Significance and Use4.1 The purpose of this

14、 practice is to provide the minimumrequirements necessary for the establishment of a qualityassurance and production acceptance program for a manufac-turer of light sport aircraft.5. Quality Assurance Program (QAP)5.1 Manufacturers of LSA shall develop a Quality Assur-ance Program (QAP) in accordanc

15、e with the criteria estab-lished within this practice.5.2 Quality Assurance Manual (QAM)Each manufacturershall document their QAP in the form of a Quality AssuranceManual (QAM).5.3 Quality Assurance AdministrationThe manufacturersadministration that is charged with the implementation of theQAP may c

16、onsist of one or more: company employees,company officials, or manufacturers agents or assigns. Theindividual(s) that make up the quality assurance administrationshall be identified within the QAM.5.4 Quality Assurance Record (QAR)A record shall bemaintained of the date of acceptance, the origin, an

17、d thecertifications of materials used in the production of airframecomponents considered by the manufacturer to be critical to thestructural integrity of a LSA (see Note 1).NOTE 1The intent of this record is to provide a means for themanufacturer to identify and reduce the number of LSA within a fle

18、et thatmay be affected by a materials anomaly that would require correctiveaction, thereby reducing the economic impact of such corrective action.This paragraph should not be construed as a requirement for specific partstraceability.5.4.1 Manufacturer shall maintain a Quality AssuranceRecord (QAR) f

19、or each LSA produced. Each QAR shallconsist of the following:5.4.1.1 Applicable final inspection records, check, and testdocumentation from the production acceptance procedures (seeSection 8),5.4.1.2 A copy of the Manufacturers Statement of Compli-ance, and5.4.1.3 The configuration of each aircraft

20、at its point ofdelivery (for continued operational safety monitoring pur-poses), including associated parts lists and installed equipmentlists.NOTE 2Each item listed in 5.4.1 shall include the LSA serial numberand date of manufacture.5.5 Quality Assurance RevisionsA system shall be imple-mented to e

21、nsure that only the latest revisions to the QAM arein use.5.6 Quality Assurance AuditsManufacturer shall conductan annual audit of their QAP. Manufacturer shall maintain arecord of all such audits.Any determination of non-complianceshall be resolved and a revision to the QAM shall be made ifnecessar

22、y to address any anomalies found.6. Engineering and Manufacture6.1 Record of ComplianceThe manufacturer shall keep apermanent record of the design documentation used to showcompliance of a particular configuration to the version of thedesign and performance specification in effect at the time ofmanu

23、facture.6.2 Configuration ControlAll LSA configurations in pro-duction shall have Records of Compliance to the latest releasedrevision of the design and performance specification.6.3 Production DocumentationThe manufacturer shallmaintain a record of all production documentation, includingrevisions.

24、Production documentation may include, but is notlimited to, the following:6.3.1 Parts lists,6.3.2 Process routings,6.3.3 Component and assembly drawings,6.3.4 Manufacturing instructions and specifications,6.3.5 Tooling and gauge drawings,6.3.6 The AOI,6.3.7 The maintenance manual, and6.3.8 The QAM.6

25、.4 Special ProcessesA system shall be implemented tocontrol all special processes and services related to the pro-duction of airframe components considered by the manufac-turer to be critical to the structural integrity of the LSA, suchas welding, brazing, heat treatment, plating, structural compos-

26、ites, adhesive bonding, and so forth, that ensures that eachprocess and service is performed in accordance with approvedspecifications containing definitive standards of quality, andthat periodic inspection of gauges, solutions, or any criticalequipment is controlled and documented.7. Quality Assura

27、nce Inspections7.1 Manufacturers shall implement and document a systemof inspections to verify conformity of product to all applicableengineering requirements and production specifications.7.1.1 Conforming, non-conforming, and items awaiting in-spection must be separated or clearly distinguishable.

28、Itemsfound to be nonconforming shall either be evaluated by aMaterials Review Board (MRB) in accordance with 7.4 orrejected in accordance with 7.5.7.2 Receiving InspectionManufacturer shall implement apurchasing procedure that shall ensure all items ordered areclearly specified. Incoming items provi

29、ded by outside vendorsshall be inspected for conformity to applicable specifications.7.3 Acceptance of Conforming ItemsConforming itemsshall be distributed as required or placed in a secure storagearea for future use.7.4 Evaluation of Non-Conforming Items by a MaterialsReview BoardA Materials Review

30、 Board (MRB) may beestablished to determine the disposition of non-conformingitems, and shall consist of one or more manufacturer desig-nated technical representatives. MRB representatives shall beidentified within the QAM. If analysis, additional inspection,functional checks, repair, rework, and so

31、 forth assures that anitem meets all of the relevant design requirements, the MRBmay authorize its use in the production of a LSA. Otherwise,F2279062the item must be rejected in accordance with 7.5. The manu-facturer shall keep a permanent record showing the dispositionof non-conforming items that h

32、ave been evaluated and ac-cepted by the MRB.7.5 Rejection of Non-Conforming ItemsA process fordisposing of items found to be unusable due to damage, shelflife limits, or other variations must be defined and imple-mented. A rejected item must be mutilated, disposed of, orsufficiently marked as reject

33、ed to ensure that it is not used inthe production of a LSA. A rejected component may be placedin a reserved holding area for future disposition or disposal.8. Production AcceptanceNOTE 3The following criteria should not be construed as require-ments for specific features to be included on a LSA. Whe

34、n a requirementspecifies a feature that does not exist on a LSA, the requirement does notapply.8.1 Final InspectionsManufacturer shall verify andrecord that a shop order for each LSA produced has beencompleted prior to conducting the following Production Ac-ceptance procedures.8.1.1 LSA KitManufactu
