CORPORATE COMMITMENT
This Exposition defines the organisation and procedures upon which the Competent Authority (Georgian
CAD) approval of airline Georgian Airways, under ICAO Annex 6, Chapter 8 and JAR-OPS 1 is based.
These procedures are approved by the undersigned and must be complied with, as applicable, in order to
ensure that all maintenance of Georgian Airways fleet is carried out on time to an approved standard.
It is accepted that these procedures do not override the necessity of complying with any new or amended
regulation published by the Competent Authority from time to time where these new or amended
regulations are in conflict with these procedures.
It is understood that the Competent Authority will approve this organisation whilst the Competent Authority
is satisfied that the procedures are being followed. It is understood that the Competent Authority reserves
the right to suspend, vary or revoke the maintenance system approval of the organisation, as applicable, if
the Competent Authority has evidence that procedures are not followed and the standards not upheld.
It is further understood that suspension or revocation of the approval of the maintenance system would
invalidate the Air Operator Certificate (AOC).
Where tasks are delegated throughout this manual to EASA Part-145 approved organisation, Georgian
Airways will not be relived from its overall responsibility. Also in case technical services, including but not
limited to engineering and planning activities, are contracted to other organisations, Georgian Airways
will not be relived from its responsibilities.
As the person having overall responsibility for the Company, I recognise flight safety as a prime
consideration at all times and I commit to provide full support to improve safety culture within the Company.
I also commit to provide full compliance with quality and work safety requirements.
Knowing that the success may only be achieved through the contribution of all staff, and that compliance
with procedures, quality standards, safety standards and regulations is the duty of all personnel, I strongly
encourage all personnel to support our policy and report any maintenance related errors and incidents they
observed. I also encourage all personnel to corporate with the quality auditors of Competent Authority and
Georgian Airways.
Additionally, I commit that Georgian Airways shall observe and follow the best practices to contribute in
the objective of our country to provide sustainable development and to preserve the environment for the
benefit of future generations.

It is the requirement of ICAO Annex 6, Chapter 11.5 and JAR-OPS 1.915 that:
(a) in the case of commercial air transport an operator must use an aircraft Technical Log System (TLS)
containing the following information for each aircraft:
Information about each flight necessary to ensure continued flight safety, and;
The current aircraft Certificate of Release to Service (CRS), and;
The current maintenance statement giving the aircraft maintenance status of what scheduled and
out of phase maintenance is next due except that the Competent Authority may agree to the
maintenance statement being kept elsewhere, and;
All outstanding deferred defects that affect the operation of the aircraft, and;
Any necessary guidance instructions on maintenance support arrangements.
(b) the aircraft technical log system and any subsequent amendment must be approved by the Competent
Authority.
The Technical Log in use with Georgian Airways is designed to allow recording of defects, malfunctions,
and maintenance performed on the aircraft to which it applies whilst the aircraft is operating between
scheduled maintenance inspections. In addition it includes maintenance information required by the
operating crew and is used for recording operating information relevant to flight safety.
The Technical Log of Georgian Airways comprises of Six Sections as required by JAR-OPS 1.915. The
information to be found in each section is as follows:
Section 1
Section 2
Section 3
Section 4
Section 5
Section 6
It is Georgian Airways policy to use Cabin Log Book (CLB), as part of the Aircraft Technical Log Book
(TLB) and Flight Log (FL), although they held in a separate binder.
1.1.1.2
Each aircraft is required to carry a Technical Log. Each Log must be completed by the relevant Flight Crew
and by maintenance personnel and will represent an immediate reflection of the serviceability state of the
aircraft to which it relates.
Section 1
This section details the registered operators name and address, the aircraft type, and the
registration markings.
Section 2
A copy of the current Aircraft Maintenance Statement, the Certificate of Release to Service

Section 4
This section contains the acceptable deferred defects (Hold Item List) pages which
contains a summary of defects, which have been carried forward from the TLB pages
and/or CLB pages on which they were first entered (but not rectified) where defects
allowable in accordance with the MEL/CDL. Time limits are set, with due regard to any
restrictions applicable, which control when the item must be rectified and cleared.
Section 5
This section details the maintenance support information. This includes information about
Used (Engine and APU Oil, Hydraulic) fluids and contact names and numbers.
Section 6
This section contains charts for the recording/mapping of damage to the aircraft.
The Technical Log System Books have the necessary number of copies to satisfy legal requirements, for a
copy to be left on the ground prior to flight and for the use of Engineering and Maintenance.
The TLB page is principal medium for recording service data and maintenance activity to ensure a
continued state of airworthiness of aircraft; all entry should be made by flight crew (PIC) and authorised
ground and maintenance personnel.
Flight Log is for recording flight data, data of flight crew, engine parameters data, fuelling data.
The Cabin Log Book should to be considered as a part of the Technical Log System and TLB.
All cabin defects which do not affect the airworthiness or safe operation of aircraft must be entered into the
CLB page relevant section.
Any item affecting the airworthiness or safe operation of the aircraft must be reported in TLB. Cabin crew
members (CDC-Chief De Cabin) must check with the PIC and/or maintenance personnel whether a defect
or malfunction affects the airworthiness or safe operation of the aircraft before reporting in the CLB.
It is responsibility of the CDC to ensure that any cabin defects become known to them are recorded in the
CLB after each flight.
MO personnel must ensure that there are no airworthiness items in the CLB and if there are such
items they must be transferred to TLB.
The TL system records the history of the aircraft. All entries in TL system must be current and can
not be erased. Errors corrected in TLB must be remaining readable and identifiable. All entries must
be accurate, legible and as concise as possible.
Note: Any corrections to entries in the TL system must be made by striking out the incorrect
entries, with cancellation of page or section of page if it need and writing the correct text above or
below them. The use of correction fluids is prohibited.
The acceptable deferred defects (ADD) recorded in the HIL page may refer to the MEL/CDL for allowable
equipment un-serviceability, and/or any maintenance and/or operational action/limitations/restrictions
acceptable in accordance with aircraft MM and/or SRM.
It can also be used for the recording of the installation of a loaned item of equipment. Inoperative labels
should be applied adjacent to any inoperative equipment/switches that are used by the flight crew as
appropriate for MEL items and CDL restrictions apply placards on the forward instrument panel for CDL
items.
In case of a defect or malfunction do not affect the airworthiness or safe operation of the aircraft (mostly
CLB defects ), but it is not possible to rectify immediately, these items also must transferred from CLB to
HIL page with reference Basis, to ensure that non-airworthiness defects are overlooked.
In the event that unscheduled maintenance and/or defect rectification is required to be carried out away
from main base by another Part-145 approved organisation, the contracted maintenance provider must be

The entry in the Action column of the TLB should be annotated: Defect carried forward to HIL page in
accordance with the MEL/CDL reference No. This entry should be made by the maintenance personnel.
The HIL pages must be suitably annotated with the details of the defect and a time limit must be specified
(date and time or remaining flight hours/cycles).
In the transit airports the PIC may carry forward a defect according MEL/CDL to fill and sign appropriate
section of Action column of the TLB. In this case maintenance personnel at home base should transfer
this defect to HIL page accordingly.
1.1.2.4
Before each flight Pilot in Command should review Hold Item List pages. Where the MEL item has been
entered by maintenance personnel and carried forward to HIL page, the decision to accept the carried
forward item allowed by the MEL/CDL remains under responsibility of the pilot in command. This
acceptance of any open deferred items is indicated by his/her signature on the TLB page in the Captains
Acceptance space.
1.1.2.5
The time limit for the defect rectification is specified in the aircraft Technical log, section 4 (Hold Item List) in
Flight Hours/Cycles/Calendar time so that the defect rectification may be performed before the specified
limit. Maintenance or ground personnel after each flight day and during pre-flight inspection should review
HIL, before release aircraft.
1.1.2.6
Normally all deferred defects will be cleared within the rectification interval specified in the MEL. Subject to
the approval of the Authority MEL time limit (rectification interval) B, C and D may be extend for the same
duration as specified in the MEL, provided:
A description of specific duties and responsibilities for controlling extensions is established and
accepted by the Authority;
The operator only grants a one time extension of the applicable interval;
The Authority is notified of any extension granted within a timescale acceptable to the Authority;
Rectification is accomplished at the earliest opportunity.
An extension should be applied for the Technical Director to the Quality Assurance Manager. The QAM will
assess the reason for extension of rectification interval and if the circumstances are considered acceptable
will make application to the Authority stating:
If the concession request is granted the reason and approval number of the concession must be quoted in

RELIABILITY PROGRAMMES
Airline Georgian Airways is authorized to operate its airplane under approved Aircraft Maintenance
Program (AMP). This program combines the functions of inspection and maintenance to fulfil of Georgian
Airways total maintenance needs.
Maintenance Programme of Georgian Airways based upon the Maintenance Review Board Report, the
type certificate holders Maintenance Planning Document and Chapter 5 of the Maintenance Manual, (i.e. it
is the Manufacturers recommended Maintenance Programme). AMP is made up of various elements,
including Reliability Program.Competent Authority approval of the GA Reliability Program is indicated the
Operations Specifications for airplane type operated.
The basis for the effective analysis is through the constant performance monitoring of the aircraft, engine,
equipment and components during its normal operational service. The topics of these monitoring is to
analyse of effectiveness of maintenance programme and amended when necessary.
Statistical reports are produced on a regular basis for evaluation and diagnosis by these organisations and
manufacturer in liaison of Georgian Airways. This information is used for the review, development, and
possible amendment of the Aircraft Maintenance Programme and Service Bulletin Evaluation, Reliability
and Safety.
The Reliability Program is based on the principles set forth in the FAA Advisory Circular 120-17A, entitled
Maintenance Control by Reliability Methods.
The Reliability Program of Georgian Airways is event-reporting system based on performance values
experienced under actual operating conditions. It provides a means of measuring the performance of
airplane systems and components, and comparing the performance to predetermined levels of acceptable
performance.
The even-reporting system, and analysis of the data from the system, permits the rapid identification of
adverse trends. If systems and components do not meet acceptable levels of performance, an alert is
issued and an investigation is initiated to assess the problems and initiate corrective actions.
Non-alert programs are in place to monitor the performance of airplane components and systems that do
not experience a statistically significant number of repetitive events.
Reliability denotes dependability or stability. Reliability applies to the dependability or stability of an airplane
system or component. A system or component is considered reliable if it follows an expected pattern of
behaviour. Acceptable reliability is maintained by a properly designed and executed maintenance program.
The effectiveness of Georgian Airways AMP is measured by the Reliability Program. The AMP is adjusted
when reliability standards are not met. This process is essential element of the Reliability Program.
The Reliability Program monitors the performance of fleet of airplanes operated by Georgian Airways.
Events monitored by the Reliability Program include:
Unscheduled maintenance;
Engine/component removals and failures;
Significant findings;
Delays and cancellations.
The Reliability Program also monitors the effectiveness of Georgian Airways scheduled maintenance and
assures the continuous optimisation of the AMP. The Reliability Program uses industry-accepted methods
for changing Maintenance Program. The Program applies the Maintenance Steering Group-2 (MSG-2)
preventive maintenance processes (Hard Time, On Condition, and Condition Monitoring) for component
maintenance.

and passenger baggage is loaded correctly and securely fastened into the aircraft using the approved
fastening method and the correct type approved aircraft baggage loading equipment.
On completion of the cargo/baggage loading and prior to flight, an inspection of the aircraft for secure doors
and a check for damage, which may affect the continued serviceability or airworthiness of the aeroplane
should always be carried out by the flight and/or ground (Line maintenance) crew.
Any damage caused or observed or non-compliance with standard ground handling procedures, must be
reported.
The accomplishment of all ground handling activities and associated procedures will be subject to a Quality
Audit Surveillance in conjunction with JAR OPS 1.900.

The overall responsibility for the correct type quality and quantity of fuel delivered to Georgian Airways
aircraft, in accordance with the approved procedures remains with the operator. This responsibility
includes ensuring that the contracted Fuel Company is approved to supply and deliver fuel to aircraft in
accordance with Requirements. Individual responsibility for the correct fuel type/quantity/quality as
delivered to the aircraft is vested in the Captain of the aircraft for the intended flight.
In general the refuelling requirements on Georgian Airways aircraft is carried out by contracted fuel
supply companies in accordance with the Standard Ground Handling Agreements (SFHA) as published by
the International Air Transport Association (IATA) and their own company procedures. The Ground (Line
maintenance) personnel or Flight Crew member monitors the refuelling operations by contracted agents.
They must ensure that compliance with procedures are being adhered to, that the fuel supplier has been
checked free of water and other contaminants (by sampling) that the correct fuel load is uplifted according
to the aircraft fuel loading displacement charts and the relevant fuel, caps/dipsticks/panels are securely
replaced on completion.
A record in the aircraft Technical Log of the fuel quantity uplifted and the total amount on board aircraft
must be made and certified by an approved person.
Water contamination checks should be made on the aircraft in accordance with Maintenance Programme
requirements, before and after the fuelling operation.
Any discrepancy observed, damage sustained or excessive contamination from supplier etc. must be
reported.
The accomplishment of all ground refuelling operations and their associated procedures will be subject to
Quality audit surveillance in compliance with JAR OPS 1.900.

