This is a targeted CASA approval allowing a single Australian‑registered aircraft (VH‑CAH) to use Oxymizer nasal‑cannula individual oxygen units, issued by a CASA delegate. It conditions use on minimum flow rates (≥0.3 L/min at 10,000 ft, increasing 0.1 L/min per 2,000 ft up to 18,000 ft) and requires any nose‑and‑mouth oxygen units onboard to meet Civil Aviation Orders section 108.26. The operator must supply and maintain compliant equipment.
