Serial Nos. Eligible The French Government Certif icate of Airworthiness for Export endorsed as noted under
"Import Requirements" must be submitted for each individual helicopter for which
application for certification is made. For applications for Standard Airworthiness
Certificates made after May1, 2004, a review of historical records is needed to determine
if the helicopter was delivered to and operated by the military. If the helicopter has
military history, the helicopter is not eligible for a Standard Airworthiness Certificate
unless a copy of a Standard Airworthiness Certificate issued at the time of delivery to the
military is submitted.
Certification Basis CAR 10. CAR 6 effective Janua ry 15, 1951 including Amendment 6-1 through 6-8, plus
Special Conditions notified by the U.S. govern ment to the Government of France in FAA
letter of May 28, 1957.
Type Certificate No. 7H1 issued January 14, 1958
Date of Application October 11, 1955
5 of 7 7H1, Rev 16
The French Direction Generale de l’Aviation Civile (DGAC) originally type
certificated this rotorcraft under its type certificate TC 1. The FAA validated
this product under U.S. Type Certificate Number 7H1. Effective September 28,
2003, the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) began oversight of this
product on behalf of the DGAC.
Import Requirements
The FAA can issue a U.S. airworthiness certificate based on a National Aviation
Authority (NAA) Export Certificate of Airworthiness (Export C of A) signed by
a representative of the French Generale de l’Aviation Civile (DGAC) on behalf
of the European Community.
The Export C of A should contain the following statement: “The aircraft covered
by this certificate has been examined, tested, and found to comply with the type
design approved under U.S. Type Certificate Number 7H1 and to be in a
condition for safe operation.”
Equipment The basic required equipment as prescrib ed in the applicable airworthiness regulations
(see Certification Basis) must be installed in the aircraft for certification. In addition, the
following item of equipment is required:
(a) SGAC approved Alouette II or Alouette Astazou Flight Manual, as applicable.
Service Information Each of the documents listed below must state that it is approved by the
European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) or – for approvals made before
September 28, 2003 – by the French Generale de l’Aviation Civile (DGAC).
Any such documents are accepted by the FAA and are considered FAA
approved.
Service Bulletin,
Structural repair manuals,
Vendor manuals,
Aircraft flight manuals, and
Overhaul and maintenance manuals.
This applies only to the acce ptance of the type design data.
NOTE 1: Current weight and ba lance report, including list of equipment included in certificated empty weight, and
loading instructions when necessary, must be provid ed for each helicopter at the time of original
certification. In order to obtain the most consistent weight and balance results, all model helicopters should
be weighed on jackpoints rather than on skids, wheels or floads. When changes are made to the helicopter
which affect the weight and balance refer to the Flight Manual for instructions.
The certificated empt y weight and corresponding center of gravity location must include unusable fuel of 26
lb. (120) and undrainable oil of 2.2 lb. (162.2 for models SE 3130, SE 313B and 172.5 for models SA 3180,
SA 318B and SA 318C).
NOTE 2: The following placards must be displayed:
(1) In full view of the pilot:
(a) "This helicopter must be operated in compliance with the operating limitations specified in the
SGAC approved helicopter Flight Manual".
(b) "Never exceed speeds. Variation of Vne with altitude and weight".