The overall responsibility for the control/removal of snow, ice, dust and sand contamination to an approved
standard from Georgian Airways aircraft, prior to departure of the intended flight, in accordance with the
approved procedures remains with the Operator. This responsibility includes ensuring that the contracted
company is approved to carry out the de-icing/anti-icing of the aircraft in accordance with Authority
requirement.
The control of snow, ice, dust and sand contamination before flight is the responsibility of the pilot in
command (PIC). He/she will take whatever steps they consider necessary to ensure the aircraft is free from
such contamination before flight.
1.11.5.1
In general the control of snow and ice requirements on Georgian Airways aircraft during cold weather
conditions is carried out by contracted approved maintenance/handling companies in accordance with the
Standard Ground Handling Agreements (SGHA) as published by the International Air Transport Association
(IATA) and their own company procedures.
The approved ground (Line maintenance) or flight crewmember is to monitor the de-icing/anti-icing
operations by contracted agents. They must ensure that compliance with procedures is being adhered to,
that the aeroplane is satisfactorily cleared of snow and ice according to the conditions prevailing, that a
certificate is issued from the de-icing company stating fluids used, the type of mix and the start and stop
times of the operation. Compliance with the correct holdover times is of particular importance.
A record in the aircraft Technical Log of the de-icing/anti-icing operation in accordance with the certificate
supplied must be made and certified by an approved person. The certificate must be retained for record
purposes.
If the aircraft is delayed in its departure for its intended flight the aeroplane may need to be de-iced/antiiced again. In all cases a contact monitor for the re-accumulation of snow or ice must be carried out.
Any discrepancy observed, damaged sustained or non-compliance with procedures must be reported.
The accomplishment of all ground de-icing/anti-icing operations and their associated procedures will be
subject to Quality audit surveillance in accordance with JAR OPS 1.900.
1.11.5.2
This type of contamination would normally be expected in those climates where hot and dry conditions
prevail, although it can be encountered in almost most airports in certain climatic or operational conditions.
Contamination can be caused by strong winds, engine jet exhausts, landing on dusty airstrips etc.
During any of these climatic or operational conditions the ground (Line maintenance) and/or flight
crewmember is to monitor the condition of the aeroplane. They must ensure that contamination through
dust and sand is not prevalent. They should pay particular attention to those areas of the aircraft where
accumulations could build up at flap and flying controls recesses, inlet ducts, engine intakes, wheel bays,
pitot/static vents etc.
If any excess dust and/or sand contaminant is evident it should be removed before the next flight in
accordance with the Maintenance Manual.
An entry in the Technical Log of the conditions and the actions taken must be made for the attention of
Technical Records.
Full details are to be found in the Georgian Airways Ramp Service Manual, RSM-03.

AIRCRAFT WEIGHING
According the requirements of JAR-OPS 1.605 an operator shall ensure that during any phase of
operation, the loading, mass and centre of gravity of the aeroplane complies with the limitations specified in
the approved Aeroplane Flight Manual and it must be established by actual weighting.
The requirement for the mandatory weighing of the aircraft that Georgian Airways operates is as stated
in the Georgian Airways Approved Maintenance Programme (AMP) for the aircraft concerned.
Currently this is a maximum of every 4 years for each aircraft operated.
In addition the accumulated effects of modifications and repairs on the mass and balance must be
accounted for and properly documented.
Aeroplane must be reweighed if the effect of modifications and/or repairs on the mass and balance is not
accurately known.
Aircraft weighing is performed by a suitably approved maintenance organisation.

with such department(s) before the quality assurance manager, or nominated quality auditor confirms such
dates in the report. The relevant department(s) is required to rectify findings and inform the Quality
Assurance Department of such rectification.
In case of level 1 findings rectification must be made immediately.
The Quality Assurance Manager will have regular meetings with The Accountable Manager after
performing quality audits. Technical Director and other management staff on demand should attend these
meetings. During meetings will be discussed audit reports and progress of corrective actions against nonconformities. QAM will issue Meeting Minutes info.
NOTE: The Accountable manager must be immediately informed in cases of level 1 finding or where
corrective actions have not been performed within the given time schedule.
The documentation of quality audit and quality feedback/corrective action follow up system should be
retained for a period of at least 2 years.

The purpose of maintenance contractor selection procedures is to maintain a high maintenance safety and
quality
standard
within
the
company
and
to
ensure
that
contracted/subcontracted
aircraft/engine/component maintenance and ground handling is performed in accordance with the legal
requirements and no unapproved aircraft parts and materials are used.
Maintenance contractor selection should not be limited to the verification that the contractor is appropriately
approved for the type of aircraft, engines, equipment and components, but also that the contractor has the
industrial capacity to undertake the required maintenance and complies with applicable regulations and
safety and quality requirements.
This selection procedure should preferably include a contract review process in order to ensure that:
Products (parts, material or service) may only be purchased if the product is in compliance with the legal
requirements and established quality standards of Georgian Airways.
Note:
Services may include: aircraft/engine/component maintenance and overhaul or repair,
aircraft ground handling etc.
Suppliers and/or subcontractors/contractors (vendors, manufacturers, maintenance organisation etc.) are
evaluated to be sure their ability to meet requirements and quality standards. The evaluation is carried out
by the Quality Assurance Manager who decides for the necessary audits in order to include, maintain or
remove the suppliers and/or subcontractors/contractors (vendors, manufacturers, maintenance
organisation etc.) from list of contractors and/or approved supplier list.
Suppliers can be separated into 3 categories as follows:
Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEM's)
Approved Maintenance Organisation
Parts Suppliers
Original Equipment Manufacturers are not required to be audited prior to placing orders although the same
level of care is required when parts are being received into stores.
Maintenance Organisation must be approved by the Airworthiness authority of the country concerned and
should be listed in Part-145 (JAR-145) listed organisations, before they can be considered. Before
selection Engineering and Planning Department shall request from MO its Approval Certificates with scope
of work and capability list. Maintenance contractor (MO) should be approved and audits carried out as
considered necessary by the Quality Assurance Manager. As soon as Maintenance contractor approved
and contract for maintenance signed, appropriate (introduction) Training will be provided by Georgian
Airways in company MCM-MME, maintenance procedures and approved Maintenance Data for
contracted Maintenance Organization staff. For the Maintenance Provider/Contractor selection the form
(A9/ENG/044) may be used if it necessary.
Part and Material Suppliers prior to being contracted as a supplier to provide components or parts and
material, either new or used, assessment is to be made by the Logistic Department and the Quality
Assurance Department in respect of level of effectiveness of the quality system used by the supplier.
Before selection Logistic Department shall request from supplier their Certificates and send to them
Supplier Evaluation Form (A9/INV/001) for completion. Self-Audit information from supplier also may be
used for evaluation and selection. A list of suppliers shall be raised using the above criteria by the Logistic

means that GA remains responsible for being satisfied that such function, activity or task was carried out as
required by GA.
Maintenance contract defines the duties of both parties and specify precisely the content of the information
to be exchanged between them so that:
The Airline (GA) may be able to control that the Part-145 (JAR-145) MO actually performs the
maintenance due on time and in accordance approved standards.
The place(s) where base and line maintenance will be performed should be specified.
The maintenance contract should specify under which conditions the Part-145 (JAR-145) MO may
subcontract tasks to a third party (whether this third party is Part-145 (JAR-145) approved/accepted
or not).
The maintenance programme under which the maintenance has to be performed should be
specified.
The terms of contract should include a provision allowing the operator (GA) to perform quality
surveillance upon the Part-145 (JAR-145) MO.
The airworthiness data used for the purpose of contract must be specified.
The contract should specify in which condition airline GA must send the aircraft/engine/component
to the Part-145 (JAR-145) MO.
The contract should specify what information the airline is responsible to provide to the Part-145
(JAR-145) MO, such as due date of the AD, the selected means of compliance, the decision to
embody Service Bulletins (SBs) or modifications, etc. In addition the type of information the airline
will need in return to complete the control of ADs, SBs and modification status should be
specified.
The contract should specify whether a particular type of material or component comes from the
airline (GA) or the Part-145 (JAR-145) MO store, which type of component is pooled, etc.
For planning scheduled maintenance the support documentation to be given to the Part-145 (JAR145) MO should be specified.

INTRODUCTION
Requirement
Winter month weather conditions require additional procedures to maintain serviceability and safe flight
characteristics. Winter brings snow and ice conditions which, unless adequately addressed, may impair
the operational characteristics of the aircraft.
When freezing conditions are forecasted, consideration should be given to draining all the potable
water and toilet fluid contents from the aircraft.
During high wind velocity conditions, which may occur any time of the year, precautions must be taken
to reduce the possibility of damage to aircraft and equipment. During heavy and/or persistent rain,
precautions must be taken to ensure that excess amounts of water do not enter the aircraft and cause
damage to equipment.
Whenever the aircraft are parked for prolonged periods at airports that are susceptible to sand or dust
contamination, precautions must be taken to prevent contamination to aircraft systems wherever
possible.
1.2
Policy
It is Georgian Airways policy to ensure that the staff takes every necessary precaution to deal with
winter and inclement weather conditions in accordance with these procedures.
1.3
Responsibility
The Flight Crew and/or authorised personnel are responsible to ensure that the aircraft is correctly deiced prior to accepting the aircraft for service. The staff is responsible for monitoring the de-icing/antiicing operation, and ensuring that the correct fluid is applied. Certification as such is made in the
Aircraft Technical Log Book page, together with details of the start and end time of the operation, and
the mix, and type of fluid used. The de-icing/anti-icing operation is contracted out to appropriately
approved organisations.
All personnel engaged in de-icing/anti-icing must ensure that they are acquainted with any prevailing
local airport regulations. Particular care must be taken to establish the areas of the airport where deicing may take place in order that local drainage and pollution controls are observed.
During periods of high wind and rain it is the responsibility of the certifying staff to ensure that the
aircraft is correctly parked and chocked, and that all ground equipment is clear of the aircraft. During
freezing conditions below a certain temperature the aircraft potable water and toilet fluid should be
drained.
If the aircraft is parked for prolonged periods at an airport where the aircraft is susceptible to sand and
dust contamination, vital areas must be blanked off.
When an aircraft is parked down route where no maintenance support facilities are available the flight
crew shall comply with the above.
2.
PROCEDURE
2.1
Freezing Conditions
Whenever De-icing and/or Anti-icing operations are considered necessary the Aircraft Maintenance
Manual should be consulted (Aircraft Maintenance Manual (AMM) 12-33-01 and 12-33-02 refer for

Definitions
2.1.2.1 De-icing
A procedure by which frost, ice, slush, and snow is removed from an aircraft in order to provide
uncontaminated surfaces.
2.1.2.2 Anti-icing
A precautionary procedure that provides protection against the formation of frost or ice and
accumulations of snow on treated surfaces of the aircraft for a limited period of time.
2.1.2.3 De/Anti-icing
De/anti-icing is a combination of the two operations described above and can be performed in either
one or two steps. With one-step de/anti-icing the fluid used to de-ice the aircraft remains on the aircraft
surfaces to provide a limited anti-icing capability. Two- step de/anti-icing consists of two distinct steps.
The first step, de-icing, is followed by the second step, anti-icing, as a separate fluid application.
2.1.2.4 Holdover Time
The holdover time is the estimated time that the de-icing/anti-icing fluid will prevent frost, ice and snow
from forming or accumulating on the protected surfaces of the aircraft under certain weather conditions.
2.1.2.5 Freezing Conditions
Defined as an Outside Ambient Temperature (OAT) below 3 degrees Celsius and visible moisture in
any form (such as fog, rain, snow, sleet or ice crystals) or when standing water slush, ice or snow is
present on the runway.
2.1.2.6 Frost (Including Hoar Frost)
A crystallised deposit, formed from water vapour on surfaces which are at or below 0 degrees Celsius.
2.1.2.6 Steady Snow
Continuous precipitation in the form of ice crystals or flakes, which may accumulate on aircraft
surfaces.
2.1.2.7 Freezing Fog
Defined as a cloud of super cooled water droplets that freeze upon impact to form a deposit of ice on
objects in cold weather conditions. The visibility at ground level is generally reduced to less than 1km
during this condition.
2.1.2.8 Freezing Rain
Precipitation of liquid water particles, which freeze upon impact with, exposed surfaces and objects.
Precipitation consists of drops of water greater than 0.5mm diameter.
2.1.2.9 Rain on a Cold Soaked Wing
Water droplets from rainfall forming sheeting on the wing upper surface when the temperature of the
aircraft wing is at or below 0 degrees Celsius. This phenomenon can occur at ambient temperatures up
to +15 degrees Celsius and is critical.
2.1.3
Process
Personal should ensure that anti-icing/de-icing operations appropriate to the conditions are carried out
prior to departure and that inspections indicate that all significant deposits of hoar frost, ice and snow
have been removed satisfactorily from flight controls, wings and stabilisers.

If conditions are severe and the aircraft is to remain on the ground for a length of time that would allow
a build up of ice and snow, consideration should be given to anti-icing the aircraft as soon as possible
after landing.
Prior to departure the fuselage and vertical stabiliser surfaces should be free from ice and snow. Thin
hoar frost on the upper fuselage is permissible in accordance with the AMM 12-33-01. Reference
should always be made to the AMM.
De-icing fluid must not be sprayed into engine or APU inlets, exhausts, engine thrust reversers, probe
inlets, static ports, scoops, vents, drains, etc, but all must be clear of ice and snow. Should it be
necessary for the engines or APU to be running, the air conditioning packs and bleed valves must be
closed.
Hot fluid must not be sprayed directly onto cold windscreens/windows.
When performing de/anti-icing, ice and snow must not be forced into openings around flight control
surfaces.
After the removal of ice and snow operate all flight controls through their full range of movement. Have
a person on the ground verify that all surfaces do move full travel. If you think that seals are frozen or
there are blockages, then move the control surfaces manually before you apply power.
Note: It is essential that flight deck personnel are notified prior to moving any control surface
manually.
Make sure that there is no ice, snow or slush collected in the landing gear or wheel well areas.
Make sure that all drains are clear and not blocked.
Make sure that the Angle of Attack sensors are clear of ice and ice and or snow and that sensors move
freely.
Large deposits of dry snow on wing surfaces etc, maybe removed with brooms.
The Fuselage maybe cleared using ropes or fabric laid over the fuselage and see-sawed over the top
surface, care must be taken not to damage equipment and surface finishes.
Care must be taken not to damage equipment and antennas, when using manual methods of
clearance. A check should be made of all aerials/antennas for damage after the fuselage has been
cleared.
De-icing details are to be entered into the Technical Log Book Page in the allotted space.
Holdover protection is achieved by a layer of anti-icing fluid remaining on and protecting the aeroplane
surfaces for a period of time.
With a one-step de-icing / anti-icing procedure, the holdover time begins at the commencement of deicing / anti-icing. With a two-step procedure, the hold over time begins at the commencement of the
second (anti-icing) step.
Should frozen deposits form or accumulate on an aeroplane surface, the holdover time will have run
out.
2.1.4
De/Anti-icing
NOTE: DE-/ANTI -ICING APPLICATION HAS TO BE CO-ORDINATE WITH PIC AND GROUND OPS
AND CARRIED OUT AS NEAR TO DEPARTURE TIME AS POSSIBLE TO ACQUIRE MAXIMUM
HOLDOVER TIME.
ATTENTION:
THE HORIZONTAL STABILIZER MUST BE POSITIONED IN NOSE DOWN
POSITION (STABILIZER LEADING EDGE FULL UP) BEFORE DE-/ANTIICING!
2.1.4.1 De-icing and inspection after landing with slash on runways
The crew will note in TLB that flaps/slats are not fully retracted before inspection and removal of ice and
snow.

