(¹) Telephone contact details of the competent authority, including the country code. Email address to be provided, as well as fax if available.

(²) Insertion of associated air operator certificate (AOC) number.

(³) Insertion of the operator’s registered name and the operator’s trading name, if different. Insert “Dba” (for “Doing business as”) before the trading name.

(⁴) Issue date of the operations specifications (dd-mm-yyyy) and signature of the competent authority representative.

(⁵) Insertion of ICAO designation of the aircraft make, model and series, or master series, if a series has been designated (e.g. Boeing-737-3K2 or Boeing-777-232) or insertion of the VTOL-capable aircraft make, model and series, as applicable.

(⁶) The registration marks are listed either in the operations specifications or in the operations manual. In the latter case, the related operations specifications must make a reference to the related page in the operations manual. In case not all specific approvals apply to the aircraft model, the registration marks of the aircraft may be entered in the “Remarks” column to the related specific approval.

(⁷) Other type of transportation (e.g. emergency medical service) to be specified.

(⁸) Listing of geographical area(s) of authorised operation (by geographical coordinates or specific routes, flight information region or national or regional boundaries).

(⁹) Listing of applicable special limitations (e.g. VFR only, Day only, etc.).

(¹⁰) List in this column the most permissive criteria for each approval or the approval type (with appropriate criteria).

(¹¹) Insertion of approved minimum take-off RVR in metres. One line per approval may be used if different approvals are granted.

(¹²) Insertion of applicable precision approach category: CAT II or CAT III. Insertion of minimum RVR in metres and DH in feet. One line is used per listed approach category.

(¹³) Insertion of applicable operational credit: SA CAT I, SA CAT II, EFVS, etc. Insertion of minimum RVR in metres and DH in feet. One line is used per listed operational credit.

(¹⁴) The “Not Applicable” (N/A) box may be checked only if the aircraft maximum ceiling is below FL290.

(¹⁵) Extended range operations (ETOPS) currently apply only to two-engined aircraft. Therefore, the ‘Not Applicable’ (N/A) box may be checked if the aircraft model has fewer or more than two engines.

(¹⁶) The threshold distance may also be listed (in NM), as well as the engine type.

(¹⁷) Performance-based navigation (PBN): one line is used for each complex PBN-specific approval (e.g. RNP AR APCH), with appropriate limitations listed in the “Specifications” or “Remarks” columns, or in both. Procedure-specific approvals of specific RNP AR APCH procedures may be listed in the operations specifications or in the operations manual. In the latter case, the related operations specifications must have a reference to the related page in the operations manual.

(¹⁸) Specify if the specific approval is limited to certain runway ends or aerodromes, or both.

(¹⁹) Insertion of the particular airframe or engine combination.

(²⁰) Approval to conduct the training course and examination to be completed by applicants for a cabin crew attestation as specified in Annex V (Part-CC) to Regulation (EU) No 1178/2011.

(²¹) Approval to issue cabin crew attestations as specified in Annex V (Part-CC) to Regulation (EU) No 1178/2011.

(²²) Insertion of the list of type B EFB applications together with the reference of the EFB hardware (for portable EFBs). This list is contained either in the operations specifications or in the operations manual. In the latter case, the related operations specifications must make a reference to the related page in the operations manual.

(²³) The approval reference of the organisation responsible for managing the continuing airworthiness of the aircraft and a reference to the relevant regulation (e.g. Annex Vc (Part-CAMO) to Regulation (EU) No 1321/2014).

(²⁴) Other approvals or data may be entered here, using one line (or one multi-line block) per authorisation (e.g. short‑landing operations, steep-approach operations, reduced required landing distance, helicopter operations to or from a public interest site, helicopter operations over a hostile environment located outside a congested area, helicopter operations without a safe forced landing capability, operations with increased bank angles, maximum distance from an adequate aerodrome for two-engined aeroplanes without an ETOPS approval).
