of 27 January 2014

amending Regulation (EU) No 748/2012 laying down implementing rules for the airworthiness and environmental certification of aircraft and related products, parts and appliances, as well as for the certification of design and production organisations

(Text with EEA relevance)

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 216/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 20 February 2008 on common rules in the field of civil aviation and establishing a European Aviation Safety Agency, and repealing Council Directive 91/670/EEC, Regulation (EC) No 1592/2002 and Directive 2004/36/EC(1), and in particular Article 5(5) thereof,

Whereas:

(1) Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 216/2008 dealing with airworthiness was extended to include the elements of operational suitability evaluation into the implementing rules for type-certification.

(2) The European Aviation Safety Agency (the ‘Agency’) found that it was necessary to amend Commission Regulation (EU) No 748/2012(2) in order to allow the Agency to approve operational suitability data as part of the type-certification process.

(3) The Agency prepared draft implementing rules on the concept of operational suitability data and submitted them as an opinion(3) to the Commission in accordance with Article 19(1) of Regulation (EC) No 216/2008.

(4) Article 5 of Regulation (EU) No 748/2012 derives from Article 2c of Commission Regulation (EC) No 1702/2003(4). Article 2c of Regulation (EC) No 1702/2003 was introduced for a temporary grandfathering of types that were not grandfathered by Article 2a of Regulation (EC) No 1702/2003. As this transitional regime ended definitively on 28 September 2009, Article 5 of Regulation (EU) No 748/2012 should be deleted.

(5) In order to avoid confusion and legal uncertainty with regard to Article 3, points 21.A.16A, 21.A.16B, 21.A.17, 21.A.31, 21.A.101 and 21.A.174 of Annex I (Part 21) to Regulation (EU) No 748/2012, it is necessary to replace the references to ‘airworthiness codes’ with ‘certification specifications’.

(6) In order to avoid confusion and legal uncertainty with regard to points 21.A.4, 21.A.90A, 21.A.90B, 21.A.91, 21.A.92, 21.A.93, 21.A.95, 21.A.97, 21.A.103, 21.A.107, 21.A.109, 21.A.111, 21.A.263 and 21.A.435 of Annex I (Part 21) to Regulation (EU) No 748/2012, it is necessary to replace the references to ‘type design’ with ‘type-certificate’.

(7) Regulation (EU) No 748/2012 should therefore be amended accordingly.

(8) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee established by Article 65 of Regulation (EC) No 216/2008,
