aircraft equipment for RNP AR operations, including a configuration list of the components and equipment;
(c) a detailed description of the proposed flight crew training for RNP AR operations, including a copy of the training syllabus, for approval by CASA;
(d) a detailed description of the operating procedures to be used for RNP AR operations (including flight planning and flight procedures) supported by relevant copies of, or extracts from, the following:
           (i) the operations manual;
           (ii) the checklists;
           (iii) the contingency procedures;
           (iv) the QRH;
(e) a FOSA as set out in clause 4 of this Appendix;
(f) copies of the sections of the MEL applicable to RNP AR operations;
(g) a detailed description of the maintenance program used to ensure the continuing airworthiness of the aircraft for RNP AR operations;
(h) a detailed description of the method used to ensure the continued integrity of the airborne navigation database;
(i) if requested in writing by CASA — a copy of any relevant document referred to in any of the documents mentioned in paragraphs (a) to (h).

4 FOSA
       4.1An operator must conduct a FOSA before applying to CASA to carry out either of the following:
(a) before conducting an RNP AR operation that requires an RNP value of less than 0.3 NM;
(b) before conducting an RNP AR operation in which the published procedure includes a procedure for one engine inoperative (OEI).
Note   The FOSA is to be consistent with ICAO Doc. 9613, Performance-based Navigation (PBN) Manual, Volume II, Part C, Chapter 6, Implementing RNP AR APCH. (See also the definition in paragraph 3.4 of this Order.)
       4.3 The FOSA must set out details of the methods used by the operator to manage the risks associated with non-normal events arising from RNP AR operations.
       4.4 The FOSA must include the mitigations implemented by the operator to reduce non-normal safety risks to the level of "As Low as Reasonably Practical (ALARP)".
Note 1   Suitable methods to mitigate non-normal safety risks include flight crew procedures (including contingency procedures), flight crew training, engineering modifications, operating limitations, and procedure design.
Note 2   Additional guidance on provision for non-normal operations is contained in FAA AC 120-29A, Criteria for Approval of Category I and Category II, Weather Minima for Approach.
       4.5The FOSA should set out details of the methods used by the operator to manage the risks associated with adding additional destinations where RNP AR operations will be conducted.

5 Aircraft eligibility
       An aircraft is eligible for RNP AR operations only if:
(a) the OEM has documented that the aircraft is capable of RNP AR approach operations, or RNP AR departure operations or both RNP AR approach and departure operations; and
(b) the aircraft meets the
