    OPS Part 4

    Updated: Sep 27, 2019

    PRESSURIZED AIRCRAFTS


    1) Occupants of flight crew compartment seats (Crew Compartment Duty)

    (a) Entire flying time above 13000'

    (b) 13000' > Pressure Altitude > 10000' after the initial 30 minutes

    => 30 mins supply for aeroplanes certified to fly at altitudes < 25000'

    => 2 hours supply for aeroplanes certified to fly at altitudes > 25000'


    2) Required cabin crew members

    (a) Entire flying time above 13000' (> 30 minutes' supply)

    (b) Remainder of flying time; 13000' > Pressure Altitude > 10000' after the initial 30 minutes


    3) ALL PASSENGERS (passengers actually on board including infants!)

    Entire Flying time when pressure altitude > 13000' (> 10 minutes supply)


    4) 30% passengers (passengers actually on board including infants!)

    Entire flying time when 15000' > PA > 14000'


    5) 10% of passengers (passengers actually on board including infants!)

    Remainder of flying time when 14000' > PA > 10000' (after initial 30 minutes)



    ___________


    If MCTOM > 5700 kg you need at least one crash axe or crowbar in flight crew compartment

    If MCTOM > 5700 kg AND you have MOPSC > 200, you need BOTH (in rearmost galley area)


    ORO = Organisation Requirements of Air Operations



    AIR OPS, planning MINIMA for destination aerodrome (or heliport) for PRECISION APPROACH => RVR / visibility in accordance with AIR OPS, Part-CAT


    Black = CO2

    Blue = dry power

    Cream = foam

    Green = vapourising liquids

    Red = water

    Yellow = wet Chemical


    The aircraft is operated under the AOC of the person to whom it is leased = DRY LEASE


    Additional Fuel > Fuel for 2 hours at normal cruise consumption (including Final Reserve Fuel)


    MDH is referred to runway threshold elevation instead of aerodrome elevation if runway threshold > 1m (7') below aerodrome elevation


    Straight-in VOR = RVR/ Visibility, MDA/H, DA/H


    Emergency; usable fuel on landing at nearest adequate aerodrome for safe landing < final reserve fuel
