CAR M Rev.01 Highlight

                                  The Revision-01 to CAR M is  issued to harmonise with regulations of EASA Part M issued after March 2010.
 Highlights of the CAR M Revision 01:-
  1. 1. The requirements, related AMCs and GMs have been brought together for easy reference purposes.
  2. Subsequent to the above arrangement, the Appendices have also been seperated as “Appendices to CAR M” and “Appendices to AMCs and GMs”.
  3. Reference to AME licenses as pre- CAR 66 have been replaced with post CAR-66 terminologies.
  4. Requirements for Critical Design Configuration Control Limitations (CDCCL) and training guide lines have been introduced.
  5. Scope of components maintenance enhanced to include and “Indicating Recording System”, “Water Ballast” and “Propulsion Augmentation system”.
  6. The scope of simple defect rectification, which can be accomplished by flight crew has been enhanced to include. a) Inspection for and removal of de-icing/anti-icing fluid residues. b) Removal/closure of panels, cowls or covers that is easily accessible but not requiring the use of special tools.
  7. Specific reference to CAR Section 1 Series C Part I for implementation of SMSM.A 201 K (Management Responsibilities) has been added.
  8. New AMC M.A 618 and M.A 715 have been added to provide better clarity about duration of approval in terms of calendar period.
  9. New AMC 1, AMC 2, AMC 3 and GM 1 have been added for M.B 303 (b) Aircraft Continuing Airworthiness Monitoring (ACAM) to provide more clarity in the scope of inspection and Key Risk Elements (KREs).
  10. Appendix III A to GM 303 (b) on Key Risk Elements (KRE) related to Aircraft Continuing Airworthiness Monitoring (ACAM) has been incorporated.
  11. Appendix XII to AMC on Fuel Tank Safety Training has been added.

Cessna 152 Magneto Check

MAGNETO CHECK. NEVER ADVANCE TIMING BEYOND SPECIFICATIONS IN ORDER TO REDUCE RPM DROP. Too much importance is being attached to RPM drop in single ignition. RPM drop on single ignition is a natural characteristic of dual ignition design. The purpose of the following magneto check is to determine that all cylinders are firing. If all cylinders are not firing, the engine will run extremely rough and cause for investigation will be quite apparent. The amount of RPM drop is not necessarily significant and will be influenced by ambient air temperature, humidity, airport altitude, etc. In fact, absence of RPM drop should be cause for suspicion that the magneto timing has been bumped up and is set in advance of the setting specified. Magneto checks should be performed on a comparative basis between individual right and left magneto performance. a. Start and run engine until the oil and cylinder head temperatures are in normal operating ranges. b. Advance engine speed to 1700 RPM. c. Tu

Brake System Cessna 172

                             BRAKE SYSTEM -MAINTENANCE PRACTICES              1. Description and Operation A. The hydraulic brake system is comprised of two master cylinders, located immediately forward of the  pilot’s rudder pedals, brake lines and hoses, and single-disc, floating cylinder brake assemblies located at  each main landing gear wheel. B. The parking brake system is comprised of a pull-type handle and mechanical connections which are  linked to the rudder pedal assembly. Pulling aft on the brake handle applies mechanical pressure to the  rudder pedals, activating the brakes and locks the handle in place. Turning the handle 90 degrees will  release the parking brake and allow for normal operation through the rudder pedals. C. Brake operation is accomplished by pushing on the upper part of each rudder pedal. This motion is  mechanically transmitted to the respective brake master cylinder, and through fluid-carrying lines out to  the brake assembly where fluid pressure

McCauley Propeller Installation fixed pitch

Image
Propeller Installation for all fixed pitch propellers (except 1A162 model propellers).                   WARNING: MAKE SURE THE MAGNETO IS GROUNDED BEFORE INSTALLING  THE PROPELLER OR CONNECTING EXTERNAL POWER.                NOTE: McCauley recommends that propeller mounting nuts (if applicable) be replaced at each  propeller installation, whenever possible. However, nuts may be reused providing the threads are in good condition and the locking material prevents turning of the nut on the  stud by hand. Propeller mounting bolts must be magnetic particle inspected in accordance  with ASTM E-1444 or replaced whenever the propeller is removed from the engine.                NOTE: The aircraft maintenance manual or STC installation instructions should always be  consulted for any specialized procedures applicable to a specific aircraft. Various spinner arrangements not manufactured by McCauley may be used which require additional procedures. (1) Make sure the mating surfaces of t
