We regularly review our commitment to Safety and Security in order to keep it front and center in our
business. As Avatar leaders we commit to maintaining the highest level of safety and security for our
customers and providing a safe work environment for all Avatar employees, We are committed to continuous
improvement in the Avatar operation by evaluating, investigating, analyzing, assessing and mitigating
hazards on a continuous basis. Safety and Security of the Avatar operation are priority #1.
To ensure this happens, we recognize that an effective Safety Management System (SMS) is vital to the
success of Avatar Airlines. We are committed to providing the necessary resources for the continual
implementation of our SMS; 14 CFR 5.21(a)(3). This will allow us to continue to improve the level of safety
and security throughout Avatar Airlines. The Avatar Director of Safety has authority to facilitate and manage
the Avatar Safety Management System.
Safety objectives will be established, published and made available to all Avatar employees. The safety
objectives will be posted on the Avatar Intranet, accessible to all employees. Safety objectives will be a
continuous focus as they are monitored, measured, and tracked to ensure that we meet these objectives.
We believe responding to an emergency is the highest priority of management and employees. The
Emergency Response Plan (ERP) serves as an overall policy and set of procedures to ensure that the
airline's response to a catastrophic event is expeditious, intelligent and compassionate. We periodically
exercise the plan to ensure the plan continues to provide a safe transition from normal to emergency
operations, 14 CFR 5.21(a)(6).
We will not tolerate intentional at-risk actions or behaviors at Avatar Airlines. All employees are personally
responsible and accountable for performing their duties safely and in compliance with laws, regulations and
company policy. Activities involving disregard of these items will be subject to disciplinary action. We believe
this is a necessary element of a Just Culture, 14 CFR 5.21(a)(5).
Every employee must continuously be aware of hazards that have the potential to degrade the level of
safety and security for our employees and our passengers. It is the duty of all employees to report hazards
either directly to management or through reporting tools available to Avatar employees, 14 CFR 5.21(a)(4).
At Avatar, no one will allow any operation to proceed unless he or she is certain it can be carried out
with Safety and Security. To support every Avatar employee in making the hard personal decisions
that this may require, no penalty or disciplinary action will be imposed on any employee who stops
an operation and brings what he or she genuinely views to be a safety or security concern to
management or a fellow employee.

e) Instruments and equipment that are either specifically or otherwise required by the airworthiness
requirements under which the airplane is type certificated and which are essential for safe operations
under all operating conditions as required by 14 CFR 121.303(d)(1), 14 CFR 121.303(d)(2), 14 CFR
121.628(b)(1),(3)).
f) Instruments and equipment required by an airworthiness directive to be in operable condition unless
the airworthiness directive provides otherwise (14 CFR 121.628(b)(2)).
2) Various controls are in place to ensure that MEL repetitive procedures are accomplished in accordance with
the requirements of the MEL and are recorded as being completed in the aircraft logbook as well as ensuring
that the applicable (O) and (M) procedures for MEL NAME/DESCRIPTIONs are properly complied with.
These controls include:
a) Specific (O) and (M) requirements contained in each MEL.
b) A detailed review of the AML and MEL NAME/DESCRIPTIONs by pilots prior to each flight in
accordance with procedures outlined in Flight Operations Manual (FOM) - Chapter 6.
c) Processes and procedures utilized by MOC are contained within MOCPM Chapter 04-08.
d) Any changes made to these controls and their possible impact are assessed through the manual
review process in accordance with procedures outlined in the Flight Management Guide and Master
Technical Publications Manual.
3) Various process measurements are in place to ensure that all MEL procedures are conducted in accordance
with Company requirements. These process measurements include:
a) FAA Surveillance Safety Attribute Inspection (SAI)
b) FAA Surveillance Element Performance Inspection (EPI)
c) Department of Defense (DOD) Audit Program
d) Safety Department Internal Audit Program
e) Safety Risk Management (SRM) Program (Safety Manual, Section 3)
f) Maintenance Safety and Compliance (MSC) Internal Audits (CASS Manual 03-00)
4) Modern transport aircraft provide extensive duplication in systems, components, instrumentation,
communication and structural elements. These are provided to ensure aircraft safety and reliability even after
failure of certain individual units or certain combinations of units. This manual contains a list of such NAME/
DESCRIPTIONs which will provide for the operation of the airplane with certain instruments and equipment
in an inoperable condition, while still preserving an acceptable level of safety (14 CFR 121.628(a)(3)(ii)).
5) The PREAMBLE to the FAA Master Minimum Equipment Lists (MMEL) explains the origin of the MEL, its
intended scope of applicability, the administrative safeguards with which it is expected to be used in day-to-
day use, etc. The FAA PREAMBLE is quoted below for the guidance of all concerned.
3 MEL PREAMBLE
1) The following is applicable for authorized certificate holders operating under Title 14 Code of Federal
Regulations (14 CFR) Parts 121, 125, 129, 135: 14 CFR require that all equipment installed on an aircraft in
compliance with the Airworthiness Standards and the Operating Rules must be operative. However, the
Rules also permit the publication of a Minimum Equipment List (MEL) where compliance with certain
equipment requirements 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
installed component may not be necessary when the remaining operative equipment can provide an
acceptable level of safety.
MINIMUM EQUIPMENT LIST 1.3
CHAPTER 1 - AIRWORTHINESS (AWR) PROCESS Revision: A

