Plain English Summary

2/10 complexity

This instrument exempts Class A aircraft (and their owners, operators and pilots) from the regulation requiring "time-in-service" to be recorded on maintenance release documents, allowing use of an approved alternative flight-time recording method instead. Operators must have that method in their approved maintenance system and document it in their maintenance control manual. It also removes overlapping requirements in Civil Aviation Order 100.5. The change eases paperwork while keeping continuing airworthiness safeguards.
