CASA approved aircraft maintenance facilities search

CASA approved aircraft maintenance facilities can be searched by location, approval rating and maintenance capability using the tool below. This page helps aircraft owners, operators, brokers and aviation personnel identify publicly listed Part 145 approved maintenance organisations across Australia.

The search is provided as an aviation planning tool only. It is not a recommendation, endorsement or confirmation that a maintainer is suitable for a specific aircraft, task or operation. Approval scope, location coverage, certifying staff availability, aircraft type capability and release requirements should always be confirmed directly with the maintainer and against the official CASA record.

What this aircraft maintenance search can help with

This tool is designed to make early maintenance planning easier. It can help identify possible options for aircraft recovery, regional operations, AOG planning, ferry planning, maintenance positioning, charter support and continuing airworthiness coordination.

Results are limited to a maximum of four closest matching cached records so the page remains practical and easy to review. The map pins are approximate because CASA records are address based and should not be treated as verified GPS locations.

Before engaging an aircraft maintainer

Approval and capability checks

  • Confirm the current CASA approval number and approval status.
  • Check that the approval rating covers the aircraft, engine, component or specialist task.
  • Confirm aircraft type capability and any rating limits or exclusions.
  • Confirm access to required maintenance data and approved procedures.

Operational checks

  • Confirm whether the work can be performed at the required location.
  • Check certifying staff availability and release-to-service requirements.
  • Confirm parts support, logistics and aircraft positioning requirements.
  • For commercial operations, confirm suitability under the operator’s exposition and supplier controls.

Understanding CASA Part 145 approval ratings

CASA Part 145 maintenance organisations may hold different approval ratings depending on their approved scope. A listed organisation may be approved for aircraft maintenance, engine maintenance, avionics, components, propellers, structures, non-destructive testing or other specialist maintenance activities.

Aircraft ratings

A ratings generally relate to aircraft maintenance capability. The aircraft type, category and task limits should still be checked against the official approval record.

Engine and component ratings

B and C ratings may relate to engines, APUs, avionics, instruments, equipment, landing gear, propellers or other component maintenance activities.

Specialist ratings

D ratings may relate to specialist processes such as non-destructive testing, welding, heat treatment, surface treatment or other approved specialist functions.

Independent aircraft maintenance search information

Aircraft Charter Australia provides aviation search, charter coordination and operational planning information. This page is intended to help users locate publicly listed CASA approved aircraft maintenance facilities for their own verification and decision-making. It should not be read as Aircraft Charter Australia selecting, approving or recommending a maintenance provider.

Approved maintenance facility information should be considered alongside the aircraft, operator, route and intended charter task. For broader context, Aircraft Charter Australia also provides guidance on

maintenance provider safety standards
,

aircraft charter operator safety standards

and

information.

For the official source, use the

Maintenance approval information is only one part of aircraft suitability. Customers, operators and aircraft owners may also need to consider maintenance provider suitability, aircraft registration details, operator capability and the intended charter task before making a decision.

Frequently asked questions

Does this search confirm a maintainer is approved for my aircraft?

No. The search helps identify publicly listed CASA Part 145 maintenance organisations. You still need to confirm the current approval scope, aircraft type capability and release requirements directly with the maintainer and against CASA’s official record.

Why are only four results shown?

The page limits results to the four closest matching cached records so users receive a practical shortlist rather than a long directory list. Try a broader location, different capability keyword or wider radius if you need more options.

Why are some phone or email details missing?

Some public records may not expose direct phone or email details in a way that can be reliably cached. Where contact details are not shown, use the CASA source record, the maintainer’s own website or direct business contact channels.

Can this be used for urgent AOG maintenance planning?

It may assist with early location and capability research, but urgent maintenance support should always be confirmed directly with the maintainer. Availability, location coverage, parts support, maintenance data and certifying staff coverage can change quickly.

Should maintenance facility information be considered before booking a charter aircraft?

It can be relevant, especially where aircraft availability, maintenance status, route requirements or remote operations affect the proposed charter. Maintenance information should be considered together with

operator safety standards

and

aircraft registration details

before a charter enquiry is treated as suitable or confirmed.
