MEL Recurrent

What the Course is About

On the ground, an aircraft is considered “airworthy” when its “physical state matches its design”, and so it is considered to be in a good condition for a safe operation. However, you can also achieve an acceptable level of safety for an aircraft which has known failures –  and this is where the Minimum Equipment List (or MEL) comes in. The MEL is the operator’s tool which provides an approved way to determine the required conditions under which a flight can be commenced safely with inoperative equipment. 

The MEL is a document which needs to be customised for a specific aircraft and required approval from respective National Aviation Authorities. The operator is ultimately responsible for the MEL customisation. 

This course  follows EASA regulation, and covers some of the basic principles of MELs.
