The Ainendment introduces requireinents for the safe- guarding and preservation of flight recorder records of aeroplanes involved in accidents and incidents provision and use of flight crew restraining devices procedures to be followed in the event of excessive cosinic radiation exposure during flight and the main- tenance of records for crew members on total cosmic radiation dosages. The Amendment also provides amplification of the specifications for the type of time-piece required for operations in amiance with Instrument Flight Rules and controlled VFR flights and provides a cross-reference to guidance material on SST fuel supplies. The opportunity presented by this Amendment was also taken to introduce changes to the Annex as a result of the adoption by the Council of amendments to companion documents - Annex 3 and Annex 14. These changes consist of the elimination of reference to PANS-MET and the revision of the definitions of Aerodrome, Runway Visual Range, Take-off Run Available and Landing Distance Available. Amendment 10 was adopted by the Council on 16 June 1976, became effective on 16 October 1976, and applicable on 6 October 1977. The Amendment requires the carriage of survival radio equipment over those areas in which search and rescue would be especially difficult as determined by States rather than regional air navigation agreement. Amendment 11 was adopted by the Council on 23 June 1977, became effective on 23 October 1977 and applicable on 23 Feb- ruary 1978. The amendment requires the operator to establish operational procedures designed to ensure that an aeroplane conducting precision approaches crosses the threshold by a safe margin. Applicability The present edition of Annex 6, I'art I, contains Standards and Recommended Practices adopted by the Intel-national Civil Aviation Organization as the minimum Standards applicable to the oneration of aerolanes in schediled international air services and in non-schediled international air transport operations for remuneration or hire. In conjunction, these two types of operutions include all inter- national air transport operutions conducted for remitneration or hire by aeroplanes. The distinction between them lies in the fact that scheditled international air services are especially provided for in the Convention in contradistinction to international air trans- port operiitions in general, of which non-scheduled international air transport operations for renrtneration or hire were considered most urgently to require the establishment of International Standards and Recommended Practices. The pilrpose of Annex 6, Part I, is to contribute to the safety of intel-national air navigation by providing criteria of safe operating practice and to contribute to the efficiency and regularity of inter- national air navigation by encouraging States to facilitate the passage over their territories of aeroplanes in international com- nisrcial air transport belonging to other States that operate in conformity with such Standards. Chapter 5 An element of the safety of an operation is the intrinsic safety of the aircraft, that is, its level of airworthiness. The level of air- worthiness of an aircruft is, however, not fully defined by the application of the airworthiness Standards of Annex 8, but also As originally adopted and also as amended by Amendments I to 138, the Annex contained a chapter "Aeroplane Operating Limitations" which included general provisions applicable to the operation of all acroplancs within the scope of the Annex, a scction or sections applicable to aeroplanes certificated in ICAO categories iiccol-ding to the then existent Annex 8, and a section applicable to acroplnnes not so certificated. At its fvirlh session, the Operations Division, collaborating with the Airworthiness Division, nade, in addition to the proposals that resilltcd in Amendments 128 to 133, recommenda- tions concerning the use of a performance code as an alternative to the one prescribed for ICAO Category A aeroplanes in which some essential climb values had the status of Recommended Practices. Further, the Airworthiness Division tnade recomnien- dations concerning certain aspects of the certification in ICAO categories. As a result of those recommendations, the Council, on 2 December 1952, adopted Arliendment 134 which became ef- fective I May 1953, and approved the incorporation of the alternative performance code as Attachment A, but stated its belief that since agreement had not yet been reached upon Standards covering performance, there existed no basis for certification in ICAO Category A. It urged the Contracting States to refrain from such certification pending the becoming effective of Standards on performance or until such time as the Council decides on the basic policy on airworthiness. The Assembly at its seventh session June 1953 endorsed the action already taken by the Council and the Air Navigation Com- niission to initiate a fundamental study of ICAO policy on inter- national airworthiness and directed the Council to complete the study as rapidly as practicable. In pursuing such study the Air Navigation Commission was helped by an international body of experts designated as the "Airworthiness Panel", which contributed to the preparation of the work of the Third Air Navigation Conference. As a msult of these studies a revised policy on international airworthiness was developed and it was approved by the Council in 1956. According to this policy the principle of certification in an lCAO Category was abandoned. Instead. Annex 8 included broad Standards which defined, for application by the competent national authorities, the complete minimum international basis for the recognition by States of certificates of airworthiness for the purpose of the fht of aircraft of pther States into or over their territories, thereby achieving, among other purposes, protection of other aircraft, third persons and property. It was considered that this met the obligation of the Organization under Article 37 of the Convention to adopt international Standards of airworthiness. It was recognized that the lCAO Standards of airworthiness would not replace national regulations and that national codes of airworthiness containing the full scope and extent of detail considered necessary by individual States would be necessary as the basis for the certification of individual aircraft. Each State would establish its own comprehensive and detailed code of airworthiness, or would select a comprehensive and detailed code established by another Contracting State. The level of airworthi- ness defined by this code would be indicated by the Standards, supplemented, if necessary, by Acceptable Means of Compliance. A revised text consistent with the above principles was prepared for Chapter 5 of Annex 6. It included a broad Standards that 23/2/78 No. 11
