Hi Aussie-Bob
Thanks Owen, but still none the wiser as to my questions ...
Quote:
Can anyone tell me: If I am flying an aeroplane with a calendar expired engine that is running on an extension can I still fly it?
Quote:
If the same aircraft has a calendar expired engine that is perfectly good at the next annual will an extension be possible?
We have asked CASA these questions, only to get an answer back of 'Awaiting a reply from standards" on this, and lots of other questions. If you read the amendments, it can even make casa's own maintenance system invalid. (Sched5)
Its been two days now, and still no reply from casa, they can't tell us if we are violating the regulations by signing out aircraft that are affected so who knows what's going on....
Oh, and if you haven't had your pitot/static system checked in the last two years (Have been previously using the 3yr requirements), according to casa your grounded. Although they don't seem keen to pass that onto the aircraft owners...
