text: Regulation (EC) No 1008/2008

text: . This means that the provisions of Part-T are not applicable to aircraft registered in a third country for which their regulatory safety oversight has been delegated to a Member State. In such a case,

text: Article 1

text: (a)(ii) stipulates that the provisions of Part-M are applicable. The conditions for the approval of the dry lease-in are specified in ORO.AOC.110.

text: SECTION A: TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS

text: SUBPART B — CONTINUING AIRWORTHINESS

text: PRE-FLIGHT INSPECTION Contents of the pre-flight inspection may be found in AMC M.A.301-1.

text: RECORDS The records should provide all the necessary information to allow the CAMO and the competent authority to clearly establish the airworthy condition of the aircraft during the whole lease period.

text: MAINTENANCE ORGANISATION

text: 1. The CAMO carries the responsibility for the airworthy condition of the aircraft for which it performs the continuing airworthiness management; it should thus be satisfied before the intended flight that all required maintenance has been properly carried out by a maint enance organisation.

text: 2. The CAMO should establish a process to verify that the maintenance organisation complies with the applicable requirements of Subpart E.

text: CONTRACT 1. The contract between the CAMO and the maintenance organisation(s) should specify in detail the responsibilities and the work to be performed by each party. 2. Both the specification of work and the assignment of responsibilities should be clear, unambiguous and sufficiently detailed to ensure that no misunderstanding arises between the parties concerned that could result in a situation where work that has a bearing on the airworthiness or serviceability of aircraft is not or will not be properly performed. Appendix XI to

text: (EU) No 1321/2014

text: AMC M.A.708(c) gives further details on the contents of the contract.

text: 3. The CAMO should consider checking at the maintenance facilities any aspect of the contracted work to satisfy its responsibility for the airworthiness of the aircraft during the period of the contract.

text: CONTRACT Normally the contract with the maintenance organisation should be established for the duration of the lease period, which should not be more than 7 months. For unscheduled line maintenance and component maintenance up to engines, the contract may take the form of individual work orders as long as the scope of work and the responsibilities of the CAMO and of the maintenance organisation are properly addressed.

text: SUBPART E — MAINTENANCE ORGANISATION

text: GM Subpart E

text: The CAMO should establish a process to verify that the maintenance organisation complies with the applicable requirements of Subpart E, one of the inputs to this process may be whether the maintenance organisation holds an approval by the State of Registry issued in accordance with the requirements of ICAO Annex 6 Part I Section 8.7.

text: AMC Subpart E point (3)

text: The occurrence-reporting system should describe the procedures followed by the organisation whereby information on faults, malfunctions, defects and other occurrences that cause or might cause adverse effects on the continuing airworthiness of the aircraft are transmitted to the operator, to the organisation responsible for the type design of that aircraft, and to the State of Registry.

text: SUBPART G — ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS FOR CAMOs

text: AMC T.A.704 Continuing airworthiness management exposition (CAME)

text: In addition to the contents described in AMC M.A.704, the CAME should provide additional information describing how the CAMO manages the continuing airworthiness of the aircraft under Part-T. Guidance on the specific contents may be found in Appendix I to AMC T.A.704.

text: AMC T.A.706 Personnel requirements

text: 1. Adequate knowledge may be demonstrated by training or work experience with the applicable thirdcountry regulations or a combination of training and experience. 2. The competence assessment required by M.A.706(d) should include the knowledge necessary for the performance of the activities under Part-T.

text: (EU) No 1321/2014

text: GM T.A.708 Continuing airworthiness management

text: The CAMO has already approved procedures to perform the management of the aircraft under Part-M. These procedures may be adapted as necessary to satisfy the requirements under T.A.708 or the CAMO may decide to develop different procedures.

text: AMC T.A.709 Maintenance data

text: Applicable maintenance data should include the ICA applicable to the aircraft, the requirements, procedures, standards and mandatory safety information (MSI) issued by the State of Registry, the requirements, procedures, standards and MSI issued by the Agency. The applicable maintenance data should be in a language acceptable to the competent authority.

text: AMC T.A.711 Privileges

text: Under the privilege of M.A.711(a)(3), the CAMO may contract the performance of the continuing airworthiness tasks required by Part-T with another organisation working under the CAMO’s quality system and listed on the approval certificate.

