Repair station operations
The following information is from the Federal Aviation
Administration AC 145-9.

QUESTION:

What is a maintenance function?

ANSWER:

According to FAA Advisory Circular 145-9 Change 1,
a maintenance function is "a step or series of steps in the
process of performing maintenance, preventative maintenance or alterations, which may result in approving an
article for return to service."
When seeking FAA approval from maintenance
functions to be contracted in compliance with 14 CFR
145.217, there are two criteria that must be met in order
to be considered contract maintenance. First, the regulations allow a repair station to contract any maintenance,
preventive maintenance or alteration for which it holds a

ANSWER:

Yes, ADS-B Out systems that have previously
received FAA approval and meet all of the criteria
listed in the memorandum may be installed and
returned to service on other aircraft without
further data approval.
Among the criteria listed in the memorandum,
the installer must have documentation from the
STC holder that indicates the owner/operator of
the aircraft has permission to use the STC data
for the alteration.

rating. This means that the repair station must first hold
the authority to do the work. If not, it is not contract maintenance. Second, you must be "exercising the privileges of
its (your) certificate."
AC 145-9 contains an important note on page 33:
Purchase of maintained parts from another
repair station (including exchanges), brokerage and using another certificated repair
station to perform work that is outside the
original repair station's ratings are not maintenance functions requiring FAA approval.
These are instances where the purchasing
repair station is not exercising the privileges
of its certificate.
When a repair station requests work or sells a
previously maintained article (including type
certificate products), it is acting solely as a
distributor. Although the purchasing repair
station may induct the part through its receiving inspection process, it is merely relying
on the work previously performed at another
certificated entity and is not exercising the
privileges under 145.201(a)(2).
