ensuring that the required standard is being achieved.
Every audit is undertaken by a compliance monitoring auditor as part of the overall audit plan
and will be the subject of an audit report. Before distribution, the preliminary conclusions will
be advised to the person(s) in charge of the areas subject to audit (see Audit Procedure
below).
The compliance monitoring auditor and the persons responsible for the areas/subjects
audited will determine and agree together the corrective actions to be taken. This will also
define the time allowed for corrective actions to be implemented. The corrective action
should be determined taking into account the root cause of the finding, such that the
corrective action may be carried out in a fashion that will prevent possible re-occurrence of
the finding.

The audit reports are distributed to the following persons:


a) The person responsible for the audited areas/department
b) The Accountable Manager of Comlux Malta
c) The Continuing Airworthiness Manager.
d) The Part-145 maintenance organisation (if applicable).
e) The Compliance Monitoring Manager of Comlux Malta

The Part-145 maintenance organisation will be responsible to initiate corrective actions for
any recorded findings that affect the contracted Part-145 maintenance organization.

2.1.3.1 Audits

Qualification of Auditors
• Hold a certificate of a Compliance Monitoring Auditing course
• Independent person who does not hold a Postholder function within the company

Date 01-Aug-13

3.1 CONTRACTED MAINTENANCE

3.1.1 General

This Part Three of the CAME describes the contracted maintenance arrangements of
COMLUX MALTA. It includes details of these arrangements, together with the division of
responsibility for these arrangements, between COMLUX MALTA and the contracted Part-
145 maintenance organization, together with copies of the Maintenance Contracts in force
for aircraft Base and Line maintenance as appropriate.

3.1.1.1 Engine Off-wing Maintenance

This paragraph is currently not applicable to COMLUX MALTA as no scheduled Off-Wing


maintenance is foreseen/planned in the near future. In the event of required unscheduled
Off-Wing maintenance, a work order will be issued to the selected Part-145 organisation
performing the Off-Wing engine maintenance. This work order will be issued through the
contracted Part-145 Aircraft Base maintenance contractor.

3.1.1.2 Component Maintenance

Component maintenance as required is organized by COMLUX MALTA directly with


appropriately-approved organisations or by the contracted Part-145 maintenance
organization. COMLUX MALTA remains responsible for ensuring that all component
maintenance is performed by Part-145 approved organisations and i.a.w. the approved
standard.

MAINTENANCE CONTRACTOR SELECTION PROCEDURE
Date 01-Aug-13

3.2 MAINTENANCE CONTRACTOR SELECTION PROCEDURE

3.2.1 Selection Procedure

Prior to selecting a Base or Line Maintenance Organisation, COMLUX MALTA takes the
following criteria into account:

 Location: The maintenance organisation’s location/facility should be within the


general area of the aircraft’s operations.
 Recognized by the aircraft manufacturer: For base maintenance, the maintenance
organisation is preferably an aircraft manufacturer approved service facility.
 Industry reputation: The maintenance organisation’s industry reputation is
outstanding especially with regards to capability, quality and stability.

Before any contract is signed with a maintenance organisation, the COMLUX MALTA CAM
will verify that:

A. The maintenance organisation is appropriately approved in accordance with Part-


145. For this reason, the proposed maintenance organisation provides if requested
the COMLUX MALTA CAM copies of the certificates issued by the competent
authority reflecting the authority’s approval for the proposed work.

B. The maintenance organisation has the necessary qualified manpower, facilities,


tooling, technical documentation etc., available. This verification takes into account
any engine or component maintenance capability that may be required (though this
may be available through sub-contract to other suitably approved Part-145
maintenance organizations)

For this reason, the proposed maintenance organisation provides if requested the COMLUX
MALTA CAM an organisation overview which includes but is not limited to: Certifying staff,
management/administrative staff, proof of special tooling availability for the intended
maintenance, technical documentation subscriptions, arrangements with aircraft
manufactures and any arrangements made with sub-contracted Part-145 maintenance
organizations.

C. It will be confirmed that the maintenance organisation has adequate capacity to


undertake the proposed maintenance support. Where this includes aspects of the
continuing airworthiness management then experience will also be criteria to be
considered. The maintenance organisation will fulfil the maintenance support
activities specified in the maintenance contract by providing the maintenance
organisation’s signature on the final maintenance contract. In the event the
maintenance organisation will, for whatever reason, not be able to provide the
specified maintenance support, the COMLUX MALTA CAM shall immediately be
notified and the contract will be reviewed and/or terminated.

MAINTENANCE CONTRACTOR SELECTION PROCEDURE
Date 01-Aug-13

D. The draft Maintenance Contract will be reviewed and agreed by both parties with a
view to ensuring that each has the ability to discharge their responsibilities with
respect to Part M. For this reason a meeting will be held between the maintenance
organisation’s technical personnel and the COMLUX MALTA CAM after the draft
contract is established. The draft contract review ensures that the contract is
comprehensive and that no gaps or unclear areas in regards to responsibility and
terms remain.

E. The terms of the contract are agreed and the functional responsibilities are clearly
identified. With the signatures of the contracting parties on the final maintenance
support contract, the parties agree that all functional responsibilities are clearly
identified, upheld and that the terms set therein are accepted and followed.

3.2.2 Advising the TM-CAD of changes to the Maintenance Support

The TM-CAD assigned Inspector will be advised of any proposed continuing airworthiness
management arrangements in writing giving the notice required by Part M Subpart G.

Changes to the nominated Maintenance Contractor will be advised to TM-CAD.

Such changes include but are not limited to:

 Name and Location of the maintenance organisation.


 Changes in the approval affecting the contracted maintenance support.
 Persons specified in the maintenance organisation MOE.
