Permit to Fly: the new rules

Some important principles:Different types of PtF all covered by one ruleshared responsibility: Agency – NAAOld national PtF grandfatheredApplicable to EU registered aircraftValid in all member statesPrivileges for DOA and POA Maintenance rules in flight conditionsSeparate Subpart P: Permit to Fly

16-03-07 Cologne Slide 13

European Aviation Safety Agency

Different types of PtF all in one rule

Complicating factor for drafting Existing (R) C of A temporarily invalid

unapproved changeUnrepaired damage(long) due maintenance

Pre C of ATC not yet issued (Production) Flight testing

C of A or Restricted C of A not appropriate or not possible

Air racing / record breakingSome orphan aircraft

European Aviation Safety Agency

Shared responsibility Agency-NAA

Complicating factor for drafting: shared responsibility: Agency – NAA

Agency: All design issues

NAA: Conformity (production) C of A issuance and oversight Permit to Fly issuance Implementation of maintenance rules

Permit to Fly: often deviation from approved design: Agency involvement

European Aviation Safety Agency

PtF Grandfathering

Principle:All PtF or other certificate grandfathered until first expiry date or 28-3-08 maximumFor “permanent” PtF: flight conditions are grandfathered indefinitely (until need for change),unless Agency determines insufficient level of safety

(Reg 1702/2003 art. 2.e)

European Aviation Safety Agency

PtF applicability

PtF rules applicable only to aircraft registered in EU; orUnregistered when identification marking prescribed by MS

(Reg 1702/2003 art. 2.2)

Result: new rules do not cover validation of foreign PtF

European Aviation Safety Agency

PtF validity

PtF issued in accordance with new rules are valid in all Member States:No additional national conditions/limitations for domains covered by the approved flight conditionsHolder must comply with other local operational rules outside scope of PtFNational rules should not obstruct free circulation

European Aviation Safety Agency

DOA/POA privileges

DOA (possible) privileges:Approve flight conditions for all PtF except 21A.701(a)(15)Issue PtF when configuration controlled by DOA

POA (possible) privileges:Approve flight conditions and issue PtF for aircraft it produced when design is approved

In previous draft: privilege for CAMO: this will be subject of new NPA

Maintenance rules for PtF

According to 2042/2003 art. 3.3 aircraft under PtF are exempted from Part MIn stead: maintenance rules are defined in the flight conditionsIn most cases they can refer to Part M

Separate Subpart P

Initial drafts were amendments to Subpart H (airworthiness certificates)Due to complexity decided to create new subpartAs a consequence all references to PtF are deleted from subpart H
