Does the scope reflected in the manual (CAE) of a combined airworthiness organisation that has an approval with one or more generic scopes have to be specific or can it be generic?

In any case, the organization's report (CAE) should always reflect the real scope of the organization and the work it performs; no aircraft may be added that are not being managed/maintained even though they fall under the category of their approval. (New!)

Is an FAA Form8130-3 with block 11 “Rebuilt” permissible for motor components, among other magnets?

No, as set out in the EASA-FAA bilateral agreement, only FAA Form8130-3 Rebuilt for engine are acceptable, as set out in point 10.11.1.6 “Engines rebuilt by the PAH can be accepted as specified in the TIP associated with Annex 1 of the Agreement.   “Rebuilt Engine” means an engine that has been disassembled, cleaned, inspected, repaired as necessary, reassembled, and tested to the same tolerances and limits as a new item by the production approval holder in accordance with 14 CFR part 43.

Is it possible to maintain a component without issuing a Form 1 when it is going to be used by the same organisation?

RESPUESTA DE EASA

The following aspects to be taken in consideration:

  • it is possible to release component maintenance on an internal release document (IRD) when this component will be installed on an aircraft by the same maintenance organisation (145.A.50(d));
  • The CAMO/operator of the aircraft should be in agreement; and 
  • all the information normally required for an EASA Form 1 should be adequately detailed in the IRD (and in MOE procedure). In this case the IRD is considered to be equivalent to an EASA Form 1 for 145.A.42 purpose