text: SECTION B: ADDITIONAL PROCEDURES FOR COMPETENT AUTHORITIES

text: SUBPART A — GENERAL

text: Staff should have adequate qualifications and should have received adequate training as described in AMC1 M.B.102 and AMC2 M.B.102, and in addition staff should have sufficient knowledge of the applicable third-country airworthiness requirements. Such knowledge may be demonstrated if staff have received training in or have work experience with the applicable third-country airworthiness requirements or a combination of training and work experience.

text: AMC M.B.102(d) may be used by the competent authority to establish the procedures required to comply with Part-T. In addition, the competent authority should establish procedures to ensure adequate coordination with the State of Registry.

text: AMC T.B.104 Record-keeping

text: AMC M.B.104(a) and AMC M.B.104(f) may be used by the competent authority to establish its recordkeeping system.

text: (EU) No 1321/2014

text: AMC T.B.702 Initial approval

text: 1. The audit report EASA Form 13T should be used to record the audit performance and the findings. EASA Form 13T may be found in Appendix II to AMC T.B.702. 2. When the organisation is not approved under Part-M Subpart G for a particular aircraft type, then the organisation should apply for a change under M.A.713 to include that aircraft type in the scope of approval at the same time when it applies for approval under Part-T Subpart G to manage the continuing airworthiness of aircraft referred to in T.B.101. 3. When the organisation is already approved under Part-M Subpart G for a particular aircraft type, then the approval to manage the continuing airworthiness of aircraft referred to in T.B.101 should be considered as a change that requires prior approval by the competent authority. The approval by the competent authority should be performed by approving the proposed amendments to the CAME.

text: APPENDICES TO AMCs AND GM

text: Appendix I to AMC T.A.704 Continuing airworthiness management exposition (CAME)

text: The CAME of the CAMO should be amended to take into account the following elements:

text: 1. In Part 0.1, the corporate commitment by the accountable manager stating compliance with Part-T:

text: PART 0 — GENERAL ORGANISATION

text: 0.1 Corporate commitment by the accountable manager

text: The accountable manager’s exposition statement should embrace the intent of the following paragraph, and in fact this statement may be used without amendment. Any amendment to the statement should not alter its intent. ‘This exposition defines the organisation and procedures upon which the continuing airworthiness management organisation’s approval of Joe Bloggs under Part-M and Part-T is based. These procedures are approved by the undersigned and must be complied with, as applicable, in order to ensure that all the continuing airworthiness activities including maintenance for aircraft managed by Joe Bloggs are carried out on time to an approved standard. It is accepted that these procedures do not override the necessity of complying with any new or amended regulation published by the Agency or the competent authority from time to time where these new or amended regulations are in conflict with these procedures. The competent authority will approve this organisation whilst the competent authority is satisfied that the procedures are being followed. It is understood that the competent authority reserves the right to suspend, limit or revoke the Continuing airworthiness management organisation’s approval of the organisation, as

text: (EU) No 1321/2014

text: applicable, if the competent authority has evidence that the procedures are not followed and the standards not upheld. In the case of air carriers licensed in accordance with

text: Regulation (EC) No 1008/2008

text: , suspension or revocation of the approval of the continuing airworthiness management organisation’s approval would invalidate the AOC.’

text: 2. In Part 0.2, point c) ‘Scope of work — aircraft managed’:

text: 0.2 General information

text: c) Scope of work — aircraft managed This paragraph should specify the scope of work for which the CAMO is approved. This includes aircraft type/series, aircraft registrations, owner/operator, contract references, State of Registry for CAMOs approved under Part-T, etc. The following is given as an example:

text: Aircraft Date Aircraft Aircraft Owner/ CAMO Part-T type/series included maintenance registration(s) operator contract State of Registry in the programme or reference scope of ‘generic’/baseline’ work maintenance programme

text: For air carriers licensed in accordance with

text: Regulation (EC) No 1008/2008

text: , reference can be made in this paragraph to the operations specifications or operations manual where the aircraft registration(s) is (are) listed. Depending on the number of aircraft, this paragraph may be updated as follows: 1) the paragraph is revised each time an aircraft is removed from or added to the list; 2) the paragraph is revised each time a type of aircraft or a significant number of aircraft is removed from or added to the list. In that case, it should be stated in the paragraph where the current list of aircraft managed is available for consultation.

