GM2 ARO.OPS.225 Approval of fuel/energy schemes

ED Decision 2022/005/R

ASSESSMENT AND OVERSIGHT OF POLICIES ASSOCIATED WITH FUEL SCHEMES

The competent authority’s assessment and oversight of:

— the fuel planning and in-flight re-planning policy;

— the selection-of-aerodromes policy; and

— the in-flight fuel management policy

may follow a two-step process: firstly, assess and oversee each policy individually, and secondly, and more importantly, assess and oversee all the policies together.

The competent authority should be satisfied with regard to the following:

— the robustness of the operator’s management system, particularly with regard to safety risk management; and

— in case of basic fuel schemes with variations and individual fuel schemes, the operator’s processes for performance monitoring and measurement.
