MAG 8130-3 Tag Survey

ASA Member Survey regarding MAG changes related to 8130-3 Tag Requirements.

The revised Maintenance Annex Guidance imposes a requirement that US-based repair stations with EASA credentials who accept new parts made under US production approval MUST obtain them with an 8130-3 tag.  This was a change from past practice (in the past, the documentation requirement was excluded from the Maintenance Annex).  ASA is seeking data to help us assess how much this change has affected our members, and to help ASA decide how best to commit resources to help our members.

Only aggregate information will be shared with ASA Directors, industry or public.  No individual information shared.
1.Approximately how much aircraft parts inventory, by fair market value, does your company own or possess (including consignments held on behalf of other parties)?
2.Do you have aircraft parts inventory that is affected by the requirement for an 8130-3 (e.g. inventory that does not bear an 8130-3 tag)
3.Approximately how much of your aircraft parts inventory does NOT have 8130-3 tags or other comparable airworthiness documentation (for example, EASA Form One)?
4.Do you feel that you will have trouble selling the aircraft parts that do NOT have 8130-3 tags or other comparable airworthiness documentation (for example, EASA Form One)?
5.Which of the following strategies have you used to try to obtain 8130-3 tags for aircraft parts in the past year (please check all that apply)?
