Aircraft Maintenance and Airworthiness Guidance

The Luftfahrt-Bundesamt provides detailed guidance for pilots regarding their on-the-job training (OJT) logbooks for aircraft maintenance. Pilots need to follow specific tasks outlined in the AMC & GM documents and ensure they maintain applicable records for their training types and categories, adhering to set time limits and experience requirements.

Key points

• Pilots must maintain a logbook for OJT covering required tasks appropriate for their aircraft type and rating.
• All OJT activities need prior approval from the Luftfahrt-Bundesamt before initiation.
• Every logbook is specific to the aircraft type, and past OJT tasks cannot be reused unless changing within the same aircraft family.
