OVERSIGHT OF AN OPERATOR CONVERSION COURSE (OCC) FOR MULTI-CREW PILOT
LICENCE (MPL) HOLDERS
As part of the initial certification or the continuing oversight of an operator, the CAA should include the
assessment of the OCC provided to MPL holders, who undertake their first conversion course on a
new type or at an operator other than the one that was involved in their training for the MPL.
The assessment of the OCC should evaluate whether the operator, in the process of development of
the OCC, took the following aspects into account:
- the time elapsed after completion of the initial training, between base training and hiring,
and the Line Flying Under Supervision (LIFUS);
- the necessary feedback loop between the Approved Training Organisation (ATO) and the
operator involved in the licence training.
ARO.GEN.300(d) GM1 Oversight
ACTIVITIES WITHIN THE TERRITORY OF THE MEMBER STATE
(a) Activities performed in the territory of the Member State by persons or organisations
established or residing in another Member State include:
(1) activities of:
(i) organisations certified or authorised by or declaring their activity to the
competent authority of any other Member State or the Agency; or
(ii) persons performing operations with other-than-complex motor-powered
aircraft; and
(2) activities of persons holding a licence, certificate, rating, or attestation issued by the
competent authority of any other Member State.
(b) Audits and inspections of such activities, including ramp and unannounced inspections,
should be prioritised towards those areas of greater safety concern, as identified through
the analysis of data on safety hazards and their consequences in operations.
ARO.GEN.305 Oversight programme
(a) The CAA shall establish and maintain an oversight programme covering the oversight
activities required by ARO.GEN.300 and by ARO.RAMP.
(b) For organisations certified by the CAA, the oversight programme shall be developed
taking into account the specific nature of the organisation, the complexity of its activities,
the results of past certification and/or oversight activities required by ARO.GEN and
ARO.RAMP and shall be based on the assessment of associated risks. It shall include
within each oversight planning cycle:
(1) audits and inspections, including ramp and unannounced inspections as
appropriate; and
(2) meetings convened between the accountable manager and the CAA to ensure both
remain informed of significant issues.
(c) For organisations certified by the CAA an oversight planning cycle not exceeding 24
months shall be applied.
The oversight planning cycle may be reduced if there is evidence that the safety
performance of the organisation has decreased.
The oversight planning cycle may be extended to a maximum of 36 months if the CAA has
established that, during the previous 24 months:
(1) the organisation has demonstrated an effective identification of aviation safety
hazards and management of associated risks;
(2) the organisation has continuously demonstrated under ORO.GEN.130 that it has
full control over all changes;
(3) no level 1 findings have been issued; and
(4) all corrective actions have been implemented within the time period accepted or
extended by the CAA as defined in ARO.GEN.350(d)(2).
The oversight planning cycle may be further extended to a maximum of 48 months if, in