text: (EU) No 1321/2014

text: 3. A new Part 6 is added to include the continuing airworthiness management procedures:

text: PART 6 — CONTINUING AIRWORTHINESS PROCEDURES FOR AIRCRAFT REFERRED TO IN T.A.101

text: 6.1 CONTINUING AIRWORTHINESS MANAGEMENT

text: 6.1.1 Aircraft continuing airworthiness records system

text: a) Aircraft continuing airworthiness records system and aircraft technical log This section should describe the system used by the CAMO to manage the aircraft’s continuing airworthiness records. b) Minimum equipment list (MEL) procedures This section should describe the specific responsibilities of the CAMO with regard to the issue, update, use and management of the MEL, if applicable to the aircraft.

text: 6.1.2 Aircraft maintenance programme

text: This paragraph should identify the State of Registry requirements for the maintenance programme, and should describe how the procedure established by the CAMO satisfies those requirements. This procedure should address the specific responsibilities of the CAMO with regard to the development, update, approval or acceptance and management of the maintenance programme. The sources for the maintenance programme and the mandatory tasks should be clearly identified.

text: 6.1.3 Time and continuing airworthiness records, responsibilities, retention and access

text: a) Recording of hours and cycles The recording of flight hours and cycles is essential for the planning of maintenance tasks. This paragraph should describe how the CAMO has access to the current flight hours and cycles information and how this information is processed in the organisation. b) Records This paragraph should describe in detail the type of documents that are required to be recorded and the recording-period requirements for each document. This can be provided by a table or series of tables that should include the following: — family of document (if necessary), — name of document, — retention period, — responsible person for retention, — place of retention. c) Preservation of records This paragraph should set out the means to protect the records from fire, floods, etc., as well as the specific procedures in place to guarantee that the records will not be altered during the retention period [especially for the computer records]. d) Transfer of continuing airworthiness records

text: (EU) No 1321/2014

text: Transfer-in: This paragraph should describe the procedure for the acquisition of the necessary continuing airworthiness records by the CAMO before leasing the aircraft and who is responsible for its implementation. The records should include the applicable status of compliance, release to service, approval and substantiating data for modifications and repairs, compliance with mandatory information, etc.

text: Transfer-out: This paragraph should describe the procedure for the transfer of records in case of transfer of the aircraft to another organisation. In particular, it should specify which records have to be transferred and who is responsible for the coordination [if necessary] of the transfer.

text: 6.1.4 Accomplishment and control of mandatory safety information (MSI) issued by the State of Registry and the Agency

text: This paragraph should identify the MSI requirements issued by the State of Registry and the Agency. Additionally, it should demonstrate that the CAMO has a comprehensive system for the management of MSI including airworthiness directives (ADs) issued by the State of Registry and the Agency. It may, for instance, include the following subparagraphs: a) MSI acquisition This paragraph should specify the sources for the MSI (State of Registry, manufacturer, type certificate holder, the Agency).

text: b) MSI decision

text: This paragraph should describe how and by whom the MSI is analysed. It should also describe the decisionmaking process in case the MSI of the State of Registry conflicts with the MSI issued by the Agency or any EU airworthiness or operational requirement. This paragraph should also describe what kind of information is provided to the contracted maintenance organisations in order to plan and perform the MSI. This should include, as necessary, a specific procedure for emergency MSI management.

text: c) MSI control

text: This paragraph should specify how the organisation manages to ensure that all the applicable MSI is performed and that they are performed on time. This should include a closed-loop system that allows verifying that for each new or revised MSI and for each aircraft: 1. the MSI is not applicable, or 2. if the MSI is applicable: — the MSI is not yet performed but the time limit is not overdue, — the MSI is performed, and any repetitive inspection is identified and performed. This may be a continuous process or may be based on scheduled reviews.

text: 6.1.5 Modifications and repairs

text: This paragraph should describe the State of Registry requirements for modifications and repairs. In particular, the process for the issue and approval of design data for repairs and modifications, the

text: (EU) No 1321/2014

text: classification of repairs and modifications, and the specific responsibilities of the CAMO with regard to the management and approval of any modification and repair before embodiment.

