ARSA Requests MAG Clarification
November 16, 2011
ARSA recently asked the Joint Maintenance Coordination Board (JMCB) to consider a number of revisions to the Maintenance Annex Guidance (MAG), which implements the maintenance provisions in the bilateral aviation safety agreement (BASA) between the U.S. and the EU.
In the letter, ARSA asked that the JMCB edit certain language regarding human factors training and eliminate confusing Airworthiness Directive procedures within the MAG. Additionally, ARSA encouraged EASA to revisit its response to ARSA’s April 2010 letter on part tagging requirements for new and used components.
