Serialized or Fleet 14 CFR Parts 91, 91K, 135 & EASA (European Countries)
To date, all Serialized and Fleet 14 CFR 91 & 135 MELs have been approved by the FAA for LOA D195 or OpSpec D095. Our Minimum Equipment Lists follow the FAA format which allows for a more expedited response and turn-around when revisions are required. We use the OEM Illustrations, Maintenance Images, and Color where the OEM does providing a much higher quality MEL. The MEL section and Maintenance Procedures Document section are also bookmarked for convenience. Our MELs help create a culture of safety and standardization within your Flight and Maintenance Department with our client specific in-depth Management and Training Programs for both 14 CFR 91, 135, and EASA. We think you will agree. Samples available. Serialized MEL Completion times depend on aircraft type and range from 3 or more business days due to the type of and size of MEL upon receipt of the ATA item inventory from the client (Fleet MELs require a differences ATA item inventory).

Operator & FAA/CAA Review and Revision Policy:
TIMELINE FOR SUBMITTING ALL ORIGINAL MELS AND MEL REVISIONS.
All MELS and MEL Revisions that are provided by SourceOne Aviation Compliance must be submitted to the Operator/Client’s assigned FAA FSDO or IFO or the Foreign CAA with 7 business days of receipt by the client/operator.
REVIEW.
The Owner or Operator must review the MEL and each subsequent revision prior to submitting to their FAA, or EASA office and submit to their FAA or EASA Regulatory office within 10 business days of receipt. If the MEL goes out of date while the FAA is reviewing it, any updates are an additional cost.
REVISIONS REQUESTED BY YOUR OPERATION DURING THE INITIAL APPROVAL PROCESS.
This is performed free of charge; however the operator must include ALL corrections requested by the entire company in one request. We strongly encourage all principals in the organization compile their list of questions and requests in ONE submission to SourceOne Aviation Compliance and must be completed with 21 business days. Multiple revision requests will result in additional charges (Please see revision costs below). ONE revision request is required in order to manage the costs of the program and save time in expediting the completed program to your operation. The revisions are accomplished in by sending a copy scanned in PDF format to our email at sales@rvsmcompliance.com.
REVISIONS REQUESTED BY YOUR FAA INSPECTOR DURING THE INITIAL APPROVAL PROCESS.
Unless FAA Order 8900.1A Volume 4, Chapter 4, Sections 2 and 3 change during the review process, the Inspector’s changes are performed free of charge; however the FAA must include ALL changes requested by the POI, PMI, & PAI in one revision request. Multiple revision requests will result in additional charges. This type of revision is part of the approval process. SourceOne Aviation Compliance understands that since the requirements could vary between FAA inspectors and also the different FAA Flight Standards Regional or District Office’s we have a process to make applicable changes that your inspector may require as long as those changes follow FAA Order 8900.1A Vol 4, Chapt 4, Sections 2 & 3. The revisions are accomplished in by sending a copy scanned in PDF format to our email at sales@rvsmcompliance.com. If the MEL(s) that are previously FAA approved are transferred to another FAA Regional Office, the cost of the revision is as follows in costs listed below. Operator must respond to any FAA requests and provide a response to the FAA for those request within 14 business days.
WHAT SHOULD BE INCLUDED IN THE REVISION REQUEST BY YOUR ORGANIZATION OR THE FAA?
REVISIONS MUST INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION:
- The item that needs to be corrected clearly identified.
- The item to be corrected can be circled on a printed page from the MEL or identified by page number and MEL ATA number.
- The specific issue or concern clearly detailed and what corrective action is being required. If the corrective action is unknown, we can offer suggestions to present to your operation or your FSDO, however your input from you and your FAA is greatly appreciated to expedite this process.
- Your contact information (if different from what is indicated as the client contact on the operator form).
NOTE: This revision process is usually 1-90 business days or possibly longer depending on our current task list to receive an amended copy upon the revision requirement or current workload placed on our staff.
REVISIONS REQUIRED DUE TO CHANGES TO THE MASTER MEL (MMEL).
A revision to the MMEL will occur as either a STANDARD revision or an INTERIM revision. Standard revisions will be designated by a number change to the revision status. For example, the revision status may change from revision 8 to 9. Letter revisions are interim changes to the current revision number. For example, revision status 8 would become 8a when an interim revision occurs.
OTHER REVISIONS.
There are 4 other reasons for revising an MEL that are expected during the next MMEL revision:
- Operator/Owner Equipment Addition or Removal of an ATA Item
- Changes to FAA Order 8900.1A Volume 4, Chapter 4, Sections 2 & 3
- FAA Policy Letter Issuance within 6 months.
- Late submissions of the MEL or submissions that are not completed in the required 10-day time frame by the operator.
NOTIFICATION
Aircraft operators are normally notified via email from SourceOne Aviation Compliance when an FAA revision has occurred to one of their serialized MEL manuals. This notification will include the revision type: letter or number and the current revision date. SourceOne Aviation Compliance DOES provide an email notification to the person listed under the account name for all aircraft where an FAA MMEL has been posted. However, it is the operators’ responsibility to ensure that they are aware of a revision to the MMEL. Most revisions will need to be accomplished and submitted to your FAA Inspector within a recommended period of 90 days with exceptions. Providing a current OEM Maintenance Procedures Document is the responsibility of the client/operator.
REVISION PRICING
Most MEL vendors will not display this, E.G., Gulfstream will charge you $2,950 for your first MEL and $1,475 for future updates. So our pricing is more than competitive, it is far more cost-effective.
No annual or subscription fees – EVER. Revision costs are based on the amount of pages and content that is revised:
Cost: Flat Rate: $250 per day.
FAA pages: adding and inserting stamped pages for the FAA is included.
Special Revisions: Revisions requested by the client that contains specific criteria, data, or formatting not consistent with industry standards that require dedicated work hours by SourceOne Aviation Compliance’s technical editors/writers.
EXPEDITED ORDERS
Any expedited or AOG order or Revision will be charged an additional $350.00. For all revisions which are normally free, the charge will be $350.00, for all paid revisions which are normally $350.00 will be $700.00.