Rear spar area of the wing (above and in front of the flaps)
After inspection, areas free of ice and snow retract flaps/slats, sign off inspection and functional test in
TLB.
2.1.4.2 Necessity for de-/anti-icing
All surfaces including fuselage, wings, flaps, leading edge devices, ailerons, horizontal and vertical
stabilizers, elevators and rudders must be free from frost, ice or snow.
This is referred to as the clean airplane concept.
NOTE: A layer of frost 1/8-inch thick or less on the lower wing surfaces (in the spar area) is permitted if
it is caused by very cold fuel.
Thin hoar frost is permitted on the top surface of the fuselage if all constant thickness with a sharp
crystalline texture. Hoar frost it thin, when markings, paint lines or letters are still visible. Carefully
examine the top of the wings to determine clear ice. It is possible that the clear ice can only be found by
touching with hand.
Clear ice must be removed before take-off.
2.1.4.3 Anti-icing for extended transits or parking the aircraft
When any precipitation or frost is expected, protect clean surface of aircraft with ISO type II or type IV
fluids (see OM, Part A, Chapter 08.02.04).
CAUTION: THE REPEATED APPLICATION OF TYPE II OR TYPE IV, WITHOUT THE
SUBSEQUENT APPLICATION OF TYPE I OR HOT WATER, MAY CAUSE A RESIDUE
REHYDRATE AND FREEZE UNDER CERTAIN TEMPERATURE, HIGH HUMIDITY AND/OR RAIN
CONDITIONS. THIS RESIDUE MAY BLOCK OR IMPEDE CRITICAL FLIGHT CONTROL SYSTEMS.
THIS RESIDUE MAY REQUIRE REMOVAL.
2.1.4.4 Post de-/anti icing check (only on crew request)
After completion of de/anti-icing check the following:
All surfaces including fuselage, wings, flaps, leading edge devices, ailerons, horizontal and
vertical stabilizers, elevators and rudders must be free from frost, ice or snow.
Carefully examine the tip of the wings to determine clear ice by touching with hand
Rear spar area of the wing (above and in front the flaps)
Engine air intakes and fan ducts. Turn fan by hand & check for free rotation and fan blades free
of ice
Pitot tubes, static ports and sensors are clear of ice and snow

The Boeing 737 is made to be resistant to high velocity ground winds from all angles without mooring.
However, if high velocity winds are expected, certain parking tasks should always be performed. The
AMM Chapter 101300 and 102100 describes in detail what actions are required. The basic actions
required would be to apply the park brake, double chock the aircraft nose wheel and main wheels, set
the horizontal stabiliser to zero pilot units, and ensure the flaps are up. Engine intake and exhaust
blanks should be installed as required.
Consideration should also be given to the amount of fuel that is on board the aircraft. If high velocity
winds are forecast in excess of 30 knots refuel the aircraft to full wings fuel, ensuring that less fuel is
not required for the next flight.
All ground equipment should be moved well away from the aircraft to prevent contact with the aircraft
should the aircraft move.
2.3
If heavy/persistent rain is forecasted then all necessary precautions must be taken to prevent water
from entering the aircraft. All doors and hatches must be kept closed as is practical. Particular care
must be taken if the aircraft is parked for extended periods.
2.3
This type of contamination would normally be expected in those climates where hot and dry conditions
prevail, although it can be encountered in almost most airports in certain climatic or operational
conditions. Contamination can be caused by strong winds, engine jet exhausts, landing on dusty
airstrips etc.,
During any of these climatic or operational conditions the approved ground personnel and/or flight
crewmember is to monitor the condition of the aeroplane. They must ensure that contamination through
dust and sand is not prevalent. They should pay particular attention to those areas of the aircraft where
accumulations could build up e.g. flap and flying controls recesses, inlet ducts, engine intakes,
compressor fan blades, wheel bays, pitot/static vents etc.,
If any excess dust and/or sand contaminant is evident it should be removed before the next flight in
accordance with the Maintenance Manual.
If the aircraft is to be parked at an airport for any length of time where dust and sand contamination is a
possibility, then the following actions must be taken:
A check should be carried out prior to flight to ensure that all blanks and covers have been removed
and that all exposed recesses are not contaminated.

Fuelling activities on the companies aircraft are performed by one of the following:
a) Georgian Airways authorised personnel.
b) Operating Flight Crew.
2.
PROCEDURE
2.1
General
To ensure an accurate means of monitoring and cross checking of fuel loads, the aircraft will be
refuelled in accordance with this procedure. There must be a strict NO SMOKING policy observed at all
times.
Normally fuelling operations must be carried out in the open air with tank vents and fuelling equipment
not less than 15 metres (50 feet) from inhabited buildings, other than those parts constructed for the
purpose of direct loading or unloading of aircraft, such as air bridges, and only in areas approved by the
relevant airport authority.
The Fuelling Zone should be regarded as extending not less than 6 metres (20 feet) radially from the
filling and venting points on the aircraft and the fuelling equipment and, when applicable, from the
hydrant valve in use for the fuelling. When defuelling is taking place, the vehicle will be venting and will
generate a fuelling zone radiating from the tank vent.
A calculation of the amount of fuel to be uplifted must be made prior to fuelling, and any variation
between the calculated uplift and actual uplift must be within the prescribed limits as
laid down in
the AMM.
Water Drain Checks on each aircraft fuel tank are to be carried out in accordance with the requirements
as laid down in the AMM.
Upon completion of the fuelling operation, it must be established that the correct amounts of fuel are on
board the aircraft prior to departure.
2.2
2.2.1
It must be established that the correct type and grade of fuel is on board the fuelling vehicle to
used.

To ensure and maintain a high quality standard within the Maintenance Organisation and to ensure that
supplier and/or contracted/subcontracted aircraft maintenance is performed in accordance with the legal
requirements and no unapproved aircraft parts and materials are used, defined principles must be followed.
2.1.2
Principles/Procedure
Products (parts, material or service) may only be purchased if the product is in compliance with the legal
requirements and established quality standards of Georgian Airways.
Suppliers and/or subcontractors/contractors (vendors, manufacturers etc.) are evaluated to be sure their
ability to meet requirements and quality standards. The procedure defines the requirements for controlling
the quality of aircraft, components, materials and services procured before an order is placed by evaluating
any prospective suppliers before they are placed on the Approved Suppliers List approved by the QAM and
used by the Logistic Manager; It also ensures that when it is considered that an approved supplier is failing
to meet the required standards, then a mechanism exists to evaluate the suppliers performance, and if
necessary, remove this company from the Approved Suppliers List.
Parts and materials utilised for aircraft and aircraft component maintenance must be approved either by the
respective design organisation or by the authorities.
No such part or material shall be purchased without appropriate documentation.
Approved in this context means not only that the part or material is airworthy, the part or material must be
also eligible to be installed in the specific aircraft, engine or component under a type certificate or
production approval.
Parts or material not manufactured under a Type Certificate or Production Certificate may only be
purchased from the manufacturer (subcontractor) if the subcontractor is authorised by the Type Certificate
Holder to deliver the part or material direct to the customer.
Parts or material purchased from other sources must be accompanied with appropriate documentation,
which confirms the part or material has been manufactured by an approved organisation (Part-145 (JAR145)).
Any supplier/subcontractor must be assessed and selected on the basis of his ability to meet requirements,
including the quality system and any specific quality assurance requirements.

2.2.1
General
The purpose is to ensure, that from outside contractors are received high quality aircraft component and
materials. Acceptance/inspection activities are performed in order to verify that the specific requirements
for aircraft components and materials are met.
2.2.2
Principles
Any product (aircraft components, materials, etc.) which are received from outside contractors must be
inspected before entering into the stores system of Georgian Airways Maintenance Organisation.
Aircraft component and materials inspections must be carried out to ensure the product has been
manufactured in accordance with the specification which may include, besides the technical specification,
also legal and warranty aspects. For new Parts Care should be exercised in ensuring compliance with
airworthiness directives and the status of any life limited parts fitted to the aircraft component as well as
Critical Design Configuration Control Limitations. (CDCCL)
Incoming products (aircraft components and materials) received by the company for usage within final
products shall be subject to an incoming inspection or test by authorised personnel to ensure that such
products conform with the specific requirements.
The receiving inspection of components, parts and materials used for aircraft shall ensure compliance with
the legal requirements.
The aircraft components identified in accordance with Part-145 (JAR-145) by:
A certificate for release to service (completed EASA Form one (JAA Form one) or
approved/accepted equivalent: FAA Form 8130-3 or Canadian TC Form 24-0078).
Note: The PMP-02 takes into account the AMC 145.A.42 (a) concerning the JAA Form One validity.
A certificate of release to service must contain basic details of the maintenance carried out, the date such
maintenance was completed and the identity including authorisation reference of the approved
maintenance organisation or manufacturer and certifying staff issuing such a certificate.
Materials both raw and consumable should only be accepted when satisfied that it is to the required
specification. To be satisfied the material and/or its packaging should be marked with the specification and
where appropriate the batch number. All materials should be accompanied by documentation clearly
relating to the particular material and containing a conformity statement.
Regarding Part 145.A.42(c) it is noted that Georgian Airways Maintenance Organisation does not take the
opportunity to fabricate parts to be used in the course of undergoing work.
Georgian Airways takes into account the use of quarantine process in case of problems encountered
during reception of material.
Georgian Airways takes into account the use of GSAC form AC 131 in case of suspected unapproved
parts.

2.3.1
General
The purpose is to provide the guideline for storage, tagging and release of aircraft components and
materials to aircraft maintenance.
2.3.2
Principles
Some components and materials is subject to special conditions such as storage condition, segregation or
life etc. and this must be followed.
Manufacturers storage recommendations must be followed for aircraft components/materials.
All aircraft components wherever practicable remain packed in protective material to minimise damage and
corrosion during storage.
Every issue, release of aircraft components and materials has to be recorded and monitored by responsible
personnel. It is imperative that every issued part/material is clearly identified and matches the requisition.
The part/material has to be issued in the original-storage packing whenever possible and practical.
When spare parts are batched, the batch integrity is respected along the storage. For un batching, the
traceability is followed up by issuance of a true copy of the original Certificate of Conformance. The true
copy is signed by the Store Controller.
The Logistic Manager is responsible for keeping all serviceable parts in airworthy condition. It means he
must control and perform corrective action in order to respect all AD for store components by following the
recommendations of the Georgian Airways Engineering Department.
Shelf life control: the Store Controller checks the stock each month in order to identify the parts which shelf
life will expire during the following 3 months. The Store Controller withdraws any expired part/material and
places it in the quarantine area. The Logistic Manager takes decision concerning these parts/materials
(scraps send to some subcontractor for overhaul/repair, return to the manufacturer or to the owner). The
Store Controller informs the Duty Logistic about the parts withdrawn.
In case of a bulky heavy material the storage is decided by the Logistic Manager with acceptance of the
Technical Director.
An inventory is performed every year by the Logistic Manager, supervised by the Sales & Contract
Manager.

protection from weather elements and special requirements are observed.
2.7.2
Principles
Facilities used for aircraft maintenance together with office accommodation should be provided for the
management, planning, technical records, quality or certifying staff so that they can carry out their
designated tasks in a manner that contributes to good aircraft maintenance standards.
The working environment must be such that the effectiveness of personnel is not impaired:
Temperatures should be maintained such that personnel can carry out required tasks without
undue discomfort.
Dust and any airborne contamination should be kept to a minimum and not be permitted to reach a
level in the work tasks area where visible aircraft/component surface contamination is evident.
Where dust/other airborne contamination results in visible surface contamination, all susceptible
systems should be sealed until acceptable conditions re-established.
Lighting should be such as to ensure each inspection and maintenance tasks can be carried out
in an effective manner.
Noise levels are not be permitted to rise to the point of distracting personnel from carrying out
inspection tasks. Where it is impractical to control the noise source, such personnel should be
provided with the necessary personal equipment to stop excessive noise causing distraction during
inspection tasks.
The working environment for line maintenance should be such that the particular maintenance or
inspection task can be carried out without undue distraction. Where the working environment
deteriorates to an unacceptable level in respect of temperature, moisture, hail, ice, snow, wind,
light, dust/other airborne contamination, the particular maintenance or inspection tasks should be
suspended until satisfactory conditions are re-established.
Secure storage facilities should be provided for components, equipment, tool and material. Storage
facilities should be clean, well-ventilated and maintained at a constant dry temperature to minimise
the effects of condensation. Storage rocks should be strong enough to hold aircraft component.
Facilities and offices must be equipped with fire protection and where is such need with fire
warning system. Some of them (Storage facilities, archive, etc.) should have restricted entry.
Management personnel are responsible for development and follow up of relevant security
standards as well as keeping its personnel trained regarding the subject.
Specific equipment used in the working areas (stairs, etc.) must be safe for personnel and aircraft.
Working areas must be well organised and clean.
Working clothes are provided for the personnel dedicated into aircraft maintenance
The following are basic engineering practices that must be addressed at all times:
Proper engine and access stands are used at all times, portable tower systems are properly
erected with outriggers locked in correct positions and brakes (where fitted) are on". Ensure the
access equipment is serviceable prior to use and report any defects promptly. Ground equipment is
to be checked prior to use to ensure serviceability, cleanliness and suitability for the task to be
undertaken.
Engine cowling covers are to be used whenever working on engines with the lower cowling open;
blanks are to be fitted to any open aperture, to prevent the ingress of dirt etc. and cowlings cleaned
prior to fitting.
Solid waste material is disposed of promptly in the bins provided and not left on the floor or in drip
trays, as this creates an unnecessary fire hazard. All split fluids are cleared up and drip trays

