AVIATION SAFETY: FAA's Risk-Based Oversight for Repair Stations Could Benefit from Additional Airline Data and Performance Metrics
Note: The electronic version of this report was reissued September 2, 2016, to correct errors related to figure 1 on page 10.
Note: The United States and Canada have a bilateral aviation safety agreement under which FAA and the Transport Canada Civil Aviation Directorate (TCCA) each grant mutual recognition of the other's Part 145 repair station certificates. FAA does not require Canadian repair stations (referred to as Approved Maintenance Organizations) to obtain a FAA-issued repair station certificate to conduct work on U.S. commercial aircraft as long as a repair station maintains a Canadian repair station certificate and is inspected by TCCA. Because of this mutual recognition, there are no FAA-certificated repair stations in Canada.
