  8. Overview • Functions that control maintenance • Maintenance Control Center Responsibilities • Line Maintenance Operation-General • Aircraft Logbook • Ramp and terminal Operations • Flight handling • Flight line (preflight and post flight) • Other Line Maintenance Activities • Line Stations Activities • Maintenance Crew Skill Requirements

  9. Functions That Control Maintenance • Any maintenance that is identified in the airline’s maintenance program, plus any additional requirements for modification, upgrade, or maintenance deferred from earlier checks, are controlled by PP&C. • The MCC coordinates all maintenance activity, scheduled or unscheduled, for the aircraft in service with the applicable M&E organization and with the fight operations.

  10. Maintenance Control Center Responsibilities • The MCC responsibilities are • Complete all daily checks on designated aircraft. • Perform transit or turnaround maintenance on aircraft as needed. • Coordinate servicing of these aircraft. • Troubleshoot maintenance problems and schedule repairs in the allotted turnaround time or defer maintenance until a more appropriate time. • Coordinate with various departments-stores/materiel, engineering, inspection, planning, and other M&E organization-for assistance in resolving maintenance problems at the home base or out station.

  11. Coordinate with flight operations for the maintenance, deferral of maintenance, functional check flight, aircraft ferry permits, whenever the schedule may be impacted. • Track all aircraft during flight to determine their location, maintenance requirements, and status. • Coordinate maintenance at outstations with other airlines or approved third-party contractors as necessary. • Collect log pages of any in-flight engine shutdown, bird strikes, lighting strikes, or any emergencies that require an aircraft to return from flight and or any ground interruptions.

  12. Line Maintenance Operation-General • When the aircraft arrives at the gate, normal services will be provided, as well as the exchange of passengers, their baggage, and any cargo.

  13. Aircraft Logbook • The aircraft logbook is a type of document that is required by the FAA and the airline to document any maintenance discrepancies. • The aircraft maintenance department is responsible for keeping the logbook up to date, which includes recording of such information as total fight hours and cycles when fixing an aircraft’s maintenance discrepancy.

  14. Ramp and Terminal Operations • Transiting aircraft are the subject of a lot of attention at any airport, and that attention is usually concentrated in a short ( usually 30 min ) time span called the turnaround. • During the turnaround phase all that is done is to make sure that the aircraft is ready for the next flight.

  15. Flight handling • The main purpose of flight handling is to move passengers, their baggage, and/or any carried cargo off and on the aircraft as necessary.

  16. Flight line(preflight and post flight) • The preflight inspection must be accomplished on the aircraft’s first flight of the day. • The preflight inspection usually consists of: • Exterior safety • Exterior preflight inspection • Cabin safety inspection • Flight deck equipment location • Flight deck safety scan

  17. Other Line Maintenance Activities • After Line Maintenance is complete the crew does other activities like doing a 48 hour check. • Some of their checks are: • Check brakes for condition • Check tail skid shock popup indicator • Test escape slide squib on test panel • Check positive pressure relief valves for indication that valves have opened

  18. Maintenance Crew Skill Requirements • It is often thought that, because the simple nature of the work (turnaround maintenance and servicing) the line maintenance unit can be manned by the newer, less experienced personnel. • This is False • The crews assigned to line maintenance must be well qualified in their profession. • Crews must be familiar with all aircraft types within the airline’s fleet.
