Plain English Summary

2/10 complexity

What this does: This instrument acts as a temporary permission slip for certain aircraft parts makers. Normally, manufacturing modification or replacement parts for certified aircraft requires a specific production approval (a production certificate). This exemption lets some manufacturers bypass that requirement, but only if they follow strict rules.

Who it affects: Manufacturers who produce parts for type certificated aircraft (aircraft that have official design approval from aviation authorities), aircraft engines or propellers—but who do not already hold the production certificate normally required under regulation 21.303(1).

The exemption: Eligible manufacturers are excused from the usual prohibition on producing parts without a production certificate.

The catch (condition): They cannot use any manufacturing process they like. They must use a production method that CASA (the Civil Aviation Safety Authority) has specifically approved under regulation 21.305(e).

Time limit: This was a temporary exemption only—it automatically expired after October 2009.
