Plain English Summary

2/10 complexity

This delegated CASA approval lets aircraft VH-LLV use Oxymizer nasal‑cannula oxygen units, provided they meet an altitude‑indexed minimum flow schedule and any other nose‑and‑mouth oxygen units on board comply with specified Civil Aviation Orders.

It affects the aircraft owner/operator and equipment suppliers, who must supply, verify and maintain devices to the flow‑rate and CAO requirements—creating compliance, testing and equipment costs while authorising a specific device for that aircraft.
