For example,

As a result of damage

Or

When a C of A cannot be issued because the aircraft does not comply with the essential requirements for airworthiness.

IE.

Q

What is the purpose of the CDL?

A

The CDL (Configuration Deviation List) is compiled by the manufacturer in addition to the MMEL and detail any component which is ALLOWED to be missing at the time of dispatch.

If a component is not listed, it must be present when the aircraft is dispatched.

Q

Who can approve an aircraft modification?

A

As per Part 21, modifications can only be approved by EASA (on EASA A/C), CAA (on CAA A/C) or by an organisation approved by Part 21 (approved DOA- Design Organisation Approval), such as TC (Type Certificate) holder.

Non- EASA

On non- EASA aircraft this must be applied for with a Certificate of Design for the modification along with any relevant changes to the flight or operation manuals and submitted to the CAA.

If approved they will issue a AAN (Airworthiness Approval Notice)

38
Q

When can the CAA issue an exemption to EASA aircraft for a modification approval?

A

When a Certificate of airworthiness is temporarily invalid.

40
Q

The company issuing the certificate of fitness for flight must be approved to do so in their Part 145 approval.

43
Q

Under the ANO (Air Navigation Order), what are B conditions?

A

Non- EASA aircraft with either a valid C of A or Permit to fly can fly when:

Demonstrate the aircraft, engines or equipment.

Give flight training or flight crew testing.

Proceed to or from a maintenance or paint facility.

44
Q

Under B conditions of the ANO, when can non- EASA not registered in the UK aircraft be flown?

A

Non- EASA and not UK registered can be flown for:

Testing of the aircraft and its systems

To prove a modification

To qualify for a C of A

Demonstrating the A/C for sale.

To fly the A/C to a work facility, display area or for qualification of the C of A.

45
Q

IAW the ANO, when can minimum equipment requirements be reduced?

A

Only through agreement with the CAA.

46
Q

What is ETOPS and what does it refer to?

A

Q

What are the CAT3C operations concerning all weather operations?

A

A landing with ILS or MLS with NO DH and NO RVR.

60
Q

What do AWO operators need to be aware of with unserviceabilities?

A

Particular attention must be paid when deferrring faults IAW the MEL as the certification for AWO may be effected.
