ATA ISPEC 2200 SPECIFICATION.

First we will start by defining what an ATA is:


A numerical technical classification of all systems and subsystems of an aircraft
that is universally used in aircraft engineering and aircraft maintenance. It was
developed by the former Air Transport Association (ATA) since renamed Airlines
for America. After its first issue in 1956, the classification has been adopted
industry-wide in aeronautical engineering and maintenance documentation. It is
based on 100 numbered categories grouped into 'Chapters' within which there are
numbered sections and sub-sections. This original classification, the ATA 'spec
100' was last revised in 1999 and in 2000 it was incorporated with another ATA
'spec 2100' which had been developed to define specifications for the electronic
exchange of technical data in a new ATA 'Ispec 2200'. 'Information standards for
aviation maintenance'. In the issue, the ATA described "Ispec 2200" as "a global
aviation industry standard for the content, structure, and electronic exchange of
aircraft engineering, maintenance, and flight operations information." It consists of
a series of data specifications relating to maintenance requirements and
procedures, aircraft configuration control.

ATA Ispec 2200 is a global aviation industry standard for the content, structure and
electronic exchange of aircraft engineering and maintenance information. It
consists of a series of data specifications relating to the requirements and
procedures for maintenance and configuration control of the aircraft.
The goal of Ispec 2200 is to minimize the cost and effort of operators and
manufacturers, improve information quality and timeliness, and facilitate the
delivery of manufacturers' data that meets the airline's operational needs.
Recognizing the synergies between ATA Spec 100 and Spec 2100, the industry
developed this consolidated specification for guidance in the preparation of
technical documentation in support of aircraft maintenance. It includes the industry-
wide standard for aircraft system numbering, as well as content and electronic
format specifications for technical documents, regardless of delivery medium.

ATA Ispec 2200 provides the following document type definitions (DTDs):

Aircraft Maintenance Manual (AMM)

Catalog of illustrated parts.

Component Maintenance Manual

Manu Consumable Products

Illustrated parts catalog for engine


Engine (Shop) Manual

Bug Reporting Manual

Flight Crew Operations Manual

Minimum Equipment Master List

ATA Ispec 2200


ATA Ispec 2200 is a global standard used in the civil aviation industry for the
creation and electronic exchange of aircraft engineering, maintenance and flight
operations information.
Comprises a set of data specifications covering different specialized areas of
documentation requirements
The specification is controlled by the Air Transport Association and has been the
standard to which most Civil Aircraft publications adhere.
While previously this information was contained in two separate specifications,
ATA100 and Spec 2100, Ispec 2200 was introduced to consolidate these into a
single specification. It provides specific guidance on how the material should be
written and, more importantly, how the information should be modified.

ATA Ispec 2200


Developed by Airlines for America (formerly the Air Transport Association), ATA
Ispec 2200 is recognized as the global industry standard in aviation, providing
guidelines for the content, structure and electronic exchange of information related
to aircraft engineering, maintenance and operations. Of flight. Data specifications
are a set of data specifications related to maintenance requirements and
procedures, aircraft configuration control, and flight operations. Ispec 2200 was
developed as a consolidation between ATA Spec 100 and Spec 2100 and provides
guidance for the preparation of maintenance-related technical documentation.

In 2000, ATA Spec 100 and ATA Spec 2100 were incorporated into ATA Ispec 2200:
Information Standards for Aviation Maintenance. ATA Spec 100 and Spec 2100 will not be
updated beyond the 1999 revision level.
