JAR 25 covers Transport category airplanes (not excluding turbo-props)
In more general terms, one might say that JAR23 are Single Pilot Aircraft (SPA) whereas JAR25 covers Multi Pilot Aircraft (MPA).
Where does this come from?
Is the Beech 1900C and/or 1900D JAR 25??
It is listed as FAR 25 and FAR 23 on the FAA website.
It is MTOW 7765kg. 19 passengers. Certified for single pilot I believe, although we operate as 2 crew.
It meets all the performance criteria for JAR 25.
What is the defintion of Transport vs Commuter category?
Searches on the JAA, EASA and CAA websites have me going round in circles!
Many thanks for replies.
