UK Civil Aviation Regulations

These are published by the CAA on our UK Regulations pages. EU Regulations and EASA Access Guides published by EASA no longer apply in the UK. Our website and publications are being reviewed to update all references. Any references to EU law and EASA Access guides should be disregarded and where applicable the equivalent UK versions referred to instead.

With effect from 28 September 2003, for the purposes of new certifications, BCAR Section R is applicable as a requirement only to those aircraft which are excluded from the coverage of Regulation (EC) No. 216/2008. For a definition of these aircraft, see CAP 747, Section 1, Part 2.

In addition, where the European Aviation Safety Agency has accepted an aircraft type on the basis of its UK Type Certificate, and that Type Certificate contains a reference to BCAR R, then for that aircraft type, BCAR R is still applicable as a requirement.

BCAR R may also be used as guidance material at the discretion of the reader. Under such circumstances, it is recommended that the reader consult a CAA Surveyor for advice as to the suitability of application to a specific aircraft or piece of equipment. Contact numbers for CAA Surveyor staff are given in CAP 562, Leaflet A-10.
