Article 15(2)(d)

SCHEDULE 1Conditions referred to in article 15(2)(d)

1.  An aircraft registered in the Isle of Man may fly for a purpose set out in paragraph 2 or 3 subject to the conditions contained in paragraphs 4 to 7 when either—

(a)it does not have a certificate of airworthiness duly issued or rendered valid under the law of the Isle of Man; or

(b)the certificate of airworthiness or the certificate of validation issued under article 16 issued for the aircraft has ceased to be in force by virtue of any of the matters specified in article 17.

2.  The purposes in the case of an aircraft falling within paragraph 1(a) are that the aircraft may fly only so as to enable it to—

(a)qualify for the issue, renewal or validation of a certificate of airworthiness after an application has been made for such issue, renewal or validation, or carry out a functional check of a previously approved modification of the aircraft;

(b)proceed to or from a place at which any inspection, repair, modification, maintenance, approval, test or weighing of, or the installation of equipment in, the aircraft is to take place or has taken place for a purpose referred to in sub-paragraph (a), after any relevant application has been made, or at which the installation of furnishings in, or the painting of, the aircraft is to be undertaken; or

(c)proceed to or from a place at which the aircraft is to be or has been stored.

3.  The purposes in the case of an aircraft falling within paragraph 1(b) are that the aircraft may fly only so as to enable it to—

(a)proceed to a place at which any maintenance or inspection required by article 17(1)(b) is to take place; or

(b)proceed to a place at which any maintenance, inspection or modification required by article 17(1)(c), (d) or (e) is to take place and for which flight the Department has given permission in writing; or

(c)carry out a functional check, test or in-flight adjustment in connection with the carrying out in a manner approved by the Department of any overhaul, repair, previously approved modification, inspection or maintenance required by article 17.

4.  The aircraft, including any modifications, must be of a design which previously has been approved by the Department, or by an organisation approved for that purpose by the Department, as being compliant with a standard accepted by the Department as appropriate for the issue of a certificate of airworthiness.

5.  The aircraft and its engines must be certified as fit for flight by the holder of an aircraft maintenance engineer’s licence granted under this Order, being a licence which entitles the holder to issue that certificate or by a person approved by the Department for the purpose of issuing certificates under this condition, and in accordance with that approval.

6.  The aircraft must carry the minimum flight crew specified in any certificate of airworthiness or validation or flight manual which has previously been in force under this Order for the aircraft, or is or has previously been in force for any other aircraft of identical design.

7.  The aircraft must not carry any persons or cargo except persons performing duties in the aircraft in connection with the flight or persons who are carried in the aircraft to perform duties in connection with a purpose specified in paragraph 2 or 3.

8.  For the purpose of this Schedule “a previously approved modification” means a modification which has previously been approved by the Department or by an organisation approved for that purpose by the Department for that aircraft or another aircraft of the same type.

(3) The letters must be without ornamentation.

(4) A hyphen must be placed between the nationality mark and the registration mark.

(5) The nationality and registration marks must be displayed to the best advantage, taking into consideration the constructional features of the aircraft and must always be kept clean and visible.

(6) The letters constituting each group of marks must—

(a)be of equal height; and

(b)together with the hyphen, all be of the same single colour which must clearly contrast with the background on which they appear.

(7) The nationality and registration marks must also be inscribed on a fire-proof metal plate affixed in a prominent position—

(a)in the case of a microlight aeroplane, either on the fuselage or car or on the wing;

(b)in the case of a balloon, on the basket or envelope;

(c)in the case of any other aircraft on the fuselage or car.

(8) The nationality and registration marks must be painted on the aircraft, or affixed to the aircraft by any other means ensuring a similar degree of permanence, in the manner specified in paragraphs 2, 3 and 4 of this Part.

Position and size of marks – heavier than air aircraft

2.—(1) The position and size of marks on heavier than air aircraft (excluding kites) must be as specified in this paragraph.

(2) On such aircraft having a fixed wing surface—

(e)if one of the surfaces authorised for displaying the required marks is large enough for those marks to be 300 millimetres in height (whilst complying with sub-paragraph (g)) and the other is not, marks of 300 millimetres in height must be placed on the largest authorised surface;

(f)if neither authorised surface is large enough for marks of 300 millimetres in height (whilst complying with sub-paragraph (g)), marks of the greatest height practicable in the circumstances must be displayed on the larger of the two authorised surfaces;

(g)marks on the vertical tail surfaces must be such as to leave a margin of at least 50 millimetres along each side of the vertical tail surface.

(4) On rotary wing aircraft where owing to the structure of the aircraft the greatest height practicable for the marks on the side of the fuselage (or equivalent structure) is less than 300 millimetres —