01-Apr-2021
2) 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 NAME/DESCRIPTIONs of equipment related to airworthiness
and operating regulations and other NAME/DESCRIPTIONs 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 NAME/DESCRIPTIONs such as wings, flaps, and rudders. 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 NAME/DESCRIPTIONs not contained in the MMEL; however, relief for administrative control NAME/
DESCRIPTIONs 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 equipment in excess of 14 CFR requirements are included in the MEL with
appropriate conditions and limitations. The MEL must not deviate from the Aircraft Flight Manual Limitations,
Emergency Procedures or with Airworthiness Directives. It is important to remember that all equipment related
to the airworthiness and the operating regulations of the aircraft not listed on the MMEL must be operative.
3) Suitable conditions and limitations in the form of placards, maintenance procedures, crew operating
procedures and other restrictions as necessary are specified in the MEL to ensure that an acceptable level of
safety is maintained.
4) The MEL is intended to permit operation with inoperative NAME/DESCRIPTIONs of equipment for a period of
time until repairs can be accomplished. Its important that repairs be accomplished at the earliest opportunity. In
order to maintain an acceptable level of safety and reliability the MMEL establishes limitations on the duration
of and conditions for operation with inoperative equipment.
5) The MEL provides for release of the aircraft for flight with inoperative equipment. When an NAME/
DESCRIPTION of equipment is discovered to be inoperative, it is reported by making an entry in the Aircraft
Maintenance Record/Logbook as prescribed by 14 CFR. The NAME/DESCRIPTION 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 NAME/DESCRIPTIONs 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 14 CFR. Such documentation is required prior to operation with any
NAME/DESCRIPTION of equipment inoperative.
6) Operators are responsible for exercising the necessary operational control to ensure that an acceptable level of
safety is maintained. When operating with multiple inoperative NAME/DESCRIPTIONs, the interrelationships
between those NAME/DESCRIPTIONs and the effect on aircraft operation and crew workload will be
considered. Operators are to establish a controlled and sound repair program including the parts, personnel,
facilities, procedures and schedules to ensure timely repair.
7) WHEN USING THE MEL, COMPLIANCE WITH THE STATED INTENT OF THE PREAMBLE, DEFINITIONS,
AND THE CONDITIONS AND LIMITATIONS SPECIFIED IN THE MEL IS REQUIRED.
MINIMUM EQUIPMENT LIST 1.4
CHAPTER 1 - AIRWORTHINESS (AWR) PROCESS Revision: A

4 POLICY
1) The Minimum Equipment Lists (MELs) are designed to provide coverage for individual failures. In the event
of multiple discrepancies, even though each in itself is permitted within the following pages, good judgment
must be exercised in determining necessary action prior to flight. Appropriate action must be taken to assure
that no secondary hazard can be introduced by an inoperative component.
2) Each inoperative NAME/DESCRIPTION must be placarded to inform and remind the crew members and
maintenance personnel of the equipment condition. Placard location will be specified in the MEL.
3) The Configuration Deviation Lists (CDLs) contained at the back of the various airplane sections of this
manual, provide FAA Approved Flight Manual limitations for operation without certain secondary airframe or
engine parts. No other airframe or engine parts are permitted to be missing unless authorized by the
appropriate Structural Repair Manual, etc.
4) Dispatch with a missing part per CDL imposes a number of FAA requirements in addition to those applicable
to MEL NAME/DESCRIPTIONs. These include special placarding, Dispatch notification to Captain by listing
the missing part(s) in the Dispatch Release, special airspeed limitations when the missing part requires
reduction of MMOVMO, etc. Refer to the General Limitations at the beginning of each CDL for details of
these requirements.
5) Nonessential Equipment and Furnishings (NEF) are those NAME/DESCRIPTIONs that, if inoperative,
damaged, or missing, have no effect on safety of flight under all operational conditions. NEF NAME/
DESCRIPTIONs are not NAME/DESCRIPTIONs already identified in the Master MEL or CDL of the
applicable aircraft. The NEF list is contained at the back of the MEL General Section.
a) Certain NEF NAME/DESCRIPTIONs containing (O) or (M) procedures may be maintained within the
aircraft specific MEL and are identified with the repair category NEF. These repair category NEF
NAME/DESCRIPTIONs are administratively and operationally considered MEL NAME/
DESCRIPTIONs, and follow the same policy and procedures as aircraft specific MEL NAME/
DESCRIPTIONs.
01-Apr-2021
2) MEL Effectivity
The provisions and limitations of the MEL are applicable for "Dispatch" of an aircraft. For the Avatar Airlines MEL
purposes, "Dispatch" is defined as the advancement of throttles for the purpose of taking off (takeoff event). If
the takeoff is aborted for any reason, the MEL provisions and limitations become applicable once again. If a
component or function becomes inoperative following the takeoff, the MEL does not apply.
3) MEL Notification/Coordination Requirements
When dispatching an aircraft under the authority of the MEL/CDL, it is important that proper coordination and
communication be established among the pilots and the affected personnel in Maintenance (Line Maintenance
and Maintenance Control, and in Flight Control Dispatcher (OCC). Refer to FOM 6.9 to ensure that all affected
personnel are in the communication loop.
4) Placarding Aircraft and Logbook Entry
A Logbook entry must be made per GMM/FOM anytime an aircraft is dispatched using MEL/CDL authority, and
the appropriate placard must be placed on or adjacent to the instrument, light unit, component, etc. of the aircraft
for each MEL/CDL NAME/DESCRIPTION that is inoperative. Placard location and text information is found in
the MEL/CDL placard table, which follows each NAME/DESCRIPTION in the respective MEL/CDL.
5) Publication and Distribution
The Director of Flight Operations is responsible the MEL and CDL. The document will be revised periodically to
reflect the latest approved changes to the MEL/CDL.
A revision to the MEL/CDL becomes effective on the date of approval by the Principal Operations Inspector
(Avatar Airlines - Flight Standards District Office). During the period that the revision is being processed for
publication and distribution, the revised MEL may be used for dispatch provided it is ensured that a copy of the
revised MEL page(s) is available to the affected aircraft (to be seen by the current and subNAME/
DESCRIPTIONuent pilots) and appropriate personnel, i.e., Dispatcher, Maintenance Controller, and Line/
Contract Maintenance.
The MEL/CDL will have a revision date below the page number in the upper corner of each page. This revision
date will correspond to the date located in the List of Effective Pages (LEP). The revision date on each page will
be the same as, or prior to, the date when the FAA approved the last revision. The MEL/CDL revision is effective
and considered current as of this date. Master LEPs with the FAA Approved stamp are reproduced in the MEL.
01-Apr-2021
An airplane operating with inoperable instruments or equipment in accordance with an approved Minimum
Equipment List, must be repaired within the time intervals specified for the categories of NAME/DESCRIPTIONs
listed in the operations specifications D095(b) 1 thru 4.
The following instruments and equipment may not be included in the Minimum Equipment List:
• Instruments and equipment that are either specifically or otherwise required by the airworthiness requirements
under which the airplane is type certificated and which are essential for safe operations under all operating
conditions.
• Instruments and equipment required by an airworthiness directive to be in operable condition unless the
airworthiness directive provides otherwise.
• Instruments and equipment required for specific operations by this part.
• Notwithstanding the information above, an airplane with inoperable instruments or equipment may be
operated under a special flight permit under 14 CFR 21.197 and 21.199 (see Avatar Airlines Non-Routine
Flight Operation [NRFO] process).
01-Apr-2021
14 CFR 121.563 states in part the pilot in command shall ensure that all mechanical irregularities occurring during
flight time are entered in the maintenance log of the airplane at the end of the flight time. 14 CFR 1 defines flight time
as when an aircraft moves under its own power for the purpose of flight and ends when the aircraft comes to rest
after landing. FAA Order 8900.1, Volume 4, Chapter 4, section 4-630 C as amended states in part with respect to
discrepancies discovered after blocking out: that the PIC should communicate with the dispatcher and maintenance
control if required. Avatar Airlines crewmembers will review the situation and determine whether the flight should 1)
return to the blocks for repairs (the failed equipment is a no-go NAME/DESCRIPTION) or 2) return to the blocks to
accomplish a (M) procedure specified in the MEL before continuing the flight or, 3) continue using the AOM alternate
procedure (AOM abnormal procedure) for operating with that failed NAME/DESCRIPTION.
If a discrepancy occurs in flight and the AOM abnormal/alternate procedures are accomplished, the captain should
contact the OCC/Maintenance Controller for their concurrence to continue the flight to the intended destination.

