Commercial Air Operators are required to have an approved system or method for detecting defects on each type of aircraft operated. These are known as:
- A.
Minimum equipment lists
- B.
Deferred defect procedures
- C.
Required equipment lists
- D.
Approved equipment lists
Correct Answer
B. Deferred defect proceduresExplanation
Deferred defect procedures allow commercial air operators to manage and track defects that do not immediately ground an aircraft. These procedures are part of an airline's maintenance and safety management system, ensuring that any non-critical defects are documented, monitored, and rectified in a timely manner, without immediately affecting the aircraft's operational status. This contrasts with Minimum Equipment Lists (MELs), which specify equipment that must be operational for the aircraft to be considered airworthy.Rate this question:

- C.
Airworthiness Appeal Board
- D.
Transport Canada Appeal Board
Correct Answer
B. The Civil Aviation TribunalExplanation
Under the Aeronautics Act, the Civil Aviation Tribunal (now known as the Transportation Appeal Tribunal of Canada or TATC) serves as the forum for hearing appeals and reviewing decisions made by aviation authorities, including enforcement actions and aviation-related disputes. It provides an independent process to ensure fairness in the application of regulations. None of the other options, such as the Airworthiness Appeal Board or Air Engineering Committee, have the same function or jurisdiction as the Civil Aviation Tribunal in handling appeals under the Aeronautics Act.Rate this question:

Manufacturer Service Bulletins are:
- A.
Mandatory for all aircraft, with the exception of aircraft in the amateur built and owner maintenance categories
- B.
Mandatory only if marked mandatory by the aeronautical product manufacturer
- C.
Mandatory if mandated by the civil aviation authority that controls the type design
- D.
Mandatory only in the country of origin.
Correct Answer
C. Mandatory if mandated by the civil aviation authority that controls the type designExplanation
Manufacturer Service Bulletins are mandatory if mandated by the civil aviation authority that controls the type design. This means that if the authority responsible for regulating and certifying the aircraft determines that a service bulletin is necessary for the safety or airworthiness of the aircraft, it becomes mandatory for all aircraft of that type. It does not matter if the aircraft is in the amateur built or owner maintenance categories, and it is not dependent on whether the manufacturer marks it as mandatory or limited to the country of origin.Rate this question:
