First Edition and supporting resources
Read the standard. Find the document for the task.
Each AF Standard has a defined technical scope and its own document collection. The original PDFs are available to view online or download from this page.
Requirements and applicability
Start with the First Edition for definitions, requirements, technical boundaries and the relationship between normative and informative content.
Practical implementation resources
Find policies, manuals, procedures, profiles, checklists and records by document code or subject. Supporting tools do not replace the standard.
Purpose
AF 9800 — the technical framework.
AF 9800 establishes a structured assurance framework for aerospace maintenance capability and competence of technical personnel whose work affects continued conformity, safety or mission performance. It connects data, configuration, tooling, parts, inspection, release and continuing professional capability.
Why this subject matters
Dependable aerospace capability must continue after delivery. Maintenance quality depends on correct configuration, current data, eligible parts, suitable tools, competent personnel, inspection, handover and bounded release evidence.
Intended application
Where the technical field applies.
The published framework can apply across aerospace lifecycle responsibilities, according to actual activity and scope.
- MRO and overhaul organizations
- Aerospace technical services
- Operators with maintenance responsibility
- Space and ground-system maintenance
- Inspectors and test personnel
- Remote technical support
- Lifecycle logistics affecting continued conformity
Application domains
Requirement architecture
How AF 9800 is organized.
Maintenance capability
Activity scope, facilities, technical data, equipment and resources.
Planning & work control
Work packages, sequence, hold points and handovers.
Configuration & life status
Installed identity, life-limited items, history and effectivity.
Parts & tooling
Eligibility, authenticity, calibration and suitability.
Inspection & release
Critical checks, independent verification and bounded authority.
Repair & overhaul
Technical basis, hidden damage, remaining life and acceptance.
Competence & authorization
Knowledge, practical assessment, task scope and expiry.
Continued capability & human factors
Practice, fatigue, workload, communication and reassessment.
Digital & remote maintenance
Identity, data integrity, configuration and controlled advice.
First Edition / publication package

Programme relationships
Connected scope, separate requirements.
AF 9100:2026 provides the published organizational and lifecycle assurance foundation. AF 9800 addresses a distinct technical discipline with its own First Edition and supporting resources; conformity with one AF Standard does not automatically establish conformity with another.
Technical connections
Relevant Technical Committees.
These connections identify subject expertise relevant to the scope. Formal drafting and publication decisions follow separate technical review and approval processes.