emptied, ensure all workbenches are cleaned after use. Separate bins are provided for rags and
there is also a specific bin for disposing of hazardous waste containers such as oil and solvent tins,
paint cans etc.
Serviceable items removed from an aircraft are labelled using Component Identification Labels,
and blanked or bagged and placed on designated storage racks. During panel removal ensure all
fasteners are serviceable and are bagged and secured to the panel. If any fasteners are damaged,
replacement items should be both obtained from stores and placed with the panel for refit, or if not
available they should be placed on order to arrive in time, for panel refit.
Unserviceable items have U/S labels attached with details of the defect. They should be cleaned,
blanked or bagged to prevent the ingress of dirt/dust. They should be placed
on
designated
racking to await repair or be forwarded to stores for dispatch to a suitable repair/overhaul facility.
Grease guns are kept clean and positively marked with the approved contents to-prevent
contamination. All grease guns are to be returned to stores following use and any defects are to be
reported to the store man. Grease cans are to be kept in the Grease cabinet when not in use and
should always be returned uncontaminated with the lid securely fastened. Empty grease cans are
to he disposed of in the hazardous waste bin and a new can obtained from the stores.
Persons are not to walk on aircraft upper surfaces in poor weather conditions or with inappropriate
footwear, stay within walkways to prevent damage to upper fairing skins/structure. When working in
the cabin, aisle carpet runners are to be fitted and seats covered when interior work is in hand.
All special tooling, lifting and test equipment obtained from the tool store can only be obtained in
return for a tool tag. All equipment used is to be serviceable, correctly marked and in date for
calibration. No piece of equipment is to be used for anything other than that which it was designed
and it is only to be used in accordance with its instructions for use. Once finished with, the
equipment is to be returned to the tool store as soon as is practicable to help prevent loss or
damage. It is the user responsibility to check any equipment prior to use and to report any defects
to the store controller.

To comply with the M.A.401 APPENDIX I (Part-M) of (EC) No 2042/2003 and Part-145.A.45, it is required
to keep, amend and provide all airworthiness data and documentation to perform maintenance in
accordance with the approval.
2.8.2
Principles
The Georgian Airways Maintenance Organisation must hold and use applicable current maintenance data
in the performance of maintenance including modifications and repairs. Applicable means relevant to any
aircraft, aircraft component or process specified in the maintenance organisations approval class rating
schedule and in any associated capability list.
For the purpose of Part-145 applicable maintenance data is:
Any applicable requirement, procedure, operational directive or information issued by the authority
responsible for the oversight of the aircraft or component.
Any applicable airworthiness directive issued by the authority responsible for the oversight of the
aircraft or component.
Instructions for continuing airworthiness, issued by type certificate holders, supplementary type
certificate holders, any other organisation required to publish such data by Part-21 and in the case
aircraft or components from third countries the airworthiness data mandated by the authority
responsible for the oversight of the aircraft or component.
.
Any applicable standard, such as but not limited to, maintenance standard practices recognised by
the Agency as a good standard for maintenance.
When the MO modifies a maintenance instruction (More practical or more efficient manner to comply with;
inaccurate maintenance instruction; use of alternative tool) the type certificate holder is informed by the
QAM by e-mail.
The communication (traceability of the complete process) is retained by the QAM
Note: When the MO modifies maintenance instructions CDCCL linked tasks substitution of practices,
procedures, material and tooling are not allowed without written permission from the manufacturer or
engineering department who would most likely get the deviation authority from manufacturer.
Any modification of maintenance Instructions linked to CDCCL is an aircraft modification to be
approved i.a.w. Part-21.

Maintenance organisation should hold and use the following minimum maintenance data relevant to the
organisations approval class rating:
In addition for line maintenance with an approval class rating in category A-Aircraft, the Georgian Airways
maintenance organisation should hold and use the following approved data where published:
The MO must ensure that all applicable approved data is readily available for use when required by
maintenance personnel. Data being made available to personnel maintaining aircraft means that the data
should be available in close proximity to the aircraft being maintained.
Where computer and/or microfilm reader/printer are used the number of computer and/or microfilm
reader/printer should be sufficient in relation to the size of the work programme and ensure that the
computer and/or reader/printer can produce paper copies.
The MO must ensure that maintenance data controlled by the organisation is kept up to date.

The purpose of this procedure is to ensure that all repairs made on aircraft/aircraft component are
performed in accordance with Part-145.
2.9.2
Principles
When the need for defect rectification and/or repair action arise (during maintenance or specific demand
following a customer demand) the MO certifying staff will assess defect against the approved maintenance
data and will determine the corrective action to be taken if the defect is outside the limits of such
maintenance data.
This could involve:
Repair by replacement of damaged parts in accordance with MM and IPC,
Repair by other maintenance corrective action like cleaning, lubrication, servicing, adjustment, etc.
in accordance with MM, Troubleshooting Manual, SB, etc.,
Structural repair in accordance with SRM or other approved data when the defect is beyond the
SRM,
Modification in accordance with SB or other approved data.
Before to carry out the recommended corrective action the Line Maintenance Manager together with the
Sales & Contracts Manager review the contract passed with the Operator (contract, convention, bill of
order). Then the Production Planning prepares the work taking into account:
Note: this preparation phase generally involves the MO together with the Operator (Engineering) and the
eventual Subcontractor but remains under the responsibility of the MO regarding the Part-145 requirements

In all cases maintenance organisation must follow to principle standardisation of completion of all
maintenance documentation by maintenance personnel.
To record discrepancies during aircraft line maintenance (Weekly Check), MO may use NRC Non
Routine Card (Form No A9/ENG/015)-Special card Form for recording any discrepancies and rectification
actions.
This notwithstanding, NRC may be used during lower maintenance.
It is authorised MO personnel responsibilities to record, rectify and defer the discrepancies.
The following entries on NRCs are essential for further preparation and rectification:
Note: If the issuer can see that, due to its implications, the correction of a discrepancy will require more
extensive measures, the supervisor or shift leader is to be informed immediately.
All NRC should be registered in NRC REGISTER (Form A9/ENG/038) and in the Maintenance Summary
Control Sheet (Form A9/ENG/042) during Weekly checks, for control of NRC issues and status of them.
After rectification the performed work has to be recorded by issuing the following entries into the NRC:
Written off NRCs are to be collected for completion of the Maintenance Summary Control Sheet (Form
A9/ENG/042)
Completed NRCs are controlled via the Maintenance Summary Control Sheet and will be transferred to

2.14.1 General
It is the requirement Part-145.A.55 to record all details of maintenance carried out and retained them.
2.14.2 Principles
An operator and/or Part-145 approved maintenance organisation ensures following records are kept in a
form acceptable to the authority:
Properly executed and retained records provide owners, operators and maintenance personnel with
information essential in controlling unscheduled and scheduled maintenance, trouble shooting to eliminate
the need for re-inspection and rework to establish airworthiness.
The maintenance record can be either a paper or computer system or any combination of both.
Paper system uses robust material, which can withstand normal handling and filing.
The records are stored in a safe way with regard to fire, flood and theft.
The MO retains the maintenance records covering the last two years in order to be able to transfer these
records in case it terminates its operation.
In case of lost or destroyed record the MO reconstructs the record with the remaining information it can
obtain and presented to the Authority for eventual acceptance.
Computer system may be used to control maintenance and/or record details of maintenance work carried
out. Computer system has one backup system at least, which has to be updated within 24 hours of any
maintenance at least. Each terminal is required to contain program safeguards against the ability of
unauthorised personnel to alter the data base.
Computer backup discs, tapes etc. should be stored in a different location from that containing the working
discs, tapes etc. in an environment that ensures their remain in a good condition.

2.18.1 General
It is the required of Part-145.A.60, that the Part-145 approved maintenance organisation must report to the
competent authority, the state of registry and to the organisation responsible for the design of the aircraft or
component and to the operator any defects/ conditions of the aircraft or aircraft component identified by the
organisation that has resulted or may result in an unsafe condition that hazards seriously the flight safety.
2.18.2. Principles
Approved maintenance organisation should have internal occurrence reporting system to enable the
collection and evaluation of such reports, including the assessment and extraction of those occurrences
and should identify adverse trends, corrective actions taken or to be taken to address deficiencies and
include evaluation of all known relevant information relating to such occurrences and a method to circulate
the information as necessary.
The aim of occurrence reporting is to identify the factors contributing to incidents and to make the system
resistant to similar errors.
A defect/condition that could seriously hazard the aircraft is normally limited to:
Serious cracks
Permanent deformation
Burning or serious corrosion of structure found during scheduled maintenance of the
aircraft or engine.
Failure of any emergency system during scheduled testing, among them failure of vital
system and emergency evacuation from the aircraft.
In case of occurrence (defeats/conditions which could seriously hazard the aircraft) reports must be made
as soon as practicable but in any case within 72 hours of identifying the condition to which the report
relates to competent authority, to manufacturer and operator. In case of an aircraft, where the state of
registration is different, then the NAA of the state of registry must also be informed. In all respect Georgian
CAA will be informed accordingly. The MO shall continue to pursue the manufacturer and Authority until a
positive feedback is obtained.
As a operator Georgian Airways also shall report to the authority of any incident that has endangered or
may have endangered safe operation of a flight.
EASA Form 44 Technical Occurrence Reporting form has to be used to report technical Occurrences for
Competent Authority (NAA, EASA, and CAA) and QA Manager and Technical Director are responsible for
it.

It is the required of Part-145.A.47 (a),(b) that the approved maintenance organisation must plan the
availability of all necessary personnel appropriate to the amount and complexity of work in order to
ensure the safe completion of the maintenance work. The planning must take into account human
performance limitations.
2.22.2 Principles.
Production planning and maintenance control centre determine the man-hours plan of the scheduled
maintenance based on intended volume of work which are received from operator(s), and man-hour data
required for its accomplishment.
The source of the man-hour data needed is the maintenance program in liaison with MO experience of
work performance. Man-hours calculation should be performed for entire shift loading containing necessary
man-hours for maintenance of each aircraft and take into account human performance limitations.
Production Planning & MCC Manager with Line Maintenance Manager and/or supervisor carries out Man
power planning for scheduled routine and additional works based on working hours of maintenance, staff
availability and qualification. The Manpower Planning is reviewed every 3 months but may be adjusted
when necessary. Any significant deviation more than a 25% shortfall in available man-hours during a
calendar month is reported to the QAM and the Accountable Manager for review.
Production Planning & MCC prepares the Maintenance Order (Form A9/ENG/033) for shifts take into
account capability to perform these works by the respective shift. Maintenance Order may be corrected as
necessary.
When maintenance order can not be completely accomplished due to whatever reasons during shift work
time, shift leader with production planning and maintenance control centre planner will transfer the
completion of maintenance actions to the next shift according MOE 2.26.

It is the required of Part-145.A.65 (b){3} in order to minimise the risk of multiple errors and capture errors
on critical systems should be established procedures to identify and control of critical tasks.
2.23.2 Principles
Maintenance organisation should ensure that no person is required to carry out and inspect in relation to a
maintenance task involving some element of disassembly/reassembly of several aircraft components of the
same time fitted to more than one system on the same aircraft during a particular maintenance check in
order to minimise rare possibility of an error being repeated whereby the identical aircraft components are
not reassembled thereby compromising more than one system.
When one person will carry out these same tasks then work card/ worksheet should include an additional
stage for re-inspection of the work by this person or the other person (Duplicate inspection or double
control) after completion off all same tasks. For critical tasks the double control is performed by cat B1/B2
certifying staff. In order to determine the work items to be considered, the following tasks should primarily
be reviewed for their criticality:

2.25.1 General
It is the required of Part-145.A.65 to detect and rectify maintenance errors that could , as minimum, result
in a failure, malfunction or defect endangering the safe operation of the aircraft if not performed properly.
The aim of this chapter is to identify the factors contributing to incidents and to make the system resistant
to similar errors.
2.25.2 Principles/Procedure
The maintenance error detection can be carried out by different means:
By the observation of the error by the maintenance personnel themselves; free reporting to the shift
leader who informs the QAM. The QAM analyses the information and initiates the corresponding
corrective action. He manages a feedback of the analyse to the personnel.
For reporting, evaluating and rectifying of Maintenance Errors may be used Maintenance Error Report
Form (A9/ENG/037). Maintenance personnel by themselves or shift leader (or other managers) receiving
information about maintenance errors can complete report form with details known of them and inform QA.
For reporting may be used voluntary information box. Quality Assurance with relevant department will
evaluate the maintenance error and initiate the corresponding corrective action.
The QAM retains all elements related to the Maintenance errors in a computerised file MAINTENANCE
ERRORS. He can eventually take some of these elements to improve the human factors continuation
training.
All personnel involved in maintenance activities and maintenance support duties are concerned by
reporting to QAM any safety related occurrence. And all these personnel should have human factors
training (MOE 3.13).
Primarily the following maintenance tasks are reviewed to assess their impact on safety:
In order to prevent omissions, every maintenance task or group of tasks are signed off only after their
completion. Work by unauthorised personnel should be checked by authorised personnel before they sign
off.
Critical tasks are signed off by two authorised personnel (Duplicate inspection required).

2.26.1 General
When it is required to handover continuation or completion of maintenance tasks for reasons of a shift or
personnel change over, relevant information should be adequately communicated between outgoing and
incoming personnel . (Part-145.A.47(C)).
2.26.2 Principles
The primary objective of the handover information is to ensure effective communication at the point of
handing over the continuation or completion of maintenance actions.
Effective task and shift handover depends on three basic elements:
The outgoing persons ability to understand and communicate the important elements of the job or
task being passed over to the incoming person.
The incoming persons ability to understand and assimilate the information being provided by the
outgoing person.
A formalised process for exchanging information (by speaking and writing) between outgoing and
incoming persons and a 30 minutes shift overlap is managed for such exchanges to take place.

