What do the organisation have to prove to the CAA?
That they are following the requirements of part M
What does every organisation need to follow part M?
CAMO
Who is responsible for aircraft continuing airworthiness?
The operator is always responsible unless clearly stated in a contract when aircraft are leased to a third party
What does the operator have to do with a maintenance program?
The operator must create and gain approval for this aircraft maintenance programme to be used for each aircraft
What is involved in the maintenance program?
This document details which maintenance actions must be carried out at which intervals during the life of the aircraft in order to keep it in an airworthy condition
What should the maintenance programme be based off?
The maintenance review board report(MRBR)
What do a organisation have to do for a newly type certificated aircraft?
Should follow manufacturers recommendations and Maintenance Review Board Report together with other airworthiness information

Structure Significant Items (SSI) were entered into the structure maintenance programme. Part of this category is those items which contribute significantly to loads applied during flight, ground loads, pressurisation, and where a failure threatens the structural integrity and the safety of the aircraft.
How is a part selected for structure significant items (SSI)
The consequences of failures in critical locations, the failure probability
