Technical Records & Regulatory Compliance
Transforming complex aviation documentation into organized, audit-ready digital assets while ensuring strict adherence to Transport Canada, DGCA, EASA, and FAA standards.
Technical documentation forms the legal backbone of continued airworthiness and asset valuation in aviation. Missing logbook entries, incomplete component history cards, or unverified modification records can cause severe lease transition delays, operational groundings, or substantial financial penalties during lease returns and asset sales.
JetSkillz brings deep operational perspective and auditing rigor to every records project. Our background spans both rotary-wing maintenance records management and commercial airliner lease transition audits across global maintenance hubs in North America, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia.
Core Compliance Standards & Platforms:
- Regulatory Compliance Frameworks: Transport Canada Civil Aviation (CARs), European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).
- Enterprise Maintenance Software: Proficiency across WinAir, AMOS, TRAX, Airbus World, and AirNAV.
- Auditing Certifications: IALTA certifications in Aircraft Technical Records, Lease Transition Awareness, Engine & Landing Gear Records, and Structural Repair Documentation.
Specialized Service Capabilities
Technical Records Review & Maintenance Logbook Audits
- Comprehensive Record Audits: Systematic review of airframe, engine, APU, and landing gear maintenance logbooks to ensure complete task sign-offs, correct utilization logging, and alignment with approved Maintenance Program Guidelines (MPD).
- Work Order & Task Card Verification: Auditing historical work order packages, heavy maintenance C-check sign-offs, and daily flight log pages to resolve missing signatures, date discrepancies, or missing documentation.
- Logbook Consolidation & Reorganization: Structuring and volume-indexing physical logbooks into clear, logical binder sequences and searchable digital archives.
Airworthiness Directives (AD) & Service Bulletins (SB) Tracking
- Bi-Weekly AD/SB Status Verification: Cross-referencing current regulatory directives against fleet maintenance status reports to confirm complete, up-to-date compliance.
- One-Time & Recurring Inspection Tracking: Verifying compliance proof for mandatory structural, avionics, and engine Airworthiness Directives.
- STC & Modification Verification: Validating Supplemental Type Certificates (STCs), OEM Service Bulletins, and major repair documentation against approved engineering schemes.
Back-to-Birth Component Traceability & CHR Audits
- Component History Card (CHR) Audits: Meticulous verification of life-limited parts (LLPs), hard-time components, and engine accessories across flight hours (TSN), flight cycles (CSN), and overhaul thresholds (TSO/CSO).
- Back-to-Birth Traceability: Assembling continuous, unbroken documentation chains from original manufacturer release certificates (EASA Form 1, FAA 8130-3, Transport Canada Form One) to current installation status.
- Engine & Landing Gear Records: Detailed tracking of LLP stack sheets, engine disk life calculations, disk change records, and landing gear overhaul documentation.
Gap Analysis, Records Cleanup & Lease Redelivery Support
- Pre-Audit Gap Analysis: Identifying missing certificates, unrecorded modifications, or documentation gaps months ahead of regulatory audits or lease returns.
- Backlog Resolution: Direct on-site and remote technical support to clear piled-up records, reconcile work orders, and restore full audit readiness.
- Presale & Redelivery Bible Compilation: Structuring and indexing complete technical documentation packages (“Delivery Bibles”) to ensure smooth handovers between lessors, lessees, and buyer representatives.
