What this does

This instrument grants exemptions for small Australian aircraft (weighing less than 5.7 tonnes) operating only within Australia from certain rules about registration markings and identification plates.

Key exemptions

Wing markings: Aircraft are exempt from the requirement to display registration markings on the underside of the wings (though they must still display them elsewhere as required by other rules).
Identification plates: Instead of carrying the standard identification plates normally required, aircraft may carry a manufacturer's data plate (as specified in regulation 21.820 of the Civil Aviation Safety Regulations 1998).
Marking specifications: Aircraft are exempt from certain specific rules about the size and location of registration markings, provided the markings are at least 150 millimetres high.

Who it affects

Owners and operators of Australian fixed-wing aircraft and helicopters (rotorcraft) with a maximum take-off weight under 5,700 kg that operate wholly within Australian territory.
