This AC describes an acceptable means of compliance with the certification requirements of Civil Aviation Rule Part 147 for aviation maintenance training organisations. This material is intended for applicants for, and holders of, aviation maintenance training organisation certificates.
This AC relates specifically to Civil Aviation Rule Part 147 Maintenance Training Organisations Certification.
Revision 1 of this AC updates the content to reflect the transition from a Quality Management System (QMS) to a system of safety management (Safety Management System or SMS) focus, as reflected in rule 147.17.
Throughout, we have substituted guidance on quality management with reference to AC100-1, as participants are advised to follow this AC when designing their SMS. We have also made a number of stylistic changes, including punctuation and general formatting fixes. Lastly, we have taken the opportunity to add a Version History.
We have also made a marked up version [PDF 518 KB] available with the insertions highlighted in yellow and deletions in strikethrough so participants can check the changes easily.
