7 This is ensured by issuing certificates of AIRWORTHINESS to an aircraft and subjecting the aircraft to annual AIRWORTHINESS review certificates (ARC). CAR-M specifies certain technical REQUIREMENTS to be complied by organisations and personnel involved in the maintenance of aircraft and aeronautical products, parts and appliances in order to demonstrate the capability and means of discharging the obligations and associated privileges thereof. The CAR-M also specifies conditions of issuing, maintaining, amending, suspending or revoking certificates attesting such compliance. It is imperative that owners/operators and lessors/lessees are aware of their responsibility and accountability of keeping the aircraft in a CONTINUING state of AIRWORTHINESS . This CAR lays down the REQUIREMENTS of CONTINUING AIRWORTHINESS and which are harmonized with EASA Part M regulation.
8 The CAR M is applicable to all operators of Indian registered aircraft irrespective of whether such aircraft are maintained by their own organization or by other approved maintenance organization. For organization operating aircraft, compliance with this CAR is mandatory. The compliance will also depend upon the size of the organization. The applicability will include private operators (General Aviation), flying training institutes state governments etc. CAR-M Revision 0 dated 2nd March 2010 was made effective from 31st July 2010 The CAR M Revision 0 was released after careful consideration of the comments received on the draft and meetings and workshops held with the aeronautical industry on the subject. Rule 133B of the Aircraft Rules 1937 stipulates that organizations engaged in the managing the CONTINUING AIRWORTHINESS of aircraft shall be approved.
9 This CAR provides common technical standards and guidelines for continued AIRWORTHINESS of an aircraft and its components and is issued under the provisions of Rule 133A of the Aircraft Rules 1937. CAR M Issue 2 13 RECORD OF REVISIONS Initial Issue (Revision 0) 31stJuly 2010 This CAR M provides common technical standards and guidelines for continued AIRWORTHINESS of aircraft and its components with an effective date of 31st July 2010. Revision 1 15th February 2015 The Revision-01 to CAR M is being issued to harmonise with regulations of EASA Part M issued after March 2010.

10 The REQUIREMENTS , related AMCs and GMs have been brought together for easy reference purposes. 2. Subsequent to the above arrangement, the Appendices have also been separated as Appendices to CAR M and Appendices to AMCs and GMs . 3. Reference to AME licenses as pre- CAR 66 have been replaced with post CAR -66 terminologies. 4. REQUIREMENTS for Critical Design Configuration Control Limitations (CDCCL) and training guide lines have been introduced. 5. Scope of components maintenance enhanced to include and Indicating Recording System , Water Ballast and Propulsion Augmentation system . 6. The scope of simple defect rectification, which can be accomplished by flight crew, has been enhanced to include. a) Inspection for and removal of de-icing/anti-icing fluid residues. b) Removal/closure of panels, cowls or covers that is easily accessible but not requiring the use of special tools.
