GM to Appendix II to Part-M — Use of the CAA Form 1 for maintenance    

CAA ORS9 Decision No. 1

CAA FORM 1 BLOCK 12 ‘REMARKS’

The CAA Form 1 identifies the airworthiness status of an aircraft component in relation to the work being certified. Block 12 ‘Remarks’ of the CAA Form 1 in some cases contains vital airworthiness- related information (see also Appendix II to Part-M) which may need appropriate and necessary actions.

Examples of data to be entered in this block as appropriate:

— Maintenance documentation used, including the revision status, for all work performed and not limited to the entry made in block 11. A statement such as ‘in accordance with the CMM’ is not acceptable.

— NDT methods with appropriate documentation used when relevant.

— Compliance with airworthiness directives or service bulletins.

— Repairs carried out.

— Modifications carried out.

— Replacement parts installed.

— Life-limited parts status.

— Shelf life limitations.

— Deviations from the customer work order.

— Release statements to satisfy a foreign civil aviation authority maintenance requirement.

— Information needed to support shipment with shortages or re-assembly after delivery.

— References to aid traceability, such as batch numbers.
