ONSHORE AND OFFSHORE MAINTENANCE More than 80 per cent of all Qantas aircraft heavy maintenance has been carried out at Qantas facilities in Australia for many years. When these facilities are at capacity, top tier overseas operations, certified by the Australian Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA), other national safety regulators and Qantas are used. All work is supervised by onsite Qantas engineers, and the facilities are regularly audited in accordance with Australian regulations.
INTERNATIONAL APPROVAL Qantas Engineering holds regulatory approval from CASA, the United States Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), the Australian Department of Defence and many other foreign regulatory authorities and airlines. It is also accredited under the international standard for Quality Assurance ISO9001-2000. This confirms that Qantas Engineering not only meets the safety criteria of aviation authorities, but also achieves world standards for delivery, cost and other factors vital to customers.
