GM1 26.303(a) Derogation from point (a)(ii)

ED Decision 2020/023/R

Compliance with point 26.303(a)(ii) of Part-26 is not required if the holder of the (R)TC demonstrates that the aeroplane models affected by the service information for a maintenance action will not be operated any more after the scheduled point of submittal for the service information of that maintenance action.

The wording ‘not operated any more’ means that no aeroplanes of that model are operated anywhere in the world after the scheduled point of submittal of the service information.

The following non-exhaustive list provides examples of how to demonstrate that an aeroplane model is not operated any more:

      Provide evidence that all the examples of that aeroplane model have been scrapped;

      Provide evidence that all the remaining examples of that aeroplane model are no longer in airworthy condition and are not expected to return into service in the future (e.g. permanent storage for the purpose of being transferred to a museum or scrapped).
