AIRWORTHINESS INSPECTORSHANDBOOK-FOR NCAR 145/66/147/M14.4 The product survey will focus on a number of key risk airworthiness elements andidentify any findings. Furthermore, the CAAN will analyse each finding todetermine its root cause.14.5 All findings will be confirmed in writing to the person or organisation accountableaccording to NCAR M.A.201.14.6 The CAAN will record all findings, closure actions and recommendations.14.7 If during aircraft surveys evidence is found showing non-compliance to a NCAR-M requirement, the CAAN will take actions in accordance with Para 63.14.8 If the root cause of the finding identifies non-compliance with any Subpart or withanother Part, the non-compliance will be dealt with as prescribed by the relevantPart.14.9 In order to facilitate appropriate enforcement action, CAAN will exchangeinformation on non-compliances identified in accordance with Para 14.8.15. Aircraft continuing airworthiness monitoring (AMC M.B.303)The CAAN may create an adapted airworthiness survey programme for the aircraft forwhich it performs the airworthiness review.16. Aircraft continuing airworthiness monitoring (*) (AMC M.B.303 (b))16.1 Sample product surveys of aircraft include:(a) in depth surveys carried out during extensive maintenance that fully encompassselected aspects of an aircraft’s airworthiness.(b) ramp surveys carried out during aircraft operations to monitor the apparentcondition of an aircraft’s airworthiness.(c) in-flight surveys, as deemed necessary by the CAAN.16.2 The CAAN will undertake regular sample product surveys of aircraft on itsregister to verify that:(a) the condition of an aircraft as sampled is to a standard acceptable for theCertificate of Airworthiness to remain in force,(b) the operator/Owner’s management of the airworthiness of their aircraft iseffective,(c) satisfactory levels of continued airworthiness are being achieved,(d) the approval and licenses granted to organisations and persons continue to beapplied in a consistent manner to achieve the required standards.July 2012 Page 66
AIRWORTHINESS INSPECTORSHANDBOOK-FOR NCAR 145/66/147/M17. Aircraft continuing airworthiness monitoring (AMC M.B.303 (c))CAAN will create an annual programme of surveys, selecting aircraft and/or operatorsdepending on local knowledge of the maintenance environment, operating conditions,airworthiness standards and past surveillance experience. The programme will be used toidentify the operator/fleet/aircraft, which are causing the greatest concern.18. Aircraft continuing airworthiness monitoring (AMC M.B.303 (d))18.1 Appendix III to this AMC is an example format for an annual in depth surveyprogramme. A sample of the 14 key risk airworthiness elements identified onthe example will be assessed during each survey and the survey will include theaircraft as the product sample. The survey will be a ‘deep cut’ through theelements or systems selected and all findings will be recorded.Surveyors/inspectors in conjunction with the owners, operators and maintenanceorganisations will identify the root cause of each confirmed finding.18.2 In addition, an annual ramp survey programme will be developed based ongeographical locations, taking into account airfield activity, and focusing on keyissues that can be surveyed in the time available without unnecessarily delayingthe aircraft.18.3 Surveyors/inspectors will be satisfied that the root cause found and the correctiveactions taken are adequate to correct the deficiency and to prevent reoccurrence.18.4 Where the aircraft continuing airworthiness monitoring survey visit can be linkedto the oversight of an approved organisation then credit can be taken in themonitoring process of that approved organisation.19. Revocation, suspension and limitation (NCAR M.B.304)The CAAN will:(a) suspend an airworthiness review certificate on reasonable grounds in the case ofpotential safety threat, or;(b) suspend, revoke or limit an airworthiness review certificate pursuant to NCARM.B.303(g) (14.7)20. Initial Approval (NCAR M.B.602)20.1 Provided the requirements of NCAR M.A. 606 (a) and (b) are complied with,the CAAN will formally indicate its acceptance of the NCAR M.A. 606 (a) and(b) personnel to the applicant in writing.20.2 The CAAN will establish that the procedures specified in the maintenanceorganisation manual comply with M.A Subpart F and ensure the accountablemanager signs the commitment statement.July 2012 Page 67
