Doc tasks and additional validations for Future Dated Eng. Docs Reference: AHBG- 19939 Background A provision to update the task effectivity definition in Maintenance Task on release of engineering documents while retaining the status quo of the effectivity list of maintenance objects. Change Details Now, on release of engineering documents, the system checks for the task effectivity of the maintenance objects and then updates the effectivity list of the task with the maintenance objects in Maintenance Task in the following way: • If tasks with aircraft/ model/ part effectivity from Maintenance Task have been included in the engineering document, the system adds the aircraft/ models/ parts for which effectivity has been enabled in the engineering document to the task effectivity. ( Note: Effectivity is enabled, if Applicable? is set as ‘ Yes’ for the maintenance object in the Effectivity tab.) • If new tasks ( not yet defined in Maintenance Task) or existing tasks with no effectivity definition are added in the engineering document, the effectivity of such tasks is not updated with the aircraft/ models/ parts for which effectivity has been set as ‘ Yes’ in the engineering document. • If tasks are added in an engineering document with Applicable? set as ' No' / ' Hold' / ' Previously Complied' for aircraft/ models/ parts, these aircraft/ models/ parts are removed from the task effectivity definition in Maintenance Task, if Applicable? is not set as ‘ Yes’ for the same maintenance objects in any other document. Next, update of task effectivity in Maintenance Task upon addition/ modification of effectivity in engineering document in Edit mode will happen on the basis of the process parameters defined under the entity type Eng. Doc. Type and the entity All Eng. Doc. Types in the Define Process Entities activity of Common Master. The influence of the process parameters on the update of task effectivity in Maintenance Task upon editing of engineering document’s effectivity details as illustrated in the below table. 13 | Enhancement Notification Ramco Aviation Solution Process Parameter Value Impact Engineering Document Revision Policy As per Revision Rules • If tasks with aircraft/ model/ part effectivity from Maintenance Task have been included in the engineering document, the system adds the aircraft/ models/ parts for which effectivity has been enabled in the engineering document to the task effectivity. ( Note: Effectivity is enabled, if Applicable? is set as ‘ Yes’ for the maintenance object in the Effectivity tab.) • If new tasks ( not yet defined in Maintenance Task) or existing tasks with no effectivity definition are added in the engineering document, the effectivity of such tasks is not updated with the aircraft/ models/ parts for which effectivity has been set as ‘ Yes’ in the engineering document. • If tasks are added in an engineering document with Applicable? set as ' No' / ' Hold' / ' Previously Complied' for aircraft/ models/ parts, these aircraft/ models/ parts are removed from the task effectivity definition in Maintenance Task, if Applicable? is not set as ‘ Yes’ for the same maintenance objects in any other document. Mandate Revision on Addition of Effectivity? 0 Engineering Document Revision Policy As per Revision Rules • The system updates the aircraft/ models/ parts for which task effectivity has been modified to ‘ Yes’ in the engineering document to the task effectivity definition in Maintenance Task, if effectivity definition for the task already exists in Maintenance Task. ( Note: Effectivity is Mandate Revision on Modification of Effectivity? 0 14 | Enhancement Notification Ramco Aviation Solution enabled, if Applicable? is set as ‘ Yes’ for the maintenance object in the Effectivity tab.) • If effectivity of new tasks ( not yet defined in Maintenance Task) or existing tasks with no effectivity are modified to ‘ Yes’ in the engineering document, the task effectivity in Maintenance Task is not updated with the aircraft/ models/ parts. • If Applicable? for aircraft/ models/ parts is changed to “ No' / ' Hold' / ' Previously Complied' in the engineering document, the aircraft/ models/ parts are removed from the task effectivity definition in Maintenance Task, if for the task, Applicable? is not set as ‘ Yes’ for the same maintenance objects in any other engineering document. Additionally, restriction on the modification of threshold for future- dated engineering documents by users has been imposed, since the system does not consider these values for computation of NSD/ NSV on reaching the effectivity date, if they have been user- specified. 