| Flight Manual (AFM) is an... | Airworthiness document approved by CASA and must remain in the aeroplane while in operation. It contains final reference regarding operating limitations and techniques. |
| A Maintenance Release (MR) is... | An operational document approved by CASA. It records the current legal airworthiness status of an aircraft. |
| Maintenance Release (MR) consists of 3 parts - | P1 - Maintenance release P2 - recording of all aircraft defects or damage - corrective action taken to return aircraft to an airworthy state. P3 - Cert of the daily inspection + recording of total time in service. |
| A Maintenance Release (MR) is to be re-issued when? | - After 1 year or - If the aircraft has clocked up the specific Time in Service (TIS) |
| Maintenace inspections occur.... | Periodically, by a qualified LAME. - Annual and/ or 100-hourly Daily, also carried out by a LAME or licenced pilot. - Prior to the first flight of each day. |