Fuel System Airworthiness Limitation Items (AWLs) are mandatory maintenance actions required to ensure
that unsafe conditions identified by the SFAR 88 safety review do not occur or are not introduced into the
fuel tank system as a result of configuration changes, repairs, alterations, or deficiencies in the
maintenance program throughout the operational life of the airplane.
An AWL may be:
an Airworthiness Limitation Instruction (ALI) or a Critical Design Configuration Control Limitation (CDCCL).
2.29.1 Principles.
Critical Design Configuration Control Limitations (CDCCL)
Design features that are CDCCLs are defined and controlled by Special Federal AviationRegulation
(SFAR) 88, and can be found in Airworthiness Limitations (AWL) and Certification Maintenance
Requirements (CMR) document, D6-38278-CMR.
CDCCLs are a means of identifying certain design configuration features intended to preclude a fuel tank
ignition source for the operational life of the airplane. CDCCLs are mandatory and cannot be changed or
deleted without the approval of the FAA office that is responsible for the airplane model Type Certificate, or
applicable regulatory agency. A critical fuel tank ignition source prevention feature may exist in the fuel
system and its related installation or in systems that, if a failure condition were to develop, could interact
with the fuel system in such a way that an unsafe condition would develop without this limitation.
CDCCL identified areas of the AMM where substitution of practices, procedures, material and tooling are
not allowed without written permission from the manufacturer or engineering department who would most
likely get the deviation authority from manufacturer.
All occurrences of CDCCLs found in the AMM are identified by this note after each applicable CDCCL
design feature:
NOTE: CDCCL - Refer to the task: Airworthiness Limitation Precautions, TASK 28-00-00-912-069, for
important information on Critical Design Configuration Control Limitations (CDCCLs).
CDCCLs involve design aspects such as wire separation, explosion-proof features of a fuel pump,
maintenance intervals for transient suppression devices, fuel quantity indication system (FQIS) wiring,
minimum bonding jumper resistance levels, and so forth.
Any maintenance actions or subsequent changes to the design must not degrade the safety level of the
original design over the operational life of the airplane. STC wiring installed adjacent to original design
wiring may well be categorized as safety critical under the CDCCL aegis. All fuel pumps become critical
items, as are fuel pump wiring and fuel pump circuit protection devices.
Strict adherence to configuration, methods, techniques, and practices as prescribed is required to ensure
the CDCCL is complied with. Any use of parts, methods, techniques or practices not contained in the
applicable CDCCL must be approved by the FAA office that is responsible for the airplane model Type
Certificate, or applicable regulatory agency.
Any modification of maintenance Instructions linked to CDCCL is an aircraft modification to be approved
i.a.w. Part-21.

The overall responsibility for the control/removal of snow, ice, dust and sand contamination to unapproved
standard from Georgian Airways aircraft, prior to departure of the intended flight, in accordance with the
approved procedures remains with the Operator. This responsibility includes ensuring that the contracted
company is approved to carry out the de-icing/anti-icing of the aircraft in accordance with the regulations.
The control of snow, ice, dust and sand contamination before flight is the responsibility of the pilot. He/she
will take whatever steps they consider necessary to ensure the aircraft is free from such contamination
before flight.

Feb 2009
In general the control of snow and ice requirements on Georgian Airways aircraft during cold weather
conditions is carried out by Georgian Airways maintenance personnel with own procedures at TBS station
or at TBS and other station contracted approved maintenance/handling companies with their own company
procedures.
The approved ground personnel or flight crewmember is to monitor the de-icing/anti-icing operations by
contracted agents. They must ensure that compliance with procedures is being adhered to, that the
aeroplane is satisfactorily cleared of snow and ice according to the conditions prevailing, that a certificate is
issued from the de-icing company stating fluids used, the type of mix and the start and stop times of the
operation. Compliance with the correct holdover times is of particular importance.
A record in the aircraft Technical Log Book of the de-icing/anti-icing operation in accordance with the
certificate supplied must be made and certified by an approved person. The certificate must be retained for
record purposes.
If the aircraft is delayed in its departure for its intended flight the aeroplane may need to be de-iced/antiiced again. In all cases a contact monitor for the re-accumulation of snow or ice must be carried out.
Any discrepancy observed, damaged sustained or non-compliance with procedures must be reported to
QAM using the Mandatory Occurrence Reporting (MOR).
The accomplishment of all ground de-icing/anti-icing operations and their associated procedures will be
subject to Quality audit surveillance.
L2.2.3.3 Dust and Sand Contamination
This type of contamination would normally be expected in those climates where hot and dry conditions
prevail, although it can be encountered in almost most airports in certain climatic or operational conditions.
Contamination can be caused by strong winds, engine jet exhausts, landing on dusty airstrips etc.,
During any of these climatic or operational conditions the approved ground personnel and/or flight
crewmember is to monitor the condition of the aeroplane. They must ensure that contamination through
dust and sand is not prevalent. They should pay particular attention to those areas of the aircraft where
accumulations could build up e.g. flap and flying controls recesses, inlet ducts, engine intakes, compressor
fan blades, wheel bays, pitot/static vents etc.,
If any excess dust and/or sand contaminant is evident it should be removed before the next flight in
accordance with the Maintenance Manual.
An entry in the Technical Log of the conditions and the actions taken must be made for the attention of
Technical Records.

Principles
The product (aircraft) audit monitors that aircraft/service to be delivered to customers or provided for
service and the respective activities are in accordance with the given specifications and all activities are
executed with respect to the approved procedures.
The sample check of a product (aircraft) means to witness any relevant testing and visually inspect the
product (aircraft) and associated documentation. The sample check should not involve repeat disassembly
or testing unless the sample check identifies findings requiring such actions.
In case there is some finding, it is recommended that to be performed audit of maintenance procedures
and requirements associated with the relevant finding, to ensure that the end result should be an airworthy
aircraft.
The aircraft audits will be carried out by competent personnel from department/section not responsible for
line maintenance of aircraft under the control of the Quality Assurance Manager.
The quality audit of aircraft must be included in the annual (12 months) audit plan, but unscheduled audits
may be carried out. These unscheduled audits may be initiated by the QAM, The Accountable Manager or
other management personnel.

2.3.1
In case, when it is not possible to identify exact cause of defect or malfunction due to non confirmative on
the ground it is allowed to perform Cross/Inter change of components for troubleshooting.
Cross change of components is change of components between different positions of an aircraft.
Conditions for both removed parts have to be considered as serviceable.
Authorised MO personnel must complete TLB page and also Cross/Inter Change Info (Form No
A9/ENG/016) with details.
If subsequent flights prove defect one of these parts, it will be replaced according procedure described
above in chapter 2.2.
Interchange of components is change of components between different aircrafts. There are two
possibilities:
Interchange must be documented, complete by the Cross/Inter Change Info and by the appropriate entries
the TLB.
Report entry in the TLB page of the aircraft, from where was removed serviceable part will be open, and
aircraft will be considered as not ready for Release to Service, until serviceable part will be installed in
accordance with AMM and Certificate of Release to Service is issued by authorised MO personnel.
Also MO personnel must follow safety instructions during maintenance activities,that described in the Ramp
Service Manual (RSM-09).
2.3.2
Standby parts
When exact fault of component does not occur, it is allowed to replace the component for troubleshooting.
In this case authorised MO personnel have to issue Standby Note Recertification Label (Form
A9/INV/013) with details of removed component. MO personnel should ensure, that the component is
drained of all fluids if appropriate and that all open orifices, sockets etc. are blanked off. The Mo personnel
must ensure that no damage has occurred to the component during removal by means of a general visual
inspection.
Standby parts is considered as serviceable, indicating the reason for removal (Tech Log entry or
maintenance finding and For trouble shooting removed). The component is than send to the store.
If subsequent flights confirm that the failure was not related to the subject Standby-Part and no other
information indicates an unserviceable condition Standby-Part will be returned to serviceable condition by

INTRODUCTION
1.1
Requirement
It is important for all maintenance personnel to be fully conversant with the fuelling procedures and all the
safety practices and regulations whilst the aircraft fuelling is taking place. The primary safety concern when
fuelling operations are being carried out is that of fire and ultimately explosion.
All fuelling operations must be carried out in accordance with the appropriate Aircraft Maintenance Manual
(AMM).
1.2
Purpose
To identify procedures to be followed to ensure that aircraft fuel quality and fuelling standards are
maintained.
1.3
Responsibility
Fuelling activities on the companies aircrafts are performed by one of the following:
2.
PROCEDURE
2.1
General
To ensure an accurate means of monitoring and cross checking of fuel loads, the aircraft will be refuelled in
accordance with this procedure. There must be a strict NO SMOKING policy observed at all times.
Normally fuelling operations must be carried out in the open air with tank vents and fuelling equipment not
less than 15 metres (50 feet) from inhabited buildings, other than those parts constructed for the purpose of
direct loading or unloading of aircraft, such as air bridges, and only in areas approved by the relevant
airport authority.
The Fuelling Zone should be regarded as extending not less than 6 metres (20 feet) radially from the filling
and venting points on the aircraft and the fuelling equipment and, when applicable, from the hydrant valve
in use for the fuelling. When defuelling is taking place, the vehicle will be venting and will generate a
fuelling zone radiating from the tank vent.
A calculation of the amount of fuel to be uplifted must be made prior to fuelling, and any variation between
the calculated uplift and actual uplift must be within the prescribed limits as
laid down in the AMM.
Water Drain Checks on each aircraft fuel tank are to be carried out in accordance with the requirements as
laid down in the AMM.
Upon completion of the fuelling operation, it must be established that the correct amounts of fuel are on
board the aircraft prior to departure.
2.2
2.2.1
It must be established that the correct type and grade of fuel is on board the fuelling vehicle to be used.

All personnel involved in the fuelling of aircraft should be familiar with the procedure for the call of Airport
Fire Service.
2.2.3
Fire Extinguishers
Suitable Fire Extinguishers should be provided at readily accessible positions. The owners of such Fire
Extinguishers should ensure by regular inspection and maintenance that this equipment is kept fully
serviceable.
2.2.4
When an aircraft is displaying a fire warning or engine overheat warning on the flight deck, the
flight/maintenance personnel must warn the fuelling operative that fuelling should not begin until the cause
of the warning has been determined.
If any part of the Aircraft Landing Gear appears abnormally hot and the airport fire service has been called,
fuelling operations should not commence until a member of the airport fire service has confirmed that it is
safe to do so. Fuelling equipment must not be positioned at an aircraft, until the fuelling operative has been
advised that no risk remains.
2.2.5
Supervision of Fuelling
All fuelling operations should be supervised by an approved person (Georgian Airways Certifying Staff or
crew or Fuelling Supervisor).
It is the responsibility of this person to ensure the correct positioning of service equipment and fuelling
vehicles.
2.2.6
The Fuelling Supervisor or Georgian Airways Certifying Staff or crew should ensure that a clear path is
maintained from the aircraft to allow for the quick removal of fuelling vehicles and equipment, without
requiring the reversing of the fuelling vehicles.
All vehicles and equipment should be positioned to allow the unobstructed exit of persons from the aircraft
in an emergency.
2.2.7
Aircraft should not be fuelled within 30 metres (98 feet) of radar or HF equipment under test in aircraft or
ground installations.
2.2.8
During fuelling, the prevention of fire risks due to static electricity discharge is dependant upon effective
bonding between the aircraft and the fuel supply source. All bonding connections between ground
equipment and the aircraft should be made before filler caps are removed and not broken until the filler
caps have been replaced.
2.2.9
Contamination of the skin by kerosene can cause serious burns, especially if the soiled clothing is worn
after the contamination. Therefore immediate first aid should be sought and contaminated clothing removed
as soon as possible.
2.2.10 Water Drain Checks
A check should be made on the fuelling vehicle prior to fuelling the aircraft to ensure that the contents are
contaminating free.

