Sofema Aviation Services (SAS) is excited to share the latest training by Sofema Aviation Academy:

EASA Part ML Regulatory Obligations – Initial 

What is the training about?

This course is structured to provide practical knowledge, hands-on exercises, and valuable insights into the streamlined maintenance rules for light aircraft. By the end of this 1-day course, participants should have a comprehensive understanding of Part ML, including its less prescriptive approach to maintenance programs, airworthiness reviews (including the new EASA Form 15c), defect deferments, and TBO extensions. Designed for pilots, owners, independent certifying staff, and small maintenance organizations, the training covers the practical application of these rules for non-complex, non-AOC airplanes up to 2730 kg MTOM, rotorcraft up to 1200 kg MTOM, and other EL2 aircraft.
