1.
This maintenance manual provides necessary for the maintenance of the AQUILA AT01 information to
the maintenance personnel. It contains detailed descriptions of the systems, troubleshooting, and
maintenance practices.
In this handbook are only contained maintenance practices about jobs, which are to be practiced at the
aircraft itself: e.g. removal and installation of components.
Maintenance, repairs and inspections must be accomplished in accordance with the instructions given
in this Maintenance Manual (MM)

The MM has been prepared in accordance with the Air Transport Association (ATA) Specification
Number 100 for Manufacturers Technical Data.
A. Division of Subject Matter
The MM is divided into 5 major sections. Each of these sections is subdivided into chapters. A list
of effective pages and the table of contents are provided at the beginning of each MM chapter.
(1) General Ch. 05 - 12
(2) Airframe Systems Ch. 20 - 37
(3) Structures Ch. 51 - 57
(4) Propeller Ch. 61
(5) Power Plant Ch. 71 - 80
Each chapter is made distinct by a separator sheet with the chapter number and the title.
B. The Page Numbering System
(1) The page numbering system consists three-element numbers separated by dashes.
The first element of the division identify a system:
e.g. 27 Flight Controls (a chapter)
The following element designate a subsystem in the system:
e.g. 27-30 Elevator (a section)
If system consists of several subsystems, further sections are added:
e.g. 27 - 31 Elevator Trim control (a further section)
The last element permits the identification of the individual units in a system or subsystem.
However, this comes only then for carrying if the extent of description requires this.

(2) When the chapter/system element number is followed with zeros in the section/subsystem
and subject/unit element number (28-00-00), the information is applicable to the entire
system.
(3) When the section/subsystem element number is followed with zeros in the subject/unit
element number (28-20-00), the information is applicable to subsystem within the system.
(4) The subject/unit element number is used to identify information applicable to units within
the subsystems.
This breakdown of the chapters provides a good overview and facilitates exchange of revised
pages. Since the most of systems are relatively simple and noncomplex, the third element is
used only at more complicated systems, i.e. if it appears necessary a unit or device to treat in
greater detail.
(5) All maintenance data given in the MM is separated into specific types of information.
That facilitates work with the manual. For this purpose, page number blocks are reserved
depending on type of information.

INTRODUCTION
Introduction
B. Effectivity
This Maintenance Manual is "customized". It includes the following effectivity identification
system to show modification and/or configurational differences.
(1) The MM starts with a List of Effective Chapters. Each chapter is listed with the date of issue
or revision.
(2) To identify the aircraft an effectivity statement (i.e. Garmin Avionics) or a six-digit numeric
indicator is shown in the effectivity column in the table of contents if applicable.
(a) The six-digit numeric indicator begins with the last three digits of the lowest assigned
number, to indicate first effectivity, and ends with the last three digits of the highest
assigned number, to indicate last effectivity, of an unbroken sequence of assigned
numbers. A hyphen is shown between the numbers. Open ended effectivity is
indicated by "999" in the last effectivity if applicable. For example: 023-999 indicates
aircraft 023 and subsequent.
(3) Effectivity Block
The system provides further direct annotation of the applicability on pages. On pages not
applicable for all aircraft at the bottoms left-hand corner a effectivity block appears. The
effectivity identification placed in this block may be a six-digit numeric indicator (Ref. to
(2)(a)) or an effectivity statement. (Refer to Figure 01)
All information appearing on that page applies only to the aircraft noted in the effectivity
block.
Pages with no effectivity block may be followed by pages which have effectivity
blocks and vice versa and bear identical page numbers.
C. Revisions
(1) Maintenance manual revisions, result by different reasons (regulation changes, technical
changes, typographical errors and so on), will be published regularly.
A notification about a revision contains short data to explain the respective revision and
contains:
- revised manual chapters
- reason of revision
- affected airplane serial numbers
(2) In the event of urgently necessary revisions between regular updating, temporary revisions
will be published. The relevant manual pages are yellow and are usually considered during
the next scheduled revision of the maintenance manual.
(3) Identifying Revised Material
(a) Revisions and /or additions will be identified by a vertical black line (revision bar) along
the outside of the page opposite only that portion of the printed matter that was
changed. This also applies to illustrations.

(b) When technical changes cause unchanged text to appear on a different page(s), a
revision bar will be placed in the outside margin, opposite the chapter/section/subject,
page number and date of all affected pages, providing no other revision bar appears on
the page.
(4) Revision Incorporating
(a) To keep track and for ease of use, a revision affects the complete chapter. All pages of a
chapter have the same date the date of issue or revision. Therefore always, if necessary,
the complete chapter is to be removed and inserted.
(a) MM revisions contain an effectivity page. Chapters to be removed or inserted are listed
in sequence and assigned with the respective action.
In the record of revisions, in front of the MM, the accomplished revision is to be
documented as required.
(b) Temporary revisions come as single pages. Incorporate them as noted in the effectivity
page delivered with the revision. With appearance of the corresponding regular
revision of the MM, they lose its effectivity and will be removed.
D. WARNINGS, CAUTIONS, and NOTES
If maintenance operations on the airplane are practiced, general safety and maintenance rules
must be always considered.
In addition, the MM contains adjuncts to the text used to highlight or emphasize important and
critical instructions.
Hazard for maintenance personnel!
Hazard for systems and equipment!
Specific information
E. Abbreviations
Where it appears reasonable, abbreviations are used. They are conforming to a recognized
standard.
