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

We would like to hear from you

The CAA is committed to improving how we deliver services, please help us by completing a short survey about your experiences today

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.
