Review Location, Parts, Tools, and Flight Schedule
Explanation
Use this activity to review location capability, parts and tools capacity, and the aircraft flight schedule
before you schedule or reschedule a LINE work package. These three reviews appear in both:
- 7.46.4.1 Schedule Work Package — for a scheduled or unscheduled work package, using
the flight schedule and facility capability
- 7.46.5.1 Schedule Aircraft at a Hangar Location — when the LINE work package must be
scheduled at an intermediary hangar location
They are subprocesses of 7.46 Line Maintenance Planning. See Line
Maintenance Planning.
On 7.46.4.1 Schedule Work Package, after the three reviews, decide:
- Whether the flight schedule matches the maintenance window
- Whether the facility is capable of executing the work package
If both are yes, schedule the work package. See Schedule Work
Package. If either is no, update the work package and review again. See Reschedule Work Package.
When hangar maintenance is required, for example because of skill shortages or time allocation mismatches,
complete the same reviews, then reschedule the LIne Work Package package to a hangar location. See Reschedule Work Package.
This activity is a review. It does not change the work package schedule.
Prerequisites
Procedure
Open the work package from the Open Work Packages page or the Work Package
Details page.
Review location capability
- On the Work Package Details page, open the Schedule Work Package - Internal
assistant.
- Review Scheduled Location.
- Turn on Only Show Capable Locations to list only locations that can handle the work
package.
- Confirm that the location type matches the work. Maintenance location types include Line, Track, and Hangar.
If hangar maintenance is required, confirm that a hangar location is available.
- If required, open the Aircraft in Maintenance page to see which aircraft are currently in
maintenance when you judge location availability.
- Select Cancel if you are only reviewing. Do not select OK unless you are
scheduling or rescheduling. See Schedule Work Package and
Reschedule Work Package.
Review parts and tools capacity
- On the Work Package Details page, open the Parts tab. The tab displays
required parts for tasks. See About Hangar Maintenance Work Packaging.
- Open the Tools tab. The tab lists tools needed for tasks.
- If required, open the Aviation Tool Search page in CAMO to search whether the required tools
or parts exist before you confirm the scheduled location.
- Check whether the required parts and tools can be fulfilled at the scheduled location in the planned window.
After the work package is defined and scheduled, request the parts before you commit. The system automatically
requests the required parts. Any part request that cannot be fulfilled with current stock is requested from
material management personnel. See Line Maintenance Planning and Auto Reservation of Tools / KITs / Parts.
Assigning unassigned parts is a later step after the work package is scheduled. It is not part of this
review.
Note: The My Part Requests page and the Tool Equipment
Checkout page are Line Maintenance Execution pages. Use them after the work package is published to a
turn, when you request material or check out tools for a task. They are not used for this CAMO planning review. See
Add Part Requirement and Check Out Tools or Equipment.
Review aircraft flight schedule
- Open the Flights page for the aircraft.
- Compare the scheduled arrival and departure with the work package Scheduled Start and
Scheduled End on Schedule Work Package - Internal or Work Package
Details.
- Decide whether the flight schedule matches the maintenance window, and whether the window still aligns with
the aircraft turn where execution will happen. See Schedule Work
Package.
- If an inbound flight is later so that scheduled arrival is after the work package scheduled start, or an
outbound flight is earlier so that scheduled departure is before the work package scheduled start, Line
Maintenance Execution can keep showing the work package on the original turn until the Line Planner reschedules
the work package in CAMO and publishes.
This procedure does not create or edit flights. To add or update flights, see Add/Update Flights.
If the flight schedule does not match the maintenance window, or the facility is not capable of executing the
work package, update the schedule and review again. See Reschedule Work
Package. If both match, schedule the work package. See Schedule Work
Package.
System Effects
- None. Reviewing location capability, parts and tools, or the flight schedule does not change the work
package.
- To set or change the scheduled location and time window, see Schedule Work Package and Reschedule Work Package.
