AviationManuals has developed an updated version of its aircraft minimum equipment list (MEL) guide. Revisions to the free guide are based on the analysis of hundreds of MELs that have been submitted to aviation authorities from around the globe.
The revised guide offers answers to common questions regarding MELs such as regulatory requirements, key elements of MELs, revisions, and the difference between a master MEL and a MEL.
“By working closely with operators and regulatory authorities we are able to discover common trends and pitfalls when it comes to MELs,” said AviationManuals CEO Mark Baier. “We have shared some of the key findings in this latest update.”
These trends and pitfalls are encompassed in a new section developed for the revised guide. They include proper referencing of other manuals and documents within a MEL, as well as demonstrating the importance of ensuring the equipment noted in the MEL is accurate.
