§ 145.1 Applicability. 

This part describes how to obtain a 

repair station certificate. This part 
also contains the rules a certificated 
repair station must follow related to 
its performance of maintenance, pre-
ventive maintenance, or alterations of 
an aircraft, airframe, aircraft engine,

to which part 43 applies. It also applies 
to any person who holds, or is required 
to hold, a repair station certificate
