This document provides guidelines for qualifying air charter operators, aircrew, aircraft, and charter brokers to ensure safe air travel. It recommends that charter operators have the proper certifications, two licensed pilots, and meet other standards. Pilots should meet minimum experience requirements and ratings. Aircraft should be properly insured and maintained. Charter brokers are not required to be licensed but should be clear they are not direct air carriers and exercise due diligence in arranging qualified charter services.
An Aviation Case Study: Sorting Out Key Factor Leading An Airline Operator Ab...iosrjce
In aviation sector the Airline operators are earning from the number of routes they are operating.
Larger routes earn more profit comparable to short domestic routes. If an airline is banned to operate to
foreign routes, other carriers can take an opportunity to attract the passengers toward themselves during the
ban period of that operator. The penalty of losing route, passengers and their trust becomes colossal when
considered in terms of revenue and cost. European Union agency for aviation safety assessment has set
standard procedures for inspection of aircraft operator’s safety level and can put ban or limitation on the
operators to operate in their territory. So keeping this fact in mind case study of Pakistan international Airline
is taken, which came under the observation of European safety agency in 2006 and 2010 for degrading safety
level. In this work possible contributing factors that can be a cause to leading of non-conformance are analysed.
Main objective is to target out the main bottleneck through this case study and suggest the solutions to sort out
that problem.

The European Aviation Safety Agency, EASA, is coming up with regulatory changes for non-commerical operators. AIR OPS Annex VI Part-NCC obliges non-commercial operators of complex motor-powered aircraft to fulfill new legal requirements effective August 25, 2016.
In this presentation you will receive explanation on the necessary changes and the consequences for NCC operators: when talking about EASA regulations it might be difficult to read between the lines. I like to introduce you the regulatory background quickly before transferring those facts into the consequences, you – as an NCC operator – can expect from those regulatory changes.
Jeppesen and TRS Aviation Consulting have a great, joint experience in dealing with regulatory aspects and we like to show you solutions we can offer as well as what kind of processes and time periods can be estimated. Finally we take a look beyond our noses to see what additional services could be helpful for you.

AircraftIT MRO Journal Vol 3.4 Autonomics and the Network of Everything (NoE)Michael Denis
Its official - The Internet Of Things (IoT) Takes Over As The Most Hyped Technology,” wrote Gil Press on Forbes.com announcing Gartner’s annual Hype Cycle report on Emerging Technologies.
So what is The Internet of Things (IoT) and what does it have to do with aviation MRO?
IoT isn’t about the Internet nor about Things, rather, it’s about machines connected across networks of autonomous agents automatically processing events, without human intervention, to create value by adaptively analyzing big data to diagnose and prognosticate granular knowledge in order to provide value to human consumers of one.
Wow – that’s a mouth full of consultantese!
Like many innovations and capabilities, IoT originated in military research and development. Network Centric Warfare and Network Centric Operations (NCO) were strategic capabilities undertaken by the US DOD, UK MoD and NATO in parallel with Sweden’s Network Based
Defense (NBD).
Central to NCO/NBD methods and capabilities is the concept of sense and respond. Sense and respond logistics (S&RL) is commonly equated with autonomic logistics; but in fact S&RL only includes the non-adaptive
mechanics of Machine-to-Machine (M2M) and Machine-to-Human (M2H) transactions. The Network of Everything (NoE) adds to S&RL and IoT, Human-to-Human (H2H) interactions, collaboration, knowledge formation and complex decision making.
Diagnostics, prognostics, health management are common terms in both medicine and aviation service lifecycle management. Another common term adapted from biology is autonomic. The autonomic nervous system is the involuntary, autonomous and automatic control system for visceral organs functioning below the level of consciousness. The characteristics of an autonomic system are automatic, autonomous and adaptive.
Hmm, sounds a bit like what those technology geeks were describing for the Internet of Things.
Lockheed Martin developed the Autonomic Logistics Information System (ALIS) for performance based service lifecycle management of the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter.
New generation commercial aircraft like the Boeing 787, Airbus A380 and A350, Bombardier C-Series, Embraer E2, and Mitsubishi MRJ-90 create up to 1 terabyte of data per flight from the plethora of sensors on board. That data is being processed in flight and post flight, combined with human actions and content, and then analyzed to prognosticate who should do what, where and when in order to optimize asset utilization, labor productivity and supply effectiveness.
Networked autonomics are alive and well in aviation. But these initial capabilities have been stove piped along OEM specific closed proprietary networks.
MRO business networks need open universally interoperable MRO technology networks in order to optimize planes, parts, people and plants across the industry. The last piece of which is the ASD SX000i data standards.

