Plain English Summary

2/10 complexity

This instrument gives relief to small Australian fixed-wing aircraft and helicopters under 5.7 tonnes that operate only within Australia by relaxing where and how their registration and identity must be displayed.

It allows registration on the underside of the port wing (or across both undersides), accepts the manufacturer’s data plate instead of a specific metal ID plate, and sets a minimum character height of 150 mm — reducing cost and administrative burden for owners and operators.
