4.4 CHECKLISTS
4.4.1 GENERAL
Inspection checklists, forms and other guidance materials will guide inspectors through the inspection process of a particular element area. Regardless of the purpose for the inspection (routine; annual inspection, special purpose audit) the checklists, forms and guidance materials are to be used as indicated. This ensures that all inspections are conducted in a uniform manner and that the results of the activity are appropriately documented.
4.4.2 SPECIFIC CHECKLISTS
Certain element area checklists or guidance documents provide a level of detail that is suitable for completing certification activities. The checklist or guidance document may, when completed, ensure a complete review of that particular aspect or characteristic of a company. Often, these checklists aid or assist inspectors (and operators who use the checklists during their certification activities) to interpret regulatory requirements in a standardized manner.
An example of this is the Master Minimum Equipment List / Minimum Equipment List Policy and Procedures Manual TP 9155. When the requirements of this manual have been addressed and all items have been assessed “OK”, then the operator would be ready to utilize specific MELs once approved for their aircraft type.
As indicated in section 3.3.3.3 of the IAM, there are times when it is not possible or necessary to examine 100% of a company’s systems. Sampling principles would then apply and inspectors are authorized to use this technique in meeting their objective. It is also important that the inspector document what element(s) were covered by the activity undertaken and what portions of the checklist(s) that were completed and what were not. This is simply indicated by using the “N/C” (not checked) box on the checklist or by providing a short narrative. Checklists utilized are to be appended to the appropriate company audit file and therefore will be available for review by follow-on inspection personnel/ audit teams; this will allow future inspections to focus on those areas that were not reviewed during the previous activity.
4.4.3 CHECKLIST AMENDMENT
Checklist(s) will be revised as required. Amendments are published as complete Parts. Current checklist revision date noted in the lower left corner of the checklist page footer should match the date for the applicable Part noted on the next page.