All fuelling operations must be carried out in accordance with the appropriate Aircraft Maintenance Manual.
The following precautions during fuelling operations must be observed:
Vehicles performing aircraft servicing functions must never be driven under aircraft wings.
All ground equipment such as platforms, steps ect must not be positioned so that the aircraft
settling under the fuel load will not impinge on the equipment.
Aircraft Oxygen systems should not be replenished.
Aircraft External strobe lighting should not be operated.
The practice of connecting and disconnecting electrical power sources should be avoided.
The APU should not be started if it can be established that the jet efflux will discharge into the
fuelling zone.
Additional Precautions to be taken when Passengers remain on board during Fuelling Operations:
2.4
Air traffic control and the aerodrome fire services are to be advised that refuelling or defuelling will
be taking place with passengers on board. A pilot or an engineer is always to be in attendance at
the aircraft and aerodrome fire services to be provided;
Crew, staff and passengers are to be advised that refuelling or defuelling is about to take place;
'Fasten Seat Belt' signs must be off; 'No Smoking' signs must be on together with interior lighting to
enable emergency exits to be identified;
Passengers are to be briefed not to smoke at any time on the ground and to remain seated, but
with seat belts unfastened, until the refuelling has been completed;
Passenger loading stand to be provided at two main exit doors;
A crew member is to be stationed at two main exit doors to assist in the evacuation if an
emergency should occur. These doors must be manned throughout the fuelling operation.
Whenever an exit with an inflatable escape slide is designated to meet the above requirements, the
ground area beneath the exit and the slide deployment area should be kept clear of all external
obstructions and the fuelling overseer informed accordingly;
If the presence of fuel vapour is detected inside the aeroplane, or any other hazard arises refuelling
or defuelling must be stopped immediately;
No items of electrical equipment belonging to individuals, including mobile telephones, may be
switched on or off whilst refuelling or defuelling is in progress;
The position of the fuel bowser or installation relative to the aeroplane is to be such that it will not
impede the rapid exit of passengers if an emergency evacuation becomes necessary;
However not withstanding the foregoing an operator shall ensure that no aeroplane is refuelled or
defuelled with widecut fuel (e.g. Jet B or equivalent) or when a mixture of these types of fuel might
occur, when passengers are embarking, on board or disembarking;
At least one pilot, in contact with ATC, should remain on the flight deck. If fuelling is complete
boarding may commence without the presence of a pilot provided that a properly briefed engineer
is present. Away from base this would normally require one pilot to remain on the flight deck.
Fuel Spills during Fuelling
In the event of a fuel spillage action should be immediately taken to stop the fuel flow and the aircraft
commander/crew informed. The following action may be appropriate although each
spillage will need
to be treated as an individual case because of such variables as the size
and location of the spillage,
and prevailing weather conditions.
In the case of fuel spillages occurring which measure greater than two metres (6.5 feet) the
supervisor should:

INTRODUCTION
1.1
Requirement
Winter month weather conditions require additional procedures to maintain serviceability and safe flight
characteristics. Winter brings snow and ice conditions which, unless adequately addressed, may impair the
operational characteristics of the aircraft.
When freezing conditions are forecasted, consideration should be given to draining all the potable water
and toilet fluid contents from the aircraft.
During high wind velocity conditions, which may occur any time of the year, precautions must be taken to
reduce the possibility of damage to aircraft and equipment. During heavy and/or persistent rain,
precautions must be taken to ensure that excess amounts of water do not enter the aircraft and cause
damage to equipment.
Whenever the aircraft are parked for prolonged periods at airports that are susceptible to sand or dust
contamination, precautions must be taken to prevent contamination to aircraft systems wherever possible.
1.2
Policy
It is Georgian Airways policy to ensure that the staff takes every necessary precaution to deal with winter
and inclement weather conditions in accordance with these procedures.
1.3
Responsibility
The Flight Crew and/or authorised personnel are responsible to ensure that the aircraft is correctly de-iced
prior to accepting the aircraft for service. The staff is responsible for monitoring the de-icing/anti-icing
operation, and ensuring that the correct fluid is applied. Certification as such is made in the Aircraft
Technical Log Book page, together with details of the start and end time of the operation, and the mix, and
type of fluid used. The de-icing/anti-icing operation is contracted out to appropriately approved
organisations.
All personnel engaged in de-icing/anti-icing must ensure that they are acquainted with any prevailing local
airport regulations. Particular care must be taken to establish the areas of the airport where de-icing may
take place in order that local drainage and pollution controls are observed.
During periods of high wind and rain it is the responsibility of the certifying staff to ensure that the aircraft is
correctly parked and chocked, and that all ground equipment is clear of the aircraft. During freezing
conditions below a certain temperature the aircraft potable water and toilet fluid should be drained.
If the aircraft is parked for prolonged periods at an airport where the aircraft is susceptible to sand and dust
contamination, vital areas must be blanked off.
When an aircraft is parked down route where no maintenance support facilities are available the flight crew
shall comply with the above.
2.
PROCEDURE
2.1
Freezing Conditions
Whenever De-icing and/or Anti-icing operations are considered necessary the Aircraft Maintenance Manual
should be consulted (Aircraft Maintenance Manual (AMM) 12-33-01 and 12-33-02 refer).

A procedure by which frost, ice, slush, and snow is removed from an aircraft in order to provide
uncontaminated surfaces.
2.1.2.2 Anti-icing
A precautionary procedure that provides protection against the formation of frost or ice and accumulations
of snow on treated surfaces of the aircraft for a limited period of time.
2.1.2.3 De/Anti-icing
De/anti-icing is a combination of the two operations described above and can be performed in either one or
two steps. With one-step de/anti-icing the fluid used to de-ice the aircraft remains on the aircraft surfaces to
provide a limited anti-icing capability. Two- step de/anti-icing consists of two distinct steps. The first step,
de-icing, is followed by the second step, anti-icing, as a separate fluid application.
2.1.2.4 Holdover Time
The holdover time is the estimated time that the de-icing/anti-icing fluid will prevent frost, ice and snow from
forming or accumulating on the protected surfaces of the aircraft under certain weather conditions.
2.1.2.5 Freezing Conditions
Defined as an Outside Ambient Temperature (OAT) below 3 degrees Celsius and visible moisture in any
form (such as fog, rain, snow, sleet or ice crystals) or when standing water slush, ice or snow is present on
the runway.
2.1.2.6 Frost (Including Hoar Frost)
A crystallised deposit, formed from water vapour on surfaces which are at or below 0 degrees Celsius.
2.1.2.6 Steady Snow
Continuous precipitation in the form of ice crystals or flakes, which may accumulate on aircraft surfaces.
2.1.2.7 Freezing Fog
Defined as a cloud of super cooled water droplets that freeze upon impact to form a deposit of ice on
objects in cold weather conditions. The visibility at ground level is generally reduced to less than 1km
during this condition.
2.1.2.8 Freezing Rain
Precipitation of liquid water particles, which freeze upon impact with, exposed surfaces and objects.
Precipitation consists of drops of water greater than 0.5mm diameter.
2.1.2.9 Rain on a Cold Soaked Wing
Water droplets from rainfall forming sheeting on the wing upper surface when the temperature of the
aircraft wing is at or below 0 degrees Celsius. This phenomenon can occur at ambient temperatures up to
+15 degrees Celsius and is critical.
2.1.3
Process
Personal should ensure that anti-icing/de-icing operations appropriate to the conditions are carried out prior
to departure and that inspections indicate that all significant deposits of hoar frost, ice and snow have been
removed satisfactorily from flight controls, wings and stabilisers.

If conditions are severe and the aircraft is to remain on the ground for a length of time that would allow a
build up of ice and snow, consideration should be given to anti-icing the aircraft as soon as possible after
landing.
Prior to departure the fuselage and vertical stabiliser surfaces should be free from ice and snow. Thin hoar
frost on the upper fuselage is permissible in accordance with the AMM 12-33-01. Reference should always
be made to the AMM.
De-icing fluid must not be sprayed into engine or APU inlets, exhausts, engine thrust reversers, probe
inlets, static ports, scoops, vents, drains, etc, but all must be clear of ice and snow. Should it be necessary
for the engines or APU to be running, the air conditioning packs and bleed valves must be closed.
Hot fluid must not be sprayed directly onto cold windscreens/windows.
When performing de/anti-icing, ice and snow must not be forced into openings around flight control
surfaces.
After the removal of ice and snow operate all flight controls through their full range of movement. Have a
person on the ground verify that all surfaces do move full travel. If you think that seals are frozen or there
are blockages, then move the control surfaces manually before you apply power.
Note: It is essential that flight deck personnel are notified prior to moving any control surface
manually.
Make sure that there is no ice, snow or slush collected in the landing gear or wheel well areas.
Make sure that all drains are clear and not blocked.
Make sure that the Angle of Attack sensors are clear of ice and ice and or snow and that sensors move
freely.
Large deposits of dry snow on wing surfaces etc, maybe removed with brooms.
The Fuselage maybe cleared using ropes or fabric laid over the fuselage and see-sawed over the top
surface, care must be taken not to damage equipment and surface finishes.
Care must be taken not to damage equipment and antennas, when using manual methods of clearance. A
check should be made of all aerials/antennas for damage after the fuselage has been cleared.
De-icing details are to be entered into the Technical Log Book Page in the allotted space.
Holdover protection is achieved by a layer of anti-icing fluid remaining on and protecting the aeroplane
surfaces for a period of time.
With a one-step de-icing / anti-icing procedure, the holdover time begins at the commencement of de-icing /
anti-icing. With a two-step procedure, the hold over time begins at the commencement of the second (antiicing) step.
Should frozen deposits form or accumulate on an aeroplane surface, the holdover time will have
run out.
2.1.4
De/Anti-icing
NOTE: DE-/ANTI -ICING APPLICATION HAS TO BE CO-ORDINATE WITH PIC AND GROUND OPS
AND CARRIED OUT AS NEAR TO DEPARTURE TIME AS POSSIBLE TO ACQUIRE MAXIMUM
HOLDOVER TIME.
ATTENTION: THE HORIZONTAL STABILIZER MUST BE POSITIONED IN NOSE DOWN
(STABILIZER LEADING EDGE FULL UP) BEFORE DE-/ANTIICING!

Rear spar area of the wing (above and in front of the flaps)
After inspection, areas free of ice and snow retract flaps/slats, sign off inspection and functional test in TLB.
2.1.4.2 Necessity for de-/anti-icing
All surfaces including fuselage, wings, flaps, leading edge devices, ailerons, horizontal and vertical
stabilizers, elevators and rudders must be free from frost, ice or snow.
This is referred to as the clean airplane concept.
NOTE: A layer of frost 1/8-inch thick or less on the lower wing surfaces (in the spar area) is
permitted if it is caused by very cold fuel.
Thin hoar frost is permitted on the top surface of the fuselage if all constant thickness with a sharp
crystalline texture. Hoar frost it thin, when markings, paint lines or letters are still visible. Carefully examine
the top of the wings to determine clear ice. It is possible that the clear ice can only be found by touching
with hand.
Clear ice must be removed before take-off.
2.1.4.3 Anti-icing for extended transits or parking the aircraft
When any precipitation or frost is expected, protect clean surface of aircraft with ISO type II or type IV fluids
(see OM, Part A, Chapter 08.02.04).
CAUTION: THE REPEATED APPLICATION OF TYPE II OR TYPE IV, WITHOUT THE SUBSEQUENT
APPLICATION OF TYPE I OR HOT WATER, MAY CAUSE A RESIDUE REHYDRATE AND FREEZE
UNDER CERTAIN TEMPERATURE, HIGH HUMIDITY AND/OR RAIN CONDITIONS. THIS RESIDUE
MAY BLOCK OR IMPEDE CRITICAL FLIGHT CONTROL SYSTEMS. THIS RESIDUE MAY REQUIRE
REMOVAL.
2.1.4.4 Post de-/anti icing check (only on crew request)
After completion of de/anti-icing check the following:
All surfaces including fuselage, wings, flaps, leading edge devices, ailerons, horizontal and vertical
stabilizers, elevators and rudders must be free from frost, ice or snow.
Carefully examine the tip of the wings to determine clear ice by touching with hand

The Boeing 737 is made to be resistant to high velocity ground winds from all angles without mooring.
However, if high velocity winds are expected, certain parking tasks should always be performed. The AMM
Chapter 101300 and 102100 describes in detail what actions are required. The basic actions required
would be to apply the park brake, double chock the aircraft nose wheel and main wheels, set the horizontal
stabiliser to zero pilot units, and ensure the flaps are up. Engine intake and exhaust blanks should be
installed as required.
Consideration should also be given to the amount of fuel that is on board the aircraft. If high velocity winds
are forecast in excess of 30 knots refuel the aircraft to full wings fuel, ensuring that less fuel is not required
for the next flight.

If heavy/persistent rain is forecasted then all necessary precautions must be taken to prevent water from
entering the aircraft. All doors and hatches must be kept closed as is practical. Particular care must be
taken if the aircraft is parked for extended periods.
2.2
This type of contamination would normally be expected in those climates where hot and dry conditions
prevail, although it can be encountered in almost most airports in certain climatic or operational conditions.
Contamination can be caused by strong winds, engine jet exhausts, landing on dusty airstrips etc.,
During any of these climatic or operational conditions the approved ground personnel and/or flight
crewmember is to monitor the condition of the aeroplane. They must ensure that contamination through
dust and sand is not prevalent. They should pay particular attention to those areas of the aircraft where
accumulations could build up e.g. flap and flying controls recesses, inlet ducts, engine intakes, compressor
fan blades, wheel bays, pitot/static vents etc.,
If any excess dust and/or sand contaminant is evident it should be removed before the next flight in
accordance with the Maintenance Manual.
If the aircraft is to be parked at an airport for any length of time where dust and sand contamination is a
possibility, then the following actions must be taken:
A check should be carried out prior to flight to ensure that all blanks and covers have been removed and
that all exposed recesses are not contaminated.

During the course of maintaining aircraft, it will be necessary to ground run engines for maintenance
purposes. Ground running of aircraft engines may only be carried out by suitably trained and approved
members of staff and must always be carried out in accordance with the by-laws in force at the airport
where the maintenance is being carried out. Away from base, it is highly recommended that contact be
made with air traffic control by telephone, prior to contacting them over the R/T to clarify local procedures
and to explain what is intended. Any engine ground run must be carried out by a minimum of 2 competent
personnel.
It is not the intention of this procedure to describe how to run specific aircraft type engines. The Aircraft
Maintenance Manual for the specific type should always be consulted for such information prior to
performing any aircraft engine ground run.
1.2
Responsibility
The appropriately authorised certifying staff is responsible for performing engine ground runs as
circumstances dictate.
2.
2.1
PROCEDURE
General
Only appropriately authorised personnel may carry out aircraft engine ground runs. Personnel requiring
approval to ground run aircraft engines will be required to submit a Special Task Rating Authorisation
(Form No A9/QAD/015) due endorsed by an approved examiner.
When an engine ground run is required, authorisation from the local airport authority to carry out the engine
run must be obtained in accordance with the local airport procedures.
There will be strict compliance with all local airport requirements regarding aircraft engine ground running,
i.e. location of the aircraft for the ground run, night curfews, special procedures, etc.
Immediately prior to carrying out any engine ground run, start clearance must be obtained from both Air
Traffic Control (ATC, via the aircraft radios), and the headset man (via the aircraft intercom). A listening
watch of ATC is to be maintained during the engine run. Aircraft Anti-collision lights shall be displayed
whenever engines are about to be started and at all times whilst running. ATC shall be informed when the
engine run is complete.
In the event of an emergency, ATC is your fastest means of contacting the Airports Emergency Services.
Aircraft wheels must be chocked as required, and the aircraft positioned into wind as circumstances dictate.
The ground area below the engine intakes should be checked for loose material, and the aircraft
repositioned as required. If the engine ground run requires high power settings, consideration should also
be given to the condition of the ground area behind the aircraft engine exhaust, as loose material may be
thrown up causing damage to the aircraft structure, and possibly to other aircraft and/or facilities.
Prior to carrying out any engine ground runs, always refer to the Aircraft Maintenance Manual (AMM) in
order to obtain details regarding danger areas, precautions and operating limitations.
The suitably authorised personnel carrying out the ground run will occupy the left hand flight deck seat, be
in sole charge of the aircraft and be totally responsible for the safety of both the aircraft and the supporting
ground crew. Only the personnel in charge shall initiate the ground runs.

