Description
The general aviation industry in Australia has been asking for several years for less complex maintenance rules that reduce costs. This includes finalizing a revised Part 43 governing aircraft in private and aerial work operations. The objective is to base the new rules on U.S. FAR Part 43. The proposal is intended to simplify compliance, provide business opportunities, and reduce red tape for private and aerial work operators. While Part 43 will provide additional flexibility for the private GA sector the regulation does not change the more-stringent maintenance requirements for aircraft used for air taxi operations, even if only occasionally. Comments are due June 19, 2022.
