Regulation Reform Initiative Investigation of ICAO based regulation suites CASA / FAA / EASA Investigation of foreign military airworthiness regulation / mutual recognition USA, UK, NZ 10 Principles of Better Aviation Regulation Conclusion New Defence Aviation Safety Regulation is warranted Model off EASA framework

Why model DASR off EASA Most contemporary, ICAO based, aviation safety regulations Best addresses principles for better aviation regulation Existence of a militarised set of technical Regulation European Military Airworthiness Requirements

Example of future DASR

Example of future DASR

Technical DASRs – on aircraft EMAR Part 21: Certification of military aircraft and related products, parts and appliances and Design and Production Organisations : Adopt EMAR Part M: Continuing Airworthiness Requirements: Adopt EMAR Part 145 : Requirements for Maintenance Organisations : Adopt EMAR 66: Military Aircraft Maintenance Licensing Adapt EMAR Part 147: Aircraft Maintenance Training Organisations : Adapt

Technical DASRs – off aircraft EMAR do not cover, off-aircraft products Model off regulation other than EASA/EMAR to address aviation safety for off-aircraft aviation technical materiel Consider the use of relevance of existing safety obligations and systems of management (eg Legislation (WHS/ARPANSA, etc), ISO 9100/9001/NATA, etc) for design / production / sustainment of off-aircraft aviation technical materiel For example a Army used Mack truck falls under Commonwealth legislation (WHS) and TRAMML and does not require additional DGTA-ADF oversight For example aircraft tug is an industrial vehicle falls under Commonwealth legislation (WHS) and not TRAMML and not EMAR. In future DASR environment the organisations that operate or maintain may require to be ISO xx or equivalent.

Implementation Plan DGTA-ADF and ACPA responsible for regulation development Transition will be segmented Opportunities for early adopters Jan 16 : Draft regulations released Dec 16 : New DASR promulgated subject to Defence AA approval Dec 18 : Extant Defence Airworthiness Regulations (MILAVREG, OAREG, TAREG) no longer supported
