Transition Corrective action plan Agreement on future CB Follow-up on open findings Evidence of implementation of corrective actions Agreement on future CB Based on the compliance matrix Agreement on deviations and safety assessment principles Preparation of application for conversion Proper documentation Agree on manner and form of application (described in PIAC-AD-139, Part I) Iași, 14.09.2016
Application for conversion Compliance matrix – lack of proper documentation AMC1 ADR.OR.B.015(b)(1);(2);(3);(4) Application for a certificate c) The applicant should identify the applicable CS (…) and provide the Competent Authority with evidence that the proposed design and operation complies with them. d) The applicant should provide the Competent Authority documentation to demonstrate how it will comply with the applicable requirements of the Basic Regulation, Part-ADR.OR, and Part-ADR.OPS, and any other applicable requirements that are matching the aerodrome design and its operation. situation assessed in compliance matrix does not fully reflects on-site status Compliance evidence Elements for which the maintenance objective could not be demonstrated Elements contained in the corrective action plan New requirements under EU Regulation For elements supporting a safety assessment Iași, 14.09.2016
Application for conversion Safety assessments Fewer safety assessments in respect to the number of deviations identified Defining the purpose of the study Incomplete documentation of associated risks Mitigation measures do not fully reflect the safety objective Lack of relevant database regarding occurrences Appropriate to the ADR characteristics Relevant for the type of aircrafts used Iași, 14.09.2016
Application for conversion Safety assessments [GM] The Competent Authority should evaluate the safety assessment and, in particular, make sure that: (1) the identified safety concern(s) has (have) been assessed through the safety assessment process and is (are) adequately documented. (2) an appropriate coordination has been performed between the parties affected by the safety concern(s); (3) the assessment covers the whole system and the interactions of its elements; (4) the hazards have been properly identified and the level of risk assessed; (5) the proposed mitigation measures are adequate and consistent with the objective of reducing the identified level of risk and the safety objectives, if relevant; (6) the timeframes of the planned implementation of the proposed associated actions are appropriate.

Conversion - Deviations Objects on runway strips [CS ADR-DSN.B.165] (a) An object situated on a runway strip which may endanger aeroplanes should be regarded as an obstacle and should, as far as practicable, be removed. (c) To eliminate a buried vertical surface, a slope should be provided which extends from the top of the construction to not less than 0.3 m below ground level. The slope should be no greater than 1:10.