text: 6.1.6 Defect reports

text: a) Analysis This paragraph should describe how the defect reports provided by the contracted maintenance organisations are processed by the CAMO. The analysis of these reports should be taken into account for the maintenance programme evolution and non-mandatory modification policy. b) Liaison with type certificate holders and regulatory authorities Where a defect report shows that such defect is likely to occur to other aircraft, a liaison should be established with the type certificate holder and the authority that has issued the type certificate so that they may take all the necessary actions. c) Deferred defect policy This paragraph should describe the State of Registry requirements for deferred defects. Defects such as cracks and structural defects are not addressed by the MEL and the configuration deviation list (CDL). However, it may be necessary in certain cases to defer the rectification of a defect. This paragraph should establish the procedure to be followed in order to ensure that the deferment of any defect rectification will not lead to any safety concern. This will include appropriate liaison with the manufacturer and with the State of Registry.

text: 6.1.7 Reliability programmes

text: If a reliability programme is required, this paragraph should describe appropriately the management of a reliability programme. It should at least address the following: — extent and scope of the reliability programme, — specific organisational structure, duties and responsibilities, — establishment of reliability data, — analysis of the reliability data, — corrective action system (maintenance programme amendment), — scheduled reviews (reliability meetings with the participation of the competent authority). This paragraph may, where necessary, be subdivided as follows: a) airframe, b) propulsion, c) component.

text: (EU) No 1321/2014

text: 6.1.8 Pre-flight inspections

text: This paragraph should show how the scope and definition of pre-flight inspection, that is usually performed by the operating crew, is kept consistent with the scope of the maintenance performed by the contracted maintenance organisation. It should show how the evolution of the pre-flight inspection content and of the maintenance programme is concurrent. The following paragraphs are self-explanatory. Although these activities are normally not performed by continuing airworthiness personnel, they have been placed here in order to ensure that the related procedures are consistent with the continuing airworthiness activity procedures. a) Preparation of aircraft for flight, b) Subcontracted ground-handling function, c) Security of cargo and baggage loading, d) Control of refuelling, quantity/quality, e) Control of snow, ice, residues from de-icing or anti-icing operations, dust and sand contamination to an approved standard.

text: 6.1.9 Aircraft weighing

text: This paragraph should state in which occasion an aircraft has to be weighed taking into account the EU operational requirements and the State of Registry requirements. Weighing may also be required after a major modification. This paragraph should describe who performs the weighing, according to which procedure, who calculates the new weight and balance, and how the result is processed in the organisation.

text: 6.1.10 Check flight procedures

text: This paragraph should describe the criteria for performing a check flight, taking into account the State of Registry requirements and the applicable instructions for continued airworthiness (ICA). This paragraph should describe how the check flight procedure is established in order to meet its intended purpose, for instance after a heavy maintenance check, after engine or flight control removal installation, etc., and the release procedures to authorise such a check flight.

text: 6.2 CONTRACTED MAINTENANCE

text: 6.2.1 Procedures for contracted maintenance

text: a) Procedures for the development of maintenance contracts

text: This paragraph should describe the procedures that the organisation follows to develop maintenance contracts. The CAMO processes to implement the different elements described in Appendix XI to AMC M.A.708(c) should be described. In particular, it should cover the responsibilities, tasks and interaction with the contracted maintenance organisation. This paragraph should also describe, when necessary, the use of work orders for unscheduled line maintenance and component maintenance. The organisation may develop a work order template to ensure that the applicable elements of Appendix XI to AMC M.A.708(c) are considered. Such a template should be included in Part 5.1.

text: (EU) No 1321/2014

text: b) Maintenance contractor selection procedure

text: This paragraph should describe how a maintenance contractor is selected by the CAMO. The selection procedure should describe the verification that the maintenance organisation complies with Subpart E and also that the contractor has the industrial capacity to undertake the required maintenance. The selection procedure should preferably include a contract review process in order to ensure that: — the contract is comprehensive and it contains no gaps or unclear areas, — everyone involved in the contract [both at the CAMO and at the maintenance contractor] agrees with the terms of the contract and fully understands their responsibilities, — the functional responsibilities of all parties are clearly identified.

text: 6.2.2 Audit of aircraft

text: This paragraph should set out the procedures to perform an audit of an aircraft. It should describe the audit of aircraft before lease and the quality audit of aircraft during the lease period.

