How is an aircraft added to an operating certificate? |
Amend the Operations Manual. Complete the amendment application form for the issuing of an operator's certificate, as well as the statement of compliance by the responsible person. Application forms are available from the Flight Operations Department section on the SACAA website. Ensure that the aircraft is only on two other AOC's. Pay the application fees (as stated in Regulation I87), including the fee for the approval of a Lease Agreement if required. Attach copies of all relevant required documents: Cof A, Cof R, Insurance, Lease agreements, AMO details, Release to Service and Radio licence as stipulated on the application form. If required for the aircraft type, submit an MEL in duplicate for approval. If the aircraft is a new type to the Operator contact the relevant Flight Operations Line Manager.ie Part 121, Part 135 and part 127. He/she will set up a meeting to inform the client of the Five phases requirements. An established operator will join the process at Phase 3, Document verification.