During an engine run, ground crew will be kept to the minimum number of personnel needed to safely
complete the engine run requirements. It will consist of a headset man at the front of the aircraft, to
maintain contact between the flight deck and the ground crew at all times. The headset man shall be
responsible for maintaining a careful watch for any passing traffic behind the aircraft at all times. If it is felt
necessary a member of the ground crew should be positioned accordingly to assist.
A separate person should be assigned to carry out any adjustments or leak checks as necessary, which is
fully conversant with the correct way to approach an engine which is running, the adjustment points on the
engine and the tooling needed to carry out any adjustments.
No member of the ground crew is to approach a running engine until clear permission from the personnel in
charge of the ground run has been received via the headset man. All ground crew members are to be well
clear of all danger zones as defined in the AMM and in clear visual range of the personnel in charge
whenever the engine is to be operated above idle power.
Engine ground runs are to be kept to a minimum required to satisfy the requirements of the AMM. All fuel
used in the course of carrying out engine ground runs is to be recorded in the Aircraft Technical Log Book
page (see also LMP-03).
2.2
Engine Starts and Ground Runs carried out on Passenger Aprons MUST always be carried out in liaison
with the Ground Handling Agent or Personnel who is familiar with the local procedures involved for engine
starting at that particular airport. If flight deck personnel and cabin attendants are to be on board the aircraft
during the engine run, they must be advised of the situation.
If it is necessary to carry out an engine run with passengers on board the aircraft, the Flight Deck personnel
and Cabin Attendants must be advised, and they should advise the passengers accordingly of the situation
and that all seat belts should be kept unfastened.
It is essential that the ground-handling agent be consulted prior to any engine ground run on stand. They
must ensure that all supporting agencies are informed of the requirement and that all personnel are kept
well away from the aircraft during the engine run. Aircraft must not be refuelled during engine ground runs.
As most passenger apron areas prohibit ground running above idle power, many occasions will necessitate
repositioning the aircraft to a remote area. Engines shall not be run at higher than idling power unless
permission has been sought from ATC. Whilst ground runs are being carried out, a listening watch of ATC
must be carried out in case of further instructions from ATC are issued.

During the course of maintaining aircraft, it may be necessary to carry out aircraft pressure runs on the
ground.
It is not the intention of this procedure to describe how to carry out specific aircraft type pressurisation
checks. The Aircraft Maintenance Manual for the specific type should always be consulted for such
information prior to performing any aircraft pressurisation run.
1.2
Purpose
Responsibility
The appropriately authorised certifying staff is responsible for performing aircraft pressure runs as
circumstances dictate.
3.
PROCEDURE
2.1
General
All Aircraft pressurisation Runs and tests will be performed strictly in accordance with the Aircraft
Maintenance Manual (AMM), observing all procedures and precautions therein contained. Aircraft Engines
or APU may be used to supply air for these runs and tests.
Only personnel holding engine ground run/management approval will be authorised to conduct aircraft
pressurisation runs. The number of persons required to take part in these tests shall be kept to a minimum
required for safety and to perform the required tests satisfactorily.
A minimum of one observer in addition to the MO personnel in charge will be present on the aircraft during
runs. The aircraft will be cleared of all other personnel not required.
A minimum of two ground observers will be present, one of which, the headset man shall maintain
constant contact with the maintenance personnel in charge on the flight deck. They shall be responsible for
ensuring that the area around the aircraft is kept clear at all times, prior to and during the pressure run.
Cabin pressure must always be increased/decreased slowly, and all ground observers kept constantly
informed of such actions in order to ensure that no hatches/doors are opened inadvertently during the
pressurisation runs/tests. Leak checks of doors and hatches should be performed with caution, especially if
any engine is running, and the maintenance personnel in charge must always be informed prior to
conducting such checks.
2.2
MO personnel performing Aircraft Pressurisation Runs or acting as observers must be medically fit to do
so. MO personnel with head colds, ear infections etc, should not conduct aircraft
pressure runs. If
any doubt exists, medical advice must be sought.
2.3
Aircraft Pressurisation Runs using the Aircraft Engines for air supply
Immediately prior to carrying out any engine ground run, start clearance must be obtained from both Air
Traffic Control (ATC, via the aircraft radios), and the headset man (via the aircraft intercom). A listening
watch of ATC is to be maintained during the engine run. Aircraft Anti-collision lights shall be displayed

whenever engines are about to be started and at all times whilst running. ATC shall be informed when the
engine run is complete.
In the event of an emergency, ATC is your fastest means of contacting the Airports Emergency Services.
Aircraft wheels must be chocked as required, and the aircraft positioned into wind as circumstances dictate.
The ground area below the engine intakes should be checked for loose material, and the aircraft
repositioned as required. If the engine ground run requires high power settings, consideration should also
be given to the condition of the ground area behind the aircraft engine exhaust, as loose material may be
thrown up causing damage to the aircraft structure, and possibly to other aircraft and/or facilities.
2.4
Aircraft Pressurisation Runs using the Aircraft Auxiliary Power Unit (APU) for air supply
The Aircraft Auxiliary Power Unit may be used for supplying air to the cabin in order to conduct the
pressurisation checks. Reference should be made to the appropriate AMM for precautions, and limitations
when running the APU.

Whenever aircraft are to be moved by means of a Tug, certain procedures must be adhered in order to
ensure a safe and efficient operation. When aircraft are parked they are to be parked in accordance with
this procedure. Definitions used are as follows:
1.2
Push-backs are defined as an aircraft move by a Tug with Flight Crew in command.
Towing aircraft is defined as an aircraft move by a Tug with a Brakeman on board.
Parking is defined as an aircraft at rest and unattended.
Policy
It is Georgian Airways policy to ensure that aircraft are parked and moved in accordance with this
procedure and local airport procedures. Details of Push-back and Towing practices can be found in the
Aircraft Maintenance Manual (AMM) Chapter 09-10-00. Details of aircraft parking can be found in the
Aircraft Maintenance Manual (AMM) Chapter 10-11-00.
1.3
Responsibility
Georgian Airways maintenance staffs perform all moving of aircraft at TBS airport.

PROCEDURE
2.1
Push-Back.
Push-Back and towing aircraft are dictated by the Commercial Programme coupled with the airport
facilities.
These services are performed by approved Georgian Airways personal or sub-contracted to Agency's
trained and approved personal.
Push-Back require a team comprising of a Tug- Driver, a person communicating with the Flight Deck and
Look outs as required. The team will have clear instructions and responsibilities and comprise of trained
staff authorised to carry out the duties.
The equipment used during the push-back will be serviced by the approved methods.
During a push-back, the team will receive instructions from the Flight Deck via a ground headset. The
Headset Man will ensure the Steering By-Pass is operated as necessary, and that doors and hatches are
closed.
The Flight Deck will determine the time to commence pushback through Ground Movement Control. This
information is relayed to the team with a 'BRAKES OFF' and 'CLEAR TO PUSH' command by the Flight
Deck.
The Headset Man will ensure that jetties, loading equipment, steps, etc., are clear of the aircraft, the
chocks are removed and the push-back is commenced, ensuring there is no conflict with taxiing aircraft or
passing vehicles.
When the push-back is completed, the team member controlling the push-back will request the Flight Deck
to 'SET BRAKES'. On confirmation of 'BRAKES SET' from the Flight Deck,
The tow bar is disconnected by removing the bar from the tug-end first, then disconnecting
towhead from the aircraft leg.

After the tug and tow bar are clear of the aircraft, steering by-pass will removed as appropriate.
The team member controlling the push-back moves clear of the aircraft and displays to the Flight Deck
that steering by-pass has been removed and that the aircraft is now clear to proceed by using standard
signals.
2.2
Towing
Towing of aircraft is under the control of the Georgian Airways maintenance staff or contracted Line
Maintenance organisation. The Shift Leader has the responsibility of supervising the aircraft tow operation
and must ensure the correct towing methods, equipment and procedures are used, as detailed in the
Operations and/or Maintenance Manual. Before moving the aircraft, the MO personnel must ensure the
aircraft is in a satisfactory condition to be moved with the Brake System operational and Accumulators
charged.
The MO personnel must ensure the team dispatched to carry out the tow operation are all suitably qualified
and approved to carry out the task and comprise of:
A Tug Driver
Aircraft Brakeman
Headset Man
Sufficient Look out persons to cover wing tips and tail, as required.
The Shift Leader must ensure the team is fully briefed on the tow operation and that each individual
understands his responsibility .The Aircraft Brakeman will determine the time to commence the tow through
Ground Movement Control. This information is relayed to the Headset Man, who will inform Tug Driver and
Brakeman will be requested that the Brakes be released and upon completion of the towing operation
requesting the brakes to be set.
Note: Constant communication between the brakeman and Headset Man should be maintained throughout
the towing operation. The aircraft Landing Gear Locks engagement and the Navigation Lights illumination
is to be actioned as necessary. It will be necessary to run the APU in order to provide electrical power. Only
authorised personnel shall be permitted to run the APU.
The Headset Man will ensure the Steering By-Pass is operated as necessary.
If the tow is in close proximity of aircraft, buildings or obstructions, the team must be guided by a Headset
Man, who places himself into a position, where he can see and be seen by the Tug Driver and the LookOuts.
Extreme care is to be exercised when manoeuvring aircraft into and out of hangars or between other
aircraft or obstructions. During this period the aircraft is to move at a slow pace and both Brakeman and
Tug Driver are to be prepared to react immediately to an Emergency Stop order.
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES IS ANY PERSON TO BOARD OR ALIGHT FROM A MOVING TUG OR
AIRCRAFT.
ALL AIRPORTS LAW REGULATIONS REGARDING THE MOVEMENT OF AIRCRAFT ARE TO BE
STRICTLY ADHERED TO.
If the aircraft is subject to a Bomb threat and the Airport Authority/Police require the aircraft to be moved
volunteers for a Tow Team are requested. If no volunteer Brakeman is forthcoming, the aircraft may be
towed without a Brakeman provided brakes are OFF and the aircraft is towed at a very slow walking pace
with volunteers available to walk beside each main undercarriage, each with a chock ready to position
simultaneously in front of the wheels in the event the tug becomes detached from the aircraft. Use of an
alternative method is permitted provided the Shift Leader is satisfied that the aircraft can be secured in the
event of accidental Tug disengagement from the aircraft.

ensuring that parts received and recorded as serviceable parts comply with airworthiness
regulations therefore ensuring that all documents accompanied parts are appropriate, correctly
filled and effective (according to Part 145). In the case of rotable parts, for indicating complete
conforming the serviceable tag has to be stamped and signined
in case if Non Conformance is discovered, complete Store Inspection Non Conformance Report
(Form No A9/INV/003), complete Non Conformance Label (Form No A9/INV/004)
in case of suspected unapproved parts the Logistic Manager is informed and he will complete the
GSAC form AC131 and EASA form 44.
Parts and certification are to be inspected in accordance with current requirements and as a minimum shall
cover the points in Appendix 2.
When this is done two copies of the GR label will be printed; one to be attached to the part and one to the
GR File. A Serviceable Tag (Form No A9/INV/005) can be printed from the IMS and attached to the
component or its packaging with all relevant information. This should be done prior to removal from the
booking in area (quarantine).
All documentation received with a part, including certification and GR label, is to be filed in folders and
stored in logistics department (or in archive).
The copy of EASA/JAA/FAA Forms may be transferred to Maintenance Department if requested.
New and/or used parts or components which have been overhauled, repaired, modified or inspected
received from an organisation approved by EASA (JAA member country) should be accompanied by the
EASA Form 1 (JAA Form 1) identifying the airworthiness and eligibility status of the component supplied.
Parts issued from a batch may not be accompanied by an original EASA (JAA) Form 1. In most cases, a
copy will be supplied, as the items supplied will form only part of the batch.
NOTE: AMC 145.A.42 (a) Acceptance of components
An equivalent document to an EASA Form 1 may be:
A released document issued by an organization under the terms of a bilateral agreement signed by
the European Community;
A released document issued by an organization approved under the terms of a JAA maintenance
bilateral agreement until superseded by the corresponding agreement signed by the European
Community;
A JAA Form One issued prior to 28 September 2004 by a JAR 145 organization approved by a JAA
Full Member State;
In the case of new aircraft components that were released from manufacturer prior to the Part -21
compliance date the component should be accompanied by a JAA Form One issued by a JAR-21
organization approved by a JAA Full Member Authority and within the JAA mutual recognition
system;
A JAA Form One issued prior to 28 September 2005 by a production organization approved by a
competent authority in accordance with its national regulations.
New and/or used parts or components which have been overhauled, repaired, modified or inspected
received from an organisation approved by the FAA and/or Transport Canada should be accompanied by
FAA Form 8130-3 and/or TCA Form 24-0078, identifying the airworthiness and eligibility status of the
components.
In any case these organisations should be approved by EASA. Only FAR 145 Repair Stations detailed in
List 2 of the JAA Administrative and Guidance Material, JAR 145 (Part 145) Listed Organisations may

be used. Only AM573 Maintenance Organisations listed List 3 of the JAA Administrative and Guidance
Material, JAR 145 (Part 145) Listed Organisations may be used.
Organisations responsibilities to ensure that the parts supplied are in a satisfactory condition, that the
component is to the required design modification standard and that any life limited parts are replaced prior
to use. Any work carried out on such a component must be certified by an organisation approved for the
task. Distributors located in other EU (JAA) member states are also required to make available the
Authorised release documentation on request. New and/or used parts issued from a larger batch will be
supplied with a copy of the original certification.
As a result of FAA Regulations, it is impossible to avoid obtaining parts, which are PMA identified, and in
these cases the following must be applied. PMA identified parts which are obtained from Boeing must
have EASA (JAA) Form 1 accompanying them. This Form 1 is issued by the supplier under their privileges
as the Aircraft Type Certificate holder and will be issued as the part number assigned by the OEM.
PMA identified parts from any other source must be backed up by either an FAA 8103-3 release certificate
or EASA (JAA) Form 1 if the part has been recertified by a JAA manufacturer. The parts must be identified
on all the paperwork with the part number assigned by the OEM.
Standard parts are required to be purchased from a supplier whose quality control system has been
evaluated and is part of the approved supplier list. This should ensure that the standard parts obtained are
acceptable and conform to the approved national or international standard denoted by the part numbers, a
Certificate of Conformity is required in all cases.
Consumable materials are not normally supplied with Authorised release documents, however it is a
requirement that only those materials specified in the aircraft or component approval technical publications
are used, therefore they must conform with the stated specification. A Certificate of Conformity should be
requested, this particularly applies to materials such as lubricants, adhesives and jointing compounds,
solvents and paints.
Raw materials must be supplied by distributor with copies of supporting documentation issued by the
manufacturer and any other distributor who may have passed on the material.
Note:
For new Parts Care should be exercised in ensuring compliance with airworthiness directives and the
status of any life limited parts fitted to the aircraft component as well as Critical Design Configuration
Control Limitations. (CDCCL)

