Appendix VI F1F2

An example of the aircraft maintenance licence referred to in Annex III (Part-66) can be found on the following pages.

The document shall be printed in the standardised form shown but may be reduced in size to allow it being generated by computer. When the size is reduced, care shall be taken to ensure that sufficient space is available in those places where official seals or stamps are required. Computer-generated documents need not have all the boxes incorporated when any such box remains blank, so long as the document can clearly be recognised as an aircraft maintenance licence issued in accordance with Annex III (Part-66).

F13The document must be completed in English.

Each licence holder shall have a unique licence holder number, established on the basis of a national identifier and an alpha-numeric designator.

The document may have the pages in a different order to the one of this example and needs not have some or any divider lines as long as the information contained is positioned in such a manner that each page lay-out can clearly be identified with the format of the example of the aircraft maintenance licence contained herein.

The document shall be prepared by the F14CAA. However, it may also be prepared by any maintenance organisation approved in accordance with Annex II (Part-145), where the CAA agrees to this and the preparation takes place in accordance with a procedure laid down in the maintenance organisation exposition referred to in point 145.A.70 of Annex II (Part-145). In all cases, the CAA shall issue the document.

The preparation of any change to an existing aircraft maintenance licence shall be carried out by the F15CAA. However, it may also be prepared by any maintenance organisation approved in accordance with Annex II (Part- 145), where the CAA agrees to this and the preparation takes place in accordance with a procedure laid down in the maintenance organisation exposition referred to in point 145.A.70 of Annex II (Part-145). In all cases, the CAA shall change the document.

The holder of the aircraft maintenance licence shall keep it in good condition and shall ensure that no unauthorised entries are made. Failure to comply with this rule may invalidate the license or lead to the holder not being permitted to hold any certification privilege. It may also result in prosecution under national law.

F16...

The Annex to F17CAA Form 26 is optional and may only be used to include national privileges, where such privileges are covered by national law outside the scope of Annex III (Part-66.

With regard to the aircraft type rating page of the aircraft maintenance licence, the F18CAA may decide not to issue this page until the first aircraft type rating needs to be endorsed and may need to issue more than one aircraft type rating page depending on the number of type ratings to be listed.

Notwithstanding point 11, each page issued shall be in the format of this example and contain the specified information for that page.

The aircraft maintenance licence shall clearly indicate that the limitations are exclusions from the certification privileges. If there are no limitations applicable, the LIMITATIONS page shall state ‘ No limitations ’ .

Where a pre-printer format is used for issuing the aircraft maintenance licence, any category, subcategory or type rating box which does not contain a rating entry shall be marked to show that the rating is not held.
