WHY DO YOU NEED TO

LEARN THIS TOPIC?
• Two most important certificates that an aircraft need in
order to be able to operate is a Certificate of
Airworthiness (C of A) and a Certificate of Registration
(C of R).
• Therefore, as aviation personnel, you need to be able
to understand what are the requirements for an aircraft
to receive C of A and C of R.
• You also need to understand in cases where C of A
becomes invalid, what is needed to allow the aircraft to
fly back to its base station.

can be divided into 4 main categories:

14
 AIRWORTHINESS CODES
• Based on the standards set in Annex 8, each State need
to establish its own comprehensive and detailed
Airworthiness Codes or would select a comprehensive
and detailed code established by another contracting
States.
• Example: Flutter and Vibration Requirements
• The Airworthiness Codes will be the Certification Basis
when Authority certifying an aircraft.

In-Class Assignment: Find and explain the regulation on Malaysian

Airworthiness Codes.

 Volume 1 : Aircraft Noise

 Volume 2 : Aircraft Engine Emissions

 Volume 3 : Environmental Protection

In-Class Assignment:
Based on MCAR 2016 and CAD 1601 explain the regulation and
requirements on Aircraft Noise Certificate.

17
 OPERATIONAL SUITABILITY
DATA
• Operational Suitability Data (OSD) is an aircraft type
related data necessary for safe operation.
• It covers 5 domains:
1. Flight Crew Training Data : CS - FCD
2. Simulator Data : CS - SIMD
3. Cabin Crew Training Data : CS - CCD
4. Maintenance Certifying Staff Data : CS - MCSD
5. Master Minimum Equipment List (MMEL): CS - MMEL
• OSD closed the gap between aircraft design and
operations.
18
 OSD
• OSD ensures that aircraft can be operated safely by
making sure that all necessary information is available
before entry into service.
* Relevant Case Studies - Boeing 737 Max MCAS Problems.
• Compliance with OSD certification basis need to be
shown during Type Certification process.

19
AUTHORITY REQUIREMENTS

equipped with radio and radio navigation equipment which
comply with the law of the State of Registry or the State of
the Operator and enable communications to be made

• Under Communications and Multimedia Act 1998.

 Aircraft Radio Licence is needed for the installation and usage
of radio equipment on an aircraft.
 Aircraft radio licence is issued by Malaysian Communications
and Multimedia Commission (MCMC).

23
24
 DESIGN APPROVAL
• MCAR 2016 Regulations 23 states that, “All
aeronautical products shall be approved or validated
by the Authority and for that purpose, the Authority
may issue to any person—
Type Certificate (TC), Restricted
a) A Type Certificate or Type Certificate
validation to a Type & TCDS
Certificate. Supplemental TC
Validated TC & STC

b) An approval in Technical Standard Order (TSO)

relation to an Part Manufacturing Approval
aeronautical product. (PMA)

25
 CLASSIFICATION OF
AERONAUTICAL PRODUCTS
• Aeronautical product normally are assigned to a
particular “Class”,
Class I product – a complete aircraft, engine, or propeller which
has been type certificated in accordance with the appropriate
airworthiness requirements and for which the necessary type
certificate data sheets or equivalent have been issued.
Class II product – a major component of a Class I product such
as wing, fuselage and empennage surface, the failure of which
would jeopardize the safety of a Class I product or any part,
material or system thereof.
Class III product – any part or component which is not a Class I or
Class II product, and includes standard part.

27
TYPE CERTIFICATE (TC) & RESTRICTED
TYPE CERTIFICATE (RTC)
• Type Certificate (TC) signifies that a certain types of:

 aircraft,

 engines or

 propeller
design has been approved by the Authority and it
conforms to airworthiness requirements set by the
Authority.

28
TYPE CERTIFICATE (TC) & RESTRICTED
• Restricted Type Certificate is issued for aeronautical
TYPE CERTIFICATE (RTC) 2
product which unable to comply with Annex 8 and 16.

• Type Certificate Data Sheet (TCDS) which comes with

the TC, records the basis of certification, the
designation of each approved variant and general
information concerning the design.

E.g., A220-100 TC and TCDS

29
In-Class Assignments

1. Who can apply for TC

2. TC Approval Validity

3. TC Approval Holder Obligations

4. Changes to Aeronautical Product with TC

6. TC Approval Transferability

7. Airworthiness Codes Adopted by CAAM

30
SUPPLEMENTAL TYPE CERTIFICATE
• It is common for commercial aircraft to experience
changes in its design due to many factors.
• These changes (modification) can be either “minor” or
“major”.
• A Supplemental Type Certificate (STC) is a certificate
issued when an applicant has received the Authority
approval to carry out major modification to an
aeronautical product from its original design.

