EC Council Regulation on Technical Harmonisation
3922/91

• The EU regulation on the harmonisation of
  technical requirements and procedures applicable
  to civil aircraft became effective on 1 January
  1992.
• The effect of this regulation is to give the
  force of European law to those JARs specified
  in the regulation including automatic
  recognition. It therefore follows that compliance
  with and automatic recognition of the JARs
  specified in the regulation is mandatory for the
  EU JAA-NAA states from the date on when a
  particular JAR is gazetted.

8
EU Council Regulation on Technical Harmonisation

• JAR-145 approved maintenance organisation is one
  JAR specified in the EU regulation and therefore
  with the force of law the EU requires compliance
  with JAR-145 and the automatic recognition of
  such JAR-145 approvals granted by one JAA-NAA by
  any other JAA-NAA without further technical
  evaluation but subject to compliance with the
  common procedures

9
EU Council Regulation on Technical Harmonisation

• The common procedures applicable to JAR-145 are
  specified in the Joint Maintenance Procedures
  blue book.
• Failure to comply with JAR-145 or the associated
  common procedures are the only basis for
  non-recognition and would need to be made known
  to the EU.

JAR-66

• Covers certifying staff primarily for JAR-145
• Limited to release of aircraft 5700kg above
• Status Effective June 1998
• Mandatory after June 2001
• Small a/c draft proposal now with the Maintenance
  Committee. Possible NPA second quarter 2000.

23
JAR-66

• Certifying staff will be granted a JAR-66
  aircraft maintenance licence in one or more of
  the following categories
• A - Certifying mechanic
• B1 - Certifying technician mechanical
• B2 - Certifying technician avionic
• C - Certifying base maintenance engineer

24
JAR-66

• The JAR-66 aircraft maintenance licence will
  contain the basic A, B1, B2 and C categories
• Except for category A it will contain type
  ratings
• Will be in a standardised JAA format
• Will be issued by the JAA full member Authorities
  and be recognised by all others

25
JAR-66

• The JAR-66 aircraft maintenance licence alone
  does not permit the holder to release to service
  an aircraft used for commercial air transport
• It in addition requires the JAR-145 organisation
  to issue a JAR-145 certification authorisation to
  permit release of such aircraft on behalf of the
  JAR-145 organisation

JAR 66 PROTECTED RIGHTS

• 1. Existing national licence to be converted to
  JAR 66 AML within 10 years with limitations as
  necessary.
• 2. Converted to full JAR 66 AML if standards meet
  full requirement of JAR 66.
• 3. Standards check by JAA before (2) conversion.

28
Bilateral Aviation Safety Agreement (BASA)

• 1. BASA is State to State agreement to recognise
  each others systems via implementation
  procedures.
• 2. Maintenance Implementation Procedure (MIP) is
  for maintenance.
• 3. Signature of MIP activates maintenance part.
• 4. The basic BASA must be signed before any
  implementation procedure can be signed.

29
Fundamental principle for MIP

• 1. A JAA accepted American FAR-145 Repair Station
  will certify compliance with FARs plus any
  differences between FAR and JAR.
• 2. A JAR-145 European Maintenance Organisation
  holding FAR-145 will certify compliance with JARs
  plus any differences between FAR and JAR. For
  Components a JAA Form One is used.

30
JAA Acceptance of American FAR-145 Repair Stations

• 1. Quality Audit System as in JAR 145.
• 2. Access for JAA or FAA acting on behalf of JAA
• 3. Accountable Manager Commitment as in JAR 145

31
JAA Acceptance of American FAR-145 Repair Stations

• 4. Supplement to inspection procedures manual.
• 5. Acceptance of other differences.
• 6. Receive maintenance international
  standardisation teams (MIST).

32
MIST Teams

• MIST Teams use a standard format to question the
  NAA and sample a selection of industry
  organisations for compliance with JARs such as
  145.
• MIST Team findings are discussed with the NAA
  before being finalised into the need for
  corrective action.
• Failure to correct within agreed timescales can
  lead to the country approvals not being
  recognised by other member states.

33
MIST OBJECTIVE

• 1. To help FAA staff understand the differences
  between JAR-145 and FAR 43/145 from the JAA point
  of view.
• 2. To look at each FAA regions working practices
  for compatibility with JAA procedures.
• 3. By snapshot audits of a representative sample
  of FAR-145 repair stations, check for
  compatibility with JAR-145.
• NOTE Any FAR-145 repair station found
  significantly out of compliance with FAR-145 or
  JAA supplementary conditions will be removed from
  JAA list.
