insert

limited rating means a rating, authorisation or rating-equivalent mentioned in sub-subparagraph 16 (b) (ii), 16 (c) (ii) or 16 (d) (ii) on which an NAA (other than an excluded State), a foreign company, the Australian Defence Force or the National Defence Force of a Contracting State (other than an excluded State) has imposed a limitation.

[2]        Paragraph 2.1, definition of restricted rating

restricted rating means:

(a)a rating restricted as described in the course plan in accordance with sub‑subparagraph 15.7 (c) (iii); or

(b)a rating restricted in line with a corresponding limited rating.

[3]        After subsection 16

insert

16A     Removal of restriction on a rating

16A.1   CASA may remove a restriction from a restricted rating of a maintenance authority holder only in accordance with this subsection.

16A.2   CASA may, in writing, remove the restriction from the holder’s restricted rating if:

(a)   the restriction is one that CASA, after taking into account any relevant considerations relating to the interests of safety, considers is appropriate for removal under this subsection and has listed in an AAC; and

(b)   CASA is given a written report that the holder has successfully received a subset of training and assessment relating to the restriction on the rating; and

(c)   CASA is satisfied that, for the restriction, the training and assessment is at least equivalent to training and assessment in the theoretical and corresponding practical elements mentioned in Parts 2 and 3 of Appendix 7 that would otherwise be required by the person for a rating without the restriction.

16A.3   The written report mentioned in subparagraph 16A.2 (b) may only be given by:

(a)   a recognised organisation in accordance with its exposition as approved, in writing, for the purposes of this subsection; or

(b)   a CAR 30 organisation:

(i)  approved in writing for the purposes of this subsection; and

(ii)  for whom the holder is an employee.

Note   A CAR 30 organisation requires a specific approval to be able to give written reports. An RO’s exposition must be specifically approved for this purpose also. In each case, approval is dependent on CASA being satisfied that each proposed subset of training and assessment will be at least equivalent to that mentioned in the relevant Parts of Appendix 7.

16A.4   For a restriction to which subparagraph 16A.2 (a) applies, CASA may, in writing, remove the restriction from a holder’s restricted rating if, after taking into account any relevant considerations relating to the interests of safety, CASA is satisfied that the holder has received other training and assessment that is at least equivalent to the training and assessment mentioned in paragraph 16A.2.
