3. THE REASONS BEHIND ICA POLICY FSAW 98-03 HBAW 98-18 CHECKLIST REVIEW
OVERVIEW
THE REASONS BEHIND ICA POLICY
FSAW 98-03
HBAW 98-18
CHECKLIST REVIEW
OVERVIEW:
THE REASONS BEHIND THE NEW ICA POLICY:
FLIGHT STANDARDS INFORMATIONAL BULLETIN THIS IS THE DOCUMENT THAT ESTABLISHED THE ICA POLICY IN JANUARY OF 1998
FLIGHT STANDARDS AIRWORTHINESS BULLETIN THIS DOCUMENT ESTABLISHED THE ICA CHECK LIST
LAST---WE WILL GO OVER THE CHECKLIST.

4. GOAL:
CONVINCE MECHANICS THAT ICA ARE FOR THEIR BENEFIT, AND WILL SOLVE MORE PROBLEMS THEN THEY CREATE.
HERE IS OUR GOAL:
I HAVE BE ASSIGNED THE NEAR IMPOSSIBLE TASK TO CONVINCE YOU, THAT THE NEW POLICY ON INSTRUCTIONS FOR CONTINUING AIRWORTHINESS ARE FOR YOUR BENEFIT.
FORTUNATELY THIS WON’T BE HARD TO DO BECAUSE ONCE YOU KNOW THE REASONS BEHIND THE ESTABLISHMENT OF ICA AND THE BENEFITS THAT YOU---AS A MECHANIC---WILL RECEIVE---YOU WILL AT LEAST GIVE IT LUKE-WARM APPROVAL.

5. QUESTION: WHAT ARE: INSTRUCTIONS FOR CONTINUED AIRWORTHINESS (ICA)?
WHAT ARE INSTRUCTIONS FOR CONTINUED AIRWORTHINESS OR ICA???

6. ANSWER: INSTRUCTIONS FOR CONTINUED AIRWORTHINESS ARE:
PROCEDURES FOR MAINTENANCE,
INSPECTIONS, ALLOWABLE WEAR,
TOLERANCES, TROUBLE SHOOTING,
REPAIRS, ETC., ESSENTIAL TO THE
CONTINUED AIRWORTHINESS OF THE
AIRCRAFT. (THINK MAINTENANCE MANUAL FOR STUFF YOU ADD ON)
INSTRUCTIONS FOR CONTINUED AIRWORTHINESS ARE:
PROCEDURES FOR MAINTENANCE, INSPECTIONS, ALLOWABLE WEAR, TOLERANCES, TROUBLE SHOOTING INFORMATION, REPAIRS, ETC. THAT ARE ESSENTIAL TO THE CONTINUED AIRWORTHINESS OF THE AIRCRAFT THAT YOU WORK ON.

7. INSTRUCTIONS FOR CONTINUED AIRWORTHINESS
ARE FOUND IN:
APPENDIX G OF PART 23
APPENDIX H OF PART 25
INSTRUCTIONS FOR CONTINUED AIRWORTHINESS IS NOT “NEW” POLICY! ICA CAN BE FOUND IN OLD RULES (ODD NUMBERS) AND NEW RULES (EVEN NUMBERS)
INSTRUCTOR READ SOME OF THE RULES SUCH AS:
SECTION 21.50, Instructions for continued airworthiness and manufacturer’s maintenance manuals having airworthiness limitations section.
SECTION Instructions for continued airworthiness (engines)
SECTION Instructions for continued airworthiness (propellers)
YOU KIND OF GET THE DRIFT, THAT BOTH THE OLD AND THE NEW REGULATIONS TALKED TO INSTRUCTIONS FOR CONTINUED AIR- WORTHINESS.

8. INSTRUCTIONS FOR CONTINUED AIRWORTHINESS
ARE ALSO FOUND IN THE FAR:
43.13(a) PERFORMANCE RULES
43.15 ADDITIONAL PERFORMANCE RULES
43.16 A/W LIMITATIONS
91.403(c) GENERAL
INSTRUCTIONS FOR CONTINUED AIRWORTHINESS ARE ALSO FOUND IN THE FAR---IN PART 43, THREE RULES OR SECTIONS SPEAK TO INSTRUCTIONS FOR CONTINUED AIRWORTHINESS.
SECTION (C) USES VERY STRONG REGULATORY LANGUAGE THAT SAYS: NO PERSON MAY OPERATE AN AIRCRAFT UNLESS INSTRUCTIONS FOR CONTINUED AIRWORTHINESS ARE COMPLIED WITH.

