EASA 12 year engine rule for instructional (commercial) flight
Hi,
no doubt been discussed before but I could not find a thread history. (please point me to one if so)
What are the latest rules for using an EASA CofA aircaft for instructional flights for reward. Not private owner training, but as a generally available aircraft for training (for example loaned to a flying school).
Specifically as regards engine being used significantly beyond the manufacturer "recommended" TBO period . For example a Lycoming O320A2B that's well beyond 12 years since new/overhaul.
I'm not sure what the rules are these days for this, what with the various ongoing changes... AMP etc. I know they have been that beyond 12 years (recommended TBO period) you'd have to rip out a perfectly good engine.
Anyone with any simple insight or pointers towards the relevant regs. Thanks in advance.
