Word on the street is Jetstar are about to send a heap of cadets over to NZ with less than the required hours to operate under the NZCAA rules for part 121 operation. Hmmm very naughty Brucie, this could potentially hurt!
Operating minimums for part 121 under NZCAA rules are 500hrs TT of which 100hrs must be ATO. Rules are as follows:
c) ANZA activities in New Zealand authorised by Australian
AOCs with ANZA privileges.
Section 28BD Compliance with civil aviation law
(1) The holder of an AOC must comply with all requirements of this
Act, the regulations and the Civil Aviation Orders that apply to the
holder.
(2) The holder of an Australian AOC with ANZA privileges must
comply with all requirements of the Civil Aviation Act 1990 of
New Zealand, and of the regulations and rules under that Act, that
apply to the holder in relation to the ANZA activities in New
Zealand authorised by the AOC.
Any ideas how Jetstar get around this rule? This could be another Singapore, oh dear Bruce, things not working out?