9. HEY FAA!! HOW COME WE NEVER HEARD ABOUT “ICA” BEFORE?

10. ANSWER:
FOR THE LONGEST TIME “ICA” WAS A LOT LIKE THE ELECTORAL COLLEGE, ICA SEEM TO WORK OK IF WE DIDN’T THINK ABOUT IT TOO MUCH.
FOR THE LONGEST TIME INSTRUCTIONS FOR CONTINUED AIRWORTHINESS WAS A LOT LIKE THE ROLE THAT THE ELECTORAL COLLEGE PLAYS IN THE ELECTION OF THE PRESIDENT---- (THAT IS THE ORGANIZATION THAT REALLY ELECTS THE PRESIDENT. )
FOR MANY YEARS ICA SEEMS TO WORK OK, LIKE THE ELECTORAL COLLEGE, IF WE DIDN’T THINK ABOUT IT TOO MUCH.

11. ANSWER:
BUT WE DID HAVE TO START THINKING ABOUT “ICA” DURING THE RULE MAKING PROCESS FOR THE NEW PART 135, SINGLE ENGINE, IFR, PASSENGER CARRYING RULE (REF: (d))
BUT WE DID HAVE TO START THINKING ABOUT “ICA” DURING THE RULE MAKING PROCESS FOR THE NEW PART 135, SINGLE ENGINE, IFR, PASSENGER CARRYING RULE
(REF: (D)

12. PART 135 SEIFR RULE REQUIRES:
ALTERNATIVE SOURCE OF ELECTRICAL POWER
STAND-BY VACUUM SYSTEM SO
MANY OF THESE ALTERATIONS WOULD BE PERFORMED UNDER A FIELD APPROVAL.
THE NEW PART 135 RULE THAT CAME OUT IN May 3, IT REQUIRES AN ALTERNATIVE SOURCE OF ELECTRICAL POWER, AND A STAND BY VACUUM SYSTEM. SINCE THE MAJORITY OF THESE MAJOR ALTERATIONS TO SINGLE ENGINE, RECIP. AIRCRAFT WILL BE APPROVED UNDER A FIELD APPROVAL.

13. PART 135 RULEMAKING FOUND:
THAT NO POLICY OR REQUIREMENTS FOR ICA EXISTED FOR FIELD APPROVED MAJOR ALTERATIONS REQUIRED BY FAR (d) ADDITIONAL MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS.
IN THE DISCOVERY PART OF RULEMAKING WE FOUND THAT WE DID NOT HAVE ANY ICA POLICY IN PLACE FOR FIELD APPROVED MAJOR ALTERATIONS.
WE HAD TO DEVELOP THE ICA POLICY FOR “ALL” FIELD APPROVALS OR THE FAA LEGAL DEPARTMENT WOULD CANCEL FIELD APPROVALS FOR MAJOR ALTERATIONS FOR PART 91 OPERATIONS.
SINCE 89 FAA FIELD OFFICES PERFORM OVER 20,000 FIELD APPROVALS FOR MAJOR ALTERATION PER YEAR, CANCELING FIELD APPROVAL PROCESS WOULD HAVE A DEVASTATING IMPACT ON GENERAL AVIATION.

14. PART 135 RULEMAKING FOUND:
SO WE HAD TO DEVELOP ICA POLICY FOR FIELD APPROVALS OR THE FAA General Council WOULD CANCEL FIELD APPROVALS FOR MAJOR ALTERATIONS.

15. OTHER PROBLEMS:
WITHOUT “ICA” THE MECHANIC WHO HAS TO MAINTAIN THE MAJOR ALTERATION (CHANGE TO THE TYPE DESIGN) WITH NO MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS IS FORCED TO STRETCH THE TRUTH IN THE LOG BOOK ENTRY.
BEFORE ICA CAME ALONG A MECHANIC WHO HAD TO MAINTAIN A FIELD APPROVED MAJOR ALTERATION WITH “NO” MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS WAS FORCED TO STRETCH THE TRUTH IN THE LOG BOOK ENTRY.
FOR EXAMPLE. A FIELD APPROVED VCR IN A CORP. JET IS BROKEN. THERE IS NO MANUAL FOR IT. IT IS NOT A PMA OR TSO PART. HOW DO YOU FIX IT? IN THE REAL WORLD YOU TAKE TO A VCR DEALER, HE FIXES IT, THE MECHANIC INSTALLS IT. NOW HOW DO YOU SIGN IT OFF? FIX BROKEN WIRE????????????????????

