PROCEDURES FOR COMPETENT AUTHORITIES

SUBPART A –   GENERAL PROVISIONS

(reserved)

SUBPART B –   TYPE CERTIFICATES

21L.B.41   Certification specifications

The Agency, in accordance with Article 76(3) of Regulation (EU) 2018/1139, shall issue certification specifications and other detailed specifications, including certification specifications for airworthiness, and environmental compatibility that competent authorities, organisations and personnel may use to demonstrate the compliance of products and parts with the relevant essential requirements set out in Annexes II, IV and V to that Regulation, as well as with those for environmental protection set out in Article 9(2) of and Annex III to that Regulation. Such specifications shall be sufficiently detailed and specific to indicate to applicants the conditions under which certificates are to be issued, amended or supplemented.

21L.B.42   Initial investigation

  • (a) Upon receiving an application for a type certificate under this Annex, the Agency shall verify whether the product is within the scope established in point 21L.A.21 and whether the applicant is eligible in accordance with point 21L.A.22 to apply for a type certificate for the product.
  • (b) When the conditions of point (a) are not fulfilled, the Agency shall reject the application.

21L.B.43   Type-certification basis for a type certificate

  • (a) The Agency shall establish the type-certification basis and notify it to the applicant. The type-certification basis shall consist of:
    1. the certification specifications for airworthiness designated by the Agency from those applicable to the product at the date of application for that certificate, unless:
  • (i) the applicant chooses to comply with certification specifications which became applicable after the date of the application; if an applicant chooses to comply with a certification specification which became applicable after the date of the application, the Agency shall include in the type-certification basis any other certification specification that is directly related; or
  • (ii) the Agency accepts any alternative to a designated certification specification that cannot be complied with, for which compensating factors have been found that provide an equivalent level of safety; or
  • (iii) the Agency accepts or prescribes other means that demonstrate compliance with the essential requirements of Annex II to Regulation (EU) 2018/1139;
    1. any special condition prescribed by the Agency in accordance with point 21L.B.44(a).
  • (b) The Agency may amend the type-certification basis at any point before the issuance of the type certificate if it has determined that experience from other similar products in service, or products that have similar design features, has shown that unsafe conditions may develop, and the type-certification basis that was established and notified to the applicant does not address this unsafe condition.

21L.B.44   Special conditions

  • (a) The Agency shall prescribe special detailed technical specifications, named ‘special conditions’, for a product if the related certification specifications do not contain adequate or appropriate safety standards for the product because:
    1. the product has novel or unusual design features relative to the design practices on which the applicable certification specifications are based;
    1. the intended use of the product is unconventional; or
    1. experience from other similar products in service or products having similar design features or newly identified hazards have shown that unsafe conditions may develop.
  • (b) Special conditions contain such safety standards as the Agency finds necessary in order to establish a level of safety equivalent to that of the applicable certification specifications.

21L.B.45   Designation of the applicable environmental protection requirements for a type certificate

The Agency shall designate and notify to the applicant for a type certificate for an aircraft or for an engine, the applicable environmental requirements in accordance with point 21.B.85 of Annex I (Part 21).

If the Agency, through its continuing airworthiness oversight, including through reports received in accordance with point 21L.A.3, or by any other means, detects a non-compliance with the type-certification basis or the applicable environmental protection requirements, the Agency shall raise a finding in accordance with point 21L.B.21, or issue an airworthiness directive under the conditions of point 21L.B.23.

21L.B.49   Transfer of a type certificate

  • (a) When the Agency receives an application for verification of whether a type certificate can be transferred by its holder in accordance with point 21L.A.29 or when the Agency considers a request to adopt a type certificate in accordance with point 21L.A.29, the Agency shall verify corresponding to points 21L.B.42 and 21L.B.46 whether the transferee is eligible to be a type-certificate holder in accordance with point 21L.A.22 and is able to undertake the obligations of a type-certificate holder under point 21L.A.28.
  • (b) When the Agency concludes that the conditions referred to in point (a) are met by the transferee, it shall inform the type-certificate holder or the natural or legal person requesting to adopt a type certificate that a transfer of the type certificate to that natural or legal person is accepted by the Agency.

  • (a) conduct a review of the initial compliance demonstration plan and any subsequent update provided by the applicant in order to establish the completeness of the plan and the appropriateness of the proposed means and methods of demonstrating compliance with the type-certification basis and the applicable environmental protection requirements established and designated in accordance with point 21L.B.101; if the compliance demonstration plan is incomplete or the means and methods are not appropriate to achieve compliance demonstration, the Agency shall inform the applicant and request an amendment of it;
  • (b) when satisfied that the compliance demonstration plan provided is appropriate so that the applicant can demonstrate compliance, approve the compliance demonstration plan and any subsequent updates of the compliance demonstration plan;
  • (c) determine the likelihood of an unidentified non-compliance of the major change with the type-certification basis or the applicable environmental protection requirements, and the potential impact of that non-compliance on the safety or environmental compatibility of the product, and determine on that basis whether a physical inspection and assessment of the first article of that product in the final changed configuration is necessary in order to verify the compliance of the product with the applicable type-certification basis and the applicable environmental protection requirements, taking into consideration the critical design review if carried out in accordance with point (a) of point 21L.B.242; the Agency shall notify the applicant before conducting this inspection and assessment;
  • (d) if during the establishment of the type-certification basis, the designation of the applicable environmental protection requirements or during the review of the compliance demonstration plan, the Agency determines that the major change to the design contains any element for which an unidentified non-compliance with the type-certification basis or the applicable environmental protection requirements may have an adverse impact on the safety or environmental compatibility of the changed product, the Agency shall determine which investigations are necessary in addition to those of point (c) in order to verify the compliance demonstration; the Agency shall notify the applicant of those additional investigations and which elements of the design would be subject to this investigation.
