ETOPS - Concept of threshold

There are sets of Certification & Operational requirements, called ETOPS (or
EDTO) which apply when an aircraft is operated beyond applicable threshold

Threshold:
Given time/distance from an airport
En-route alternate airport

Not impacted

Destination

Departure

Approval Required

EDTO: Extended Diversion Time Operations

ETOPS: Extended Twin engine A/C OPerationS

ETOPS - Maximum Diversion Time

These Certification & Operational requirements also introduce the concept of Maximum
Diversion Time, thus defining an approved authorized area of operations

Maximum Diversion Time:

Given time/distance from an airport

En-route alternate airport

Destination

Departure

Approved area of operations

ETOPS - methods for reliability and maturity demonstration

3 methods:
Increasing
In-service experience > 100 000 EH (EASA) in-service
> 250 000 EH (FAA) experience
Review of in-service data
Flight tests for ETOPS Significant Systems failures (incl.
OEI diversions)
100,000 EH

Combined service experience and Early ETOPS > 15 000 EH (FAA only)

Review of in-service data

Flight tests for ETOPS Significant Systems failures (incl.
OEI diversions)
3000 cycles tests (APU + Engine)
15,000 EH
Early ETOPS No in-service
experience
Flight tests for ETOPS Significant Systems failures (incl.
OEI diversions)
3000 cycles tests (APU + Engine)
Flight + Bench Tests for maturity purpose

ETOPS - design and approval process

 For each ATA, the standards are listed as:
1- Configuration items
2- Maintenance items
3- Procedures items
4- Dispatch items

 Each item contains:

 Description of the requirements
 Diversion Time Range
 Compliance Schedule
 Solution(s)

Key Points
 For ETOPS certified A/C, AIRBUS has developed a Configuration,
Maintenance and Procedure (CMP) Document.

 All the Scheduled Maintenance Tasks identified in the CMP are also
included into the MPD.

 A CMP is an Authority Approved Document and is regularly updated.

 The MPD reflects all new or modified source documents (MRBR, ALS &
CMP) in the next MPD revision. Changes between two MPD revisions are
communicated via the MPD Revision Information File.
