Aviation glossary · Maintenance and productionShop visit
The removal of an engine, APU or major component for workshop maintenance, and the event that records what was done to it and what changed as a result.
Why it matters
A shop visit changes counters, life status and sometimes the part itself. If the event is recorded as a note rather than as data, everything downstream is estimated.
In AerSynx
Shop visits are workflow events with evidence requirements attached, and the counters they affect are recomputed rather than typed. Workflow Events →
