Thanks Stan

Very interesting to see that New Zealand CAA is much more enlightened regarding ‘Part 115’ Certification.

Sadly the UK CAA and EASA in Europe are still a long way from this.
For example the parts you manufacture, could not be fitted to C of A or CAA Permit aircraft in the UK unless you become a CAA approved manufacturer. (One organisation has been seeking this status for more than two years, has spent hundreds of thousands of pounds and the CAA are still prevaricating!)

There is a meeting this week between the HAA Engineering Group and the CAA to discuss ongoing airworthiness certification of older aircraft. I have forwarded the Part 115 documents to the HAA members taking part!
