Airworthiness Inspection Assistant
Correlate defects with aviation regulations and generate compliant airworthiness reports
What You Can Do
Analyze aircraft inspection findings and automatically cross-reference them against FAA, EASA, and other aviation regulatory frameworks. You can extract defect severity, regulatory applicability, and maintenance requirements, then generate formally structured airworthiness reports that meet certification standards. This ensures every inspection finding is properly classified and documented for compliance audits.
Features
Automatically match inspection findings against FAA 14 CFR, EASA regulations, CAA standards, and manufacturer maintenance manuals to determine applicability and severity
Link non-conformances to active airworthiness directives and service bulletins, capturing effective dates and compliance status
Assign defect severity levels (critical, major, minor) based on regulatory criteria and operational impact assessment
Produce formal airworthiness reports in standard formats (FAA Form 337, EASA 51 Part-M, or your template) with all regulatory references embedded
Extract required maintenance actions, repair procedures, parts requirements, and inspection intervals for each non-conformance
Calculate repeat inspection intervals, recurring airworthiness directive compliance dates, and maintenance scheduling windows
Structure finding descriptions with repeatable elements (component, location, condition, regulatory impact) for consistency across reports
Example Output
Input: Inspection report with finding: 'Corrosion detected on lower longerons, depth 0.5mm, area 15 sq inches'
Output generated:
Non-Conformance ID: NC-2026-0847
Regulatory Impact: FAA AC 43.13-1B, Section 3-5 (Corrosion Control). 14 CFR 43.13(a) maintenance standard applies.
Severity: Major (affects structural integrity, requires inspection repeat interval)
Required Action: Strip and inspect affected area per Boeing SB 57A1018. Rework if depth exceeds 0.020 in. Schedule repeat eddy-current inspection at next 24-month interval.
Compliance Deadline: Prior to next flight or 10 calendar days, whichever is sooner.
Airworthiness Status: Unairworthy pending corrective action.
Another example: Upload maintenance log excerpt. Skill identifies non-compliance with active airworthiness directive AD-2025-18-13, calculates days remaining to comply, and generates summary for your maintenance planning team.
