What are Instructions for Continued Airworthiness?

What do you think Instructions for Continued Airworthiness are?

MARPA is participating as a member of the Instructions for Continued Airworthiness (ICA) Aviation Rulemaking Committee (ARC). The ARC’s next task is to produce a short statement identifying what ICA are. There are many pages of the regulations and still more pages of FAA guidance material answering this question, but we have been asked to boil this “definition” down to 3-4 sentences.

We’d love to hear your opinions on what a short definition of ICA would look like. In the alternative, we’d love to hear you thoughts on what concepts you think should be included (or excluded) from such a short definition.

Please provide us with your thoughts, either by adding to the WordPress comments or by direct email, by August 23, 2024.