These boxes present options corresponding to different circumstances. In one instance, an A&P Mechanic may not be
onboard. In the other, Maintenance Control may not be immediately available.
When an aircraft discrepancy occurs before flight, if an A&PM is not available, CM makes the required log book entry
and contacts the MCOD in order to coordinate and effect repairs or deferral as appropriate. Under the direction of the
A&PM, or, if not available, the MCOD, CM reviews logbook discrepancies and plans a course of action to address them.
If resources are available to repair the discrepancy, CM accomplishes them, then makes the appropriate entries in the
maintenance logbook and/or other record(s) as directed by the A&PM or MCOD. If time, parts and manpower are not
available, and the Avatar Airlines A&PM is not available, CM coordinates repairs or obtains from the MCOD deferred
maintenance authorization in accordance with requirements described in Avatar Airlines approved MEL.

Once informed of a mechanical discrepancy, failure of a system component, a broken or missing aircraft part, the
Maintenance Controller On Duty (MCOD) analyzes the situation with the A&PM, CM and/or PIC, and plans an
appropriate course of action taking into account other discrepancies on that aircraft. Then, the MCOD makes
arrangements to affect the necessary repairs, or, if relief is available in the MEL (and the subNAME/DESCRIPTIONuent
action does not unsafely complicate the existing mechanical condition of the aircraft), issues the appropriate DMI and
directs or accomplishes record-keeping and notification procedures.In addition, the MCOD:
• Completes Form (OMD-101) and retains in the aircraft folder in the Maintenance Control Department until the
DMI is cleared. Once cleared the closed-out DMI record is forwarded by the MCOD to the Supervisor of Records.
• Enters DMI information into the Maintenance Information System (MIS) and retains a current printout of MIS

