GM1 ML.A.403 Aircraft defects ED Decision 2020/002/R If appropriate certifying staff is readily available for consultation, the pilot should consider consultation with them before deferring any defect. For balloons not operated under Subpart-ADD, sailplanes not operated under Subpart-DEC, or other aircraft operated under Part-NCO, the pilot may defer required equipment, regardless of whether or not a CAMO or CAO is contracted. However, if doing so, he or she has the obligation to receive the agreement of the owner, or the contracted CAMO or CAO. The term ‘required’ refers to equipment that is required by the applicable airworthiness code (certification specification) or required by the relevant regulations for air operations or the applicable rules of the air or as required by air traffic management (e.g. a transponder in certain controlled airspace). ##### GM1 ML.A.403  Aircraft defects *ED Decision 2020/002/R* If appropriate certifying staff is readily available for consultation, the pilot should consider consultation with them before deferring any defect.
