       (e)An AMO may provide aircraft type specific training and assessment for line maintenance of an aircraft to an employee holding a Category A licence in accordance with paragraph 145.A.30 (k), for authorisation to perform maintenance certification and to issue a Certificate of release to service in accordance with section 66.A.20 of the Part 66 MOS, for maintenance described in Appendix II to this MOS, if details of the training syllabus and training and assessment procedures are set out in the AMO's exposition.
       (f)An AMO may provide training to a pilot or flight engineer to perform maintenance services in relation to the tasks set out in the Part 42 MOS, if details of the training syllabus and training and assessment procedures are set out in the AMO's exposition.

         145.A.40 Tools, equipment and material
       (a)An AMO must have tools, equipment and materials to enable it to provide maintenance services for which the AMO has an approval rating and:
1. where the maintenance data specifies a particular tool or equipment must be used in the maintenance of the aircraft or aeronautical product, the AMO must use that tool or equipment, unless the use of alternative tooling or equipment is approved by alteration of maintenance data in accordance with subparagraph 145.A.45 (d) 3; and
2. the tooling and equipment must be permanently available or, where a tool or equipment is infrequently used, a method of access to that tool or equipment must be described in the AMO's exposition; and
3. sufficient aircraft access equipment and inspection platforms or docks to properly carry out its approved scope of maintenance.
       (b)An AMO must ensure that all tools, equipment and, particularly, test equipment that requires calibration, are controlled and calibrated at a periodicity to ensure serviceability and accuracy in accordance with the procedures set out in the AMO's exposition, and:
1. the tool or equipment manufacturer's recommendations; or
2. a nationally recognised standard.
       (c)An AMO must ensure that, on the day of calibration, it or the other organisation making the calibration makes and retains:
1. records of the calibrations of each item of equipment or tools that requires calibration; and
2. a record of the standard of calibration used.
       (d)An AMO must have a procedure in its exposition for managing an aircraft or aeronautical product released to service after maintenance has been performed using a tool or equipment that is subsequently found to have been outside of tolerances specified for the tool or equipment at the time the work was performed.