text: a) Audit of aircraft before lease

text: This audit should include an inspection of the aircraft and its records to ensure that the aircraft is airworthy and it complies with the State of Registry requirements, Part-T and any EU requirement applicable for the intended operation. This should include checking that all emergency and operational equipment as required by EU operational and airspace rules is available, that all required maintenance and MSI has been performed, that all modifications and repairs comply with the State of Registry requirements and they are recorded, etc.

text: b) Audit of aircraft during lease

text: This paragraph should set out the procedure to perform a quality audit of the aircraft during the lease period. This procedure may include: — compliance with approved procedures, — contracted maintenance is carried out in accordance with the contract, — continued compliance with Part-T.

text: SECTION I — GENERAL REQUIREMENTS

text: AMC1 TCO.105(a) Means of compliance

text: DEMONSTRATION OF COMPLIANCE In order to demonstrate that the Implementing Rules are met, a risk assessment should be completed and documented by the operator. The result of this risk assessment should demonstrate that an equivalent level of safety to that established by the Acceptable Means of Compliance (AMC) adopted by the Agency is accomplished.

text: GM1 TCO.105(a) Means of compliance

text: DEMONSTRATION OF COMPLIANCE Alternative means of compliance cannot be used to establish compliance with ICAO standards. TCO.105(a) refers to alternatives to the Acceptable Means of Compliance (AMC) adopted by the Agency, which detail how compliance with

text: Regulation (EC) No 216/2008

text: and Part-TCO may be established.

text: GM1 TCO.110 Mitigating measures

text: NOTIFIED DIFFERENCES TO ICAO STANDARDS (a) In case of notified differences to ICAO standards, the Agency will rely on the ICAO EFOD (Electronic Filing of Differences) database. (b) If the operator can demonstrate that it operates in compliance with the ICAO standard, despite a difference to ICAO standards notified by the State of operator or the State of registry, the operator is not required to propose mitigating measures to establish compliance with Part-TCO.

text: SECTION II — AIR OPERATIONS

text: AMC1 TCO.200(b) General requirements

text: DIFFERENCE BETWEEN OPERATIONS SPECIFICATIONS AND TCO AUTHORISATION Whenever there is a difference between the operations specifications associated to the Air Operator Certificate (AOC) and the specification associated to the TCO authorisation, the more limiting specification should apply.

text: GM1 TCO.200(b) General requirements

text: SPECIAL AUTHORISATION For certain operations a special authorisation is required. Special authorisations are those including, but not limited to, the carriage of dangerous goods, Low Visibility Operations (LVO), Reduced Vertical Separation Minima (RVSM), Extended Diversion Time Operations (EDTO), navigation specifications for Performance-Based Navigation operations (PBN), special approach authorisation and Minimum Navigation Performance Specifications (MNPS).

text: REPORTING OF ACCIDENTS The third country operator should report to the Agency all accidents involving aircraft used under its AOC, including aircraft that are not intended to be flown into, within or out of the territory subject to the provisions of the Treaty.

text: AMC1 TCO.210 Documents, manuals and records to be carried

text: GENERAL The documents, manuals and information may be available in a form other than on printed paper. Accessibility, usability and reliability should be assured.

text: GM1 TCO.210 Documents, manuals and records to be carried

text: GENERAL The third country operator is not required to carry the TCO authorisation on board its aircraft.

text: SECTION III — AUTHORISATION OF THIRD COUNTRY OPERATORS

text: GM1 TCO.300(a) Application for an authorisation

text: DEMONSTRATION OF INTENTION TO OPERATE The intention to operate is sufficiently substantiated when an operator can demonstrate a credible intention to conduct commercial operations into within or out of the territory subject to the provisions of the Treaty of the European Union. The operator may substantiate its intention by submitting its planned schedule for commercial air transport operations where this is possible or, by having aircraft available for intended flights in the case of unscheduled commercial air transport operations, or Europe being a geographical part of the operations specifications, or a statement from senior management that operations to the European Union are planned. However, other means of demonstrating a credible intention may be used.

text: GM1 TCO.300(b) Application for an authorisation

text: SUBMISSION OF APPLICATION FOR AN AUTHORISATION The application is considered to be submitted when the complete set of information required under TCO.300(c) has been received.

