AC 21-2B CHG 1 Appendix 2 11/13/70 Page 5 aircraft complies with the appropriate Section of Part 101 of Air Navigation Orders and the Director General of Civil Aviation has advised the responsible region of the FAA in writing of its acceptance of the aircraft. The following guidance is offered;
a. Export airworthiness approval of aircraft located outside the United States of America, its territories or possessions will be subject to the provisions of subparagraph (b)(2), Section 21.325, Part 21, of the Federal Aviation Regulations.
b. Compliance with the requirements of Air Navigation Orders may be demonstrated to an authorized officer or officers of the Australian Department of Civil Aviation. These officers will normally visit the United States'to assess compliance only in the case of transport category aircraft of maximum take-off weight greater than 12,500 1b.
3. In some circumstances it may be impossible or undesirable to show that an aircraft complies with all the requirements of the appropriate Section of Part 101 of Air Navigation Orders until the aircraft arrives in Australia.
Similarly it may be more appropriate that modification to achieve compliance with the Air Navigation Orders be deferred until the aircraft arrives in Australia, In these circumstances an Export Certificate of Airworthiness for export to Australia may be issued in accordance with the requirements prescribed in Part 21 of the Federal Aviation Regulations when it has been demonstrated to the responsible region of the FAA that the aircraft complies with such of the requirements of the appropriate Section of Part 101 of the Air Navigation Orders as are desired and the requirements not complied with are clearly established. The Export Certificate of Airworthiness will be endorsed with those exceptions and with the applicable Section of Air Navigation Orders Part 101 against which the demonstration has been made. The following guidance is offered:
a. Circumstances in which it may not be possible to demonstrate compliance with the requirements before export include the following:
(1) Those where interpretations or assessments have to be given by the Department of Civil Aviation and where an authorized officer is not available in the U.S. to perform these functions; and
(2) Those where demonstrations of radio communication/navigation and other electronic equipment need to be given using Australian ground aids.
b. There are some circumstances where compliance can only be demonstrated or modification can only be performed by the manufacturer in which * cases the applicant should note the possibility of difficulties developing later, should he proceed without that compliance.
Appendix 2 AC 21-2B CHG 1 Page 6 11/13/70 C• In the circumstances concerned, the U.S. Export Certificate of Airworthiness, if it has been issued for no longer than 90 days or 50 operating hours, will be validated, if so requested, to permit the aircraft to be flown to Australia. An Australian Certificate of * Airworthiness will be issued for the aircraft only when it has been demonstrated to the Department of Civil Aviation that the previously unfulfilled requirements have been complied with or agreement has been reached with the Australian applicant as to a program of compllance.
4. In some cases it may not be possible, before export of an aircraft to Australia, to provide all the documents and data required by the relevant Section of Part 101 of Air Navigation Orders. In these cases an Export Certificate of Airworthiness for export to Australia may be issued in accordance with the requirements prescribed in Part 21 of the Federal Aviation Regulations when as many of the documents and data as possible are supplied to the responsible region of the FAA and documents and data not supplied are clearly defined. The Export Certificate of Airworthiness will be endorsed with those exceptions and with the applicable Section of Air Navigation Orders, Part 101 against which the supply of documents and data has been assessed. The following guidance is offered: * The documents and data required, by the Air Navigation Orders, to be supplied to the Director General of Civil Aviation, include data on each aircraft as well as on the aircraft type. These latter documents are only required when the aircraft is the first of its type to be imported into Australia, Subsequent aircraft of the same type and model are only required to be supported by documents appropriate to the individual aircraft.
b. The vendor or exporter should obtain advice from the purchaser (on the basis of information furnished to the purchaser by the Australian Department of Civil Aviation), or from a representative of the Depart- пера вне ment of Civil Aviation, as to whether an eircraft is the first of its type or model to be imported into Australia.
