Inoperative instruments and equipment

Subregulation 1

Subject to paragraphs (2) and (3), a CGAC holder must not commence a complex general aviation operation if any instrument or item of equipment that the aircraft is required under these Regulations to be carried on the aircraft in the circumstances of the intended flight is not carried or is not in a fit condition for use.

Subregulation 2

The Director‑General of Civil Aviation may, subject to such conditions as the Director‑General of Civil Aviation thinks fit, permit a CGAC holder to operate an aircraft for a complex general aviation operation in specified circumstances even if the aircraft does not carry a required instrument or item of equipment or that instrument or item of equipment is not in a fit condition for use.

Subregulation 3

When a permission is granted under paragraph (2), the CGAC holder may commence a complex general aviation operation and operate the aircraft in the circumstances specified in the permission if —

(a)

the CGAC holder has provided the particulars of the permission to the pilot‑in‑command of the aircraft;

(b)

the pilot‑in‑command has reviewed the particulars of the permission and determined that compliance with regulation 24 of the Air Navigation (91 — General Operating Rules) Regulations 2018 is possible; and
