operator has the capability to ensure that the following equipment and systems of an aeroplane, the subject of an application for EDTO approval, would be serviceable for dispatch on an EDTO flight under the approval:
 (a) for a 2-engine aeroplane—one-engine-inoperative auto-land capability, if flight planning for an EDTO en-route alternate aerodrome is predicated on the use of auto-land;
 (b) if operating in the polar region—an automated external defibrillator.
 (2) CASA must also be satisfied that the operator has the capability to ensure:
 (a) the fuel quantity indicating system and the cargo fire suppression system of the aeroplane would be serviceable for dispatch for the flight; and
 (b) operating the aeroplane with one or both of those systems unserviceable would be permitted by the MEL for the aeroplane and any conditions and limitations of the MEL relating to the unserviceability could be complied with.

Diversion time more than 180 minutes
 (3) Subsection (4) applies if an application for EDTO approval requests a diversion time of more than 180 minutes.
 (4) CASA must be satisfied that the operator has the capability to ensure that the following systems of the aeroplane would be serviceable for dispatch on an EDTO flight under the approval:
 (a) subject to subsection (5), the auxiliary power unit, including electrical and pneumatic supply to its designated capability;
 (b) if the aeroplane is a 2‑engine aeroplane—the auto‑throttle system;
 (c) a communication system, in addition to any such equipment required for the aeroplane under section 11.08, that is capable of providing effective direct communication (for example, by voice, SATCOM/SATVOICE or ACARS) between the flight crew and air traffic services, and between the flight crew and either or both the operations control and flight dispatcher.
 (5) Paragraph (4)(a) does not apply if an auxiliary power unit:
 (a) for a 2-engine aeroplane—is not required by the type design and certification documents for the aeroplane require it to have an auxiliary power unit for the conduct of EDTO flights; or
 (b) for a 3- or 4‑engine aeroplane—is not required:
 (i) by the aeroplane manufacturer for one-engine-inoperative procedures or depressurisation procedures; or
 (ii) for a time-limiting EDTO significant system (if any).

       2.06  Diversion time for 2-engine aeroplanes
        (1) This section applies to an application to conduct extended diversion time operations using a 2-engine aeroplane.
 (2) The maximum diversion time that can be approved for the aeroplane must not exceed the most limiting of the following time limits:
 (a) the diversion time capability for the airframe/engine combination, evidenced by the documents and information for the aeroplane mentioned in section 2.03;
 (b) the time limit of the aeroplane's cargo fire suppression system reduced by an operational safety margin of 15 minutes;
 (c) the time limit of the
