statement to the certified designer's staff to the effect that:

(i)            a design for a type of terminal instrument flight procedure (TIFP) (other than one for use in a specialised helicopter operation or a ship's pilot PinS operation) may only be completed and given for verification, validation or publication for a certified aerodrome or a registered aerodrome; and

(ii)          the terms of paragraphs 6.1.3.3 and 6.1.4.1A of this MOS must be followed as if they were part of the Operations Manual;

Note This statement in the Operations Manual is to complement regulation 139.030 of CASR 1998. This provides that, other than for a specialised helicopter operation, a person must not operate an aerodrome for which there is a type of TIFP unless the aerodrome is a certified aerodrome or a registered aerodrome. Designing may be commenced for an applicant for certification or registration of an aerodrome but, unless the aerodrome is actually certified or registered, the design may not be completed, or given for verification, validation or publication.

(p)         a description of the designer's training and checking program;

(q)         a description of the procedures to be used in commissioning new facilities, equipment and services;

(r)           a description of the standards, rules and procedures to be used to ensure a procedure is published in accordance with the format and drafting conventions specified in a data product specification given to the designer under regulation 175.160 of CASR 1998;
Note: The term data product specification has the meaning given by the CASR Dictionary.

(s)          a description of the format(s) that will be used for the issue of completed designs for publication;

(t)            a description of the procedures to be used to ensure that all equipment, including software is operated in accordance with the manufacturer's operating instructions and manuals;

(u)         the safety management system of the certified designer;

(v)          a description of the procedures to be used to conduct environmental assessments; and

(w)        the procedures to be followed for revising the operations manual.

2.1.1.2              In this paragraph:

 ship's pilot PinS operation means a helicopter operation to and from a point in-space (PinS) at or near a ship at sea for transferring the ship's pilot to or from the ship.
