CAO 104.0 Manual

V1.1 - June 2015

Disclaimer
This manual template has been prepared to guide and assist Certificate of Approval (COA)
holders who propose to train and authorise maintenance certification staff under the provisions
of Civil Aviation Order (CAO) 104.0. The procedures and training plans that are set out in this
manual represent the minimum acceptable standards that are required in order to satisfy the
requirements set out in CAO 104.0.
It is not a prerequisite that this manual must be used in order to obtain an approval to authorise
certification staff; however, the training outcomes specified in each section of this manual must
be met or exceeded for each particular aircraft or system for which training is to be given.
An applicant for approval under CAO 104.0 may use any form of manual that suits the particular
COA holder provided that these minimum requirements are incorporated into that manual.

How to use this manual


This manual is made up of six general and four training topics:
General

Sections 1 to 5 describe the general administration and management processes


applicable to the training procedures
Section 10 provides practical performance assessment guidelines for use within each
of sections 6, 7, 8 and 9.

Training

Section 6 describes the procedures for training and authorising warbirds, historic and
replica aircraft (WHR) employees
Section 7 describes procedures for training and authorising certain excluded type
employees
Sections 8 and 9 describe the procedures for training and authorising excluded
system employees in wood aircraft structures and/or fabric coverings.
If you do not wish to use the full scope of the training manual, you may delete one or
more of sections 6, 7, 8 and 9. However, if you propose to use this manual in part or in
its entirety, then you should read the manual carefully and ensure that you are able to
incorporate the chosen sections into your organisational procedures. Once approved,
you will be required by regulation 11.077 of the Civil Aviation Safety Regulations 1998
(CASR ) to comply with the manual. Therefore, you should ensure that it is specific to
your operations, not just a generic manual with your name on the cover page.

Important note: When assessing an application for a delegation under subregulation 42ZC (6)
of Civil Aviation Regulation 1988 (CAR) Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA) will refuse the
application if the manual does not meet these minimum requirements.

Wherever a blank space appears, you will be required to ensure that you insert the appropriate
information. Depending on context, the required information may be any of the following:

your name or the name that is shown on your COA


your Aviation Reference Number (ARN)
the identifying details of an aircraft as shown in the Part 66 Manual of Standards (MOS)
the name of the person responsible for managing the training program
the name of an employee under training.

If a phrase, position name or title is shown with multiple options (e.g. Training/Quality Manager)
you should remove all but the correct option for your organisation. If the position is held under a
different title in your organisation - use that title.

Approved training providers

Instruction will be provided by personnel experienced and qualified in the type of maintenance
training being given to an individual under this training plan.
Training will be given in an on-the-job format or a combination of on-the-job and theoretical
training. The makeup of the training will be decided by the training manager, based on an
assessment of the needs of the individual trainee and the complexity of the particular aircraft.
Training can be given by approved licence holders or task specialists with recognised skills and
experience in the relevant discipline. In the case of ex-military aircraft, training may also be
provided by non-licenced individuals who have provided or supervised maintenance for a
particular Part 1 aircraft in the military environment or provided maintenance training for the
particular aircraft in the military environment.
Approved training personnel will be listed in a register of trainers contained in each relevant
section of this manual and be revised as instructors are added or removed.

Assessment for initial issue of a Part 1 certification


authorisation

Upon successful completion of training, a trainee will be assessed in accordance with the
assessment guidelines set out in Section 10 of this manual. Assessment will be made by the
approved training provider conducting the training. The results will be reviewed by the
Training/Quality Manager.
If the Training/Quality Manager is satisfied that the trainee has achieved an acceptable level of
competency in all knowledge topics listed in Table 1 and the maintenance tasks listed in Table 2,
the trainee will be issued with a certification authorisation for the Part 1 aircraft in which the
training and assessment was given. The certification authorisation will be valid for not more than
2 years from the date of issue.
Personnel holding current Part 66 licences in the category and ratings that cover a particular
Part 1 aircraft will be deemed to have met the training requirements as specified in Section 8 of
CAO 104.0 and may be issued with a Part 1 certification authorisation.
Personnel who hold a CASA issued maintenance authorisation issued under regulation 33B or

Assessment for re-issue of a Part 1 certification authorisation

At the end of a 2 year period since issue or reissue of a certification authorisation, the
Training/Quality Manager must assess the trained WHR employee to re-issue the certification
authorisation for a further 2 years.
If, in the view of the Training/Quality Manager, no additional or refresher training is required, the
certification authorisation may be reissued accordingly.
If, in the view of the Training/Quality Manager, further training is required, a training plan will be
drawn up based on the assessed training needs.
Training for re-issue may be given by an authorised trainer or an employee who holds an
equivalent valid certification authorisation.
Certification authorisations held by employees on the basis of a CASA issued authorisation or
type rating, may be reissued without further assessment at the Training/Quality Managers
discretion.