When an aircraft discrepancy occurs before flight, the A&PM or PIC contacts Avatar Airlines Maintenance Control
and the MCOD in order to coordinate and effect repairs or deferral as appropriate. The MCOD is responsible for
planning the appropriate course of action and directing the person performing maintenance in
accomplishing the work, then in making the required entries in the aircraft logbook, the DMI placard log, and
affixing the necessary placards adjacent to the affected equipment or cockpit instrument. The MCOD notifies the
Dispatcher On Duty (DOD) of the MEL action taken and the requirement to accomplish any (O) procedures.
• Completes Form (OMD-101) and retains in the aircraft folder in the Maintenance Control Department until the
DMI is cleared. Once cleared the closed-out DMI record is forwarded by the MCOD to the Supervisor of
Records.
• Enters DMI information into the Maintenance Database and retains a current printout of Database reports.
• Completes the DMI Master Log Form (OMD-100) for retention in Maintenance control. Updates the Master
Log when notified the DMI is cleared.
If it becomes necessary to operate the aircraft beyond the length of time provided for B and C MEL NAME/
DESCRIPTIONs, the MCOD prepares and submits a DMI/MEL Request for Extension Form (OMQ-203) to the
Director of Maintenance Operations. The Director of Maintenance Operations reviews the request, as well as the
availability of parts, manpower and equipment to accomplish the repair, and, if he concurs, submits the MEL/DMI
Extension Request Form to the Chief Maintenance Inspector (CMI). If the CMI concurs that the extension request
complies with the appropriate operations specifications, he may grant an extension of not more than the original time
provided for in the MEL. The CMI is responsible for notifying the CHDO within 24 hours after an extension is issued.
NOTE
1) Misuse of extension authority may result in the company
losing its authority to use an MEL.
2) A and D NAME/DESCRIPTIONs may not be extended.
Avatar Airlines CMI notifies the FAA Principal Maintenance Inspector (or his/her designee) within 24 hours of any
time extension approval. The PMI may deny the use of the continuing authorization if abuse is evident. Deferral
extension requests are accomplished using Form (OMQ-203).
Responsibilities:
• The Director of Maintenance Operations has the responsibility of bringing together the parts, maintenance
personnel and aircraft at a specific time and place to repair the deferred discrepancy.
• The Director of Maintenance Operations provides DMI extension reports for inclusion in the monthly CAS
reporting process.
• To reduce or eliminate future occurrences, the Chief Maintenance Inspector or his designee(s) review those
NAME/DESCRIPTIONs deferred that are caused by unavailability of parts, to ensure that a valid back-order
exists along with a firm delivery date.
• Requesting a Deferral Extension: As a requirement for Maintenance Control, any repair that cannot be made
within the time-limit specified in the MEL must be addressed as follows:
1) Notify the Director of Maintenance Operations:
• The Director of Maintenance must be notified no less than 24 hours prior to the terminating date of
the DMI. The extension request must be substantiated by the reason for requesting the extension,
and an affirmation that all efforts were made to complete the repair on time.
2) Prepare the Request Form:
MINIMUM EQUIPMENT LIST 1.17
CHAPTER 1 - AIRWORTHINESS (AWR) PROCESS Revision: A
avatar airlines
A
01-Apr-2021
• The Deferral Extension Request Form (OMQ-203) is prepared by the Manager of Maintenance
Control or his/her designee, approved and signed by the Director of Maintenance Operations, and then
submitted to the Chief Maintenance Inspector for approval.
• Upon receipt and approval of the extension request, the Chief Maintenance Inspector determines
whether or not the extension qualifies in accordance with authority granted in Avatar Airlines
Operations Specifications. Approval or denial of the extension request is noted directly on the request
form and transmitted by fax or E-mail to the MCOD.
3) Update Maintenance Records:
• The MCOD updates Operations Database with the new due date, if applicable, then notifies A&PM and
the DOD (who, in turn, notifies the PIC of the next flight departing aboard that aircraft).
4) File the Approved Extension Form:
• The original version of the Deferral Extension Request Form is retained in Avatar Airlines files for a
period of not less than twelve months. The MCOD is responsible for scanning the form (if not already in
a digital format), then E-mailing it to the Director of Maintenance Operations and the Chief
Maintenance Inspector.
• Required Information:
The following information is required to request a DMI extension. The Manager of Maintenance Control utilizes
this information to prepare the Deferral Extension Form OMQ-203 for approval by the Director of Maintenance
Operations and the Chief Maintenance Inspector.
• MEL number and aircraft Tail Number.
• Deferred NAME/DESCRIPTION Number and MEL Category.
• Date NAME/DESCRIPTION Deferred and Deferral Station
• Original MEL Due Date
• MEL NAME/DESCRIPTION (discrepancy)
• Reason for extension (justification)
• Employee name of person requesting extension
• Employee name of person approving extension
• New MEL due date.
• Criteria for Granting Extension:
The FAA reviews each extension to confirm justification, and may rescind or reject any that are
determined to be unjustified. The Director of Maintenance Operations and the Chief Maintenance Inspector
carefully review each request to determine the reason for any delay in repair, length of delay, number of NAME/
DESCRIPTIONs per aircraft and estimated date/time the NAME/DESCRIPTION will be repaired, so as to reduce
or eliminate future occurrences, and to ensure that malfunctioning systems or components which are deferred
per MEL (DDPG) are repaired as quickly as possible.

9 AIRWORTHINESS PROCEDURES
14 CFR 121.367(a), 121.367(c)
9.1 General
Except when a scheduled service is being performed, whenever a mechanical irregularity or discrepancy is
discovered by an airman, it is entered in the aircraft logbook (Form OMC-100).
• If the discrepancy occurs before flight the Avatar Airlines A&P Mechanic, contract mechanic, or captain (PIC),
makes the required log book entry, or causes the required log book entry to be made, immediately.
14 CFR Part 1 defines Flight Time as, “Pilot time that commences when an aircraft moves under its own power for
the purpose of flight and ends when the aircraft comes to rest after landing.”
• If a discrepancy occurs during flight — the PIC makes the entry upon termination of the flight.
• If the AOM has procedures for the particular discrepancy which allow for continuation of the flight, if there is
no conflict with existing MEL/CDL NAME/DESCRIPTIONs, and if the PIC determines that safety of flight is not
compromised, the flight may continue.
• If the AOM does not permit continuation of the flight, or if the PIC determines flight safety could be
compromised, the discrepancy must be entered in the maintenance log and required maintenance
accomplished.
• A new or amended release is required when the flight cannot be operated as originally planned.
Logbook entries describe in detail all discrepancies and the affected equipment. An entry should also provide such
information as to the stage of flight and aircraft configuration when the equipment or mechanical failure occurred, as
appropriate. Concise additional information can assist maintenance in identifying the problem. For further information
on Logbook procedures, refer to the GMM Chapter 2.
Every effort is made to affect repairs at the earliest opportunity, however, if the MEL provides relief for the
discrepancy, a flight is not delayed because repairs cannot be accomplished before the next scheduled departure.
Whenever a Avatar Airlines aircraft is operated in accordance with relief described in the MEL, the Director of
Maintenance is responsible for developing a plan for bringing together the required parts, maintenance personnel,
and aircraft at a specific time and place to accomplish timely repair with specific emphasis on material delivery
schedules and valid parts back-orders with firm delivery dates.
If an A&P Mechanic is available, he reviews the logbook discrepancy(ies) and plans an appropriate course of action.
If he has the resources available to repair the discrepancy, he does so and then makes the appropriate entries in the
maintenance logbook. If he cannot quickly resolve the discrepancy and/or if a DMI is required, the A&P Mechanic
contacts Maintenance Control for assistance.
If an A&P Mechanic is not available, the PIC or CM contacts Maintenance Control and the MCOD plans the
appropriate course of action. The person performing the maintenance makes the necessary entries in the aircraft
logbook, the DMI placard log, and affixes the necessary placards adjacent to the affected equipment or cockpit
instrument as directed by the MEL and the MCOD.
If MCOD elects to have the aircraft repaired, the repair is accomplished in accordance with procedures in the GMM.
The MCOD updates MIS and the DOD updates Flight Planning System, as appropriate.
NOTE
1) Misuse of extension authority may result in the company
losing its authority to use an MEL.
2) A and D NAME/DESCRIPTIONs may not be extended.

