3. Prepare for return of aircraft to service
   • Completion of all scheduled and unscheduled maintenance activities is coordinated in accordance with CASR Parts 42 145, 66 and the approved maintenance program
   • The requirement for a maintenance test flight is determined
   • Documentation is prepared for return of aircraft to service in accordance with CASR Part 42 and/or 145 and the approved maintenance program
4. Compile and process maintenance documentation and reports
   • Maintenance documentation is raised and compiled for certification
   • Configuration management procedures are applied
   • Maintenance-related reports are compiled and processed
   • Technical communication activities, both oral and written, are performed

Evidence Required

The evidence guide provides advice on assessment and must be read in conjunction with the performance criteria required skills and knowledge range statement and the Assessment Guidelines for the Training Package
Overview of assessment	A person who demonstrates competency in this unit must be able to apply without error legislative and regulatory requirements relating to the certification of aviation maintenance
Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit	It is essential that airworthiness compliance requirements are interpreted and fully applied without error Evidence is required of underlying knowledge and skills associated with the application of airworthiness legislation and compliance requirements along with evidence of appropriate levels of literacy and oral expression associated with presenting clear and concise information A person cannot be assessed as competent until it can be demonstrated to the satisfaction of the workplace assessor that the relevant elements of the unit of competency are being achieved under supervision without intervention on a range of tasks fully representative of Groups to in the Range Statement The body of evidence for this unit may be collected and logged during simulated activities at the CASR Part MTO andor performance during supervised workplace activities such as PCT assessments Knowledge must also be demonstrated of the concept of airworthiness that underpins the legislative framework and compliance requirements
Context of and specific resources for assessment	Competency should be assessed in the work environment under supervision but without intervention for the purpose of Journal entries andor by use of simulated activities in a CASR Part MTO covering the interpretation and application of airworthiness control and certification requirements
Method of assessment	This unit must be linked in its assessment and application to those that apply to the exercise of Aircraft Maintenance Engineer Licence or Aviation Maintenance Specialist privileges in the actual maintenance of aircraft
