DEFECT DEFERRAL
PURPOSE
This procedure provides the instructions in accordance with customer procedure to defer the
defects, which do not affect the safe operations of the aircraft, in accordance with approved
or accepted data as MEL, CDL, NSRIL and other documents as AMM, SRM, EO, EA or similar
(referred generically as “non MEL items”).
It is reminded that a request for deferral procedure must only be issued when defect
rectification can not immediately be performed due to a lack of resources availability (spares,
engineers, tools, time, etc.), not related to safety and airworthiness issues and approved by
customer. It is reminded that customer procedure for defect deferral and recording shall be
complied at all times.
PROCEDURE
The detailed steps of the procedure are the following:
1. Prior to defer a maintenance task, the engineer must ensure that the defect can be
deferred as per approved data, this is MEL, CDL, NSRDIL or other accepted documents as
AMM, SRM, EO and EA (items generically identified as “items non MEL”).
2. In particular, the engineer must ensure that there is no possible interaction with other(s)
defect(s) for which rectification had already been deferred.
3. If the defect cannot be deferred:
The defect rectification has to be performed,
PPC function must be informed about the delay,
If the maintenance rectification cannot be performed, Engineer declares aircraft
unserviceable (AOG) in accordance with customer procedure.
4. If the defect can be deferred:
PIC/Engineer in-charge shall contact PPC function for any discrepancy that could not be
rectified as soon as possible.
Note: in Line Maintenance, escalation of Task Cards from phase check is not considered
a “defect” and, consequently, is not defined as a “deferred maintenance item”. In case
a task card has to be escalated, Engineer record it on “Deferred Job Control Sheet“ (BT-
RRF-009) and report to PPC function who is in charge to inform to customer and open
a new item to control the new limit for such task Card based in the tolerances
established in the customer MP (10%, etc).

ROBBING PROCEDURE
GENERAL
An airworthy part that has been removed from an aircraft for immediate installation
(parts robbing) is the removal of part/component, engine from the donor
aircraft/engine or next higher assembly to be installed on to recipient aircraft as no
other alternative available to dispatch the aircraft on time.
The Part Robbing or cross change of part/component and engine may only be
performed if spare not available for dispatching the aircraft to maintain flight schedule
and shall not practices on the aircraft being letter check.
Note: however, aircraft in hangar letter check is can only be processed with approval
granted by Customer’s Technical Representative.
Part robbing component tracking is the procedure to record and certify the component
that is removed from the aircraft prior to being reinstalled on the recipient aircraft due
to spare is not available. This condition is applied to confirm that the component is in
serviceable condition and have adequate time remaining for operation until the next
scheduled Maintenance Check.
Record removed the part/component from aircraft or Next Higher Assembly in the
robbing part form, entries on both Aircraft Maintenance Logbook of donor and recipient
aircraft.
PROCEDURE
1. PPC function Line Maintenance or Base Maintenance will coordinate with customer
before making decision to robbing part from an aircraft.
2. Work Order will be issued if component removal (robbing) is approved.
3. Before release to service a part removed from aircraft, the engineer with customer
check these following conditions:
The last flight operation with the component fitted revealed no faults on that
component/related system.
Evaluates traceability part and history of part/component using the Aircraft
Maintenance Logbook to ensure that there is no similar problems have been
experienced on the donor aircraft. The aircraft records are researched for any
unusual events that could affect the serviceability of the aircraft component such
as involvement in accidents, incidents, heavy landings or lightning strikes.
The aircraft component is inspected for satisfactory condition, such as physical
condition of the components/part for leakage, missing parts, cracks, etc. and
compliance with any additional manufacturer’s maintenance instructions.

Cockpit Communication”. Visual signals with the Push back car operator and or other
members of the engineer or with the flight crew if necessary.
PROCEDURE
PRIOR TO COMMEND OF PUSHBACK
1. Engineer or mechanic shall ensure that the following actions are sequentially
performed.
2. Nose wheel steering system is in BY-PASS position or steering lockout pin
inserted.
3. Torque link connected or disconnected is optional to the radius of turn. Refer to
AMM Chapter 09.
4. Tow-bar is properly connected to nose gear tow lug and tractor in the same
alignment. Ensure the tow bar is manually connected to the nose gear tow lug
as possible to avoid damaging the nose gear strut.
CAUTION:
The steering lockout pin shall be inserted prior to connect the tow bar.
5. Tractor engine shall be started before the aircraft engine start up.
6. Area around the aircraft is free from obstacles. Wing-man shall be required only
when pushback of an aircraft is commenced at a Critical Area.