2) The MCOD records the following information on the Deferred Maintenance NAME/DESCRIPTION Form OMD-
101):
• The logbook page number on which the NAME/DESCRIPTION originally was reported (entered in the
appropriate block).
• The aircraft “N” number (entered in the appropriate block).
• The three-letter code for the station where the deferral is being made.
• The category of the deferred NAME/DESCRIPTION from the MEL after MEL #.
• The A&P number and the initials of the individual transferring the NAME/DESCRIPTION (entered in
the appropriate block).
• The date transferred to DMI (entered in the “Date” block).
• The MEL/CDL reference, as applicable.
• The description of the NAME/DESCRIPTION exactly as it was originally written.
3) Install the DMI placard and enter DMI number on the placard, separate the cover, and attach the placard as
close to the unit as possible in a place visible to the flight crew. If the failed unit or system is part of a multiple
system, ensure that additional NAME/DESCRIPTIONs are placarded as necessary. At stations where
maintenance personnel are not assigned, flight crews will enter NAME/DESCRIPTIONs deferred on the form
as directed by Maintenance Control, following the instructions listed above.
4) Prior to contacting Maintenance Control, the flight crew member should have in possession the current
logbook, and a copy of the MEL, which will aid in the accuracy of the process.
5) The “(M)” symbol indicates a requirement for a specific maintenance procedure, which must be accomplished
prior to operation with the listed NAME/DESCRIPTION inoperative. These procedures are accomplished by
maintenance personnel-or by flight crew members provided that no special training, knowledge, or tooling is
required.
6) The “(O)” symbol indicates a requirement for a specific operations procedure, which must be accomplished in
planning for and/or operating with the listed NAME/DESCRIPTION inoperative. These procedures are
accomplished by the flight crew.
7) When a DMI is cleared or transferred, the mechanic correcting the discrepancy completes the following steps
(Maintenance Log Form OMC-100):
• Enter the three-letter code for the station where the discrepancy is corrected in the appropriate block.
• Enter the date the discrepancy is corrected or transferred to the carryover in the “Date” block.
• Enter in the appropriate block the A&P number and the signature of the mechanic correcting or
transferring the NAME/DESCRIPTION.
• Enter in the appropriate block the description of the corrective action, including the authorizing
references.
• Remove the DMI placards.
• Remove the white copy from the book, fax to Maintenance control, and then forward the log page to

01-Apr-2021
The Maintenance Controller on duty (MCOD) is notified by the A&PM, CM or PIC of any open log book entries that
cannot be immediately resolved before flight. Additionally, Avatar Airlines policy prohibits deferring a maintenance
NAME/DESCRIPTION without the express authorization of the maintenance controller on duty. These steps serve as
controls to ensure that the MCOD is aware of mechanical discrepancies aboard Avatar Airlines aircraft and activates
the resources of the Operations control Center (OCC) (Maintenance Control and Dispatching) in support of a prompt
resolution assuring safety before further flight.
Any time a provider of Contract Maintenance (CM) is working on a Avatar Airlines aircraft he does so under the
direction of the MCOD and/or the direct supervision of the A&P Mechanic. These requirements serve as controls to
ensure that all work being performed by Contract Maintenance is properly certified and documented before further
flight.
The requirement for the MCOD to update the Maintenance Information System (MIS) and for the DOD to update
Flight Planning System serves as cross-checks and controls to ensure that deferred maintenance NAME/
DESCRIPTIONs are tracked and resolved quickly and effectively.
By virtue of updates obtained at the daily morning briefing, the Director of Maintenance Operations formulates and
communicates a plan for bringing together the required parts, maintenance personnel, and aircraft at a specific time
and place to accomplish timely repair with emphasis on material delivery schedules. This serves as a control to
ensure each DMI has a corresponding plan for clearing it: including valid parts orders, back-orders, where necessary,
and firm delivery dates.
The three step approval process for granting an MEL/DMI extension (from the MCOD to DMO to CMI) serves as a
redundant system of controls to ensure that extension authority is applied appropriately and not misused.

