When does an aircraft fabric covering repair become a major repair?
- When the repair extends over a wing rib.
- When the repair extends over three adjacent wing ribs.
- When the repair extends over two adjacent wing ribs.
Explanation from PART66Online
A localised fabric patch is a minor repair, but once the repair spans the bays of two adjacent ribs it affects a significant area of the load-carrying surface and is classed as a major repair requiring approved data. A repair over a single rib remains minor.
