Acts specified in the Schedule are amended as set out in the Schedule, but the amendments commence as provided by section 2.

Savings provisions relating to certain Air Operators' Certificates

  4.(1) If:

     (a) an Air Operator's Certificate was purportedly issued under section 27 of the Civil Aviation Act 1988 before the amendments of that Act contained in items 19, 30, 31, 32 and 33 commence; and

     (b) the Certificate was expressed to authorise the flying or operation of aircraft included in a class of aircraft described in the Certificate rather than of a particular aircraft during a period that began before; and

     (c) the Certificate had not expired, or been cancelled, before those amendments commence;

the Certificate is taken to have been as validly issued as it would have been if those amendments had been in force at the time when the Certificate was issued.

  (2) If:

     (a) an Air Operator's Certificate was purportedly issued under section 27 of the Civil Aviation Act 1988 before the amendments of that Act contained in items 19, 30, 31, 32 and 33 commence; and

     (b) despite subsection 27(7) of the Civil Aviation Act 1988, the Certificate had been issued without specifying the term of its operation; and

     (c) the Certificate had not been cancelled before the amendments commence;

the Certificate is taken to have been validly issued for a term ending on 1 July 1994.

Transitional provision relating to certain Air Operators' Certificates

    (a) an Air Operator's Certificate was issued under section 27 of the Civil Aviation Act 1988 before the amendments of that Act contained in items 19, 30, 31, 32 and 33 commence; and

    (b) the Certificate authorised a foreign registered aircraft, or is, under subsection 4(1), taken to have authorised a foreign registered aircraft included in a class of aircraft, to undertake domestic commercial flights; and

    (c) the Certificate, or the particular authorisation included or taken to be included within the Certificate, had not expired, or been cancelled, before the amendments commence;

that Certificate continues to authorise that aircraft or those aircraft to undertake those flights, in accordance with its terms, for 3 months after the amendments commence or until it expires or is cancelled, whichever first occurs.

  (2) In this section:

"domestic commercial flight" and "foreign registered aircraft" have the same respective meaning as they have for the purposes of the Civil Aviation Act 1988 as amended by this Act.
