Objectives
To provide attendees with an overview of changes brought
about by:
EC regulations
Part M
Non expiring Airworthiness Certificate (CofA)
Airworthiness Review Certificates (ARC)
AeroEXPO 2006
Slide 2
Applicability of Part M
EASA Aircraft - Aircraft that are subject to regulation of
airworthiness by EASA under Regulation (EC) No. 1592/2002
Non-EASA Aircraft - Aircraft that remain subject to regulation of
airworthiness at a national level.
In addition, any individual aircraft engaged in military, police,
customs or similar services remains subject to national
regulation, even if other aircraft of the same type, that are not
engaged in such activities, are subject to regulation by EASA;
(reference: Article 1 of Regulation (EC) No. 1592/2002).

Slide 4
The Main Issues for Aircraft and

Owners
If you are not in compliance with EASA Regulations by

28th September 2008 you may run the risk of your
aircraft being grounded.
New organisation approvals are required to be in place

to support the following changes:
Maintenance can only be undertaken by

organisations/individuals approved or licensed as
outlined in EASA Part M.Subpart F, Part 145, Part 66
There is a new organisation approval Ref: Part M

Subpart G for Continuing Airworthiness
Management. This approval may include the
AeroEXPO 2006
Slide 5
Part M Subpart B Accountability

M.A.201 Responsibilities
The owner is responsible for the continuing
airworthiness of an aircraft (and its components)
and shall ensure that no flight takes place unless
the aircraft is in compliance with M.A. 201(a).
AeroEXPO 2006
Slide 6
Certificate of Airworthiness
(CofA)
With effect from 28th September 2008 every EU

member state must be in full compliance with EASA
Parts 21, 145, 66, 147 and M.
With regard to the CofA this means that we must

change from our current style of expiring document
to the EASA Part 21 Subpart H non-expiring
version.
The non-expiring CofA is validated by the issuance

of an Airworthiness Review Certificate (ARC).
AeroEXPO 2006
Slide 7
The Main Issues for Aircraft

Designated as EASA Aircraft
The non expiring CofA must be validated by an

Airworthiness Review Certificate (ARC) either annually or
3 yearly.
For the 3 yearly ARC, aircraft must be within a controlled

environment.
The above will need organisations to gain approval in

accordance with Part M Subpart G Continuing
Airworthiness Management Organisation.
AeroEXPO 2006
Slide 8
The Controlled Environment
The continuing airworthiness of an aircraft is

continuously managed by an appropriately approved
and contracted Part M Subpart G Organisation for a
minimum of 12 months, and
Is maintained by an appropriately approved

Maintenance Organisation.
AeroEXPO 2006
Slide 9
Result of an Aircraft being

within a Controlled Environment
The approved Part M Subpart G organisation (with

the ARC privileges) can issue and re-issue the 3 year
ARC and extend it twice, on an annual basis,
(without direct CAA involvement).
The extension must include a documented

verification that the aircraft remains airworthy and
a copy of the issued or revalidated ARC has been
sent to CAA within 10 days.
AeroEXPO 2006
Slide 10
The Uncontrolled Environment
The continuing airworthiness of an aircraft is

managed by an owner or operator i.a.w. with Part M
Subpart C
The aircraft is maintained by an appropriately Part 66

Licenced Aircraft Engineer, except for complex
tasks which can only be be certified by a Subpart F or
Part 145 approved organisation
AeroEXPO 2006
Slide 11
Result of an Aircraft NOT being

within a Controlled Environment
The owner operator must contract the services of a

Part M Subpart G organisation (holding the ARC
privileges for the aircraft in question) once every 12
months.
The Part M Subpart G organisation must conduct a

full Airworthiness Review (including a physical
survey in a hangar) and when satisfied that the
aircraft is airworthy make a recommendation to
CAA for the issue of an ARC
The CAA may require to survey the aircraft prior to

issuing the ARC.

Part M Subpart F Approved

Maintenance Organisation
This maintenance approval is only valid for non

commercial aircraft, 5700kgs and below, and single
engine helicopters.
Aircraft maintained by a Subpart F organisation can

qualify as the maintenance provider within a controlled
environment.
This approval can also be used for component

maintenance for fitment to the non commercial air
transport aircraft above.
AeroEXPO 2006
Slide 14
Transition to the New NonExpiring Certificate of

Airworthiness (CofA)
It is CAA intention to effect the transition of the

documents between 28th September 2007 and 27th
September 2008.
To facilitate this transition, for every EASA aircraft on

the UK register this will require a recommendation to
be made to CAA from an appropriate source.
On the basis of this recommendation CAA will issue

the new non-expiring CofA and the initial ARC valid for
one year.
AeroEXPO 2006
Slide 15
Transition to the New NonExpiring Certificate of

Airworthiness (CofA)
After 28th September 2008 we are bound by EU

regulations in their entirety:
In order to obtain an EASA non-expiring CofA

and an ARC the applicable aspects of EASA
Part 21 Subpart H and Part M subpart G and I
must be met.
