3. Restricted Certificates of Airworthiness R-CoA Overview of changes introduced by NPA 2008-06 +CRD:
R-TC eligibility limited to special purpose
AP DOA possible for continued validity of TC
R-STC concept
Clarification: SAS and separate design approval
R-CoA based on normal TC + R-STC
Orphan TC becomes design approval based on SAS automatically
4. Restricted Certificates of Airworthiness R-CoA R-TC eligibility limited to special purpose
Only when a normal TC is not appropriate
Designed for a specific use under defined conditions
Permanent deviations from essential requirements are justified
E.g. agricultural use, fire prevention / suppression, large volume cargo
NOTE: R-TC is not an operational category, i.e. if compliance with ER can be shown: no need for R-TC
5. Restricted Certificates of Airworthiness R-CoA Other than DOA possible for continued validity of TC
To allow easier maintenance of old TC trying to avoid more orphans
For continued airworthiness activities only
Not for design changes
6. Restricted Certificates of Airworthiness R-CoA R-STC concept
Allows modification of aircraft with normal TC for a special purpose without the need for applying for a complete new R-TC
R-CoA issued based on TC as modified/supplemented by R-STC
7. Restricted Certificates of Airworthiness R-CoA Clarification: SAS and separate design approval
In current rules SAS seems to include design approval
In new system made clear:
SAS is similar to TC basis made of one special condition
Separate design approval if aircraft design is shown to be in compliance with SAS
8. Restricted Certificates of Airworthiness R-CoA Orphan TC becomes design approval based on SAS automatically
For new cases of orphan aircraft:
Design approval based on SAS is automatically generated by law and is the old TC
NAAs will have to revoke CoA and issue R-CoA in stead
9. Restricted Certificates of Airworthiness R-CoA Possible grandfathering of national design approvals for R-CoA valid on 28-03-2007
Need for survey of cases
