Downloads

  1. Operators of Cayman registered aircraft or their representatives are required to nominate to the Civil Aviation Authority of the Cayman Islands (CAACI) a suitably qualified person who will be approved by the DGCA to act as the Technical Coordinator for the subject aircraft, for the purpose of liaison between the operator, the maintenance organization and the CAACI. The aircraft operator or his representative will be required to nominate the Technical Coordinator during the process of the initial issue of the Certificate of Airworthiness (C of A). This may be reviewed or changed at any renewal of the C of A with the knowledge and acceptance of the CAACI.
  2. The role of the Technical Coordinator is to be the sole focal point to which the CAACI may communicate any airworthiness/operational matters regarding the operator, the aircraft or the approved maintenance organization(s). The Technical Coordinator will be required to facilitate any CAACI inspections, surveys or audits of the aircraft or the maintenance organization. The TC should also be present during the initial issue/renewal of the C of A.
  3. The Technical Coordinator nominated by the aircraft operator or his representative may be the Chief Engineer or Quality Manager of the aircraft's maintenance organization or if preferred the senior pilot (or similarly qualified person) involved with the daily operation of the aircraft. Whoever is proposed is required to be technically knowledgeable about the aircraft type concerned and familiar with the flying program to which the aircraft is committed.
  4. If the Technical Coordinator holds an appropriate Aircraft Maintenance Engineers License on type or an appropriate Approval Issued by the approved Maintenance Organization or the CAACI, then that person may certify for the completion of the Continued Airworthiness Review.
  5. All Technical Coordinators must be approved by the CAACI and issued an authorization. A master register will be maintained.
