Why
this CAAP was written The
Authority has issued
revised legislation
for ensuring
that the information required
for the safe operation
of the aircraft is provided in the aircraft to
the operating crew.
This CAAP
was written to
assist all involved
to understand
the new rules
governing the required
flight manuals,
placards or other documents.
Also, this
CAAP provides guidance
on the information
required and the sources
of that information. Status
of this CAAP This
is the second issue of this CAAP on the subject
of Aircraft Flight
Manuals (AFMs). This
CAAP, which has been
significantly extended, provides
interim guidance
pending the
implementation
of CASRs Parts
43 and 91.
This CAAP
will be cancelled when
ACs in the 43 and
91 series
are published. For
