 (b) if the instructions for continuing airworthiness do not include procedures for carrying out the maintenance—an aviation industry standard that applies to the maintenance.

 (a) a Part 145 organisation is carrying out maintenance on an aircraft or aeronautical product; and
 (b) the organisation has written a procedure for carrying out the maintenance;
then, at that time, the procedure written by the organisation is the maintenance data for the maintenance for the organisation.
