1. System Definitions.

System numbers are based on the Air Transport Association (ATA) Specification
Number 100 and items are numbered sequentially.

a. "Item" (Column 1) means the equipment, system, component, or function listed in the
"Item" column.

b. "Number Installed" (Column 2) is the number (quantity) of items normally installed in


the aircraft. This number represents the aircraft configuration considered in developing
this MMEL. Should the number be a variable (e.g., passenger cabin items) a number is
not required.

c. "Number Required for Dispatch" (Column 3) is the minimum number (quantity) of


items required for operation provided the conditions specified in Column 4 are met.

NOTE: Where the MMEL shows a variable number required for dispatch, the MEL must
reflect the actual number required for dispatch or an alternate means of configuration
control approved by the Administrator.

d. "Remarks or Exceptions" (Column 4) in this column includes a statement either


prohibiting or permitting operation with a specific number of items inoperative, provisos
(conditions and limitations) for such operation, and appropriate notes.

e. A vertical bar (change bar) in the margin indicates a change, addition or deletion in
the adjacent text for the current revision of that page only. The change bar is dropped at
the next revision of that page.

2. "Airplane/Rotorcraft Flight Manual" (AFM/RFM) is the document required for type


certification and approved by the responsible FAA Aircraft Certification Office. The FAA
approved AFM/RFM for the specific aircraft is listed on the applicable Type Certificate
Data Sheet.

3. "As required by FAR" means that the listed item is subject to certain provisions
(restrictive or permissive) expressed in the Federal Aviation Regulations operating rules.
The number of items required by the FAR must be operative. When the listed item is not
required by FAR it may be inoperative for the time specified by repair category.

4. Each inoperative item must be placarded to inform and remind the crewmembers and
maintenance personnel of the equipment condition.

23. Electronic fault alerting system – General

New generation aircraft display system fault indications to the flight crew by use of
computerized display systems. Each aircraft manufacturer has incorporated individual
design philosophies in determining the data that would be represented. The following are
customized definitions (specific to each manufacturer) to help determine the level of
messages affecting the aircraft's dispatch status. When preparing the MEL document,
operators are to select the proper Definition No. 23 for their aircraft, if appropriate.

a. BOEING (B-757/767, B-747-400, B-777)

Boeing airplanes equipped with Engine Indicating and Crew Alerting Systems (EICAS)
provide different priority levels of system messages (WARNING, CAUTION, ADVISORY,
STATUS and MAINTENANCE). Any messages that affects airplane dispatch status will
be displayed at a STATUS message level or higher. The absence of an EICAS STATUS
or higher level (WARNING, CAUTION, ADVISORY) indicates that the
system/component is operating within its approved operating limits or tolerances.

DEFINITIONS

System conditions that result only in a maintenance level message, i.e. no correlation
with a higher level EICAS message, do not affect dispatch and do not require action
other than as addressed within an operator’s standard maintenance program.

b. Boeing (B-717, MD-10, MD-11)

These aircraft are equipped with an alerting function which is a subsystem within the
Electronic Instrument System (EIS). The alerting function provides various levels of
system condition alerts (WARNING, CAUTION, ADVISORY, MAINTENANCE and
STATUS)

Alerts that affect aircraft dispatch will include WARNING, CAUTION, STATUS or
MAINTENANCE level. MAINTENANCE alerts are displayed on the status page of the
EIS display panel under the maintenance heading.

A MAINTENANCE alert on the EIS indicates the presence of a system fault which can
be identified by the Central Fault Display System (CFDS) interrogation. The systems are
designed to be fault tolerant, however, for any MAINTENANCE alert, the MEL must be
verified for dispatch purposes.

c. AIRBUS (A-300-600, A-310, A-318/320/319/321, A-330, A-340)

Airbus aircraft equipped with Electronic Centralized Aircraft Monitoring (ECAM) provide
different levels of system condition messages (WARNING, CAUTION, STATUS, and
ADVISORY). A-318/320/319/ 321, A-330, and A-340 also provide MAINTENANCE
status messages.

Any message that affects airplane dispatchability will normally be at the WARNING,
CAUTION or STATUS level. MAINTENANCE messages (A-318/319/320/321, A-330,
and A-340 only) are also indicated on ECAM Status Page below the white Maintenance
label.

A MAINTENANCE status (Class II) message on ECAM indicates the presence of a


system fault which can be identified by CFDS (A-318/319/320/321) or CMS (A-330/A-
340) interrogation. The systems are designed to be fault tolerant. For A-
318/319/320/321, MAINTENANCE STATUS (Class II) do not affect dispatch but are
listed in the MMEL. Dispatch is allowed without specific conditions except for:

- BLUE RSVR MAINTENANCE status: If applicable, and

- AIR BLEED MAINTENANCE status: As applicable.