15 | Enhancement Notification Ramco Aviation Solution Ability to calculate Next Schedule Date/ Value only if Threshold is provided Reference: AHBG- 20108 Background Presently, NSD/ NSV for tasks is computed on the basis of Threshold and/ or Repeat Interval in the Ramco Aviation system. If only Threshold for a task is available, it is deemed to be a one- time task and if Repeat Interval is provided, the task is considered as a repetitive task. However, in some Aircraft Maintenance scenarios, repetitive tasks may require Threshold in date terms and Repeat Interval in parameter value or vice versa. For such tasks, a provision is required to define a combination of date- based and usage- based schedules with mutually exclusive Threshold with Repeat interval. Change Details In order to enable the users to define schedules for repetitive tasks with distinct first- time compliance ( Threshold) and thereafter subsequent compliances ( Repeat Interval), new process parameter ‘ Calculate Next Schedule Date/ Value only if Threshold is available’ has been added under the entity type Eng. Doc. Type and entity All Eng. Doc. in the Define Process Entities activity of Common Master. Parameter Value Impact on NSD / NSV computation in Eng. Doc. Calculate Next Schedule Date/ Value only if Threshold is available 1 • The system will allow release of engineering document even if NSD/ NSV is specified for at least one schedule. • Computes NSD/ NSV for tasks only if Threshold is provided by users in the engineering document. • Does not consider Repeat Interval even if available for the task. • Note: Threshold should be recorded for at least one schedule of the task. 0 • The system will allow release of engineering document only if NSD/ NSV is specified for all schedules. • Computes NSD / NSV for tasks based on Threshold or Repeat Interval available in the engineering document. Example Scenario: A maintenance task is initially due at 3000 Flight Hours and after first- time compliance; thereafter the task becomes due every 24 months. 16 | Enhancement Notification Ramco Aviation Solution WHAT’S NEW IN AIRCRAFT & COMPONENT MAINTENANCE PROGRAM? Next Due Date Calculation to consider the Station’s Date when “ End of Day” option is set Reference: AHBG- 20273 Background Generally, for calendar- based tasks complied on components and aircraft, NSD is computed based on the LPD as per the UTC time zone, if Next Due Computation Logic is set as End of Day in the Component Maintenance Program, Aircraft Maintenance Program and IMPUC screens. However, in situations when a task is executed late night or early morning, the UTC time zone based LPD may not be the actual last performed date owing to the time lag between the UTC and the station. As a result, NSD computed on the basis of the UTC last performed date may lead to a variance of a day in the NSD of tasks. In order to compute precise NSD, the actual last performed date needs to be derived based on the time zone of the station. Change Details This enhancement introduces new process parameter “ Compute Next Due based on execution station's time zone when Next Due computation logic is ' End of Day'” under the under the entity type " Maint. Program and Forecasting Options" and the entity " Next Due computation logic" in the Define Process Entities activity of Common Master to decide the basis of computation of NSD for date- based schedule tasks complied in Aircraft Maintenance Execution and Shop Work Order. However, this process parameter works in conjunction with another process parameter ” Next Due computation logic” defined under the same entity type and entity as the new process parameter. Compute Next Due based on execution station's time zone when Next Due computation logic is ' End of Day’ Next Due computation logic NSD computation method 1/ Yes 0/ End of Day LPD as per the time zone of Execution Station + Interval Days 0/ No NA LPD as per the time zone of UTC + Interval Days 17 | Enhancement Notification Ramco Aviation Solution Illustration: Schedule for Task in AMP Task Interval LPD ( Local Station Time) LPD ( in UTC) NSD Task- XXX- 01 10 11- Aug- 2017 23: 00 The above task was executed in the Perth station which is 1.5 hours behind the UTC time zone ( Adelaide) on 10- Aug- 17 11: 00 PM. Now when the task is performed in Shop or AME, NSD for the task will be derived as follows, if the new process parameter is set as 1/ Yes. Task Interval LPD ( Local Station Time) LPD ( in UTC) NSD Task- XXX- 01 10 10- Aug- 2017 23: 00 11- Aug- 2017 00: 30 20- Aug- 2017 23: 59: 59 While updating / computing NSD/ NSV from IMPUC screen, system will consider UTC Date & Time always. Similarly while correcting the compliance in Track Maintenance Compliance History screen system will consider only the UTC Date & Time irrespective of the option set.

