Rationale: This document has been written to provide a process to achieve Maintenance Credits using Aerospace Propulsion Health Management Systems in a consistent way. This will help Regulators carry out assessments of the merits of a Maintenance Credit application with a view to provide approval. This document reflects the fact that regulatory approval has been provided to multiple engine and aircraft Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs), allowing the use of Propulsion Health Management functionality in the mitigation of Airworthiness Directives, extending inspection intervals, compliance with Maintenance Steering Group-3 (MSG-3) and more effective utilization of component lives to increase ‘time on wing’.
