Import Requirements A United States airworthiness certificate may be issued on the basis of an Australian
Export Certificate of Airworthiness signed by a representative of the Civil Aviation
Safety Authority (CASA) containing the following statement:
GA200: “The airplane covered by this certificate has been examined, tested and found
to comply with the Master Drawing List GA200-01-02-01 Issue 1 and General
Specifications B14-00-31 at issue G or later CASA approved revisions approved under
U.S. Type Certificate No. A00001LA and to be in a condition for safe operation.”
GA200C: “The airplane covered by this certificate has been examined, tested and found
to comply with the Master Drawing List GA200-01-02-06 Issue 1 and General
Specifications B14-00-31 at issue B or later CASA approved revisions approved under
U.S. Type Certificate No. A00001LA and to be in a condition for safe operation.”
The U.S. airworthiness certification basis for this airplane type certificated under FAR
21.29 and exported by the country of manufacture is FAR 21.185(c).
Refer to the applicable bilateral agreement to verify eligibility for import into the United
States of both new and used aircraft based on the scope of the agreement, to identify any
required statements by the exporting authority on the export certificate of airworthiness
(or equivalent document), and for procedures for coordinating exceptions to conformity
statements on these documents. Refer to FAA Order 8130.2, Airworthiness Certification
of Aircraft, for requirements for issuance of an airworthiness certificate for imported
aircraft
Certification Basis FAR 21.25 (a) (1), FAR 21.25 (b) (1), FAR 21.25 (b)(2) and FAR 23, dated
December 18, 1964, with amendments 1 through 36 “Airworthiness Standards for
Normal Category Airplanes”, except Section 23.562 (see letter dated April 5, 1995, from
Manager, LAACO) for the special purpose of:
(1) Agricultural operations under FAR 21.25 (b)(1).
Note: In accordance with FAR 36.1(a)(2), compliance with the noise requirements was
not shown. Therefore, airplane certificated under this Type Certificate are only eligible
for agricultural operations excepted by FAR 36.1(a)(2) and defined under FAR 137.3.
(2) Forest and wildlife conservation under FAR 21.25(b)(2).
Note: In accordance with FAR 36.1(a)(2), compliance with the noise requirements was
not shown. Therefore, airplane certificated under this Type Certificate are only eligible
for dispensing fire fighting materials excepted by FAR 36.1(a)(2) and defined under FAR
137.3.
Noise Control Act of 1972, which has been recodified into USC Title 49, Section
44715(a)(3).
See Note 6 for a finding of an equivalent level of safety to the requirements of FAR
23.1337(b)(1).

TC A00001LA issued on October 15, 1997.
Date of application for the Type Certificate (Restricted Category for agricultural use and
dispensing fire retardant only): June 17, 1994.
Equipment The basic required equipment as prescribed in the applicable airworthiness regulations
(see Certification Basis) must be installed in the airplane for certification.
In addition the FAA Approved Airplane Flight Manual Report No B01-01-21 dated
October 8, 1997, or later approved version, must be carried. See Note 6.
Note 1. A current weight and balance report, including a list of equipment included in the
certificated empty weight, and loading instructions when necessary, must be provided for
each airplane at the time of original certification.
GA200: The certificated empty weight and the corresponding center of gravity location
must include full oil (22.2 lbs. at -21.3 inches) and unusable fuel (15.6 lbs. in main tanks
at + 54.0 inches and 19.2 lbs. in header tank at + 11.9 inches).
GA200C: The certificated empty weight and the corresponding center of gravity location
must include full oil (22.5 lbs. at -21.3 inches) and unusable fuel (15.6 lbs. in main tanks
at +54.0 inches and 14.4 lbs. in collector tank at +62.2 inches).
Note 2. All required placards in the CASA Approved Pilot’s Operating Manual (for the FAA)
and the FAA Approved Airplane Flight Manual must be installed in the appropriate
locations.
The following placard must be installed in plain view of the pilot:
“Restricted Category airplane for agricultural use and dispensing fire retardant only”
The following placards must be installed in plain view of the occupants:
A. “All occupants must wear an approved crash helmet when operating this aircraft”.
B. “The use of the second seat is restricted by requirements in FAR 91.313.”
C. Other placards as per approved Pilot’s Operating Handbook and FAA Approved
Airplane Flight Manual, Report B01-01-21 for the GA200 and Report GA200 B01-
01-26 for the GA200C.
Note 3. Service life of structural components are listed in the Airworthiness Limitations Section,
Chapter 4, of the Service Manual. The Airworthiness Limitations Section was approved
by CASA (for the FAA). Revisions to this section must be approved by CASA on behalf
of the FAA. The relevant report numbers for these manuals are: GA200 – B01-00-21
and GA200C – B01-00-26
Note 4. Instructions for continued airworthiness must be completed and acceptable to the
Administrator prior to the delivery of the first airplane under the US Type Certificate.

Note 6. GA200: Equivalent level of safety finding No. ACE-97-2. The fuel quantity indicators
and corresponding markings for the wing and header tanks provide an equivalent level of
safety to the requirements of FAR 23.1337 (b)(1).
GA200C: Equivalent level of safety finding No. ACE-99-04. The fuel quantity
indicators and corresponding markings for the wing and collector tanks provide an