1. GENERAL
Definitions are used throughout this chapter and referenced in each MEL. Within these definitions are those intended to
clarify the abbreviations, acronyms and symbols within the MEL/CDL listings.
2 DEFINITIONS
Administrative Control NAME/DESCRIPTION (ACI) - An ACI is listed by the aircraft operator in the MEL for tracking
and informational purposes. As an example, ACI may be used to track ETOPS accomplishment of required APU cold-
soak, or in-flight verification starts. An ACI may be added to an aircraft operator’s MEL by approval of the POI provided
no relief is granted, or provided conditions and limitations are contained in an approved document (e.g., Structural
Repair Manual (SRM) or Airworthiness Directive (AD)). If relief other than that granted by an approved document is
sought for an ACI, a request must be submitted to the Administrator. If the request results in review and approval by the
FOEB, the NAME/DESCRIPTION becomes an MMEL NAME/DESCRIPTION rather than an ACI.
ATA System Page - The ATA system page is divided into six (6) columns (A thru F) and contains: NAME/
DESCRIPTION and repair category; number installed; number required for dispatch; and remarks or exceptions.
Standard ATA categories are used. NAME/DESCRIPTIONs are numbered NAME/DESCRIPTIONuentially.
1) NAME/DESCRIPTION. NAME/DESCRIPTION is the NAME/DESCRIPTIONuence number.
2) Name/Description. Name/Description depicts the equipment, system, component, or function.
3) Category. Category describes the time interval to repair MEL NAME/DESCRIPTIONs. See Repair Category
definition.
4) Number Installed. This column depicts the number (quantity) of instrument and equipment NAME/
DESCRIPTIONs normally installed in the aircraft. This number represents the aircraft configuration considered
in developing this MEL. Should the number be a variable (e.g., fleet configuration differences, cockpit lighting
NAME/DESCRIPTIONs, cabin lighting NAME/DESCRIPTIONs, cargo restraint components) a number is not
required and the “ ” symbol is used.
5) Number Required for Dispatch. This column depicts the minimum number (quantity) of instrument and
equipment NAME/DESCRIPTIONs required for operation provided the conditions specified in the “Remarks or
Exceptions” column are met. Where the MMEL shows a variable number required for dispatch, the MEL must
reflect the actual number required for dispatch or an alternate means of configuration control approved by the
Administrator.
6) Remarks or Exceptions. This column may include a statement(s) either prohibiting or permitting operation with
a specific number of instrument and equipment NAME/DESCRIPTIONs inoperative, provisos (conditions and
limitations) for such operation, and appropriate notes.
7) Provisos. Provisos are indicated by a number or a lower case letter in “Remarks or Exceptions”. Provisos are
conditions or limitations that must be complied with for operation with the listed instrument or equipment
NAME/DESCRIPTION inoperative.
8) Notes. Notes provide additional information for crewmember or maintenance consideration. Notes are used to
identify applicable material, which is intended to assist with compliance, but do not relieve the aircraft operator
of the responsibility for compliance with all applicable requirements. Additional notes may be amended,
deleted, or added to the MEL by the aircraft operator, as appropriate. Notes are not a part of the provisos.
9) Vertical Bar (change bar). A vertical bar Indicates a change, addition, or deletion in the adjacent text for the
current revision of that page only. All change bars applicable to the previous revision of the MEL are removed
prior to the release of the next revision.
Airplane Flight Manual (AFM) - The FAA approved AFM is the document approved by the responsible FAA Aircraft
Certification Office (ACO) during type certification. The approved flight manual for the specific aircraft is listed on the
applicable Type Certificate Data Sheet (TCDS). The approved flight manual is the source document for operational
limitations and performance parameters for an aircraft. The FAA requires an approved flight manual for aircraft type
certification.
Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) and Federal Aviation Regulations (FAR) - CFR, the current term, and FAR
both refer to the applicable portions of the Federal Aviation Act and Code of Federal Regulations.
MINIMUM EQUIPMENT LIST 2.2
CHAPTER 2 - FAA DEFINITIONS Revision: A

01-Apr-2021
Considered Inoperative - The phrase, “Considered Inoperative”, as used in the provisos, means that an instrument
and equipment NAME/DESCRIPTION must be treated for dispatch, taxi and flight purposes as though it were
inoperative. The NAME/DESCRIPTION will not be used or operated until the original deferred NAME/DESCRIPTION
is repaired. Additional actions include: documenting the NAME/DESCRIPTION on the dispatch release (if
applicable), placarding, and complying with all remarks, exceptions, and related MEL provisions, including any (M)
and (O) procedures and observing the repair category.
Continuing Authorization – Single Extension. An aircraft operator who has the authorization to use an FAA
approved MEL may also have the authority to use a continuing authorization to approve a single (one-time) extension
to the repair interval for category B or C NAME/DESCRIPTIONs in accordance with Operations Specification D095.
Continuing Authorization – Single Extension is not authorized for repair category A and D NAME/DESCRIPTIONs.
Dash (-) - Indicates a variable number (quantity) of the instrument and equipment NAME/DESCRIPTIONs may be
installed or required for dispatch. This is common when a fleet MEL is used since aircraft of the same make and
model may have differing numbers of specific instrument and/or equipment NAME/DESCRIPTIONs installed.
Day of Discovery - This is the calendar day an equipment/instrument malfunction was recorded in the aircraft
maintenance record/logbook. This day is excluded from the calendar days or flight days specified in the MEL for the
repair interval of an inoperative instrument and/or equipment NAME/DESCRIPTION. This provision is applicable to
all MEL NAME/DESCRIPTIONs; i.e., categories A, B, C, and D.
Deactivated and/or Secured - When the MEL refers to an instrument and/or equipment NAME/DESCRIPTION as
deactivated and/or secured, the specified component must be put into an acceptable condition for safe flight. An
acceptable method of deactivating and/or securing will be established by the aircraft operator.
Extended Range Operations (ER) - ER refers to extended range operations (ETOPS) of an airplane with
operational approval to conduct ETOPS in accordance with the applicable regulations.
Flight Day - A flight day is a 24 hour period (from midnight to midnight) using universal coordinated time (UTC),
during which at least one flight is initiated for the affected aircraft.
Heavy Maintenance Visit (HMV) - HMV is a scheduled C-check/D-check or airworthiness maintenance program
inspection where the aircraft is scheduled to be out of service for 4 or more days.
Icing Conditions - An atmospheric environment that may cause ice to form on the aircraft (structural) or in the
engine(s) (induction).
Inoperative - A system and/or component malfunction to the extent that it does not accomplish its intended purpose
and/or is not consistently functioning normally within its approved operating limit(s) and/or tolerance(s).
Inoperative Components of an Inoperative System - Inoperative instrument and equipment NAME/
DESCRIPTIONs, which are components of a system that is inoperative, 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 unless relief is specifically authorized per the MEL).
Is Not Used - The phrase “Is Not Used” in the provisos, remarks or exceptions for an MEL instrument or equipment
NAME/DESCRIPTION may specify that another NAME/DESCRIPTION in the MEL “is not used”. In such cases,
crewmembers must not activate, actuate, or otherwise utilize that NAME/DESCRIPTION under normal operations. It
is not necessary for aircraft operators to accomplish the (M) procedure(s) associated with the NAME/DESCRIPTION.
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 NAME/DESCRIPTION that is not used. This informs
crewmembers that an instrument or equipment NAME/DESCRIPTION is not to be used under normal operations.
Nonessential Equipment and Furnishings (NEF) - NEFs are those NAME/DESCRIPTIONs installed on the aircraft
as part of the original type certification, STC, or other form of alteration 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 NAME/
DESCRIPTIONs that, if inoperative, damaged, or missing, have no effect on the aircraft’s ability to be operated safely
under all operational conditions. NEF NAME/DESCRIPTIONs are not instrument and equipment NAME/
DESCRIPTIONs already identified in the MEL or CDL of the applicable aircraft. They do not include instrument and
equipment NAME/DESCRIPTIONs that are functionally required to meet the certification rule or for compliance with
any operational rule.
MINIMUM EQUIPMENT LIST 2.3
CHAPTER 2 - FAA DEFINITIONS Revision: A
avatar airlines

