"A way but not the only way to comply"
The above quote only applies to a few in CASA. The rest must read CAO 82.1
2.5 For the purposes of subregulations 215 (3) and (6) of the Civil Aviation Regulations 1988, each operator must include in the operator’s operations manual so much of the information set out in CASA’s publication ‘Guide to the preparation of Operations Manuals’ that is relevant to the operator’s operations and must provide copies of the manual to all operating crew members employed by the operator.
The other requirement is that the OM has comply with the Compliance Statement. The Compliance Statement really determines what goes in an OM.
In practice, we could do away with the CAAP and allow operators to determine a logical format for the OM based on their particular operation.
In the CAAP Headings appear more than once - Bird/animal and references to Annexes that do not exist.
Must have missed that one. Is it law yet?
