Initial vs Continuing Airworthiness
• Initial & Continued Airworthiness: – Type Design – Certification – Production – Design changes post initial type certification – Repair designs
• Continuing Airworthiness: – All of the processes ensuring that the aircraft:
• complies with airworthiness requirements • is in condition for safe operation • Supported within a ‘Controlled Environment’

DASR Language
Key to effective application of the DASRs is to understand the meaning of the ‘Language’ used:
• Use of uncommon terms • Translation issues (inconsistent use of terms)
• Civil aviation language/alignment
• ‘Plain’ Language application

Airworthiness Definition
• DASR definition of airworthiness – The ability of an aircraft, or other airborne equipment or system, to
operate in flight and on ground without significant hazard to aircrew, ground-crew, passengers (where relevant) or to other third parties.
• Derived from UK MOD JSP 553 Military Airworthiness Requirements
• Consistent with EASA use of this term and ICAO definition of “Airworthy” – The status of an aircraft, engine, propeller or part when it conforms to its
approved design and is in a condition for safe operation
“Focus on the Air Vehicle”
27

DASR Definitions (1/2) Certification. Recognition that a product, part or appliance, organisation or person complies with the applicable airworthiness requirements followed by the declaration of compliance.
Continued (design) airworthiness. All tasks to be carried out to verify that the conditions under which a Type Certificate (TC) or Supplemental Type Certificate (STC) has been granted continue to be fulfilled at any time during its period of validity.
Military Type Certificate (MTC). Recognition that a product complies with the applicable airworthiness requirements.
Type Certificate Holder. The organisation responsible for the relevant type design and applying for, and then holding, the TC and accepting the rights and obligations for the product.
28
DASR Background – DASR
UNCLASSIFIED
UNCLASSIFIED
Type Certification Basis. An agreed set of airworthiness requirements a product must be compliant with in order to obtain a TC. For more details see EMAR 21.
Type Design. The minimum set of approved design information necessary to define the product type, as detailed in EMAR 21.A.31.
Derogation. “An alternative to.”
Airworthiness vs. Technical DASR. Elements of a ‘Technical’ nature are embedded across most of the DASR. ‘Airworthiness’ relates to Initial and Continuing.

21.A.91 – Classification of changes • Changes in type design are classified as minor or major.
– A ‘minor change’ is one that has no appreciable effect on the mass, balance, structural strength, reliability, operational characteristics, or other characteristics affecting the airworthiness of the product
• MDOA holders may be privileged to classify designs as minor or major
• When in doubt – consult with the authority for classification
62
Subpart D – changes to MTC
UNCLASSIFIED
UNCLASSIFIED
– Appendix A to GM 21.A.91 - Examples of Major Changes per
discipline
• Structural changes especially those impacting static strength or fatigue
• Cabin safety inc egress and crashworthiness
• Performance and handling inc flight envelope changes
• Catastrophic/hazardous Consequence software changes
• Most changes to engines and propellers
• Changes to rotor/drive systems on helicopters and systems that might
induce a hazardous/catastrophic failure consequence (lubrication and
cooling systems)
• New operational capabilities
63
Subpart D – changes to MTC
Examples:
UNCLASSIFIED
UNCLASSIFIED
Changes to Type Design
• Only the MTC Holder can apply for an approval of a major change to the type design
• Any organisation may apply for a minor change to type design
• Under DASR:
• Only the MTCH will be issued with a major change approval
64

UNCLASSIFIED 65
Subpart D – changes to MTC
• 21.A.95 – Minor Changes • Minor changes in a type design shall be classified and
approved either: – By the Authority; or – By an appropriately approved design organisation under a
procedure agreed with the Authority.
• 21.A.97 – Major Changes – Approved by DASA
– DASA will have direct involvement in the approval process – Applicant signs declaration of compliance – Applicant still liable for the design – Holder responsible for continued airworthiness
UNCLASSIFIED
UNCLASSIFIED
• 21.A.101 - Designation of applicable Airworthiness codes (Changed Product Rule): – Comply with the current Airworthiness code; – Comply with an earlier amendment of the airworthiness
code applicable to the change (must be at least as recent as the code in effect when the aircraft was type certified); or
– Where the authority deems the airworthiness codes in effect are not sufficient they may specify special conditions
• Guidance material is very extensive
66
Subpart D – changes to MTC
UNCLASSIFIED
UNCLASSIFIED
• A Military Supplemental Type-Certificate (MSTC) certifies the approval of a major change to Type Design
• Under TAREGs, issuance of a MSTC went through the full AwB process including SR
• With the change to DASRs, DASA will issue MSTCs
