The specific PPM schedule is detailed within Appendix D - Total Care Maintenance Proposal; Section 6.10. In addition to PPM, Reactive maintenance is required to identify, isolate and rectify a fault so that the failed equipment, prop or system can be restored to an operational and safe condition within the tolerances or limits established for in-service operations.
