EASA Part M

In part M we can find the following facts:

− How the airworthiness status of the aircraft is determined, controlled and
maintained, how maintenance is planned and ordered and who is responsible for
what. (Subpart‐M of JAR‐OPS1 was used as a basis and it was adapted to the
different aircraft categories and operations)
− Maintenance standards to be met.
− Requirements for maintenance organisations involved in the maintenance of aircraft other than large not used for Commercial Air Transport (Subpart F maintenance organisations). For large aircraft and aircraft involved in CAT, the requirements are in Part‐145.
− Requirements for independent certifying staff performing certain maintenance for
aircraft other than large not used for Commercial Air Transport.
− Pilot‐owner maintenance.
− Requirements for the renewal of the validity of the Certificate of Airworthiness
(airworthiness reviews).
