What type of deficiencies does a supplemental AIDR cover?

A supplemental AIDR (Aircraft Inspection Deficiency Report) is specifically focused on identifying and documenting deficiencies that were not captured in the initial AIDR. This means that if there were additional discrepancies or issues discovered after the initial inspection, a supplemental AIDR serves to address and record those findings. It acts as a follow-up to ensure that all deficiencies are accounted for, providing a more comprehensive overview of the aircraft's condition.

By targeting deficiencies that were missed or overlooked in the first assessment, the supplemental report enhances the overall safety and airworthiness of the aircraft. This is particularly important in aviation, where rigorous maintenance and inspection protocols are essential for operational safety.
