proposed airframe/engine combination has been type design approved for at least the EDTO time requested; and

(b) except if clause 7 applies — the CMP standards document of the proposed airframe/engine combination supports the EDTO time requested; and

(c) the AOC holder has an approved operations training program that specifically addresses significant operational factors with respect to the EDTO time requested; and

(d) except if clause 7 applies — the AOC holder has an approved system of maintenance that specifically addresses significant maintenance factors with respect to the EDTO time requested; and

(e) the AOC holder has an approved MEL appropriate to the EDTO time requested; and

(f) the time limit specified in the AFM for the aeroplane's most time-limited system will not be less than the EDTO time requested, based on a diversion time (in ISA and still air conditions) at the 1 engine inoperative cruise speed plus a 15 minute allowance for holding, approach and landing.

       (3) The AOC holder must give CASA details of any changes or amendments to flight manuals, operations manuals, maintenance requirements, or safety operational specifications necessitated by the proposed EDTO.

5 Additional requirements for EDTO approvals — 180 to 240 minutes, twin-engine

       (1)This clause applies to applications for EDTO approvals to conduct EDTO in twin turbine-engined aeroplanes on a route containing a point more than 180 minutes but not more than 240 minutes from an adequate aerodrome at 1 engine inoperative cruise speed (in ISA and still air conditions).

       (2) CASA may only give the approval if:

(a) for the airframe/engine combination listed in the application the AOC holder holds a current EDTO approval under clause 4 for a route containing a point not more than 180 minutes from an adequate aerodrome at 1 engine inoperative cruise speed (in ISA and still air conditions); and

(b) in addition to the MEL limitations for the current approval mentioned in paragraph (a), the following systems are serviceable for dispatch:

           (i) FQIS; and

           (ii) if required for EDTO — the APU (including electrical and pneumatic supply to its designated capability); and

           (iii) the auto throttle system; and

           (iv) a communication system, in addition to any mentioned in the AIP, capable of providing direct communication of landline voice quality between the flight crew and air traffic services, and the flight crew and the operator.

       (3)The EDTO approval requirements mentioned in subclauses 4 (2) and 4 (3) also apply for this clause.

6 Additional requirements for EDTO approvals — more than 240 minutes, twin-engine

       (1)This clause applies to applications for EDTO approvals for EDTO in twin turbine-engined aeroplanes on a route containing a point more than 240 minutes from an adequate aerodrome at 1 engine inoperative cruise speed
