Only for applicant or holder of a design
approval (TC, STC, changes, repairs…)

European Aviation Safety Agency
Part 21 Subpart J DOA
Rationales for JAR 21 Subpart JB
deletion (1)
not immediately related to design approval
certificates
considered outside of the scope of the Basic
Regulation, Article 5(2)(d)
absence of privileges
more a kind of “label”, facilitating relationship
between subcontractors and main design
organisations in charge of the certification of
complete products.

European Aviation Safety Agency
Part 21 Subpart J DOA
Rationales for JAR 21 Subpart JB
deletion (2)

Aviation Authority.
same objective can be achieved by Industry

Slide 10
European Aviation Safety Agency
Part 21 Subpart J DOA
Agreement to re-discuss the concept
to keep for the first issue of Part 21 only
design organisation approvals directly related
to certificates
to recommend for further Agency activity the
evaluation of possible new privileges taking
into account the actual Industry environment
This will allow a complete assessment of the
situation and the development of appropriate
solutions, fully in line with the functions to be
exercised by an Aviation Safety Agency.