* C. Practically all of the documents and data concerned can only be supplied by the manufacturer and therefore, the applicant should note the possibility of difficulties developing later should he proceed without that material.
d. In the circumstances concerned, the United States Export Certificate of Airworthiness may be validated, if so requested, to permit the aircraft to be flown to Australia. An Australian Certificate of Airworthiness will be issued for the aircraft only when the remaining documents and data have been supplied to the Department of Civil Aviation or agreement has been reached with the Australian applicant as to a program for supply of the material.

5. Aircraft engines and propellers which are exported to Australia as spares, i.e., not as parts of a particular aircraft, to be eligible for use on Australian aircraft must comply with the type design, must be new or newly overhauled as defined in Part 21 of the United States FARs and must have a log book, In addition, such engines and propellers are required to conform with modifications and specified manufacturers' service documents which are made mandatory by Air Navigation Orders.
The following guidance is offered:
a. A United States Export Certificate of Airworthiness for export to Australia will be considered as evidence that an aircraft engine or propeller conforms with the type design and is either new or newly overhauled.
b. Engines and propellers need not incorporate modifications or manufacturers' service documents made mandatory by the Director-General prior to export to Australia. However, since it may be difficult to determine in Australia whether the product complies with the mandatory documents, information as to the modification status of a product would be of help to the Australian user. An appropriate statement either in a log book or separately issued by the person or organization issuing the United States Export Certificate of Airworthiness will be considered as evidence of the modification status.
6. Class II and Class III products which are exported to Australia as spares, i.e., not as parts of a particular aircraft, to be eligible for use on Australian aircraft must conform with the type design and must be new or newly overhauled as defined in Part 21 of the United States FARs. In addition, such products are required to conform with modifications and specified manufacturers' service documents which are made mandatory by Air Navigation Orders. The following guidance is offered:
a. An Airworthiness Approval Tag, FAA Form 8130-3, issued in accordance with the requirements of Part 2l of the United States FARs will be considered as evidence that the products conform with the type design and are either new or newly overhauled.
b. Products need not incorporate modification or manufacturers' service documents made mandatory by the Director General prior to export to Australia. However, since it may be difficult to determine in Australia whether the product complies with the mandatory documents, information as to the modification status of a product would be of help to the Australian user. A statement by the person issuing the airworthiness approval tag will be considered as evidence of the modification status of the products.

FRANCE, REPUBLIC OF - SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS Introduction. Effective October 12, 1968, to be eligible for a French standard airworthiness certificate an aircraft imported into France must be of a type which has been issued a French type certificate for import, except as provided in paragraph 2a(2) of these special requirements. In addition, U.S. manufactured aircraft must meet the export rules in Federal Aviation Regulations (FAR) Part 21, Subpart L. The requirements for issuance of French type certificates are contained in a document 'Conditions de Navigabilite des Aéronefs Civile - Arrêté of September 1967," (for convenience, referred to hereinafter as the "CNAC") and in French Circular No. 5403 DIA/M, S.G.A.C. dated November 13, 1968. Othei french documents and circulars also apply, as referred to in the text that follows. Copies of French documents and circulars can be obtained from the Ministry of Transportation, Secretariat General of Civil Aviation, Direction des Transports Aériens, 93, Boulevard du Montparnasse, Paris 6, France. Since a French type certificate for import is a prerequisite to issuance of a French airworthiness certificate, these special requirements include an outline of the general requirements for obtaining such type certificates.
2. Requirements for Issuance of French Airworthiness Certificates and Permits.
a. Standard Airworthiness Certificates.
(1) Except as provided in paragraph 2a(2), a U.S. Export Certificate of Airworthiness, FAA Form 8130-4, may be exchanged against a French airworthiness certificate only if the following requirements have been met.
(a) The aircraft type must have a French type certificate for import.
(b) The requirements of Article 11B of the CNAC must be complied with.
