Hi Everyone,
I assume that the 'Ops' forum is the right palce to ask this question - forgive me if not, I am new to all this...
I understand that an Air Operators Certificate is required for an airline wishing to transport passengers etc, and the two types of AOC (A and B) that can be issued (found that on CAA website), but I am stuck on the finer details of the restrictions of these certificates and how they vary from country to country.
Basically, what areas are governed/restricted by the specific company's AOC? Engineering practices? Crewing I think? I'm a bit confused! I am keen to find out in which areas an AOC from a UK operator, for example, will differ from that of a French operator... Or will it?
Can anyone point me in the right direction of a place I can find such info or offer some clarification?
Thanks a lot
Jake
