About the role
This interview assesses how you turn maintenance requirements and utilisation forecasts into safe, workable aircraft inputs. The panel wants accurate due-list control, complete work packs, realistic resource planning and clear coordination with engineering, materials and operations when the plan changes.
How to prepare
- Review how approved maintenance programme tasks, airworthiness directives and life-limited items flow into a due list.
- Prepare an example of balancing aircraft availability with maintenance capacity and material constraints.
- Practise explaining how you build, review and revise a maintenance work pack.
- Think through how forecast flying hours and cycles affect input dates and component demand.
- Check the official aviation authority and approved organisational procedures for current maintenance planning requirements.
Common mistakes
- Planning from calendar dates alone without checking forecast hours and cycles.
- Issuing a work pack with missing data, access tasks, parts or inspection dependencies.
- Hiding a resource constraint until the aircraft is already out of service.
- Changing a due value without a traceable source, review and system update.
