AeroEx is promoting its support services for EASA Part-NCC (non-commercial operations with complex aircraft) compliance. The deadline is August 25. AeroEx can help in the initial phase with familiarization, gap analysis, manual preparation and assistance in obtaining specific approvals (RVSM, for example). The Buchs, Switzerland-based company (Booth S132) can also provide continuing compliance support.
  
As opposed to a certification basis, Part-NCC is a declarative system. The operator need only declare its competence to operate under NCC and will be able to start operating the next day. EASA officials believe the effort is significantly less onerous than obtaining an aircraft operator certificate (AOC).
  
Among exempt aircraft are light twin turboprops with an mtow less than 5.7 metric tons (12,500 pounds) and all turboprop singles.
