Aircraft Maintenance Programme and Reliability Monitoring

Transportation

TCQ Triangle
Training Provided by TCQ Triangle The instructions for continuing airworthiness is to be delivered by the aircraft manufacturer for the establishment of an approved aircraft operator s aircraft maintenance programme and must contain the necessary details, including frequencies, of all maintenance required to be carried out for a safe and economical aircraft operation. Implementation of such aircraft maintenance programmes requires the preparation and planning of the maintenance tasks. These tasks are normally based upon the Maintenance Review Board Report and the Manufacturer s Maintenance Planning Recommendation as detailed in the Maintenance Planning Document (MPD). In order to establish an operator s maintenance programme, the tasks and periods (interval/frequencies) at which each part of the aircraft, engines, APU s, components, accessories, equipment, instruments, electrical and communication apparatus, and associated systems and installations should be inspected. Such implementation includes the periods at which items as appropriate, should be checked, cleaned, lubricated, replenished, adjusted and tested as well.
