Help on Maintenance Objects

This page allows you to retrieve the details of the maintenance objects such as aircraft models and parts that are already defined. You can carry out a search based on the maintenance object type, maintenance object number, component type, component type, customer part number and manufacturer name. The system displays the maintenance objects that match the filter criteria in the multiline. The system retrieves either the details of the aircraft models or the parts based on the “Maint. Object Type” selected.
