Appendix 2 tasks, intervals, methods, processes, procedures, and airworthiness limitations (AL) to keep the product airworthy throughout its operational life.
13. Maintenance and Inspection Instructions. Information that provides for each part of the airplane and its engine auxiliary power units (APU), propellers, accessories, instruments, and equipment the recommended periods at which they should be cleaned, inspected, adjusted, tested, and lubricated, and the degree of inspection, the applicable wear tolerances, and work recommended at these periods necessary to provide for the continued airworthiness of the airplane. They also include the recommended overhaul periods and necessary cross-reference to the Airworthiness Limitation Section (ALS) of the manual.
14. Maintenance Implementation Document (MID). A document developed by one aircraft manufacturer that contains a comprehensive list of all EWIS and Fuel Tank Safety (FTS) ICA which will satisfy the requirements contained in the Enhanced Airworthiness Program for Airplane Systems/Fuel Tank Safety (EAPAS/FTS) operational rules.
15. Maintenance Planning Data (MPD). Data developed by the manufacturer of a particular airplane which contain the information each operator of that airplane needs to develop a customized, scheduled maintenance program.
16. Maintenance Review Board Report (MRBR). Intended for air carriers, a report which contains the initial minimum scheduled maintenance and inspection requirements for a particular transport category airplane and on-wing engine program. Air carriers may use those provisions— along with other maintenance information contained in the ICA—in the development of their maintenance programs.
17. Maintenance Steering Group – 3rd Task Force (MSG-3). A voluntary structured process developed by the industry and maintained by Airlines for America (A4A) to make decisions used to develop maintenance and inspection tasks and intervals for an airplane.
18. Products. Certified aircraft, engines, propellers, and appliances.
19. Representative Airplane’s EWIS. For the purposes of the EAPAS/FTS Rule, the “representative airplane’s” EWIS is the configuration of each model series airplane that incorporates all variations of the EWIS used in production on that series airplane and all TCH-designed modifications mandated by Airworthiness Directive (AD) as of the effective date of the rule.
20. STC-Developed EWIS ICA. STC holders may use the Maintenance Review Board (MRB) process or any other process they choose. Regardless of the process used, the end result must be ICA that include the applicable inspection tasks, intervals, methods, processes, and procedures to keep the EWIS airworthy throughout its operational life.
21. STC EWIS ICA. The inspections and procedures to keep an alteration affecting the EWIS approved under an STC airworthy throughout its operational life.
22. TCH EWIS ICA. The inspections and procedures to keep the EWIS airworthy throughout its operational life.
Appendix 2 Page 3 (and 4)
23. TCH Original EWIS ICA. The result of the MRB process. During this process, TCH-developed Maintenance Significant Items (MSI) are subjected to maintenance program development logic, such as in MSG-3 or later revisions. The result is an ICA that includes the applicable inspection tasks, intervals, methods, processes, and procedures to keep the EWIS airworthy throughout its operational life.
