Elements and Performance Criteria

1. Perform airworthiness review tasks
   • Level of authorisation to perform airworthiness review tasks is determined
   • Continuing airworthiness records for the aircraft under review are obtained
   • Airworthiness status of the aircraft is determined
   • The aircraft is surveyed for compliance with regulations and with the aircraft’s approved type design
   • The completion of any required corrective action is verified
   • A record of the review is written in accordance with CAMO procedures
   • The airworthiness review certificate is raised and issued in accordance with CAMO procedures, or, where applicable, a notice of decision not to issue an airworthiness review certificate is raised and issued
2. Perform maintenance program approval tasks
   • Level of authorisation to perform maintenance program approval tasks is determined
   • Maintenance programs are developed in accordance with applicable regulations and CAMO procedures
   • Variations to approved maintenance programs are developed in accordance with applicable regulations and CAMO procedures
   • Maintenance schedules are developed in accordance with CAMO procedures for inclusion in the maintenance program
