Air Worthiness reviews validate that the airworthiness of the aircraft has been appropriately managed since its last AR and that the maintenance records produced accurately reflect the physical condition of the aircraft. The importance of independence within the AR processes is essential in maintaining the integrity of the AR process and in providing a documented body of evidence for the accountable Duty Holder to decide on the airworthiness of an aircraft.
The Authority requires an Independent supplier to deliver the output ARs required by the Military Aviation Authority (MAA), The Regulator, in accordance with higher level MAA Regulatory Publications (MRP), MAA Part M Sub Part I Regulatory Articles, Royal Air Force Engineering Policy requirements detailed in AP100B-01, Order 1.14. The approved platform Continuing Airworthiness Management Organisation (CAMO) instructions and relevant local orders and procedures published and authorised by the Military Continuing Airworthiness Manager (Mil CAM) e.g. Aviation Engineering Standing Orders (AESOs), Aviation Engineering Routine Orders (AEROs).
