ORS4 No.1589 Upper Torso Restraint for Crew Seats - Robinson R44 and R22 Helicopters

To allow some commercial air transport (CAT) operators to continue to operate Robinson R22 and R44 helicopters with a restraint system on the flight crew seats having a seat belt and a diagonal shoulder strap, the UK was granted a derogation in 2015 from CAT.IDE.H.205 (b)(2) of Annex IV to UK Regulation (EU) No. 965/2012. The approvals for R44 helicopters were only applicable to those with a first individual Certificate of Airworthiness issued before 28 October 2014.

This exemption is published to provide for the continued CAT operation of the affected helicopters.

Superseded and revoked by ORS4 No.1645.
