In accordance with Article 4(3) of the basic Regulation,
Member States communicated to the Commission infor-
mation that is relevant in the context of updating the
Community list. On this basis, the Commission should
decide to update the Community list on its own initiative
or at the request of Member States.

In accordance with Article 7 of the basic Regulation and
Article 4 of Regulation (EC) No 473/2006,
the
Commission informed all air carriers concerned either
directly or, when this was not practicable, through the
authorities responsible for their regulatory oversight, indi-
cating the essential facts and considerations which would
form the basis for a decision to impose on them an
operating ban within the Community or to modify the
conditions of an operating ban imposed on an air carrier
which is included in the Community list.

In accordance with Article 7 of the basic Regulation and
Article 4 of Regulation (EC) No 473/2006, opportunity
was given by the Commission to the air carriers
the documents provided by
concerned to consult
Member States,
to submit written comments and to
make an oral presentation to the Commission within
10 working days and to the Air Safety Committee (5).

In accordance with Article 3 of Regulation (EC) No
473/2006, the authorities with responsibility for regu-
latory oversight over the air carriers concerned have
been consulted by the Commission as well as,
in
specific cases, by some Member States.

Dairo Air Services and DAS Air Cargo

There is evidence that the operator DAS Air Cargo (DAZ)

same aircraft. Therefore, any measure decided with regard
to DSR should equally be applicable to DAZ.

In addition, a majority of carriers visited by the European

issued by Kyrgyz Republic, did not have their

requirements of Annex 6 to the Chicago
to the
Convention.

(15) On the basis of the common criteria, it is assessed that
all air carriers certified in Kyrgyz Republic do not meet
the relevant safety standards and therefore they should be
subject to an operating ban and included in Annex A.

The UK Civil Aviation Authority performed an inspection
on Dairo Air Services and Das Air Cargo, which revealed
that between 21 April and 25 July 2006 aircraft operated
by the two air carriers were being maintained by a main-
tenance organisation without a proper approval,
thus
constituting a serious safety deficiency.

(11) DSR demonstrated a lack of transparency and adequate
and timely communication in response to an enquiry by
the civil aviation authority of the Netherlands regarding
the safety aspect of its operation, as demonstrated by the
absence of an adequate and timely reply to the corre-
spondence sent by this Member State.

(12) On the basis of the common criteria, it is assessed that
Dairo Air Services and DAS Air Cargo do not fully meet
the relevant safety standards, and therefore should be
included in Annex A.

In reply to an inquiry by the civil aviation authority of
France, Air Service Comores indicated that an action plan
had been established in order to correct the safety defi-
ciencies identified during ramp inspections. However,
there is still no evidence of the implementation of an
appropriate action plan for all operations of Air Service
Comores.

The authorities of Comoros with responsibility for regu-
latory oversight of Air Service Comores have provided
the Civil Aviation Authorities of France with sufficient
information about the safety of operations with respect
to the specific aircraft LET 410 UVP with registration
mark D6-CAM.

Therefore, on the basis of the common criteria,
it is
assessed that Air Service Comores meets the relevant
safety standards only for
flights operated with the
aircraft LET 410 UVP with registration mark D6-CAM.
Consequently Air Service Comores should be subject to
operational
restrictions and should be moved from
Annex A to Annex B.

Following the invitation of the air carrier, a team of

September 2006. The report from this mission shows
that while significant progress has been made by the
carrier following its inclusion in the Community list,
substantial safety deficiencies still remain to be rectified.

(33) Whilst acknowledging the effort made by the carrier
towards achieving the level of progress noted in the
report, as well as the strong disposition towards co-
operation shown both by the carrier and the Thai
Department of Civil Aviation, a decision to withdraw
Phuket Air from the EC list is still considered to be

The air carrier formerly known as Helios Airways now
operates as A Jet Aviation. Indeed the Air Operator Certi-
ficate of Helios Airways has been subject to a variation
consisting in a change of name to A Jet Aviation (1).

(1) Initially, Helios Airways intended to set up a new legal entity called
A Jet and transfer all its assets to the new company. A Jet would
operate using the procedures, aircraft,
facilities, personnel and
management structure already accepted by the Department of Civil
Aviation for Helios. Consequently, a full AOC issue process was
started. Nevertheless, Helios changed its name on the Registry of
Companies to A Jet. The AOC and other applicable approval
documents have been amended to reflect the new name.

in the area of operational requirements (JAR-OPS and JAR-FCL), the
JAA have carried out a visit on 6 July 2006; also, the competent