text: GM1 TCO.300(e)(1) Application for an authorisation

text: LEASE-IN OF AIRCRAFT NOT REGISTERED IN THE STATE OF THE OPERATOR (a) In the case of aircraft not registered in the State of the operator, the Agency may request the following information on the lease agreement: (1) the aircraft type, registration markings and serial number; (2) the name and address of the registered owner; (3) a copy of the valid certificate of airworthiness; (4) a copy of the lease agreement or description of the lease provisions, except financial arrangements; and (5) duration of the lease.

text: GM1 TCO.300(e)(2) Application for an authorisation

text: DOCUMENTS FOR AIRCRAFT NOT REGISTERED IN THE STATE OF THE OPERATOR Any agreement on the transfer of certain functions and duties between the State of registry and the State of operator that reliefs the State of registry of responsibility in respect of the functions and duties transferred, should be made available upon request.

text: GM1 TCO.315 Changes

text: CHANGES REQUIRING PRIOR APPROVAL Typical examples of changes that require a prior approval and affect the TCO authorisation or associated specification are listed below: (a) temporary or permanent cessation of operations; (b) the name of the operator; (c) the operator’s principal place of business;

text: (d) the operator’s scope of activities, e.g. extensions of privileges granted or restrictions imposed in the operations specifications to the AOC; (e) enforcement measures imposed by a civil aviation authority, including limitations and suspension; (f) new type of aircraft - different ICAO type designator - included in the fleet; (g) any takeover, merger, consolidation or other structural change to the operator’s organisation that could result in a change to the conditions and approvals as defined in the AOC or equivalent document.

text: AMC1 TCO.320 Continued validity

text: RE-SUBMITTANCE OF APPLICATION If an operator has not carried out a flight into within or out of the territory subject to the provisions of the Treaty within the last 24 months, the operator should resubmit an application for a TCO authorisation prior to recommencing operations to Europe.

text: AMC1 TCO.325 Findings

text: GENERAL Operators should identify and review the root cause(s) of the non-compliances for each confirmed finding and should ensure that the corrective action(s) taken are adequate to correct the non-compliance and to prevent re-occurrence. A corrective action plan lists the action(s) to eliminate or mitigate the root cause(s) and to prevent recurrence of an existing detected non-compliance or other undesirable condition or situation. Proper determination of the root cause is crucial for defining effective corrective actions to prevent reoccurrence.

text: SECTION I – GENERAL REQUIREMENTS

text: GM1 TCO.100 Scope

text: TECHNICAL LANDING The intended use of an aerodrome located in the territory subject to the provisions of the Treaties as a technical stop (e.g. for the purpose of refueling or crew change) as part of a CAT operation falls within the scope of TCO.100 and requires a TCO authorisation. ALTERNATE AERODROMES The selection and use of an aerodrome located in the territory subject to the provisions of the Treaties as an alternate aerodrome for the case of an in-flight diversion does not fall within the scope of TCO.100 and does not require a TCO authorisation. CODE-SHARE AGREEMENTS An aircraft used by a third country operator under a so-called code-share agreement with a Member State operator only falls within the scope of TCO.100 and is required to hold a TCO authorisation if the aircraft is used to perform commercial air transport to the territory subject to the provisions of the Treaties. WET-LEASE AGREEMENTS A third country operator that leases out aircraft under a wet-lease agreement falls within the scope of TCO.100 and is required to hold a TCO authorisation for aircraft under its air operator certificate (AOC) that are used to fly to the territory subject to the provisions of the Treaties. Third country operators currently not holding a valid TCO authorisation may wet-lease-in aircraft from other authorised third country operators or from Member State operators for the purpose of flights to the territory subject to the provisions of the Treaties. DRY-LEASE AGREEMENTS A third country operator that leases out aircraft under a dry-lease agreement does not fall within the scope of TCO.100 and does not need a TCO authorisation. The requirement to hold a TCO authorisation for aircraft used to fly to the territory subject to the provisions of the Treaties rests with the operator that has dry-leased-in the aircraft and is responsible for the operation and airworthiness under its AOC. OTHER TYPES OF OPERATION The following types of operations do not fall within the scope of TCO.100 and do not require a TCO authorisation: — Operations conducted by third country operators that are excluded from the scope of

text: Regulation (EU) 2018/1139

text: , such as flights referred to in

text: Article 2(3)

text: (a) of that Regulation (e.g. military, customs, police, search and rescue, firefighting), — General Aviation operations,

text: — Flights arranged by means of diplomatic clearances, — Any other type of operations that do not fall under the definition of commercial air transport (e.g. ferry flights to a maintenance basis or delivery flights). Specialised operations (e.g. hoist, photographic or surveillance operations) do not fall within the scope of TCO.100 and do not require a TCO authorisation but may require an approval from the Member State(s) concerned.

