EASA Working Group 21.023 • During the transposition of JAR-21 into EU law it was recognised that common requirements were necessary to address the issuance of Permits to Fly (PtF). • However due to a lack of time no detailed and comprehensive set of requirements and AMC/GM was developed. • Therefore a transition period until March 28, 2007 was established during which the NAAs were still responsible for all aspects related to PtF, giving the Agency time to prepare an opinion for amending Regulation 1702/2003.
EASA Working Group 21.023 • Recent developments have shown that there is also a need to improve the requirements related to the issuance of restricted certificates of airworthiness. • This has become particularly apparent in the way we deal with aircraft without a TC holder or where the TC has become invalid for other reasons (“orphan aircraft”). • From March 28,2007, Orphan aircraft will fall under EASA scope • For existing orphan aircraft , amendment of ER 1592 under review at the European Council includes them in Annex II. But only part of them
EASA Working Group 21.023 • Objective of the working group • The aim of this rulemaking task is to review the requirements for all the airworthiness certificates other than the standard certificate of airworthiness. A consistent framework for the various possibilities should be established defining those possibilities and elaborating conditions for issuance. • The envisaged deliverables • draft NPA texts for amending Part 21 and/or its AMC/GM accordingly. • If necessary , suggest amendments to the Basic Regulation
EASA Working Group 21.023 • Working frame and time schedule • Composition of the group • EASA representative ( secretary ) – 1 member • NAA representatives ( Austria – France – UK) – 3 members • Airline – 1 member • Industry – 1 member • Europe Air Sports – 2 members • Starting from Feb 2nd to March 31st • Tight time frame to permit amendment of PART 21 prior March 2007 ( 9 months)
EASA Working Group 21.023 • Where we are • Tasks split into two parts • Writing the amendment of PART 21 requirements to have the NPA available by end of April • Writing of AMC / GM for application and issuance of airworthiness certificate
EASA Working Group 21.023 • Permit to Fly • Covers any kind of permit • Flight test and development aircraft • Production aircraft • Ferry flight • Other purposes • Aircraft not falling in the standard or restricted C of A category
EASA Working Group 21.023 • Restricted C of A • Clarify the purpose of Restricted Type Certificate • Clarify the applicability of Restricted Certificate of Airworthiness • Two cases • R C of A issued based on RTC • R C of A without RTC
EASA Working Group 21.023 • Case of orphans • Aircraft without a TC holder or where the TC has become invalid for other reasons • Concept defines at the last meeting to be consolidated by EASA • New orphan aircraft after March 28, 2007 • Remain under C of A ( restricted or standard ), maintained under Part M • Orphans aircraft flying before March 28, 2007 under NAA regulations • Restricted C of A with Part M and Part 21 adaptation or • Permit to Fly , maintenance under NAA rules , today preferred approach
