CASA EX137/14 - Repeal — exemptions for helicopters used in certain off-shore operations

What this does This instrument cancels (repeals) two old rules — CASA 04/95 and CASA 12/95 — that gave special exemptions to helicopters used in offshore operations (such as flying to oil rigs or similar maritime facilities).

Who it affects Helicopter operators who were relying on these specific exemptions to avoid certain standard aviation safety regulations.

Why it matters Without these exemptions, affected helicopter operators must now comply with the standard Civil Aviation Safety Regulations instead of the previous special permissions. This means stricter adherence to normal safety rules for offshore flights.

Key details

Effective date: The day it was registered (23 October 2014)
Action taken: Complete removal of the two exemption instruments — no replacement rules are introduced