text: AMC1 TCO.105(a) Means of compliance

text: In order to demonstrate that the Implementing Rules are met, a risk assessment should be completed and documented by the operator. The result of this risk assessment should demonstrate that an equivalent level of safety to that established by the Acceptable Means of Compliance (AMC) adopted by the Agency is accomplished.

text: GM1 TCO.105(a) Means of compliance

text: Alternative means of compliance cannot be used to establish compliance with ICAO standards. TCO.105(a) refers to alternatives to the Acceptable Means of Compliance (AMC) adopted by the Agency, which detail how compliance with

text: Regulation (EC) No 216/2008

text: and Part-TCO may be established.

text: GM1 TCO.110 Mitigating measures

text: (a) In case of notified differences to ICAO standards, the Agency will rely on the ICAO EFOD (Electronic Filing of Differences) database. (b) If the operator can demonstrate that it operates in compliance with the ICAO standard, despite a difference to ICAO standards notified by the State of operator or the State of registry, the operator is not required to propose mitigating measures to establish compliance with Part-TCO.

text: SECTION II – AIR OPERATIONS

text: GM1 TCO.200(a) General requirements

text: When the State of the operator or the State of registry have notified differences to ICAO standards, the exemptions referred to in

text: Article 76(4) of Regulation (EU) 2018/1139

text: (the EASA Basic Regulation) may be used to grant an authorisation, provided that the conditions and criteria established therein are met.

text: AMC1 TCO.200(b) General requirements

text: Whenever there is a difference between the operations specifications associated with to the Aair Ooperator Ccertificate (AOC) and the specification associated to scope and privileges granted in the TCO authorisation, the more limiting specification one should apply.

text: GM1 TCO.200(b) General requirements

text: The scope and the privileges contained in the TCO authorisation include the list of aircraft that can be used under the TCO authorisation as well as any limitation to the TCO authorisation.

text: The operator may benefit from all approvals granted by its competent authority unless the Agency has imposed a limitation. Those approvals may include, but are For certain operations a special authorisation is required. Special authorisations are those including, but not limited to, the carriage of dangerous goods, low-visibility Low Visibility Ooperations (LVO), Rreduced Vvertical Sseparation Mminima (RVSM), Eextended Ddiversion Ttime Ooperations (EDTO), AR navigation specifications for Pperformance-Bbased Nnavigation (e.g. RNP-AR)(PBN), and use of electronic flight bag (EFB)special approach authorisation and Minimum Navigation Performance Specifications (MNPS).

text: GM1 TCO.200(c) General requirements

text: Certificate of Airworthiness of the Aircraft (CofA) means a Certificate of Airworthiness (CofA) issued in accordance with ICAO Annex 8.

text: AMC1 TCO.200(e) General requirements

text: The third country operator should report to the Agency all accidents involving aircraft used under its AOC, including aircraft that are not intended to be flown into, within or out of the territory subject to the provisions of the Treaty.

text: SECTION III – AUTHORISATION OF THIRD COUNTRY OPERATORS

text: The intention to operate is sufficiently substantiated when an operator can demonstrate a credible intention to conduct commercial operations into, within or out of the territory subject to the provisions of the Treaties Treaty of the European Union. The operator may substantiate its intention by submitting its planned schedule for commercial air transport operations where this is possible or, by having aircraft available for intended flights in the case of unscheduled commercial air transport operations, or Europe being a geographical part of the operations specifications, or a statement from senior management that operations to the European Union are planned. However, other means of demonstrating a credible intention may be used.

text: When the third country operator submits an application for an authorisation, the Agency will follow the process established in ART.200 to ART.210. The first step of the process is for EASA to evaluate the eligibility of the operator and verify the completeness of the information received. The operator should be aware that, in accordance with ART.200(b), the application is only considered to be submitted, and the timeframe for EASA’s assessment will only start, once the complete set of information required under TCO.300(c) has been received. Once the application is considered submitted, EASA will register the operator in its dedicated TCO web-application and will request the operator to fill in an electronic questionnaire. EASA will complete its assessment within the timeframes stipulated in ART.200(b). The application is considered to be submitted when the complete set of information required under TCO.300(c) has been received.