16. LIKE WHAT?
YOU INSTALLED TUNDRA TIRES ON A PA UNDER A FIELD APPROVAL 7 YEARS AGO BUT THEY ARE NOW WORN OUT. WHAT DO YOU DO?

17. LIKE WHAT?
YOU SIGN OFF AN ANNUAL/100 HOUR INSPECTION ON AN PIPER WITH 4 MAJOR ALTERATIONS UNDER A FIELD APPROVALS USING THE MFG. INSPECTION PROGRAM.
ARE YOU LEGAL?

18. THE SOLUTION
THE SOLUTION HERE IS A UNIQUE WAY TO SOLVE SEVERAL PROBLEMS AT ONCE.

19. SOLUTION:
SINCE THE RULES WERE ALREADY IN PLACE REQUIRING “ICA” WE DEVELOPED NEW POLICY.
FSAW FLIGHT STANDARDS BULLETIN (AIRWORTHINESS) CHANGED THE FAA INSPECTOR’S POLICY ON FIELD APPROVALS TO REQUIRE “ICA.”(dated: )
SOLUTIONS
SINCE THE RULES WERE ALREADY IN PLACE REQUIRING “ICA” WE DEVELOP NEW POLICY. FIRST WAS FSAW WHICH CHANGE THE FAA INSPECTOR’S POLICY ON FIELD APPROVALS TO REQUIRE ICA SEE THE HANDOUT!

20. HBAW 98-03 REQUIRES: “ICA” FOR FIELD APPROVED MAJOR ALTERATIONS ONLY.
“ICA” MUST BE ATTACHED TO THE FORM 337.
“ICA” BECOMES PART OF THE AIRCRAFT’S INSPECTION PROGRAM.
LOG BOOK ENTRY FOR THE MAJOR ALTERATION MENTIONS “ICA.”
THE BULLETIN REQUIRED “ICA” FOR FIELD APPROVED MAJOR ALTERATIONS ONLY----NOT---I SAY AGAIN---NOT ---FIELD APPROVED MAJOR REPAIRS!!!!
THE ICA MUST BE ATTACHED TO THE FORM THIS IS BECAUSE SECTION REQUIRES THAT MAJOR ALTERATIONS BE KEPT FOREVER—AND YOU WANT TO HAVE A RECORD OF THE ICA WHERE YOU CAN GET YOUR HANDS ON IT
THE ICA NOW BECOMES PART OF THE AIRCRAFT’S INSPECTION PROGRAM BECAUSE THE MAJOR ALTERATION HAS CHANGED THE TYPE DESIGN, THE NEW AIRWORTHINESS REQUIREMENTS MUST BE MAINTAINED!
THE ICA MUST ALSO BE RECORDED IN THE A/C LOG IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 43.9

21. ICA FACTS: “ICA” ARE FOR FIELD APPROVED MAJOR ALTERATIONS ONLY
“ICA IS CONSIDERED “ACCEPTABLE” DATA ONLY JUST LIKE ANY OTHER MAINTENANCE MANUAL.
“ICA” ARE ATTACHED TO FORM 337 TO ENSURE THE “ICA” ARE NOT LOST OR MISPLACED.
MECHANICS CAN DEVELOP AN ICA AND HAVE THE FAA “ACCEPT” THEM.
ICA FACTS------THIS IS MEMORY REINFORCEMENT!!!!
ICA” ARE FOR FIELD APPROVED MAJOR ALTERATIONS ONLY!!
“ICA IS CONSIDERED “ACCEPTABLE” DATA ONLY JUST LIKE ANY OTHER AIRCRAFT MAINTENANCE MANUAL. REF: AC THE IA STUDY GUIDE
“ICA” ARE ATTACHED TO FORM 337 TO ENSURE THE “ICA” ARE NOT LOST OR MISPLACED. (A MAJOR ALTERATION RECORD IS FOREVER!)
MECHANICS CAN DEVELOP AN ICA AND REQUEST THE FAA TO ACCEPT THEM. GIVE CONTROL BACK TO MECHANICS WHO MAKE THE FINAL AIRWORTHINESS DECISION.

