Combined Airworthiness Organisation

A single approval combining continuing airworthiness management and maintenance for non-complex aircraft used outside commercial air transport — in effect a small CAMO and a small Part-145 in one.

Why it matters

Smaller operators carry the same obligations with far fewer people, so anything that needs a dedicated administrator does not get done.

In AerSynx

Workspaces are entitlements rather than a bundle: an organisation can run airworthiness and records first, and add maintenance production later without a migration. Platform overview →