For the A-330 and A-340, MAINTENANCE status messages do not affect dispatch.

d. FOKKER (FK-100)

Fokker aircraft are equipped with Multi Function Display System (MFDS) which provides
electronic message referring to the different priority levels of system information
(WARNING (red), CAUTION (amber), AWARENESS (cyan) AND STATUS (white). Any
messages that affects aircraft dispatch will be at the WARNING, CAUTION or
AWARENESS level. In these cases the MEL must be verified for dispatch capability and
maintenance may be required.

System conditions that only require maintenance are not ¦presented on the flight deck.
These maintenance indications/messages may be presented on the Maintenance & Test
Panel (MAP) or the Centralized Fault Display Unit (CFDU) and by dedicated Built in Test
Evaluation (BITE) of systems.

e. CANADAIR (CL-65, CL-604)

Canadair aircraft equipped with Engine Indication and Crew Alerting Systems (EICAAS)
provide four classes of messages (WARNING, CAUTION, ADVISORY, and STATUS).
Any message that affects aircraft dispatch will be at the WARNING, CAUTION, or
STATUS level.

System conditions that only require maintenance are not visible to the flight crew. These
maintenance indications/messages are only activated by maintenance personnel using
the Maintenance Diagnostics Computer.

f. EMBRAER (EMB-135/145, ERJ-170 Series)

The EMB-135/145 and ERJ-170/190 are equipped with an Engine Indicating and Crew
Alerting System (EICAS) that provides three different message levels: WARNING,
CAUTION, and ADVISORY. The ERJ-170/190 Series add STATUS messages.
Failures that effect dispatchability are presented to the flight crew at one of these levels.
Other failures may be presented only to the maintenance personnel on the Multi
Function Display (MFD) maintenance pages or through the download of the Central
Maintenance Computer (CMC). System conditions that result only in a maintenance
level message, i.e. no correlation with a higher level EICAS message, do not affect
dispatch and do not require action other than as addressed within an operator’s standard
maintenance program.

g. GULFSTREAM (G-IV, G-V, GV-SP, and GIV-X)

Gulfstream airplanes equipped with EICAS provide different priority levels of system
messages: WARNING (red), CAUTION (amber), ADVISORY, STATUS and
MAINTENANCE (cyan or blue). Any WARNING or CAUTION message affects airplane
dispatch status and requires that the Airplane Flight Manual or the MEL be used to
determine dispatch capability. STATUS messages which indicate a system failure (e.g.,
FMS-1 fail) require that the Airplane Flight Manual or the MEL be used to determine
dispatch capability. Maintenance messages do not affect airplane dispatch status. They
indicate the presence of a system fault which can be identified by Maintenance Data
Acquisition Unit (MDAU on the G-V) interrogation, Central Maintenance Computer (CMC
on the GV-SP/GIV-X) interrogation or by reference to the Airplane Flight Manual.

h. De- HAVILLAND (DASH 8 SERIES 400)

Series 400 aircraft are equipped with a Caution/Warning Panel that annunciates all
cautions and warnings. Advisory messages are displayed by the Electronic Indication
System (EIS) or individual advisory lights supplied in the cockpit.

“Class 1 failures” are failures that prevent continued operation of a specific Line
Replacement Unit or channel and are annunciated via advisory messages: caution,
warning or advisory lights in the flight compartment. Dispatch with such posted failures
are to be in accordance with the MMEL.

“Class 2 failures” are failures which do not prevent continued system function. These
faults will not be annunciated to the flight crew and the absence of the higher level alert
(warning, caution, advisory) indicates that the system/component is operating within its
approved operating limits or tolerances. Such faults would be evident during
maintenance interrogation performed during maintenance activities. Class 2 faults do
not affect dispatch and will be listed in the Fault Isolation Manual (FIM). Class 2 faults
will be left to the discretion of the operators when these faults are to be rectified.

24. "Administrative control item" means an item listed by the operator in the MEL for
tracking and informational purposes. It may be added to an operator's MEL by approval
of the Principal Operations Inspector provided no relief is granted, or provided conditions
and limitations are contained in an approved document (i.e. Structural Repair Manual,
airworthiness directive, etc.). If relief other than that granted by an approved document is
sought for an administrative control item, a request must be submitted to the
Administrator. If the request results in review and approval by the FOEB, the item
becomes an MMEL item rather than an administrative control item.

