(2) the ‘independent qualified person’ is the person who performs the independent inspection
and attests the satisfactory completion of the task and that no deficiencies have been found.
The ‘independent qualified person’ does not issue a certificate of release to service, therefore
they are not required to hold certification privileges;
(3) the ‘authorised person’ issues the certificate of release to service or signs off the completion of
the task after the independent inspection has been carried out satisfactorily;
(4) the work card system used by the organisation should record the identification of both persons
and the details of the independent inspection as necessary before the certificate of release to
service or sign-off for the completion of the task is issued.
(b) Qualifications of persons performing independent inspections
The organisation should have procedures to demonstrate that the ‘independent qualified person’ has
been trained and has gained experience in the specific inspection to be performed. The organisation
could consider making use of, for example:
(1) staff holding a certifying staff or support staff or sign-off authorisation or equivalent necessary
to release or sign off the critical maintenance task;
(2) staff holding a certifying staff or support staff or sign-off authorisation or equivalent necessary
to release or sign off similar task in a product of similar category and having received specific
practical training in the task to be inspected; or
(3) a commander holding a limited certification authorisation in accordance with 145.A.30(j)(4)
and having received adequate practical training and having enough experience in the specific
task to be inspected and on how to perform independent inspection.
(c) How to perform an independent inspection
An independent inspection should ensure correct assembly, locking and sense of operation. When
inspecting control systems that have undergone maintenance, the independent qualified person
should consider the following points independently:
(1) all those parts of the system that have actually been disconnected or disturbed should be
inspected for correct assembly and locking;
(2) the system as a whole should be inspected for full and free movement over the complete
range;
(3) cables should be tensioned correctly with adequate clearance at secondary stops;
(4) the operation of the control system as a whole should be observed to ensure that the controls
are operating in the correct sense;
(5) if different control systems are interconnected so that they affect each other, all the
interactions should be checked through the full range of the applicable controls; and
(6) software that is part of the critical maintenance task should be checked, for example: version,
compatibility with aircraft configuration.
(d) What to do in unforeseen cases when only one person is available
REINSPECTION:
(1) Reinspection is an error-capturing method subject to the same conditions as an independent
inspection is, except that the ‘authorised person’ performing the maintenance task is also
acting as ‘independent qualified person’ and performs the inspection.
(2) Reinspection, as an error-capturing method, should only be performed in unforeseen
circumstances when only one person is available to carry out the task and perform the
independent inspection. The circumstances cannot be considered unforeseen if the person or
Page 8 of 19
Annex II to ED Decision 2016/011/R
organisation has not assigned a suitable ‘independent qualified person’ to that particular line
station or shift.
(3) The certificate of release to service is issued after the task has been performed by the
‘authorised person’ and the reinspection has been carried out satisfactorily. The work card
system used by the organisation should record the identification and the details of the
reinspection before the certificate of release to service for the task is issued.’
— procedures to plan the performance by different persons of the same task in different systems;
— duplicate inspection or re-inspection procedures.’

systems that would be controlled by a CDCCL. Guidance on the training of maintenance organisation
personnel is provided in Appendix IV to AMC 145.A.35.’

Appendix XI to AMC M.A.708(c) provides guidance on the elements that need to be considered for the
maintenance contract between the CAMO and the maintenance organisation. The Part-145 organisation
should take into account these elements to ensure that a clear contract or work order has been concluded
before providing maintenance services.’
