Who can perform MOC (Maintenance Operation Check)?

Who can perform MOC (Maintenance Operation Check)?

• A. Qualified personnel, who are current in the specific mission, type, and design and series aircraft
• B. Any maintenance worker
• C. A civilian contractor
• D. A pilot

Answer: (A)

Authorization to perform a Maintenance Operation Check hinges on being qualified and current in the exact aircraft configuration and mission. This ensures you have up-to-date training on the specific systems, procedures, and modifications for that aircraft. Since the MOC is a safety-critical verification of readiness for its intended mission, only personnel who are certified for that aircraft’s type, design and series, and mission can conduct it. A general maintenance worker wouldn’t have the necessary current qualifications, and while a pilot or civilian contractor can be involved in maintenance activities, they must meet the same qualification and currency requirements to perform the MOC.
