BCM 8 shall only be granted when:

The statement that BCM 8 shall only be granted when repair costs exceed net AVDLR costs is accurate because it directly relates to the financial assessment of aircraft maintenance. BCM, which stands for "Beyond Capable Maintenance," indicates that the cost of repairing an aircraft surpasses the cost of acquiring a new or replacement aircraft, thereby making repairs financially impractical.

In logistics and maintenance planning, AVDLR refers to Aviation Depot Level Repairables, which are components that are analyzed for their worthiness in continued operation versus the cost required to repair them. When the costs of necessary repairs exceed the value derived from continuing to use the aircraft—which is reflected in the net AVDLR costs—it signals an economically sound decision to designate the aircraft as BCM 8. This ensures that resources are allocated effectively and not wasted on uneconomical repairs.

The other options do not meet the criteria for designating an aircraft as BCM 8. The status of an aircraft being designated for retirement does not inherently correlate to the costs of repair. Similarly, the number of flight hours (less than 100) does not determine the economic decision regarding maintenance versus replacement. Lastly, failing to complete a comprehensive evaluation does not serve as a valid basis for making a judgment on the economic