(2) If a French standard airworthiness certificate was issued prior to October 12, 1968, for at least one aircraft of a particular type, then aircraft of that type may continue to be issued French standard airworthiness certificates on the basis of equivalency with the U.S. export certificate of airworthiness, even though the particular model involved may not have been iasued a French type certificate for import. French airworthiness certificates are issued under these conditions subject to compliance with other requirements of the CNAC (reference CNAC Article 5, paragraph 2).
AC 21-2B Appendix 2 10/2/69 Page 15 An aircraft having major changes which required approval under Federal Aviation Regulations (FAR) Part 21, Section
21.97 and/or FAR Part 21, Subpart E is not eligible to obtain a French airworthiness certificate under the provisions of paragraph 2a(2), even though an aircraft of the same model may have been issued a French airworthiness certificate prior to October 12, 1968. In order to obtain a French standard airworthiness certificate, the appiicant must comply with the procedures outlined under paragraph 2a(1). A French type certificate for import or an extension of a type certificate for import will be issued each time that the FAA issues a new type certificate or an STC for a model based on a model previously imported.
Special Airworthiness Certificates. A French special airworthiness certificate may be issued to an aircraft of a model for which application has been made for a French type certificate for import, in order to facilitate its use under the conditions spelled out in Article 5, paragraph 2B of the CNAC, provided that the Secretariat General of Aviation Civil (S.G.A.C.) is familiar with the model. In addition, the procedure required for issuance of special airworthiness certificates will be applied in the case of aircraft in the restricted category.
Co Permit. A permit may be issued by the S.G.A.C. to an aircraft which has provisional French registration markings, only to permit the ferrying and tests necessary for aircraft type certification. Normally, the S.G.A.C. will not authorize any private utilization and the permit may, basically, be renewed only for a total period of time not to exceed one year (reference CNAC Articles 13 and 19, and Article 5, paragraph 3).
3. Requirements for Issuance of French Type Certificates for Import for U.S.
Manufactured Aircraft.
Applicant.
(1) The applicant for a French type certificate for import must be the person responsible for maintaining the level of airworthiness for the aircraft. Generally such person would be the manufacturer who originally obtained, and who holds the U.S. type certificate.
If the U.S. type certificate has been transferred by the original holder, the new holder (applicant) must be capable of, and responsible for maintaining the level of airworthiness.
In exceptional cases, it is possible to accept an application for a French type certificate for import from a person who is not the U.S. type certificate holder, provided that the applicant furnishes proof that he has been duly authorized to take over complete responsibility for the type certificate under the licensing provisions of Federal Aviation Regulations Part 21, Section 21.47.
Appendix 2 AC 21-2B CHG 1 Page 16 11/13/70
b. Documents. The required documents are specified in Article Il of the CNAC and under paragraph 5 of these special requirements.
c. Special Conditions. A U.S. applicant for a French type certificate for import must show compliance with the applicable FARS, plus any special conditions imposed by the S.G.A.C. Three types of special conditions are outlined in paragraphs 3c(1), (2), and (3). The primary purpose of the special conditions is to guarantee an airworthiness level equivalent to that of aircraft built and certified in France.
(1) Administrative Special Conditions.
(a) Language. The documents which the S.G.A.C. requires to be furnished may be in English except for the following, which must be provided in French:
1 The type certificate (I.C.), data sheet;
2 The flight manual; and 2 The proposed maintenance guide.
NOTE: The S.G.A.C. will verify the translations of these documents and must approve the IC data sheet and the flight manual.
(b) Document Format. The I.C. data sheet, flight manual, and proposed maintenance guide must be prepared in accordance with the formats specified in the following:
- I.C. Data Sheet. The SGAC will accept a simple translation into French of the TC data sheets approved by the FAA.
2 Flight Manual. The flight manual in French, which must be carried in each aircraft imported into France, must be either a simple translation of the FAA approved flight manual when one exists, or if a flight manual does not exist, a similar document must be established for the purpose of import into France and must contain the following sections:
a Limitations.
• Normal Operations Emergency Operations.
Performance (Limited to only the approved performance conforming to the requirements of the applicable airworthiness FAR part.)