E.g., Airbus 330

Passenger to Freighter
Conversion
31
In-Class Assignments
• Based on CAD 8105, explain STC requirements:

1. Who can apply for STC

2. STC Approval Validity

3. STC Approval Holder Obligations

4. Changes to Aeronautical Product with STC

5. STC Approval Transferability

32
 VALIDATED TC & STC
(VTC & VSTC)
• For an Aeronautical product that already has a Type
Certificate or Supplemental Type Certificate, Authority
may issue a Validated TC or Validated STC
(VTC or VSTC) instead of issuing a new TC or STC.
• Similar to TC or STC, a VTC or VSTC signifies that a
certain type of aircraft, engine, or propeller
design/major modification has been approved by the
Authority and it conforms to airworthiness
requirements set by the Authority.
• The process of issuing a VTC or VSTC is less complicated
compared to the process of issuing a TC or STC.
33
In-Class Assignments
• Based on CAD 8107, explain:

1. What are the requirements for Authority to consider the

Application for VTC

2. What are the responsibility of VTC Approval Holder

34
In-Class Assignments
• Based on CAD 8108, explain:

1. What are the requirements for Authority to consider the

VSTC Application

2. What are the responsibility of VSTC Approval Holder

35
 TECHNICAL STANDARD ORDER
• A Technical Standard Order (TSO) is a minimum
performance standard for specified materials, parts,
and appliances used on civil aircraft.
• TSO authorization is both design and production
approval.
• Receiving a TSO Authorization is not an approval to
install and use the article in the aircraft.

E.g., AIRCRAFT TIRE TSO

(TSO-C62d)

36
PART MANUFACTURING APPROVAL
(PMA)
• Part Manufacturing Approval (PMA) is a design and
production approval for modification and replacement
articles, normally given to Non-OEM (Original
Equipment Manufacture).
• It is issued by Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).

• Based on CAD 8204, explain what are the requirements

for PMA Parts to be accepted for installation on
Malaysian registered aircraft.

37
 STANDARD PARTS
• A standard part is a part or material that conforms to
an established industry or country standards.
• Examples of standards for parts include, but are not
limited to;
– National Aerospace Standard (NAS).
– Army-Navy Aeronautical Standard (AN).
– Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE).
– American National Standards Institute (ANSI).

AN 363-720 Nut
AN 173-7 Bolt
38
• The Authority does not certify the manufacturers of
standard parts. However, when a type design calls for
the installation of a standard part, the Authority may
conduct surveillance on the manufacturer and/or
supplier of that part.
• A standard part must conform to the designated part
specification in order to qualify as a standard part.
• Accordingly, the production of a standard part offered
for sale for installation on a type-certificated product
where that part does not conform to the standard part
specification may be a violation of the regulations.

39
• When purchasing and installing standard parts,
consider the following:
– A Certificate of Conformity (C of C) should be provided by the
producer of a standard part.
– A standard part should carry a mark indicating the part has
been produced in accordance with the specification
requirements.
– A part is no longer considered “standard” if it is used in a
critical application that imposes qualification or quality
control requirements beyond the standard specification.
– To facilitate traceability, commingling like fasteners from
different lots is not recommended.

40
PRODUCTION CERTIFICATION
• When a product has been completed by the production
organisation, the product must be certified that it
meets all the airworthiness requirements set by the
Authority.
• For aircraft component including engine, propeller etc.
this can be done by an approved production
organisation by issuing Authorised Release Certificate
(ARC).
• State of Manufacture Authority may issue Export
Certificate of Airworthiness, declaring that the aircraft
complies with Type Certification Basis, but does not
allow aircraft to be flown.
41
AUTHORISED RELEASE CERTIFICATE
(ARC)
• Authorised Release Certificate is issued for two (2)
purposes:
1. To certify an aeronautical product has been
manufactured in conformity with either
approved/non-approved design data.
2. To certify an aeronautical product has been
maintained in accordance with the Authority
requirements and is considered ready for release to
service.

42
AUTHORISED RELEASE CERTIFICATE
• When an aeronautical product has been manufactured,
(ARC)
the Approved Production 2
Organisation (APO) will issue
Authorised Released Certificate (ARC) for that
particular product.
• When an aircraft component has been maintained in
accordance with the Authority requirement, the
Approved Maintenance Organisation (AMO) will issue
Authorised Release Certificate (ARC) for that particular
component.
• ARC under CAAM, EASA and FAA are commonly
referred to as:

CAAM Form 1 EASA Form 1 FAA Form 8130-3

55
MAINTENANCE APPROACH
• 1st step in developing maintenance programme
information is to determine the maintenance approach.
• There are two (2) maintenance approach used in
developing aircraft maintenance programme
information.

PROCESS APPROACH

TASK APPROACH

56
Process Approach
• Process approach is looking at the maintenance in
terms of what type of process the items are placed
under.

 Hard-Time

 On-Condition

 Condition Monitoring

57
Hard-Time
• Hard-Time process is used for components that:
– have direct adverse effect on safety.
– reliability degrades with time.
– not possible to determine the airworthiness status of the
component by carrying out maintenance check.

• Hard-Time components need to be removed once it

has reached certain time limits:
– Operating Flight Hours.
– Calendar Time.
– Flight Cycles.