Avg Util. Computation based on Calendar days Reference: AHBG- 20270 Background Currently, in Ramco Aviation, the average utilization value of the parameters for aircraft and components is computed on the basis of flight days. However, an option to compute the average utilization based on calendar days must also be incorporated in the system. Change Details New process parameter ‘ Average Utilization Computation basis.’ added under the entity type " Maint. Program and Forecasting Options" and the entity " Avg. util. Comptn. Schr" in the Define Process Entities activity of Common Master will now decide the logic to be adopted for the computation of average utilization. The effect of the new process parameter on the average utilization computation is illustrated in the following table. 19 | Enhancement Notification Ramco Aviation Solution Process parameter value Impact on average utilization computation 1/ Calendar Days The total parameter value for the duration specified for the process parameter ‘ Range in Months to be considered for Average Utilization Computation scheduler’ will be divided by the number of Calendar days occurring in the same duration. Example: If the duration specified for process parameter is 3 months ( 92 days) and the number of flight days is 70 days in the last 3 months, the average utilization value for FH will be: Total FH for last 3 months/ 92 0/ Flight Days The total parameter value for the duration specified for the process parameter ‘ Range in Months to be considered for Average Utilization Computation scheduler’ will be divided by the number of Flight days occurring in the same duration. Example: If the duration specified for the process parameter is 3 months ( 92 days) and number of flight days is 70 days for the last 3 months, the average utilization value for FH will be: Total FH for last 3 months/ 70 20 | Enhancement Notification Ramco Aviation Solution WHAT’S NEW IN COMPONENT MAINTENANCE PROGRAM? Position Based Schedule Reference: AHBG- 20272 Background Presently, the system overwrites maintenance program schedules of attached components on inheritance of the Active position based schedules. However, a provision to retain NSD/ NSV of the attached components in the absence of LPD/ LPV during inheritance, if manually specified was found necessary since users would have specified these values for a specific business purpose. Change Details In order to be able to retain user- specified NSD/ NSV of attached components during inheritance of the position based schedules based on user preference, new process parameter ‘ Retain manually corrected Next Due Date & Value for the component task when the position based schedule is inherited if LPD & LPV is not available' has been added in the Define Process Entities activity of Common Master. This process parameter defined under the entity type “ Next Due Computation Logic” and entity " Maint. Program and Forecasting Options" will decide whether user- specified NSD/ NSV will be retained during inheritance of position based schedules as illustrated in the below table. Process parameter value Impact on inheritance of position based schedules by attached components 1 NSD / NSV, if manually specified by users in the maintenance program of the attached components are retained in the absence of LPD and LPV 0 The position based schedules overwrite the maintenance program schedules of attached components 21 | Enhancement Notification Ramco Aviation Solution WHAT’S NEW IN AIRCRAFT MAINTENANCE PLANNING? Enhancements in Daily Planning Report Reference: AHBG- 19228 Background The Daily Planning report retrieves the packages with planned start and end dates falling in the period specified by the users. However, in some situations, users may want to view only those packages that have already been released for execution. Hence, a provision to retrieve packages based on user preference for status must be provided in the report. Change Details Till now, packages in all statuses except Cancelled and Closed were retrieved in the report. Now, the new process parameter ‘ Display only released Packages?’ under the entity type " Reports" and the entity " Daily Planning Report" in the Define Process Entities activity of Common Master will decide whether only packages released for execution will be retrieved in the Daily Planning report. The following table elaborates on the functionality of the new process parameter. Process parameter value Impact in Daily Planning Report 1/ Yes Packages in the status ' Planned', ' In- Progress' and ' Completed' will be retrieved in the report. 0/ No Packages in the status ' Fresh', ' Planned', ' In- Progress' and ' Completed' will be retrieved in the report. 22 | Enhancement Notification Ramco Aviation Solution WHAT’S NEW IN COMPLIANCE TRACKING & CONTROL? Ability to Upload Discrepancies with Cabin Additional Attributes Reference: AHBG- 20406 Background Presently, the cabin attributes and cabin equipment category are not recorded against discrepancies. However, uploading/ maintaining of these details has now become inevitable since discrepancies uploaded from LineAnywhere and other third party applications carry these details which have to saved/ maintained/ viewed in the Ramco Aviation system. Change Details New input fields representing cabin attributes and equipment category have been added for uploaded discrepancies in the Discrepancy Details multiline of Maintain Discrepancy Information screen of Compliance Tracking & Control. The new input fields include: • Defect Type • Affected Function • Confirmed? • Safety Related? • Pax. Abuse? • Cabin Position # • No. of Channels • Equipment Category • Reported Station • Closed Station 23 | Enhancement Notification Ramco Aviation Solution Exhibit 1: The Maintain Discrepancy Information screen in Compliance Tracking & Control New fields to be viewed/ maintained against uploaded discrepancies 24 | Enhancement Notification Ramco Aviation Solution Ability to View/ Modify Cabin Additional Attributes for Discrepancies Reference: AHBG- 20198 Background Presently, the cabin attributes and cabin equipment category are not recorded against discrepancies. However, view/ maintaining of these details has now become inevitable since discrepancies uploaded from LineAnywhere and other third party applications carry these details which have to viewed/ maintained in the Ramco Aviation system. Change Details New input fields representing cabin attributes and equipment category have been added to enable viewing/ maintaining during creating/ updating discrepancies in the Discrepancy Details multiline of Maintain Discrepancy Information screen of Compliance Tracking & Control. The new input fields include: • Defect Type • Affected Function • Confirmed? • Safety Related? • Pax. Abuse? • Cabin Position # • No. of Channels • Equipment Category • Reported Station • Closed Station However, the availability of the above details will be controlled by two process parameters - “ Display ' Equipment Category' in Maintain Discrepancy Information?” and “ Display Cabin Defect Attributes in Maintain Discrepancy Information?" under the entity type ' Discrepancy Management' and the entity ' Discrepancy' in the Define Process Entities activity of Common Master as illustrated in the table next. 25 | Enhancement Notification Ramco Aviation Solution Display ' Equipment Category: value Display Cabin Defect Attributes in Maintain Discrepancy Information: value Fields available Fields not available 1 1 Equipment Category Defect Type Affected Function Safety Related?

