Not sure where this post is best suited, but I thought Id try here. Im not a proffesional pilot (yet
) but my University degree is Aircraft Engineering with Pilot Studies, and so we are given ground schooling to ATPL standard
I have a few questions regarding the CAA that I havnt managed to find answers to
What various legislation does the CAA derive authority and guidance from?
I could only think of the Civil Aviation Act, then I thought the Dangerous Goods Act but isnt Dangerous goods covered in the Civil Aviation Act? I thought everything was covered in there
The functions charged to the CAA by the legislation?
The regulation of all aspects of aviation in the UK?
The Core Operational Divisions and Departments of the CAA Safety Regulation Group?
Would this be things like: Aerodrome Standards, Air Traffic Services, Aircraft Registration, Applications and Certificates, Airworthiness, Environmental, Licensing, Medical and Safety Initiative Divisions?
The Role of the CAA in the work of the JAA and EASA?
Not too sure on how I would go about describing this lot
Many Thanks in advance