01-Apr-2021
Operative - An operative system and/or component will accomplish its intended purpose and is consistently functioning
normally within its design operating limit(s) and tolerance(s). When an MMEL NAME/DESCRIPTION specifies that an
NAME/DESCRIPTION of equipment must be operative, it does not mean that it’s operational status must be verified;
it’s to be considered operative unless reported or known to be malfunctioning. When an MMEL NAME/DESCRIPTION
specifies that an NAME/DESCRIPTION of equipment must be verified operative, it means that it must be checked and
confirmed operative at the interval(s) specified for that MMEL NAME/DESCRIPTION. When an MMEL NAME/
DESCRIPTION specifies that an NAME/DESCRIPTION of equipment must be verified but no interval is specified,
verification is required only at the time of deferral.
Other terminology sometimes used interchangeably with “operative” within the MMEL is “operates normally”, "fully
operative", and "considered operative”. The aircraft operator's MEL may incorporate standardized terminology of the
aircraft operator’s choice to specify that an NAME/DESCRIPTION of equipment must be operative, provided the aircraft
operator's MEL definitions indicate that the selected "operative" terminology means that the required NAME/
DESCRIPTION of equipment will accomplish its intended purpose and is consistently functioning normally within its
design operating limit(s) and tolerance(s).
Placarding - Each inoperative instrument or equipment NAME/DESCRIPTION must be placarded to inform and remind
the crewmembers and maintenance personnel of the NAME/DESCRIPTION condition. To the extent practical, placards
should be located adjacent to the control or indicator for the NAME/DESCRIPTION affected; however, unless otherwise
specified (i.e. AFM), placard wording and location will be determined by the aircraft operator. The MEL Sticker Location
column below each MEL NAME/DESCRIPTION depicts where the placard should be placed.
Repair Category - All users of an MEL approved under parts 91K, 121, 125, 129, 135 and 142 must effect repairs of
inoperative instrument and equipment NAME/DESCRIPTIONs, deferred in accordance with the MEL, at or prior to the
repair times established by the following letter designators:
1) Repair Category A. This category NAME/DESCRIPTION must be repaired within the time interval specified in
the “Remarks or Exceptions” column of the aircraft operator’s approved MEL. For time intervals specified in
“calendar days” or “flight days”, the day the malfunction was recorded in the aircraft maintenance record/
logbook is excluded. For all other time intervals (i.e., flights, flight legs, cycles, hors, etc.), repair tracking begins
at the point when the malfunction is deferred in accordance with the operator’s approved MEL.
2) Repair Category B. This category NAME/DESCRIPTION must be repaired within 3 consecutive calendar days
(72 hours) excluding the day the malfunction was recorded in the aircraft maintenance record/logbook. For
example, if it were recorded at 10 a.m. on January 26th, the 3 day interval would begin at midnight the 26th and
end at midnight the 29th.
3) Repair Category C. This category NAME/DESCRIPTION must be repaired within 10 consecutive calendar
days (240 hours) excluding the day the malfunction was recorded in the aircraft maintenance record/logbook.
For example, if it were recorded at 10 a.m. on January 26th, the 10 day interval would begin at midnight the
26th and end at midnight February 5th.
4) Repair Category D. This category NAME/DESCRIPTION must be repaired within 120 consecutive calendar
days (2880 hours) excluding the day the malfunction was recorded in the aircraft maintenance record/logbook.
Takeoff - Takeoff is the act of beginning a flight in which an aircraft is accelerated from a state of rest to that of flight. For
the purposes of MEL relief, this translates to the point at which the pilot physically begins to apply power for the purpose
of taking flight.
Visible Moisture - An atmospheric environment containing water, in any form, that can be seen in natural or artificial
light; for example, clouds, fog, rain, sleet, hail, or snow.
Visual Flight Rules (VFR) - VFR is as defined in 14 CFR Part 91. This precludes a pilot from filing an Instrument Flight
Rules (IFR) flight plan.
Visual Meteorological Conditions (VMC) - VMC means the atmospheric environment is such that would allow a flight
to proceed under the visual flight rules applicable to the flight. This does not preclude operating under Instrument Flight
Rules.
(M) - This symbol indicates a requirement for a specific maintenance procedure which must be accomplished prior to
operation with the listed NAME/DESCRIPTION inoperative. Normally, these procedures are accomplished by
maintenance personnel; however, other personnel may be qualified and authorized to perform certain functions.
Procedures requiring specialized knowledge or skill, or requiring the use of tools or test equipment, should be
accomplished by maintenance personnel. The satisfactory accomplishment of all maintenance procedures, regardless
of who performs them, is the responsibility of the aircraft operator. Appropriate procedures are required to be produced
as part of the aircraft operator’s manual or MEL.
MINIMUM EQUIPMENT LIST 2.4
CHAPTER 2 - FAA DEFINITIONS Revision: A
avatar airlines
A
01-Apr-2021
(O) - This symbol indicates a requirement for a specific operations procedure which must be accomplished in
planning for and/or operating with the listed NAME/DESCRIPTION inoperative. Normally, these procedures are
accomplished by the flightcrew; however, other personnel may be qualified and authorized to perform certain
functions. The satisfactory accomplishment of all procedures, regardless of who performs them, is the responsibility
of the aircraft operator. Appropriate procedures are required to be produced as a part of the aircraft operator’s
manual or MEL.
Electronic Fault Alerting System - New generation aircraft display system fault indications to the flight crew by use
of computerized display systems. Aircraft manufacturers incorporate individual design philosophies when
determining the data that is represented. The following are customized definitions (specific to each manufacturer) to
help determine the level of messages affecting the aircraft's dispatch status.
3 BOEING (747)
Boeing airplanes equipped with Engine Indicating and Crew Alerting Systems (EICAS) provide different priority levels
of system messages (WARNING, CAUTION, ADVISORY, STATUS and MAINTENANCE). Any messages that affect
airplane dispatch status will be displayed at a STATUS message level or higher. The absence of an EICAS STATUS
or higher level (WARNING, CAUTION, ADVISORY) indicates that the system/component is operating within its
approved operating limits or tolerances. System conditions that result only in a maintenance 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 aircraft operator’s standard maintenance program.
Fly Away Kit (FAK) – Sometimes called Spare Parts Kit (SPK), a Fly Away Kit is a National Airlines kit of tools,
supplies and spare parts placed on the aircraft. The content of the FAK is aircraft specific and is determined by the
Director of Maintenance. The FAK will have a specific location and contents in keeping with weight and balance
control.
Flight Operations Manual (FOM) The purpose of this manual is to:
• Provide operating limitations, procedures, performance, and systems information the flight crew needs to
safely and efficiently operate the 747-400 airplane during all anticipated airline operations
• Serve as a comprehensive reference for use during transition training for the 747-400 airplane
• Serve as a review guide for use in recurrent training and proficiency checks
• Provide operational data from the FAA approved airplane flight manual (AFM) to ensure legal requirements
are satisfied
• Establish standardized procedures and practices to enhance Boeing operational philosophy and policy.