What are the revenue classifications of the U.S. based for-hire air .pdfanaxeetech
What are the revenue classifications of the U.S. based for-hire air carriers? Define and describe
at least two of these classifications with examples.
Solution
of Airline Certification
U.S. scheduled airlines are classified by the government on the basis of the amount of revenue
generated from operations. These classifications are major, national and regional.
All airlines hold two certificates from the federal government: a fitness certificate and an
operating certificate. The Department of Transportation (DOT) issues fitness certificates - called
certificates of public convenience and necessity - under it\'s statutory authority. Basically, the
certificate establishes that the carrier has the financing and the management in place to provide
scheduled service. The certificate typically authorizes both passenger and cargo service. Some
airlines, however, obtain only cargo-service authority. Commuter airlines that use aircraft with a
seating capacity of 60 or fewer seats or a maximum payload capacity of no more than 18,000
pounds can operate under the alternative authority of Part 298 of DOT\'s economic regulations.
Operating certificates, on the other hand, are issued by the Federal Aviation Administration
(FAA) under Part 121 of the Federal Aviation Regulations (FARs), which spell out numerous
requirements for operating aircraft with 10 or more seats. The requirements cover such things as
the training of flight crews and aircraft maintenance programs. All majors, nationals and
regional\'s operate with a Part 121 certificate.
Majors
Major airlines generate operating revenues of more than $1 billion annually. Previously called
trunk carriers, they generally provide nationwide, and in some cases, worldwide service. There
are many major U.S. passenger airlines such as: Alaska, American, American Eagle, Continental,
Delta, Northwest, Southwest, United and US Airways. In addition, some cargo airlines are
classified as majors like: FedEx and United Parcel Service.
Nationals
National carriers are scheduled airlines with annual operating revenues between $100 million
and $1 billion. Many of the airlines in this category serve particular regions of the country,
although some provide long-haul and even international service. Among the nationals are some
of the former local service lines that, prior to deregulation, were licensed by the Civil
Aeronautics Board (CAB) to operate between major cities and smaller communities surrounding
them. Also in this category are some of the former supplemental carriers, previously licensed by
the CAB to operate unscheduled charter service, which supplemented the capacity of the trunk
carriers.
Like the majors, nationals operate mostly medium- and large-sized jets. They are subject to DOT
fitness requirements, as well as the FAA Part 121 operating requirements. Some of the nationals
you may have heard of in the past include companies like Aloha, Atlas Air, Emery Worldwide,
Evergreen, Hawaiian, Midwest Express and Polar .

2. Qualifying a Charter Operator
Finding the right charter operator can seem like a daunting task. By following these
recommendations you will develop the ability to identify qualified operators for your air
travel needs.
It is recommended that only operators able to provide evidence of current air carrier
certificates, consistent with the type of commercial operation being requested, be
contracted to provide air travel. When chartering, be sure to demand two appropriately
qualified and licensed pilots as a requirement for all passenger carrying flights. Charter
providers should be pre-screened to allow for quicker response to on-demand, short
notice air transportation. This can be accomplished either directly with the provider,
or through a charter broker. The development of standardized qualifying criteria will
facilitate this pre-screening.
Operator must1. be in possession of a current, air operator certificate issued
by their country’s appropriate licensing agency (such as Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA) Part 121,125,129,135).
Oper2. ator must have been consistently operating an aircraft under a valid
air operator certificate for a minimum of 24 months. Require an on-site
audit for newer certificates.
Operator3. must have a permanent, physical, primary office location
containing the appropriate records applicable to the prior operational
experience. These records must include appropriate pilot, aircraft,
maintenance, training, and trip records.
Operator4. must have full-time staff including adequate management, pilots, administrative, and maintenance
personnel.
The5. Operator should provide a current list of approved aircraft from an official approved operations document (i.e.
FAA Operations Specifications, International Air Transportation Association (IATA) Air Operators Certificate, etc.).
4240 Airport Rd. Suite 300, Cincinnati OH 45226 // 513.852.1010 // argus.sales@argus.aero // www.argus.aero -2-
3. Audit6. the air carrier or use a third-party auditing firm to assure the air carrier
meets regulatory requirements, industry best practices and any customer specific
needs.
Check7. for any historical or current regulatory enforcement actions against
the air carrier. The National Business Aviation Association (NBAA) recommends
that this is obtained through a third party auditor or the regulatory authority that
oversees the air carrier.
Obtain8. and review the liability insurance amounts on the aircraft. Liability
Insurance minimums are dependent upon the type of the aircraft and operation
(anywhere from $25,000,000 to $200,000,000 in coverage).
Provide9. the air carrier with a master vendor agreement which details the
minimum service expected (aircraft, crew, insurance minimums, etc). Ensure that
all agreements with the air carrier are in writing.
Qualifying Aircrew
How do you know if the pilots are qualified? The following are the recommended
minimum crew requirements and qualifications. Each is subject to change based
on new and/or updated federal regulations or industry best practices. The
below listed experience requirements depict common qualification guidelines.
Supplemental criteria or other minimums may apply in certain circumstances.
Pilot-in-Command (PIC)1.
Salaried employee of operator.•
Cannot be a contract pilot.•
Minimum total time of 3,000 hours•
Minimum total PIC time of 1,500 hours•

