Plain English Summary

2/10 complexity

Rossair Charter Pty Ltd’s Cessna C441 Conquest II (VH‑XMJ) is temporarily exempted from the scheduled aircraft reweigh requirement for about six weeks (mid‑July to end‑August 2008), giving the operator short-term relief from logistical delays.

Safety is preserved: if VH‑XMJ reaches 10,234.2 total flight hours before being reweighed, it must be grounded unless a reweigh or weight‑record check confirms it remains within regulatory limits.
