View Full Version : Is ISO17025-accreditation necessary condition for lab's of aviation repair stations?

Hello,
I am looking through the requirements of the EASA, FAA which are concerning measuring and test equipment, but I did not find directly that metrology lab of a aviation repair station must be ISO17025-accredited. There are only common requirements. What are your opinions and what status of metrology lab's do you have?
Thanks.

sgribako,

Someone in the aviation community will likely reply soon and have a better answer.....perhaps Graeme.

I am unaware of any dynamic requirement from FAA, but I suspect they would not oppose accreditation either.

We are a repair station with an in-house cal lab and the use of ISO17025 accredited cal labs is recent explicit (new) requirement by our local airworthiness authority. So far this is not a policy of FAA, EASA etc so your lab (and my lab) processes will still be subjected to audits by them.
