What is DASR 145?

• A. DASR 145- Requirements for Maintenance Organisations
• B. DASR 145- Licensing
• C. DASR 145- Flight Operations
• D. DASR 145- Aircraft Certification

Answer: (A)

DASR 145 defines the requirements for maintenance organizations to operate under the airworthiness system. It covers what an organization must have in place to be approved by the regulator to perform maintenance on aircraft and components, and to continue that work while preserving airworthiness. This includes the organizational structure, facilities and equipment, qualified personnel, approved procedures, a documented quality/continuous improvement system, training and records, and controls for subcontracting. Regulators audit and surveil to ensure ongoing compliance. This is different from licensing (which relates to issuing individual or organizational licenses in other contexts), flight operations (which covers how flights are planned and conducted), or aircraft certification (which concerns certifying the aircraft itself as airworthy).
