In order to be considered a ‘standard part’, all design, manufacturing, inspection data and marking requirements necessary to demonstrate conformity of that part should be in the public domain and published or established as part of officially recognised standards; or (b)     For sailplanes and powered sailplanes, where it is a non-required instrument and/or equipment certified under CS 22.1301(b), if that instrument or equipment, when installed, functioning, functioning improperly or not functioning at all, does not in itself, or by its effect upon the sailplane and its operation, constitute a safety hazard. ‘Required’ in the term ‘non-required’ as used in point (b) means required by the applicable certification specifications (CS 22.1303, CS 22.1305 and CS 22.1307) or required by the relevant operating regulations and the applicable rules of the air, or as required by air traffic management (e.g. a transponder in certain controlled airspace). Examples of equipment which can be considered ‘standard parts’ are electrical variometers, bank/slip indicators ball type, total energy probes, capacity bottles (for variometers), final glide calculators, navigation computers, data logger / barograph / turnpoint camera, bug wipers and anti-collision systems. Equipment which must be approved in accordance with the applicable certification specifications shall comply with the applicable ETSO or equivalent, and is not considered a ‘standard part’ (e.g. oxygen equipment). ##### AMC1 21L.A.192(a)(4) Showing of compliance *ED Decision 2023/013/R* **STANDARD PARTS** (a) In this context, a part is considered as a ‘standard part’ where it is designated as such by the design approval holder or declarant responsible for the product or part in which the part is intended to be used.
