Sofema Aviation Services (SAS) www.sassofia.com considers the changes to the CAR M CAMO Environment.

With this amendment – Issue 6, GCAA is introducing the Management System Requirements familiar to EASA CAMOs and identified as EASA PART CAMO (essentially a replacement For Part M Subpart G)

However, rather than replacing CAR M Subpart G (which remains) GCAA is providing a Supplement S-1 which contains all relevant elements of the management system requirements to supplement the continuing airworthiness management of any aircraft used by CAT Air Operators and the CMPA with additional requirements.

CAR M.201 is amended to clarify the airworthiness responsibilities for aircraft used by air carriers, CMPA, NCMPA, aircraft used for commercial specialized operations, aircraft used for CAT and aircraft used by commercial ATO.

CAR M.306 was amended to clarify the system requirements for CAT, commercial specialised operations and commercial ATO or commercial DTO operations, as well as the approval and the subsequent amendment management.

CONTINUING AIRWORTHINESS REQUIREMENTS – CAR M.707 was amended to extend the applicability to CAR-ML and to clarify the requirements concerning aircraft used by commercial air operators, CMPA and NCMPA.

New AMC CAR M.801 Aircraft certificate of release to service; content, maintenance reference, issuance and records and certificate of release to service; INCOMPLETE MAINTENANCE

CAR M.901 amended for clarity on the Airworthiness Review of aircraft used by commercial air operators, aircraft above 2730 KG MTOM & aircraft not used by commercial air operators and aircraft below 2730 KG MTOM
