This direction requires V Australia (Aviation Reference No. 768593) to carry out every Airworthiness Directive (AD) issued by the aircraft’s State of Design for Boeing B777s and any installed aeronautical product within each AD’s compliance time, and to certify completion as if each were an Australian AD. CASA may accept alternative means of compliance approved by the State of Design and may approve written non‑compliance when supported by a safety justification. The operator bears the compliance and certification costs; CASA decides on acceptances and conditions (s3(a)–(d); Notes 1–2).
