When do you need an MEL? Can you use the MMEL? What’s an NEF?

We can help you sort through these questions to ensure your aircraft keeps flying.

An MEL allows you to operate an aircraft, despite having broken equipment on board. It’s fully customized to your aircraft, making it a lot simpler to use than an MMEL.

Our guide will show you how to use your MEL, what you need for different registries and destinations, and relevant revisions so your aircraft won’t have to be grounded.
