Hi! UK Opertors.
Here's the latest CAA Edict :-
Approval Under a Derogation Authorised Pursuant to Article 8(3) of Council
Regulation (EEC) No. 3922/1991 In Respect of OPS 1.652(C) Sensitive Pressure
Altimeter Having Counter Drum-pointer or Equivalent Presentation
1) A Commission Decision dated 3 March 2010 authorises the United Kingdom to
derogate
from Annex III of Council Regulation (EC) No. 3922/1991 ("EU-OPS") with
respect to
OPS 1.652(c). The Commission Decision is annexed to this approval.
2) In accordance with that Commission Decision and pursuant to article 8(3)
of Council
Regulation (EEC) No. 3922/1991, the Civil Aviation Authority on behalf of
the United
Kingdom approves, in derogation from the provisions of OPS 1.652(c), any
operator
operating under an Air Operator's Certificate issued in accordance with
EU-OPS to
operate at or below 10,000 feet/flight level 100 with aeroplanes equipped
with two
sensitive pressure altimeters calibrated in feet with sub-scale settings,
calibrated in
hetropascals/millibars, adjusted for any barometric pressure likely to be
set during flight
without having counter drum-pointer or equivalent presentation.
3) This approval is granted subject to the operator implementing measures
acceptable to
the Civil Aviation Authority to ensure that flight crews are aware of and
trained to read
correctly the type of altimeters referred to in paragraph 2 in normal and
abnormal
circumstances.
4) This approval shall have effect from the date hereof, until varied,
suspended or revoked.
G B Parker
For the Civil Aviation Authority
16 March
Can anyone please enlighten me as to what the "bare bones" of this means,
please.
Regards
Bob Harrison G-PTAG

Hi Bob,
It means that UK Public Transport Operators have an exemption to operate
with the older altimeters that are not approved under JAR OPS.
The altimeters that comply with ICAO and JAR OPS 1 are the counter
drum-pointer display which display digital altitude with the resolution of
100ft.
What does it mean to you.......
Nothing,
You are not public transport operating under an Air Operators Certificate.
You do not operate your aircraft under JAR OPS...... there's lucky.
Regards,
Mike

Ah!
A perfect example of how a common language divides the UK and the
US!!!
If even Englishmen in the UK can't understand it, what are those Brussellonians
up to?

Hi Raimo,
Are you saying that Finnish people understand this legal gibberish??
I have a number of friends in Helsinki and while they usually understand
me, I don't believe they would handle BrusX any better than I.

no, I was trying to say "this legal gibberish" must have been produced by some Finnish bureaucrat in Bryssel...
They are very talent doing that, they can even produce Finnish text that nobody understands here. Ask your friends in Helsinki...
