Introduction to Aircraft Management is a practical resource for aviation professionals, including pilots, aircraft maintenance engineers, Continuing Airworthiness Management Organizations, Civil Aviation Authority inspectors, airline personnel, independent contractors, and students.
Applicable to both helicopter and fixed-wing operations, the book explores how airworthiness, maintenance, and flight operations interact within the aircraft management framework. It addresses both privately operated aircraft and commercial air operator environments.
Drawing on regulatory perspectives from major aviation authorities - including the FAA, Transport Canada, EASA, San Marino, and the UK Overseas Territories - the authors present real operational scenarios and practical guidance based on decades of experience in the aviation industry.
Key topics include the airworthiness–flight operations–maintenance workflow, configuration control, AD and AMOC applicability, Instructions for Continued Airworthiness (ICA) applicability, technical records management, aircraft delivery and import/export processes and the development and customization of company manuals.
Introduction to Aircraft Management provides aviation professionals with a structured framework to organize operations, navigate regulatory requirements, and maintain safety and compliance across jurisdictions.
