This advanced course offers a comprehensive overview of Aircraft Maintenance Planning within an EASA regulatory environment. It is tailored for professionals seeking to expand their expertise beyond routine scheduling tasks.

Key focus areas include reliability-driven planning, aging aircraft considerations, and the integration of human factors into the maintenance process. The course also addresses the development of bridging checks, low utilisation programs, and helicopter-specific planning requirements.

Additional modules explore field-loadable software, modifications and repair status, as well as the management of engine and component condition while off-wing. Effective work package control and planning's role in weight and balance oversight are also covered.

By the end of the course, participants will be better equipped to manage complex maintenance planning challenges, support continuous airworthiness, and ensure full compliance with EASA regulations while optimising operational efficiency.

This course is designed for professionals involved in aircraft maintenance planning, particularly those in CAMO roles, experienced planners, reliability engineers, and quality assurance staff. It is ideal for individuals managing complex tasks such as bridging checks, aging aircraft, helicopter planning, and off-wing component control.

Participants should have a solid foundation in maintenance planning and seek to deepen their knowledge of EASA regulations, human factors, and modern planning challenges across diverse aircraft types and operational contexts.

By completing this course, delegates will:
• Gain a detailed understanding of EASA requirements relevant to advanced maintenance planning functions.
• Enhance their ability to develop, adapt, and manage effective maintenance programs, including bridging checks and low utilisation strategies.
• Understand how to integrate reliability data, human factors, and aging aircraft considerations into planning decisions.
• Strengthen their competence in managing off-wing components, field-loadable software, and helicopter-specific planning requirements.
• Improve coordination between maintenance planning, production planning, and continuing airworthiness oversight.
• Build the capability to lead planning teams, manage planning-related contracts, and support regulatory compliance across complex maintenance environments.
