How many aircraft have you sent back to the USA I have forgotten how many ive sent back and yes there is a lot of work that has to be carried out to return one. Why is that. Because it dosent matter a dame what the USA require when the aircraft is on the Aust reg. Its that simple.
How many CofA have you done. Me too many. Yes while the Type Cert is now reconized by CASA there is still a whole lot of work that has to be carried out before you can put the VH on the side of the aircraft.
So as I said it don't mean a dame what other countrys do in regards to maintenance it only matter whats on the LBS its that simple.
Now go look at
CAAP 42B-1(1)