Any staff member observing a Non -Conformance or receiving a complaint from maintenance is to raise an
SINCR (Non-conformance Report) and pass it to the Quality Assurance Manager.
It is the responsibility of the Quality Assurance Manager to ensure that all non-conformances are fully
investigated and actions taken.
A non-conformance can be any occurrence when a product or service does not comply with the
maintenance requirements, Airworthiness requirements or has not been supplied in accordance with the
company procedures. Corrective action must be taken to rectify the immediate situation and preventive
measures must also be taken to prevent a further occurrence of the same nature.
The procedure for recording non-conformances and taking corrective and preventive action is illustrated in
Appendix 1.
If the part is suspected of being unapproved (Suspect Unapproved part) or bogus it should be handled as
illustrated in Appendix 2. If it cannot be shown that the part is approved it should be moved to the
Quarantine area until appropriate action is determined.
If the Non-Conformance is resolved satisfactorily the receiving process for the part concerned may be
resumed. If the part was received in serviceable condition but there is some doubt, it should be treated as
unserviceable and an order raised for recertification.
Where any non-conformance cannot be resolved satisfactorily within a reasonable timescale the part
concerned should be transferred to Quarantine.
All parts in quarantine should be packed and separated from other parts and be clearly identified and
marked as a Quarantine part.
The Quarantine area should be clearly identified as such and preferably should be a separate secured
area.
Shelf life control
The Logistics Manager is responsible for ensuring parts do not exceed their authorized shelf life.
Each part on the IMS with a specified shelf life should have its shelf life recorded and parts wiithout a shelf
life should be indicated as such.
During the receiving process if it is seen that there is no shelf life recorded on the EASA (JAA) Form 1 or
there is no indication that the part does not have a shelf life, the Duty Logistic will check the Shelf Life
Manual as applicable to that item to see if a Shelf Life is applicable.
All parts being received Serviceable at Georgian Airways Georgian Airlines should have a Shelf Life stated
on the EASA (JAA) Form 1 and if it is different from that recorded on the IMS the Logistics Manager should
be consulted and an NCR raised.
If a Shelf Life is applicable then the period shall be entered onto the IMS as required. (Refer CMM).
The Store Controller check the stock regularly in order to identify the parts which shelf life will expire during
the following month. The Store Controller withdraws any expired part/material and places it in the
Quarantine area. The Logistic Manager takes decisions concerning these parts/materials (scrap, send to
some subcontractor for overhaul/repair, and return to the manufacturer or to the owner).
The Store Controller informs the Duty Logistic about the parts withdrawn.IMS List can be found in Store
computer in MS EXEL format. Back up has to be created on CD or Paper format.Inerval shoud be taken in
account- once a month.This is a responsibility of Store controller and Monitoring provaided by Duty
Logistic.
All parts, controlled by shelf life limit time should be clearly displayed on boxes by Labels and can be
enclosed to the Serviceable TAGs for Routable Parts controlled by shelf life time. The labels for routable
parts should be indicating follow: Certificate Date, Shelf-Days, EXP Shelf date.

Dangerous Goods
The following is a list of the types of part which are classified as Dangerous (For the full list refer to IATA
Dangerous Goods Regulations):
All such items shall be marked as Dangerous Goods on the IMS. Procedures related to Dangerouse Goods
is illustrated in Appendix 3.
The above list is not comprehensive as new articles are added frequently. Reference must be made to
the IATA regulations for a comprehensive list.
Hazardous Material.
Hazardous Material comprises all items shown above plus:
Segregation
Oil or Hydraulic Fluid must never be placed near Oxygen Bottles or Oxygen Charging rig equipment. This
creates a risk of Explosion.
Aircraft Batteries must be placed on the lowest shelf of any rack as they may leak and this reduces the risk
of Contamination of other parts.
Hydraulic Components should always be segregated from Avionic and Cabin equipment.
The racks where Hazardous and Dangerous Goods are stored should be clearly marked.
Oxygen Bottles.
Oxygen bottles will be handled as a class C explosive while in Georgian Airways care. The current shipping
regulations will be consulted before shipment.
Oxygen bottles should be stored in a fire proof cabinet arranged in a flat row in the approved container by
the vendor , ATA-300. Where one row is stacked on another the rows must be separated by a sheet of fire
proof Conolite.

Steps must be taken to avoid Oxygen bottles coming into contact with Fuel, Oil and hydraulic Fluids.
Chemical Oxygen Generators
Chemical oxygen generators differ from compressed gas oxygen cylinders in that the oxygen is produced
at the time of delivery. Sodium Chlorate, when heated to 478 degree F., releases gaseous oxygen. The
necessary heat for decomposition of the sodium chlorate is supplied by the oxygen generator chemical
core and the generators case temperature reaches 400 degrees F. The white stripe will darken to show
that the oxygen generator has been used.
Some chemical generators are activated by a firing pin system. When handling these generators a safety
pin must be installed before removal and during handling. The safety pin will remain intact during shipping
and is removed only after installation into the aircraft.
Chemical Oxygen Generators will be handled as a class C explosive (they are considered as pyrotechnic
devices) while in Georgian Airways care. The current shipping regulations will be consulted before
shipment.
Oxygen generators should be stored in a fire proof cabinet arranged in a flat row. Where one row is
stacked on another the rows must be separated by a sheet of fire proof Conolite.
In the event that Georgian Airways Georgian Airlines should store spent/discharged canisters they must be
treated as if they were full.
CAUTION. In the event that Georgian Airways has to ship empty or full canisters out of Georgian
Airways custody, the IATA Dangerous Goods Regulations must be consulted. Under NO
CIRCUMSTANCES can these items be shipped as common freight.
Nitrogen Bottles.
Nitrogen Botltles will be stored in the Wheel & Brake Store.
Serviceable and unserviceable Nitrogen Bottles are to be stored in separate areas with idenyification
placards.
Nitrogen Bottles shall be stored in the vertical position in a customised rack with protection cap and rings.
Protection cap shall be in place to protect Nitrogen bottle.
Fire Bottles.
Fire Botltles will be stored in the Store on seperate shelf in own original boxes(vendor or ATA-300).
Idenyification placards has to be supported with expire date.
Fire bottles shall be stored according to the Vendor requirements in a customised rack.
When shipping Fire Bottles IATA Dangerous Goods regulations must be consulted.
Fire Bottle Discharge Squibs
These items are very dangerous and are very sensitive to small electrical currents. A DC voltage of 10-29
volts at a minimum of 3 amps is required to fire each squib. However they have been known to discharge
with the static build up on a persons body.
If a squib is removed from a fire extinguisher bottle, extreme caution should be taken. An aluminium foil cap
shall be constructed and placed over the electrical pin area and taped in place. The purpose of the
aluminium is to provide a current path for any stray voltage from either and electrical source or static
electricity emitted from an individuals body upon contact.

PROCEDURE
Every shift is provided with their own tool set, which contain the standard tools, required to enable them to
carry out the work. They are responsible for its upkeep and security. Contents of tool kits are listed on
inventory sheet which is also to be used as a check list. During free of duty time these sets are held within
the store. Upon the completion of maintenance work and handing out, the tools that have been used are to
be checked for completeness by Store Controller. At regular intervals each month all tools are to be
checked for completeness and general condition. Evidence of these checks are to be indicated on the Tool
Control Form A9/INV/012.
Special tools and equipment are supplied by the company and are in the main, retained within the tool
store. Bulky items are held by the contracted maintenance organisation.
For all tools other than any bulky items, a Tool Issue Register (Form No A9/INV/008) is used to allow
traceability within the organisation. It is the responsibility of the Store Controller to ensure that movement of
tools are recorded in the register.
All tools should be checked prior to use to ensure they are complete, serviceable and the correct tool for
the job. Any unserviceable items must have a warning tag UNSERVICEABLE (A9/ENG/017), attached to
them with details of the reasons for the unserviceability and passed back to stores for repair. This is also
required if the tool becomes U/S whilst it is being used.
In case of tooling found unserviceable during use (damaged or expired date) the user must immediately
inform the QAM who takes the necessary corrective action (works already carried out with the concerning
tool).
In case of a tool loss, Lost/Scrap Equipment Report has to be filled (Form No A9/INV/011). If this loss could
affect implementation of any planned maintenance, it should be brought to the attention of the Production
Planning & MCC.
Tools must always be used in accordance with the Aircraft Maintenance Manual, Structural Repair Manual,

Loans are only to be taken when there is no Service Exchange item available.
The procedure for obtaining parts on loan is illustrated in Appendix 2. The following notes should be read in
conjunction with the flow chart.
When the loan part is ordered, a check must be made to ensure that a permanent replacement will be
available as soon as possible. This may be the return of a part from repair, purchase of a new part, or an
exchange from another source.
Every effort should be made to convert a loan to an exchange in order to avoid double replacement on the
aircraft, double shipping and double import/export charges.
Expediting action for parts required to effect loan swaps should be given high priority.
The return of the loan part following removal from the aircraft should be hastened with high priority.
If an exchange or loan part cannot be obtained consideration must be given to purchasing a part.
If part is needed on AOG basis away from base station, the maintenance provider (if any) of such line
station with whom the Agreement is signed is responsible for coordinating with Main Base for obtaining the
parts (on an emergency loan basis). All such parts must have an acceptable EASA (JAA) Form1 or
FAA8130-3.
When parts have been installed in this manner, it is imperative that mentioned above maintenance provider
will pass any paperwork supplied with the new part installed together with unservicable item removed. All
necessary entries have to be made into the IMS.

Loan items
When items, which have been on loan with the company, are to be returned, Line Maintenance will pass
the components to stores, once they have been put through the hold/re-certification system and issued with
a re-certification label (Form No A9/INV/009).
Once received, the stores department raises a serviceable tag (Form No A9/INV/005) for the component.
The items are dispatched using the current dispatch/carrier system unless specific instructions for an
alternative means of dispatch are received.

INTRODUCTION
1.1
Requirement
Purpose
The purpose of this prosedures is for ensuring that the Inventory is managed effectively, that costs are
monitored, effectiveness of the inventory is measured and airline assets safeguarded.
1.3
Responsibility
The Logistics Manager is responsible for managing the Inventory but various tasks will routinely be
undertaken by the Store Controller.
2.
PROCEDURE
2.1.
Used terms
Service Level
Stock Turn
The value of all parts issued from the inventory in one year divided by the average
value of inventory held.
Materials Costs
The total cost of providing materials support including inventory finance cost,
depreciation, materials support contracts, loans and exchanges, repair costs,
expendable purchases, and departmental costs.
2.2.
PROCEDURES
Inventory activity needs to be monitored to identify any changes in transaction levels, to ensure that all
activities are being undertaken in a timely manner and to identify parts for which appropriate action has not
been taken. Materials costs should be monitored to provide early identification of problems.
Reports providing the necessary information can be obtained from the IMS. Separate reports should be
produced for expendables and rotables and for Georgian Airways stock separately from any consignment
stocks.
Daily reports should be run to monitor activities within the department. They may also be needed as
working documents. The reports used may vary from time to time but typically should comprise the
following:
Open shortages.
Parts awaiting inspection.
US parts awaiting collection by/delivery to shipping agent.
Parts in customs
There are a number of routine activities which should be undertaken by Duty Logistic:
Holding Items (Open NCRs, Repairs, Warranty, Returns) should be monitored continuously to identify
parts requiring action. In addition, there is a need to compare the data on the IMS with the physical
position.
Back Order Items must be monitored continuously to identify purchasing action required.

Orders for expediting A report of parts on order or on repair which are within, say, 5 days of delivery
should be run periodically and hastening action taken.. This activity should be intensified for parts which
are overdue.
Exchange and Loans Returns. Parts due return against loans or exchanges should be monitored
frequently to ensure they are routed back to the suppliers rather than to a repair shop or into stock.

Purchases need to be made to meet immediate requirements (Back Orders), to replenish stock which has
reached the reorder point and to meet requirements identified in provisioning exercises.
This procedure is concerned with routine purchases. Special arrangements need to be in place to meet
AOG requirements and those requirements arising outside the office working hours.
Purchase Orders must always be placed with suppliers approved by the Georgian Airways Quality
Manager in accordance with PMP-01. The Quality Manager may give approval outside the requirements of
PMP-01 to meet exceptional circumstances.
One copy of each purchase order is printed. It will bear a signature block for the person authorising the
order which must be signed prior to sending the order to the supplier.
The order may be sent as an e-mail or faxed using the hard copy.
The system records due delivery dates and details of when expediting action has taken place and the latest
delivery promises from the supplier. Parts can be expedited by e-mail or fax. A report is extracted of all
parts within a specified number of days of delivery which are then expedited.
