ARSA Seeks Industry Input on Audit Burden Facing Repair Stations

ALEXANDRIA, VIRGINIA, March 22, 2012 – The Aeronautical Repair Station Association (ARSA) is seeking input from the aviation maintenance industry through an anonymous survey measuring the scope and cost of audit burdens facing repair stations.

Conducted in tandem with a Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) project seeking to measure and quantify the audit impact on repair stations, ARSA will submit the results to the FAA for comparison and validation with the agency’s own research on the issue.

ARSA asks that only one representative from each company participate. The survey is open through April 13.
To complete the twenty-five question survey, visit https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/ARSAAudit.

For more information or details, please contact ARSA Vice President of Quality Paul Hawthorne at 703 739 9543.
