Maintenance Concept and Eligibility
The maintenance concept of the MTOsport gyroplane is structured into 4 qualification levels:
Basic operational (OPR) Maintenance / Pilot Checks and Servicing
Line (LNE) Maintenance (inspection of Critical Parts (CP) included)
Heavy (HVY) Maintenance (Flight Safety Sensitive Maintenance Tasks, handling of CPs)
Specialized (SPC) Level Tasks (Major Modification, Repair & Overhaul, Special Topics)
The respective maintenance level for each maintenance task is printed in right hand position in the
header line on each Job Card as three-letter code for quick reference (see red circle in example
below)
and repeated under ‘GENERAL, REFERENCES AND REQUIREMENTS’.
Maintenance tasks may be carried out solely by persons or organizations fulfilling the requirements for
personal qualification, infrastructure and required equipment, and only in strict compliance with the
documentation and manuals listed in below table. Examples are provided for better illustration:
