What does MEL/CDL stand for?

MEL/CDL stands for Minimum Equipment List and Configuration Deviation List. The Minimum Equipment List is the published guide that specifies which inoperative items can be left unfixed for a flight to proceed, as long as certain procedures and limitations are followed. The Configuration Deviation List covers situations where the aircraft’s configuration is nonstandard or missing nonessential items, but still permitted for flight under defined conditions. Together, these two lists provide the framework for determining when a flight can operate safely despite equipment or configuration deviations.