25."***" symbol in Column 1 indicates an item which is not required by regulation but
which may have been installed on some models of aircraft covered by this MMEL. This
item may be included on the operator's MEL after the approving office has determined
that the item has been installed on one or more of the operator's aircraft. The symbol,
however, shall not be carried forward into the operator's MEL. It should be noted that
neither this policy nor the use of this symbol provide authority to install or remove an
item from an aircraft.

26. "Excess Items" means those items that have been installed that are redundant to the
requirements of the FARs.

27. "Day of Discovery" is the calendar day an equipment/instrument malfunction was


recorded in the aircraft maintenance log and or record. This day is excluded from the
calendar days or flight days specified in the MMEL for the repair of an inoperative item of
equipment. This provision is applicable to all MMEL items, i.e., categories "A, B, C, and

PREAMBLE
(06/14/1989)

The following is applicable for authorized certificate holders operating under Federal
Aviation Regulations (FAR) Parts 121, 125, 129, 135: The FAR require that all
equipment installed on an aircraft in compliance with the Airworthiness Standards and
the Operating Rules must be operative. However, the Rules also permit the publication
of a Minimum Equipment List (MEL) where compliance with certain equipment
requirements is not necessary in the interests of safety under all operating conditions.
Experience has shown that with the various levels of redundancy designed into aircraft,
operation of every system or installed component may not be necessary when the
remaining operative equipment can provide an acceptable level of safety. A Master
Minimum Equipment List (MMEL) is developed by the FAA, with participation by the
aviation industry, to improve aircraft utilization and thereby provide more convenient and
economic air transportation for the public. The FAA approved MMEL includes those
items of equipment related to airworthiness and operating regulations and other items of
equipment which the Administrator finds may be inoperative and yet maintain an
acceptable level of safety by appropriate conditions and limitations; it does not contain
obviously required items such as wings, flaps, and rudders. The MMEL is the basis for
development of individual operator MELs which take into consideration the operator's
particular aircraft equipment configuration and operational conditions. Operator MELs,
for administrative control, may include items not contained in the MMEL; however, relief
for administrative control items must be approved by the Administrator. An operator's
MEL may differ in format from the MMEL, but cannot be less restrictive than the MMEL.
The individual operator's MEL, when approved and authorized, permits operation of the
aircraft with inoperative equipment.

Equipment not required by the operation being conducted and equipment in excess of
FAR requirements are included in the MEL with appropriate conditions and limitations.
The MEL must not deviate from the Aircraft Flight Manual Limitations, Emergency
Procedures or with Airworthiness Directives. It is important to remember that all
equipment related to the airworthiness and the operating regulations of the aircraft not
listed on the MMEL must be operative.

Suitable conditions and limitations in the form of placards, maintenance procedures,


crew operating procedures and other restrictions as necessary are specified in the MEL
to ensure that an acceptable level of safety is maintained.

The MEL is intended to permit operation with inoperative items of equipment for a period
of time until repairs can be accomplished. It is important that repairs be accomplished at
the earliest opportunity. In order to maintain an acceptable level of safety and reliability
the MMEL establishes limitations on the duration of and conditions for operation with
inoperative equipment.

PREAMBLE
(06/14/1989)

The MEL provides for release of the aircraft for flight with inoperative equipment. When
an item of equipment is discovered to be inoperative, it is reported by making an entry in
the Aircraft Maintenance Record/Logbook as prescribed by FAR. The item is then either
repaired or may be deferred per the MEL or other approved means acceptable to the
Administrator prior to further operation. MEL conditions and limitations, do not relieve the
operator from determining that the aircraft is in condition for safe operation with items of
equipment inoperative.

When these requirements are met, an Airworthiness Release, Aircraft Maintenance


Record/Logbook entry, or other approved documentation is issued as prescribed by
FAR. Such documentation is required prior to operation with any item of equipment
inoperative.

Operators are responsible for exercising the necessary operational control to ensure that
an acceptable level of safety is maintained. When operating with multiple inoperative
items, the interrelationships between those items and the effect on aircraft operation and
crew workload will be considered.

Operators are to establish a controlled and sound repair program including the parts,
personnel, facilities, procedures, and schedules to ensure timely repair.

WHEN USING THE MEL, COMPLIANCE WITH THE STATED INTENT OF THE
PREAMBLE, DEFINITIONS, AND THE CONDITIONS AND LIMITATIONS SPECIFIED
IN THE MEL IS REQUIRED
