Reinforced Cockpit door
I have a copy of FAA Notice N8400-61 which deals with reinforced cockpit door for Cargo Aircraft.
I cannot find the equivalent document for JAR.
Does anyone have any info on the actual JAR requirement for Cargo aircraft.
The FAA one basically says you can either fit the reinforced door or have security procedure in place agreed with the TSA.
My initial info is that it is not a hard JAR requirement but is an NCAA requirement.

Reinforced cockpit door?
Doubt very much theres a requirement under JAR for reinforced cockpit doors to cargo aircraft as current flying a heavy turbo-prop in E Class Config and we only have a flimsy smoke curtain between us and the cargo - not even a door!

VP thanks for the info
I guess that curtain's not bullt proof then ?
The problem with FAR and JAR is that there is not a section for just cargo aircraft.
You have to fight your way among all the pax aircraft stuff and dig out stuff that applies to cargo only.
With increasing dedicated cargo aircraft it would be worthwhile to address them in a separate section.

Well an obvious guess is a bunch of terrorists having the seemingly bright idea of stowing away in a ULD, breaking out in-flight and then commandering the aircraft to use as a guided missle yet again. There, said it - so it won't ever happen.
