The Master Minimum Equipment List (MMEL) constraints are included in which FAA-approved document?

• A. Configuration, Maintenance, and Procedures (CMP) Document
• B. Master Minimum Equipment List
• C. Consensus Standard
• D. ETOPS Operations Manual

Answer: (A)

The constraints tied to operating with inoperative equipment are incorporated into the Configuration, Maintenance, and Procedures (CMP) Document, which is FAA-approved. The MMEL itself identifies what can be inoperative and the basic limits, but the CMP brings those limits together with the actual approved airplane configuration and the procedures needed to operate safely with that equipment missing. In other words, pilots and maintenance rely on the CMP to know exactly how the aircraft should be configured, what maintenance actions are required, and what procedures to follow when items are not operable. The CMP serves as the official, FAA-approved reference that integrates MMEL constraints into daily operations. The other options aren’t the FAA-approved repository for these constraints, or they relate to different contexts not specific to MMEL integration.