text: GM1 TCO.300(d) Application for an authorisation

text: The Agency may request a courtesy translation of certain (parts of) documents that are written in a language other than English. Operators should preferably submit documents in a format that is electronically searchable and translatable by use of online tools.

text: Any agreement on the transfer of certain functions and duties between the State of registry and the State of operator that reliefs relieves the State of registry of responsibility in respect of the functions and duties transferred, should be made available upon request.

text: AMC1 TCO.305 One-off notification flights

text: The application for a one-off notification flight should include: (a) a valid AOC and the associated operations specifications; (b) a valid CofA for the aircraft intended to be operated; (c) information about the character and purpose of the operation; and (d) information about planned destinations.

text: GM1 TCO.315 Changes

text: Typical examples of changes that require a prior approval by the Agency pursuant to TCO.315(b) are: (a) the addition of a new type of aircraft (defined as an aircraft with different ICAO type designator) to the TCO authorisation, unless agreed otherwise under ART.210(c); (b) the operator’s principal place of business, when the operator relocates to a different State; and (c) any takeover, merger, consolidation or other structural change to the operator’s organisation that could result in a change to the conditions and approvals as defined in the AOC or equivalent.

text: Typical examples of changes that do not require a prior approval, but which have to be notified to the Agency pursuant to TCO.315(c) are: (a) temporary or permanent cessation of operations; (b) the name of the operator; (c) the operator’s principal place of business within the same State; (d) the number of the AOC or that of the equivalent document; (e) enforcement measures imposed by a civil aviation authority, including limitations and suspension; and (f) the operator’s scope of activities, e.g. extensions of privileges granted or restrictions imposed in the operations specifications to the AOC. Typical examples of changes that require a prior approval and affect the TCO authorisation or associated specification are listed below:

text: (a) temporary or permanent cessation of operations; (b) the name of the operator; (c) the operator’s principal place of business; (d) the operator’s scope of activities, e.g. extensions of privileges granted or restrictions imposed in the operations specifications to the AOC; (e) enforcement measures imposed by a civil aviation authority, including limitations and suspension; (f) new type of aircraft - different ICAO type designator - included in the fleet; (g) any takeover, merger, consolidation or other structural change to the operator’s organisation that could result in a change to the conditions and approvals as defined in the AOC or equivalent document.

text: AMC1 TCO.320 Continued validity

text: If an operator has not carried out a flight into within or out of the territory subject to the provisions of the Treaty within the last 24 months, the operator should resubmit an application for a TCO authorisation prior to recommencing operations to Europe.

text: AMC1 UAS.LUC.060 Privileges of an LUC holder

text: SCOPE OF PRIVILEGES

text: Within the terms of its approval, the LUC holder should be able: (a) without prior declaration to the competent authority, to authorise its own operations based on an STS; and (b) without prior approval of the competent authority, to authorise one or more of the following types of own operations: (1) one based on a PDRA that requires an authorisation; (2) one based on one or more modifications of an STS (variants), which does not involve changes in the ConOps, the category of UAS used or the competencies of the remote pilots; or (3) one that does not correspond to a PDRA, but falls within a type of activity already performed by the UAS operator. In case of UAS operations that are conducted at SAIL V and VI, the competent authority requires the LUC holder to use a UAS with an EASA TC. In case of UAS operations that are conducted at SAIL III and IV, the competent authority specifies if the LUC holder is required to use a UAS with an EASA TC.

text: GM1 UAS.LUC.060 Privileges of an LUC holder

text: For the purpose of granting privileges to LUC applicants, the competent authority may apply a gradual approach. Depending on the UAS operator’s past safety performance and safety record over a defined period of time (e.g. the previous 6 months), the competent authority may expand the scope of the UAS operator’s privileges. The gradual approach should not be understood as preventing the competent authority from granting privileges with a greater scope to a first-time LUC applicant who has an adequate structure and competent personnel, an effective safety management system and has demonstrated a good compliance disposition. For operations that are conducted at SAIL III and IV, and to facilitate harmonisation among EASA Member States, EASA recommends that the competent authority always requires LUC holders to use a UAS with an EASA TC.
