As reported by Australian Aviation.com.au on Friday, Federal Minister for Infrastructure and Transport Darren Chester announced ex-military, replica ex-military and certain historic aircraft would be covered under a new Part 132 of the Civil Aviation Safety Regulations (CASR).
Part 132 will commence on January 28 2017, with transition to the new regulation required by July 28 2017, and replaces the current arrangements, where ex-military, replica and historic aircraft operate under a special certificate of airworthiness in the limited category, or as experimental aircraft, under a special set of conditions.
Under the new regulations, operators of warbirds would have to be registered with an approved “oversight organisation” such as the Australian Warbirds Association, which Chester said would act as the “administrator and oversight body conducting compliance on aircraft under this category”.