58
On-Condition

• On-Condition process is used for components that

show physical deterioration.
• On-condition components need to be inspected or
tested periodically.
• The result from the inspection or test is need to be
compared to a certain physical standard to determine
whether the component
can remain in service, or
it needs to be replaced.

59
Condition Monitoring
• Condition monitoring process is used for components
that:
– Cannot be included under hard-time or on-condition.
– Does not have direct adverse effect on safety.

• Condition monitoring components are allowed to fails.

• The components are monitored for its mechanical
performance, failures rates, etc.

60
Task Approach
• Task approach is looking at the maintenance in terms of
task needed to be carried out on an item at certain
frequency.
• It can be:
– Lubrication and Servicing
– Operational Check and Visual Check
– Inspection and Functional Check
– Restoration and Discard

61
AIRWORTHINESS LIMITATION SECTIONS
• Based on the maintenance approach, the aircraft
manufacturer develop Airworthiness Limitation
Sections (ALS).
• ALS normally comprises of documents such as:

Life Limited Parts (LLP)

Fatigue and Damage-Tolerant Airworthiness Limitation Items

(ALI’s)

Certification Maintenance Requirements (CMRs)

Critical Design Configuration Control Limitations (CDCCL)

62
Life Limited Parts (LLP)
• Life-Limited Parts is component in which a mandatory
replacement limit is specified in the type design, the
Instructions for Continued Airworthiness, or the
maintenance manual.
• Can be in terms of Flying Hours (FH), Cycles (CYC), or
Calendar Time (CAL).
• The part may be controlled using a record keeping
system that substantiates the part number, serial
number, and current life status of the part.
• E.g., Engine Fire Extinguishers Bottle Cartridge

63
Fatigue and Damage Tolerant Airworthiness Limitation
Items (ALI)
• Aircraft structures are designed using 3 design concept:

1. Safe-Life

2. Fail-Safe

3. Damage Tolerance
64
65
• Complex interactions between multiple parameters
such as:
– Operating practices
– Environmental effects
– Load effect
have different effect on damage tolerance of a
structure.
• Therefore, it is vital to detect damage before it
becomes critical.
• Fatigues and Damage Tolerant Airworthiness
Limitations Items (ALI) contains establish inspections or
other procedures to prevent catastrophic failure from
accidental, environmental or fatigue damage.
66
Certification Maintenance Requirements (CMR)

• CMR are required inspections or maintenance tasks

established during aircraft certification for the purpose
to detect and correct safety-significant latent failures
(failures not known to the flight or ground crew).
• CMRs verify that a certain latent failure has or has not
occurred, indicate that repairs are necessary if the item
has failed, or identify the need to inspect for impending
failures (e.g., heavy wear or leakage).
• It is vital to limit latent failure exposure time so that it
will not develop into hazardous or catastrophic failure.

67
• CMR task intervals are designated in terms of;
– Flight hours
– Cycles or
– Calendar Time
• Major aircraft manufacturers predominantly refer to
two types of CMR task:
One Star CMR (CMR*)
Tasks and intervals are mandatory and shall not be changed or
deleted without the approval of the State of Design Certification
Authority.
Two Star CMR (CMR**)
Changes to task intervals must be supported by an approved
procedure and monitoring programme. Tasks may not be changed or
deleted without the agreement of the State of Registry Authority.

68
Critical Design Configuration Control Limitations (CDCCL)
• A CDCCL is an airworthiness limitation that defines
those parameters of the design that must be
maintained to ensure that ignition sources will not
develop within the fuel tank.
• Fuel system are designed with feature that minimized
possible ignition, it is therefore important to ensure the
integrity of this feature must be maintained during
any modification, change, repair or scheduled
maintenance.
– Fuel pump overhaul
– Fuel pump bonding strap
– Fuel gauge wiring
Case Study: TWA Flight 800*
69
MAINTENANCE REVIEW BOARD (MRB) REPORT

• Contains the minimum scheduled tasking/interval

requirements for the aircraft.
• Develop using MSG-3 Analysis.
• Qualitative Assessment focusing;
– Aircraft Safety
– Aircraft Availability
– Maintenance Costs

• Maintenance Review Board consist of;

– Aircraft Manufacturer
– Major Suppliers and Vendors
– Owners/Operators
– Airworthiness Authorities

70
MAINTENANCE PLANNING DOCUMENT (MPD)
• Produced by the manufacturer, it is a reference
document for Aircraft Operator to develop their own
Aircraft Maintenance Programme.
• It is a compilation of Maintenance Review Board Report
(MRBR) and Airworthiness Limitations Sections and any
other relevant documents.
• Provides maintenance planning
information necessary for the
operator to develop a customized
scheduled maintenance program.

71
 MAINTENANCE INFORMATION
• There are many types of data used to carry out
maintenance on aircraft.
• Each manufacturer has its own manual name and
purpose.
• The most commons are but not limited to:
 Aircraft Maintenance Manual (AMM)
 Component Maintenance Manual (CMM)
 Structural Repair Manual (SRM)
 Illustrated Parts Catalogue (IPC)
 Illustrated Tools and Equipment List (ITEL)