7. Interphone communication is established, use hand/visual signal other than
interphone communication if there is heavy rain or a possibility of thunderstorm
refer to AMPM 4.10 Ground Cockpit Communication
DURING PUSH-BACK
1. Pushback speed during the whole operation shall not exceed 5 (five) km/hrs.
Engineer or mechanic shall communicate with flight crew by interphone or
visual signal and tractor driver/helper by visual signals and or verbal
instruction refer to AMPM 4.10 Ground Cockpit Communication
2. Certifying/Engineer and tractor driver shall ensure that the center line of an
aircraft fuselage (not only nose wheels) is aligned with the guideline.
3. Complete the check of the surrounding area, the Engineer or mechanic shall
give all clear signals to the flight crew. The engineer or mechanic ensures
that the fire extinguisher is always available at stand during engine starting.
PROCEDURE DURING PUSH BACK TO MINIMIZE RTA WHEN THERE IS FUEL
LEAK DURING ENGINE STARTING (FOR CFM56-7B ENGINE)
1. During engine starting, fuel leak may come out from engine drain port and
can make aircraft RTA for checking
2. To prevent delay due to RTA, some procedure must follow in accordance
with AMM and other reference.
3. Normal Engine start procedure for fuel leak
4. Normal engine start procedure for fuel leak (with hand signal)
NOTE:
When it proves unsuccessful to establish Ground/Flight deck interphone
communication, the alternate pushback procedure shall be
carried out by means of the visual signals refer to AMPM 4.10 Ground Cockpit
Communication
PURPOSE
This procedure describes highlights and precautions for aircraft towing and applicable
for movement of aircraft from a parking spot to the other parking spot for any purpose
by means of tractor power with correct and safe procedure.
PROCEDURE
ENGINEER/ MECHANIC RESPONSIBILITY
He is responsible to:
1. Establish and maintain communication with the flight deck operator and others
person (tower or ground control) in according with local airport regulations.
2. Ensure the anti-collision lights are in “ON” during aircraft towing.
3. Ensure that the nose gear steering lock out pin is installed before the tow-bar is
connected and removed after the towing is completed.
4. Termination of communication only when receiving the confirmation from flight
deck operator that aircraft parking brakes are applied or wheel chock in position.
THE FLIGHT DECK OPERATOR, THE TRACTOR DRIVER AND THE GROUND
ENGINEER / MECHANIC
They are jointly responsible to ensure:
1. Parking brake release/set arrangement to the aircraft.
2. The current instructions on towing and related regulations issued by the
local airport authority are adhered to.
3. Maintain safe clearance to other aircraft, ground equipment and any other
obstacles.
4. The aircraft and tractor are not exposed to excessive braking forces.
CAUTION:
A special attention shall be paid to minimum safety distance to aircraft with
operating engines or APU, as specified in AMM Chapter 9.
CAUTION:
Tractor may reverse after pushback, but only to center nose wheel,
reversing of tractor is also allowed when towing into/out of hangars.
BRAKING
Due to the unfavorable relation between aircraft and tractor weights (aircraft
can be more than 10 times heavier than the tow tractor), there is and
advantage of braking the aircraft rather than the tractor. It will result in
considerable reduction of stopping distance and elimination of risk that the
tractor will push the aircraft in to an uncontrollable turn (jack-knifing).
1. Braking procedure
When the flight deck operator is ordered to apply aircraft brakes, the
following procedures shall be followed during forward towing.
a. The engineer/mechanic orders the flight deck operator through and
interphone system to apply aircraft brakes.
b. The flight deck operator shall apply aircraft brakes smoothly and
confirm action taken to the ground engineer/mechanic by
communication system.
c. If towing has to continue at this speed, engineer shall order the flight
deck operator communication system, to discontinue braking.
CAUTION:
Always adjust the speed to prevailing conditions. Slow down prior to
turning. Do not brake tractor while turning, on a down-slope or on
a slippery surface, order aircraft braking instead.
2. Emergency Braking
COMMUNICATION FAILURE
In case of communication failure, the tractor driver shall order aircraft braking
by sounding the tractor horn (repeated short signals), and the flight deck
operator shall order tractor braking sounding the engineer call horn and/or
flashing the nose gear light. Towing speed shall not exceed 5 (five) km/hr.
Wing-man may be required in the Critical Area to ensure the safe clearance
between Wingtips or Vertical stabilizer and obstructions.
CAUTION:
During towing never exceed maximum speed and nose gear steering angle
as specified in AMM Chapter 9.
NOTE :
Special attention and procedure must be follow when tow the aircraft
without electrical power, battery or no communication established. Apron
Movement Control (AMC) assistance may be needed for make sure towing
operation are safe.
