Fifty years in aviation maintenance. Three decades certifying repair stations under FAA, EASA, and ICAO frameworks — across the United States, Colombia, Panama, and Venezuela. Your application, your manuals, your audit. Done right the first time.
Inadequate manuals. Capability lists that don't match scope. Roles unfilled or wrongly assigned. Quality systems on paper but not in practice. Procedures the staff hasn't actually been trained on. Auditors notice — fast.
I've sat on both sides of the audit table — as the consultant building the application and as the Accountable Manager defending it. I know which findings auditors raise first, and how to write your manuals so they don't.
These FAA, EASA, and ICAO line maintenance certificates were held by the organizations listed above during my tenure there (1994–2010) and are no longer active today. They're shown here as a record of experience, not as current certifications.
Engagements span line maintenance, technical training, and Part 145 certification work across roles at Go For Airline Services, JET Aircraft Maintenance, and Delta Airlines.
Dates shown reflect when each certification, license, or training was completed, over a career spanning 1975 to present. They document experience and are not a claim of current active status for any individual license or organizational approval.
Initial repair station certificate, ratings, and capability list build-out. Form 8310-3 and supplements, FSDO submission, and engagement through certificate issuance.
Initial approval and scope expansion. EASA Form 4 management personnel, Form 2 application, MOE preparation, and competent-authority engagement through certification.
Bilateral certification under FAA-EASA MAG procedures. Dual approvals built right the first time — one set of procedures that satisfies both regulators.
Repair Station Manual, Quality Control Manual, MOE, and supporting procedures. Written to your operation, not pulled from a template.
Mock audits with full findings reports. Gap closure plans. Personnel readiness — because your staff will be interviewed, and what they say matters.
For new Accountable Managers and Form 4 holders. The role's accountability is real and personal. I'll prepare you for what auditors actually ask.
Two to three weeks. We map your current state against the regulator's expectations and produce a written gap report — what exists, what's missing, what needs rewriting. You'll know the scope before you commit.
Repair Station Manual, Quality Control Manual, MOE, training program, and capability list. Written to your facility and your people — not template fill-ins.
FAA Form 8310-3 (or supplement) and EASA Form 2, with all attachments. We handle the regulator correspondence and respond to requests for information.
Mock audit, findings closure, and personnel briefings. Your Accountable Manager and Form 4 holders walk into the audit ready to answer the questions auditors actually ask.
On-site during the certification audit. After the certificate, I stay engaged for surveillance audits, scope changes, and bilateral approvals.
Pick a time that works for you — we'll talk through your certification or consulting needs.

A first conversation is free. Bring me the regulator, the scope, and where you are in the process. I'll tell you what's realistic, what it'll take, and whether I'm the right fit.
