CASS Tab

The section was originally created to allow information on squawks, MEL’s, part replacement, etc. The data is entered and then reported to the FAA for operator bound by the requirements of the Continuing Analysis and Surveillance System. This may also be by any operator to track part life, MELs, squawks, service bulletins, and create work orders.

Items may be submitted from FOS Mobile to this section which generates an e-mail alert to the maintenance technician for the aircraft.