Ability to print Discrepancies in new template Reference: APLI- 291 Background As part of package printing, the routine tasks and discrepancies are printed in same format. There is a need to print discrepancies in a new format, with more discrepancy related information. This new feature differentiates discrepancies from routine tasks and facilitates to optionally configure a different template to print discrepancies in a given package. Change Details Discrepancies are printed in new format with the following info: • Originating work order, station and date • Blocks to record part removal & installation, sign- off and other needed info • Corrective actions history 28 | Enhancement Notification Ramco Aviation Solution Exhibit 1: Printing discrepancies in new template Block to record parts removal & installation Block to record sign- off info Originating Package Info 29 | Enhancement Notification Ramco Aviation Solution Exhibit 2: Printing Corrective Action History Corrective actions history 30 | Enhancement Notification Ramco Aviation Solution WHAT’S NEW IN AME HUB? Ability to Default the Search Toggle in AME Hub if no clock is currently running for the Package Reference: AHBG- 20305 Background The Work Reporting hub provides three modes for retrieval of tasks/ discrepancies: Status, Exception and Search. However, a provision to activate the Search Mode in the Work Reporting Hub screen automatically on selection of a package would cater to aircraft maintenance engineers/ mechanics who commonly retrieve / work / process tasks/ discrepancies depending on specific criteria. Change Details To facilitate the activation of the Search mode in the Work Reporting Hub screen automatically upon the selection of the package by the user, new process parameter ‘ Show Search Mode by default on launch of the Work Reporting Hub?’ under the entity type ' Package Type' and the entity ' Log Card' and ‘ All User- Defined Package Types’ has been added in the Define Process Entities activity of Common Master. If the retrieved package is of the type Log Card or any other package type for which the said process parameter is defined as 1 or 2, the Search mode in the Work Reporting Hub screen gets defaulted as explained here. Process Parameter value Impact upon selection of a package and click of the Go pushbutton in the Work Reporting hub 2 The Search mode appears automatically at all times 1 The Search mode appears only if currently no clock is running for any of the tasks/ discrepancies in the package. 31 | Enhancement Notification Ramco Aviation Solution Exhibit 1: The Work Reporting Hub screen The Search mode opens on click of the Go pushbutton based on new process parameter. 32 | Enhancement Notification Ramco Aviation Solution WHAT’S NEW IN LineAnywhere? Ability to view and correct successful & failed uploads to desktop from offline device Reference: AHBG- 19523 Background Presently, the users can upload error- free or force transfer erroneous work packages from LineAnywhere a temporary database of Ramco Aviation. A provision to view, validate and rectify work packages before they are transferred to the relevant database of Ramco Aviation is required so as to ensure data health. Change Details The new screen Manage Transfer Package Log screen under LineAnywhere in the desktop online Ramco Aviation system enables users to view/ process the work packages uploaded from the mobile offline LineAnywhere application. Work packages with errors are force transferred while error- free packages are transferred to Ramco Aviation. The force transferred work packages possess the ‘ Pending’ status and the transferred packages hold the ‘ Processed’ status. This screen provides a varied range of criteria to users based on which the transferred work packages can be retrieved and viewed. The details of work packages including aircraft, flight, transfer and error details are on display in this screen. The users can perform the following actions on the transferred work packages prior to their assimilation into Ramco Aviation database. • View the processed work packages • Validate the pending work packages • Process the validated work packages • Shortclose the pending work packages An intuitive popup screen called Manage Transfer Info provides precise information on the errors in the pending work packages.