Takeoff:
With Demand Hydraulic Pumps No. 1 or No. 4 inoperative, an engine failure at the same position (1 or 4) on takeoff will
cause a hydraulic system loss, preventing retraction of some landing gear, and will require secondary mode (electric)
operation of trailing edge flaps. Takeoff performance (including obstacle clearance) is thus based on gear and flaps
extended.
NOTE
After Takeoff:
1. Retract landing gear with the gear lever using normal procedures.
2. Retract flaps with the flap lever using normal procedures.

NOTE
Pilots must use caution when using the nose wheel steering tiller at speeds above 20 knots
to avoid over-controlling the nose wheels resulting in possible loss of directional control
For takeoff:
1. For pilot flying with access to the nose wheel steering tiller:
a. Maintain directional control by steering first with the tiller and then transitioning to control solely with the
rudder, as the rudder becomes fully effective.
b. The transition from nose wheel steering to rudder control typically occurs between 60 to 80 knots and is
normally completed by 80 knots.
c. The tiller should be guarded until directional control is established with the rudder.
d. Gradually release the pressure on the tiller while establishing the required amount of rudder control.
2. For pilot monitoring:
a. Hold a light forward pressure on the control column and use the control wheel to maintain the wings level
during the initial phase of the takeoff roll.
a. At approximately 80 knots, when the pilot flying has transitioned from steering by means of the tiller to
rudder control and has moved his hand from the tiller to the control wheel, release the control wheel.
For landing:
1. The Pilot flying with access to the nose wheel steering tiller should use the rudder and tiller as required during
the landing roll and be prepared to steer the airplane, using the tiller, once the rudder has become ineffective
(approximately 80 knots).
2. The pilot monitoring should assist the pilot flying by maintaining the wings level during the initial phase of the
landing roll and holding a light forward pressure on the control column

Due to the unavailability of a spare APU, it may be desirable to operate with the APU removed
while repairs are being made. Instructions for removal of the APU, including plugging the
lines, securing of loose hardware, tool requirements, etc. are included in Boeing Maintenance
Manual 49-11-1 “Removal/Installation” procedure. Be sure to account for the change in
Operating Empty Weight (including center of gravity effect) due to APU removal.
MAINTENANCE NOTE
1. See Boeing Maintenance Manual for towing airplane with an inoperative APU or APU removal is desired.
2. The APU Battery is used to supply power to flight critical loads if the primary DC power source is lost in flight.
OPERATIONS NOTE
Cargo Handling
1. External power must normally be connected to EXT PWR 1 and EXT PWR 2. One external power unit with 2
connectors may be used. When main deck cargo handling is required, do not push the EXT PWR 2 switch to ON
when the AVAIL light illuminates. This ensures that the main deck cargo handling bus remains powered by the
external power No. 2.
2. If only one external power unit without 2 connectors is available and main deck cargo handling is required, it
should first be connected to EXT PWR 2 (i.e. EXT PWR 2 switch not pushed to ON) to power the main deck
cargo handling bus. After completion of main deck cargo handling with the side door closed, the external power
connection should be switched over to EXT PWR 1 to power the ground handling bus, allowing lower lobe cargo
handling. EXT PWR switch should be selected to ON to power all AC buses to facilitate cockpit preparation.

1.1 Limitations
The associated limitations must be listed on a placard affixed in the cockpit in clear view of the pilot-in- command and
other appropriate crew members.
Operation with those missing parts requiring a reduction of VMO/MMO is permitted only when the airplane has the
maximum airspeed limit indication and the Mach airspeed warning system programmed for the altitude/speed schedule
specified for the applicable missing part. The pilot in command will be notified of each operation with a missing parts by
listing the missing parts in the flight or dispatch release. The operator will list in the aircraft logbook an appropriate
notation covering the missing parts on each flight.
If an additional part is lost in flight the airplane may not depart the airport at which it landed following this event until it
again complies with CDL limitations. This, does not preclude the issuance of a ferry permit to allow the airplane to be
flown to a point where the necessary repairs or replacements can be made.
No more than one part for any one sub-system may be missing unless specifically designated combinations are
indicated herein. Unless otherwise specified herein, parts from different sub-systems may be missing.
