Rather than duplicate requirements, CASA cancelled its own directive so operators only need to follow the European standard.\n\n**Key date:** The cancellation took effect on 9 February 2010."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/ad-ecureuil-101-amdt-1-hoist-operator-s-belt-snap-hook-cancelled","history":"/api/acts/ad-ecureuil-101-amdt-1-hoist-operator-s-belt-snap-hook-cancelled/history","analysis":"/api/acts/ad-ecureuil-101-amdt-1-hoist-operator-s-belt-snap-hook-cancelled/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/ad-ecureuil-101-amdt-1-hoist-operator-s-belt-snap-hook-cancelled/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/ad-ecureuil-101-amdt-1-hoist-operator-s-belt-snap-hook-cancelled/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/ad-ecureuil-101-amdt-1-hoist-operator-s-belt-snap-hook-cancelled/documents"}}
