Overview

Airworthiness Directives: it’s enough to make your heart race, and even ground the aircraft if you’re not on top of it. But AD Notes are only part of an aircraft’s continuing improvement program of Service Bulletins, Service Changes, and modifications which every A&P Technician, and in some cases, the aircraft owner or operator, should understand.

How to properly look-up and evaluate to see if the bulletin or modification not only applies, but would make a valuable contribution to the aircraft’s operation or maintenance program is extremely important for the on-going operation of the aircraft.

Objective

The objective of this course is to better understand Airworthiness Directives, Service Bulletins, and other directives and modifications; where to find AD Note information and how to determine if your aircraft is affected; how to look up and evaluate Service Bulletins and Service Changes; and how to properly record, display, and keep AD, SB, ASC and information in the aircraft’s record..

Applicability

This course will benefit A&P Technicians and Students and anyone needing a better understanding of the directives that affect an aircraft’s maintenance and operation for the life of the aircraft.