22. PROBLEM:
INITIALLY BOTH THE FAA INSPECTORS AND INDUSTRY DID NOT LIKE THE NEW POLICY.
WHEN ICA HIT THE AVIATION COMMUNITY AND THE FAA FIELD OFFICES ICA POLICY WAS A WELCOME AS A HAIR BALL IN ONE’S COLON.
THE BIGGEST COMPLAINT WAS HOW DOES ONE DEVELOP A “ICA”??????????

23. SOLUTION:
SINCE THE MAJOR PROBLEM WAS IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF “ICA” A CHECK LIST WAS THE SOLUTION.
FLIGHT STANDARDS HANDBOOK BULLETIN FOR AIRWORTHINESS (HBAW) INCLUDED A CHECK LIST FOR “ICA.”(dated )
SINCE THE MAJOR PROBLEM WAS HOW IN THE WORLD DO YOU DEVELOP AN “ICA”???
A EASY TO USE “CHECK LIST” WAS THE SOLUTION.
FLIGHT STANDARDS HANDBOOK BULLETIN FOR AIRWORTHINESS (HBAW) INCLUDED A CHECK LIST FOR “ICA.”(dated ) OR IN OTHER WORDS IF ONE FAA BULLETIN DOESN’T FIX THE PROBLEM, TRY ANOTHER!

24. SOLUTION: CHECKLIST IS NOW IN FAA ORDER 8300.10 VOL. 2 CHAPTER 1, ANDAC

25. 8300.10 ASI Handbook STANDARDIZED THE FIELD APPROVAL PROCESS FOR “ICA”
SUPPORTS FSAW 98-03
FORMALIZES FAA POLICY DOES A FEW OTHER “NEAT” THINGS.
HBAW PROVIDED A WORKABLE SOLUTION IF EVERY BODY WOULD READ IT!
THE BULLETIN PROVIDED:
STANDARDIZED THE FIELD APPROVAL PROCESS FOR “ICA”
SUPPORTS AND REINFORCES THE ORIGINAL POLICY IN FSAW 98-03
FORMALIZES FAA POLICY BY CHANGING THE FAA INSPECTOR’S HANDBOOK.
AND IT DOES A FEW OTHER “NEAT” THINGS.

26. LIKE WHAT?

28. NEAT THINGS: INFORMATION. INSTRUCTIONS ON REPLACEMENT OF PARTS.
RECORD KEEPING
INFORMATION.
INSTRUCTIONS ON
REPLACEMENT OF PARTS.
INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO
REVISE THE “ICA.”
NEAT THINGS--THE CHECK LIST
GIVES YOU RECORD KEEPING INFORMATION.
INSTRUCTIONS ON REPLACEMENT OF PARTS.----(ICA APPROVES REPLACEMENT PARTS----THE OLD FIELD APPROVAL POLICY DID NOT INCLUDE REPLACEMENT OF PARTS. READ THE HANDOUT!
INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO REVISE
THE “ICA.” LIST THE NAME OF FAA RESOURCES FOR FAA FIELD INSPECTORS TO CONTACT FOR ADDITIONAL HELP.

29. “ICA” CHECK LIST REVIEW
INSTRUCTOR: SPEND SOME TIME ON THE CHECKLIST---TRY TO USE EXAMPLES OR USE MY EXAMPLE OF INSTALLING A NUCLEAR POWERED PORT-A-POTTY IN AN A/C. THE NUCLEAR POWERED PORT-A POTTY IS HEAVY BUT YOU DO NOT NEED A HOLDING TANK, OR TOILET PAPER, BUT IF IT IS NOT PROPERLY CALIBRATED, YOU WON’T HAVE CHILDREN EITHER.

30. “ICA” CHECKLIST: THE CHECK LIST MUST ADDRESS THE FIRST 16 ITEMS.
“ICA” MUST BE MENTIONED ON
BLOCK 8 OF THE FORM 337 AND
ATTACHED TO THE 337.
IF A CHECKLIST ITEM DOES NOT
APPLY, WRITE “N/A” AFTER THE
ITEM.
THE MECHANIC MUST ADDRESS THE FIRST 16 CHECK LIST ITEMS.
“ICA” MUST BE MENTIONED ON BLOCK 8 OF THE FORM 337 AND ATTACHED TO THE 337.
IF A CHECKLIST ITEM DOES NOT APPLY WRITE “N/A” AFTER THE ITEM.
