Plain English Summary

3/10 complexity

This instrument gives Air Traffic Services (ATS) providers (air traffic controllers) a temporary exemption from specific safety standards when conducting Land and Hold Short Operations (LAHSO).

Land and Hold Short Operations are procedures where a landing aircraft stops before a designated point on the runway, allowing other aircraft to use the remaining runway space or cross it.

Normally, ATS providers must comply with paragraph 172.065(1)(a) of the Civil Aviation Safety Regulations 1998, which requires adherence to technical standards in the Manual of Standards Part 172. This instrument lifts that requirement, but only:

For Airbus A320 aircraft operated by Air New Zealand
Regarding three specific technical standards (sections 10.13.5.3, 10.13.5.4, and 10.13.5.7 of the Manual of Standards Part 172)

The exemption replaces a previous exemption (CASA EX62/07) and applies for a limited duration.
