5.005 DEFINITIONS
For the purpose of the Schedule, the following definitions shall apply —
(1) "Duplicate Inspections" means a Duplicate Inspection of the system that is required wherever any system that can affect the flight path, attitude, or propulsive force of an aircraft is disturbed, including the flight, engine, propeller, and landing gear controls, and the associated operating and support mechanisms, or whenever any defect is reported on such a system;
(i) after re-assembly, or satisfactory operational check, and prior to flight;
(ii) first carried out and certified by one appropriately type-rated AME and then subsequently carried out and certified by a second appropriately type-rated AME who took no part in the re-assembly;
(2) "Major modification" is as described in Appendix 1 to 5.005;
(3) "Major repair" is as described in Appendix 2 to 5.005;
(4) "Modification" means the alteration of an aircraft/aeronautical product in conformity with an approved standard;
(5) "Non-certificated Aircraft" means an aircraft, being an ultra-light aircraft, amateur-built; aircraft, kit-plane, or experimental aircraft, which has not been issued with a Type Certificate pursuant to Part V, Regulation 27, of these Regulations and therefore does not qualify for the issue of an Airworthiness Certificate;
(6) "Overhaul" means the restoration of an aircraft/aeronautical product using methods, techniques, and practices acceptable to the Authority, including disassembly, cleaning, and inspection as permitted, repair as necessary, and reassembly; and tested in accordance with approved standards and technical data, or in accordance with current standards and technical data acceptable to the Authority, which have been developed and documented by the State of Design, holder of the type certificate, supplemental type certificate, or a material, part, process, or appliance approval under Parts Manufacturing Authorisation (PMA) or Technical Standard Order (TSO);
(7) "Preventative maintenance" is as described in Appendix 3 to 5.005;
(8) "Rebuild" means the restoration of an aircraft/aeronautical product by using methods, techniques, and practices acceptable to the Authority, when it has been disassembled, cleaned, inspected as permitted, repaired as necessary, reassembled, and tested to the same tolerances and limits as a new item, using either new parts or used parts that conform to new part tolerances and limits. This work will be performed by only the manufacturer or an organization approved by the manufacturer, and authorised by the State of Registry; 中国航空网 www.aero.cn 航空翻译 www.aviation.cn 本文链接地址:飞机持续适航 CONTINUING AIRWORTHINESS OF AIRCRAFT(2)
