Introduction
At SAS we specialize in EASA regulations and staying at the forefront of what is happening in the industry.
This course is designed primarily for Airworthiness Authorities and focuses on the relationship between EASA Driven Airworthiness Regulatory obligations and the methods whereby the Industry is able to show compliance.
Using EASA regulatory compliance as the baseline with appropriate consideration of both the Federal Airworthiness Authority (FAA) and International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO).
EASA Airworthiness regulation within the commercial environment is a deeply complex and wide-reaching subject. Harmonization with the FAA plays a significant role in delivering Initial Airworthiness Compliance.
All Sofema Aviation Services Instructors have a minimum of 20 years of experience and bring a wealth of personal competency and practical experience to the training.
Who is the Course for?
This course is specifically focused on the needs of stakeholders to the aviation Initial and continuing airworthiness activities across the entire regulatory spectrum.
Typically Suitable for Competent Authorities Staff, Aircraft Maintenance Organisation (AMO) Key Staff. Design Organisation (DOA) and Production Organisation (POA) Key staff including Quality and Certification (CVE). Continuing Airworthiness Management Organisations (CAMO) including Continuing Airworthiness Managers, Reliability, Engineering, Maintenance Planning and Technical Records.
What is the Benefit of this Training – What will I learn?
a) Achieve a comprehensive understanding of the regulatory requirement for the development and management of Aerodromes
b) Familiarity with the steps required to achieve airport certification
c) Understanding the principles of an ICAO Annex 14 & ISO 19011 compliant management including delivering an effective Quality Management System (QMS) and Safety Management System (SMS)
d) Achieve a detailed understanding regarding the development, management, and oversight of the Aerodrome Manual and related processes and procedures
e) Develop an understanding regarding how to Identify areas that need special attention and how to apply risk-based techniques to ensure the correct focus together with appropriate mitigations
f) To be able to deliver an effective assessment to establish Aerodrome Compliance plus the effectiveness of the Quality & Safety System
