Reply Text
The CAA has considered the final recommendation to amend its policies and procedures for issuing certificates of airworthiness for imported second-hand aircraft.

Notwithstanding the evidence already provided earlier to the Commission that addressed the issue, the CAA will accept the final recommendation as part of a programme that will see a more holistic/capability approach for an aircraft type acceptance process.
