Interpretations in some countries, since no comments have (yet) been issued, are getting absurd. The funny (not!) part starts where the English version has been translated into French, this version being "tuned" by the respective CAA and legislator to look like a law, the now available basic document made available to crew in English language with all the errors and "improving" thoughts for multiple interpretations.
- ah! Now I understand. It is not the regulations, it is, as ever, that well-known EU-wide 'implementation' of them.
. Bad luck all.
Have you tried EU-OPS themselves? Might be a waste of time, but you never know.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
Done at Brussels, 20 August 2008.