No signifi• cant accidents, incidents, or
enforcement action in the previous 36
months.
2. Second-in-Command (SIC)
Minimum total time of 1,000 hours•
Minimum total PIC time of 500 hours•
Commercial, multi-engine, instrument•
rating
Current Class 1 or 2 medical•
No significan• t accidents, incidents, or
enforcement action in the previous 3 years.
NOTE: In the event the pilots do not meet the criteria established above, their combined experience and ratings must exceed the
individual requirements set forth for each.
Qualifying Aircraft
It is important to ask about the aircraft that will be used during your travel, therefore it is recommended to ensure the following:
Airc1. raft must be under the operational control of the certificated air operator employing the crew.
Aircraft2. may not have historical significant damage or serious maintenance anomalies.
Liability3. Insurance minimums apply depending upon the type of the aircraft and operation (from $25,000,000 to
$200,000,000 in coverage). Hull insurance consistent with the value of the aircraft in the marketplace should be
required.
Installed4. avionics equipment minimums (Traffic Collision Avoidance System (TCAS), Ground Proximity Warning
System (GPWS), and Reduced Vertical Minimum Separation (RVSM) may apply.
4240 Airport Rd. Suite 300, Cincinnati OH 45226 // 513.852.1010 // argus.sales@argus.aero // www.argus.aero -4-
5. Maintenance5. Programs are established to ensure the aircraft are properly certified and maintained in a manner that ensures
they are airworthy and safe. The Maintenance programs should be validated through an independent source to verify that
the program includes the use of manufacturer’s and Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) information, as well as company policies
and procedures.
Management6. ensures that contracted maintenance, including repair and overhaul facilities, is performed by maintenance
organizations acceptable to the CAA.
All mai7. ntenance tasks, including required inspections and airworthiness
directives, are performed; that maintenance actions are properly documented;
and that the discrepancies identified between inspections are corrected.
A sys8. tem that continuously analyzes the performance and effectiveness of
maintenance activities and maintenance inspection programs is required.
A requir9. ed process to ensure that aircraft inspections are completed and the
results properly documented.
10. Company policy manuals and manufacturer’s maintenance manuals are
current, available, clear, complete, and adhered to by maintenance personnel.
Maintenance11. facilities are adequate for the level of aircraft repair authorized in
the company’s CAA certificate.
Charter Broker Requirements
If you decide to use a charter broker to set up your travel arrangements, you will want to
ensure they meet any regulatory requirements and best practices set forth for air charter
brokering. Air charter brokers must be very familiar with a range of FAA operational
regulations and restrictions, such as requirements for certificated charter operators, flight
duty, and rest restrictions, and the need for the charter operator to maintain complete

Unlike FAA-certificated charter operators, charter brokers acting either as an agent for the customer, an agent for the air carrier or the
middleman currently are not required to be licensed and/or certificated by the FAA or Department of Transportation (DOT). However,

the DOT has published enforcement policy notices that set certain requirements for all air charter brokers,
which are summarized here:
Brokers1. must be clear with the customer/charterer, as applicable, in all solicitation materials,
verbal and written correspondence, contractual documentation and word-of-mouth contact,
that they are not the FAA licensed Part 121, 125 ,129 or 135 operator. The broker cannot
create the false impression that they are direct air carriers in their own right by, for example,
referring to an aircraft used in the air services they are marketing in a manner that conveys
the false impression that they are the air carrier. Such phrases as “our fleet,” “our charters,”
“our charter service,” “our aircraft,” “our crews”, “our flight crews” or “we operate a fleet of”
have been found by the DOT to create such an impression, even if such phrases are qualified
by footnotes or other disclaimers. Brokers may not represent themselves as a principal in a
transaction (i.e., buying or selling air transportation for their own account) unless they have first received economic authority
from the DOT to act as an Indirect Air Carrier (IAC) (see below).
It is in2. cumbent upon the broker to exercise due diligence to ensure he or she is arranging the charter service that is
advertised. For example, if the broker is acting as an agent of customer, the broker must ensure it is, in fact, placing
customers on licensed direct air carriers. Similarly, if the broker is advertising that charter customers will be placed on
audited charter flights (e.g., “ARGUS Platinum Rated”), then the broker must ensure that the charter operator has met that
audit/standard.
With these guidelines you now have the knowledge needed to ensure that your air charter travel
is undertaken using safe, reputable air transportation providers.
