8.Repairs to the upholstery or decorative furnishings of the interior of the cabin or cockpit.
The rip could occur away from where equipment needed to be fixed is not available to the pilot or the pilot does not have the-where-with-all to fix it.
It is a defect, therefore endorse the MR.
Now we have two options;
1. If the defect is
not endorsed "
aircraft not airworthy" (CAR 47) the aircraft can be flown back to maintenance.
or
2. If the pilot has the knowledge and tools to repair the defect
Under Schedule 8, a pilot can repair it.
As the pilot has conducted the maintenance, the pilot signs, dates and inserts his/her ACN certifying that maintenance has been done.
601, I don't follow the reference? Can you elaborate?
CAR 47(1) requires an endorsement on a MR to be endorsed with "
aircraft unairworthy" if the defect is a defect that falls under 47(1).
