Prepare AMM translation into Chinese with controlled revisions, ATA references, task identifiers and agreed review responsibilities.
View the file review example ↓Structure is part of the content
Identify the controlled manual, revision and supplied chapter or task identifiers before selecting files for Chinese translation. Include effectivity information, referenced figures and related task pages needed to understand the selected passages. A detached paragraph may not show which equipment or condition it applies to.
Keep the document reference beside the translation and any source question. If a task points to a missing figure or an inconsistent revision, ask the source owner to resolve it. A translator should not choose a substitute procedure because it appears to describe similar work.
ATA numbering is a document-organization convention, not a translation approval. Use the OEM’s specified revision, chapter scheme and controlled manual. Confirm with the operator or maintenance organization which language version personnel are authorized and competent to use; this article does not establish an EASA-wide translation requirement.

Review status: questions to confirm
Freeze the source package
Identify the OEM-controlled revision, relevant chapters, illustrations and effectivity. Keep superseded files separate.
Scope the Chinese handback
Agree editable or bilingual output, task and reference checks, Chinese terminology and a log of unresolved questions.
Keep release authority clear
Translation and linguistic review do not replace the OEM, operator or maintenance organization’s decisions on approved data and permitted use.

Product manuals.
The Aojielong record supports English-to-Chinese aviation product manuals. It does not identify an AMM, ATA-specific review or approval of maintenance data.
For an English-to-Chinese AMM inquiry, identify the controlled source revision, chapter range, intended users, permitted use, Chinese script, editable files, illustrations and the technical review owner.
Review the action, condition and reference together
Compare each Chinese instruction with its complete source step: action, stated condition, limitation and any linked warning. Keep quantities, units and protected identifiers connected to that step. If the source omits or contradicts a condition, return a source question rather than writing a new operating instruction.
Agree how warnings, cautions, notes and task references will appear in the Chinese return. For bilingual review, retain the source task ID and revision so the reviewer can locate the exact passage. The document owner needs to confirm the intended use and acceptance process separately from translation.
Use approved references without importing a different revision
Provide the terminology and related manuals approved for this assignment, with their revisions. A Chinese component name from an earlier file may be useful, but it should be checked against the current source and the component it describes.
For an update, supply the earlier source and Chinese return, the new source and the affected-file list. Translation memory can suggest earlier wording; it does not prove that the surrounding condition, effectivity or linked figure remains unchanged. Review affected references before accepting reused text.
Agree the return and review responsibility
List the selected tasks, available editable files and required Chinese or bilingual return. Identify the source-question owner, terminology reviewer and any separate technical or operational acceptance required by your organization. Confirm the actual review coverage and layout work in the quotation.
