Foreword

The Civil Aviation Safety Authority is responsible under section 9(1)(c) of the Civil Aviation Act 1988 for developing and promulgating appropriate, clear and concise aviation safety standards.

CASA is also responsible under section 9(2)(b) and section 16 of the Act for promoting full and effective consultation and communication with all interested parties on aviation safety issues, and must, in performing its functions and exercising its powers, where appropriate, consult with government, commercial, industrial, consumer and other relevant bodies and organisations.

The Manual of Standards (MOS) is the means CASA uses in meeting its responsibilities under the Act for promulgating aviation safety standards. The MOS prescribes the detailed technical material (aviation safety standards) that is determined to be necessary for the safety of air navigation.

The MOS is referenced in the particular regulation. You should refer to the applicable provisions of the Civil Aviation Act and Civil Aviation Safety Regulations, together with this manual, to ascertain the requirements of, and the obligations imposed by or under, the civil aviation legislation.

The MOS is a disallowable legislative instrument. This means that it is a legislative instrument that becomes effective following registration on the Federal Register of Legislative Instruments (FRLI) and it must be tabled in both Houses of Parliament within 6 sitting days following registration and is subject to scrutiny and disallowance by Parliament.

The responsibility for the technical matters within this Manual of Standards (MOS) is the responsibility of the Aviation Safety Standards Division.

Readers should forward advice of errors, inconsistencies or suggestions for improvement to this manual to the Head, Standards Administration & Support Branch, Aviation Safety Standards, CASA (contact and address details are given on the inside front cover).

The MOS is issued and amended under the authority of the Director of Aviation Safety.

Signed:

Bruce Byron
