ADs are managed the same way as other Maintenance Requirements ( M.Requirements)

It is highly recommended to include a MR in your Maintenance Programmes to review the respective CAA web sites for new ADs. This review is usually performed every 2 weeks and can be certified by the department having authority for AD assessment.

Like for the other MR categories, AD can be received, assessed and scheduled by creating a new and directly effective MR ( P: recording a new MR) or by using the MR amendment functionality to segregate the AD initial assessment and use a different authority to approve this assessment  (P: amending a Maintenance Programme)
