Hello.. I am looking for SPO operators of complex-motorpowered-aircraft with a MTOW below 5700kg who are using the Deorgation Art 6(8) for non-commercial operation (like ferryflights/positioning) to fly under NCO instead of NCC.
Thank you for your help!

Hello

We are an NCC operator approved for cat III OPS.
According to AMC2 SPA.LVO.100(b) table 5, we will soon be allowed to conduct cat III approches with a minimum RVR of 175 m.
According NCC.OP.147 a visibility of at least 800 m above the instrument approach operation RVR or 1500 m whichever is higher is required in order to specify an aerodrome as a destination alternate.
The application of such a margin seems excessive. Will EASA consider NCC LVO operators by lowering the visibility requirement for a destination alternate?

Thanks

NASA ASRS CALLBACK Issue 510 The Inflight Medical Emergency
https://myemail.constantcontact.com/CALLBACK-510--July-2022---The-Infli…

This month, CALLBACK looks at reported incidents that reveal the atypical nature of inflight medical emergencies and the corresponding changes in flight tenor but focus on the gravity and consequences of crew decisions and actions that were implemented.

Dear all,

In our company we are revisiting the "two-person-rule" implemented after the Germanwings accident, and according to SIB 2015-04 (later SIB 2016-09) and the EASA survey results following-up on that same issue.

Now the Regulation has implemented the Support Program, and mandatory psychological evaluations for flight crew - however, these are not mandatory for cabin crew, who is normally the person who enters the cabin when a pilot leaves.

With all this into consideration, I am curious to know what the industry thinks now about the "two-person-rule", and which companies have this implemented, or not.

Thanks in advance!
