Currently recurrent trainings (Present Method) is Not covering the

scope of continuation trainings.
Hence at present Continuation training is not fulfilling the
requirement of PCAA and EASA-PART 145.
Harmonized procedure with obvious responsibilities is required for
the arrangements of continuation training in all divisions. Matter is
expected to be established once for all after this meeting.
A meeting was arranged in Quality Audit Section on March
05,2010 to set this matter- The intimation was sent to all DCE of
BM and LM, only DCE LM (AV) Boeing fleet and DCE BM A/S
(ACOH) attended.
