The Aircraft Records and Airworthiness Administrator supports the Aviation Maintenance Manager by maintaining accurate, complete, traceable, and audit-ready aircraft maintenance and continuing-airworthiness records. The position researches and documents regulatory and manufacturer requirements; monitors due items; reconciles CAMP, the in-house SAM Aircraft Log and Maintenance Program, and controlling source records; and administers the associated electronic and physical filing systems. The Specialist identifies discrepancies and exceptions for management review and supports SAM, LLC compliance with applicable FAA requirements, company policies, and IS-BAO commitments.

• Research Airworthiness Directives, Service Bulletins, Service Letters, Instructions for Continued Airworthiness, and other applicable regulatory or manufacturer publications for company aircraft, engines, propellers, appliances, and installed equipment.

• Attach and index source documents, maintenance releases, logbook entries, work packages, inspection records, and other objective evidence supporting compliance.
• Conduct and document the company required monthly SMS, IS-BAO-aligned AD and SB research and compliance audits. Maintain a traceable research log identifying the audit date, sources searched, publications reviewed, affected aircraft or components, applicability determination, compliance status, follow-up action, reviewer or approval status, supporting evidence, and filing location.
• Promptly escalate new, uncertain, overdue, incomplete, or conflicting regulatory and manufacturer publication findings to the Aviation Maintenance Manager for technical review and disposition.
• Cross-check CAMP, the SAM Aircraft Log and Maintenance Program, aircraft logbooks, and controlling source records. Identify differences, correct authorized tracking information in the appropriate system, and document each reconciliation and unresolved exception.
• Support the continued development, validation, testing, implementation, and controlled use of the SAM flight and maintenance log as the department central tool for maintenance control, aircraft status visibility, records management, reporting, and decision support.
