type should not be less than 300 hrs, or if less than 300 but not less than 200 hours, the total time of the PIC
should be in excess of 2000 hrs for multi turbine operation and 1500 hrs for single turbine operations.

16. MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS WAIVER AND AUTHORITY

16.1 The minimum requirements as set out above may be reduced at the discretion of the Responsible

due consideration to the nature of the proposed operations, aircraft type, and the Pilot’s background
and experience on similar or other Aircraft types.

shall be placed on the pilots file stating the reasons for the decision including but not specifically
limited to new aircraft type or, prior experience on similar types.

16.3 Where the abovementioned post holders agree to waive the minimum requirements as set out above,
the PIC or Co-Pilot position shall be endorsed only after a check ride on the aircraft or a Simulator has
been completed to confirm the suitability of the candidate. The check ride shall be done by the
Chief Training Captain, a company approved instructor or an approved ATO.

16.4 The new intake of crew will have to comply with the minimum requirements laid down by the relevant
aircraft insurance policy in respect of total hours specified, hours on type of aircraft, etc.

NOTE: The insurance policies of the aircraft differ.

17. AIRCREW APPOINTMENT

17.1 New Crew

Prospective aircrew shall be required to undergo an assessment by the Chief Pilot, Safety Manager,
Division Manager and /or the Responsible Person Flight Operations prior to being approved for NAC
Operations. Where considered necessary by the above Post holders, such assessment may require
that the Aircrew undergo a flight test under the auspices of an NAC approved instructor and / or ATO.

17.2 New Crew

A psychometric evaluation shall be performed if or when required by a client prior to appointing new
Flight Crew and prior to the upgrading of any Flight Crew to PIC.

The psychometric evaluation shall be coordinated by the HR Manager. The required psychometric
evaluation shall be performed by a licensed psychologist.

The result of the psychometric evaluation and recommendations shall be reviewed by the HR Manager
and the Responsible Person Flight Operations and actioned accordingly.

17.3 Recurrent Aircrew Rating

Recurrent training of aircrew shall be arranged on a regular basis by the Chief Training Captain.
Whenever a pilot procedural inefficiency or incident has occurred the Chief Training Captain may call
for a proficiency check or refresher course for the affected pilot. Such recurrent training and flight
checks shall be undertaken by NAC approved Instructors and / or an approved ATO.

18. ROUTE PROFICIENCY

18.1 Standards established by ICAO will be regarded as the minimum for Flight Crew. However, such
requirements will be enhanced by requiring all flight deck crew to be conversant with and have an
adequate knowledge of the routes to be flown and airports to be used.

18.2 NAC shall use all practical methods to qualify the Captain concerned for the Area of Operations and
NAC will in principle undertake to brief all Flight Crew regarding route and airports to be utilised before
leaving base by making full use of all available information.

18.3 Where practicalities do not however permit for NAC to fully brief the Flight Crew on the intended
routes, airfields and operating environment, it shall be the responsibility of the individual flight crew
members to ensure that he is qualified to fly a particular route, or to a particular airport. He must be
thoroughly conversant with all aspects of the operation and be able to comply strictly with all
applicable regulations and local procedures for the route to be flown.

18.4 Captain’s Initial Route Training

After being certified as competent to operate as PIC, a new Captain will be required to undergo a
minimum of 2 flights under supervision of an experienced Captain or a line check pilot designated
by NAC.

18.5 Area Familiarization Method

In order to qualify to operate in a particular area, the following methods are available to NAC in order
to ensure that the appointed Flight Crew shall be required to operate in the proposed Area of
Operation in a safe and reliable manner:

18.5.1 Crew Briefing

Self briefing, using Jeppesen charts, plus a comprehensive review of the information
available at NAC’s Head Office will assist the appointed Flight Crew to gather sufficient
information in order to operate safely. The NOTAC system will also be used to inform crew
of short term changes at unlicensed aerodromes. Additionally, refer to Part 1.4, paragraph 4,
detailing the flight preparation and release procedure.

18.5.2 Experienced Co-Pilot

A flight in specific areas where the Captain is accompanied by an experienced Co-pilot


qualified on that route or into that airport.

19. FLIGHT DUTY PERIOD

19.1 The prime objective of the scheme of flight time limitations, as described in this OPS Manual, is to
ensure that flight crew members are adequately rested at the beginning of each flight duty period. The
Chief Pilot and Responsible Person Flight Operations will take account of interrelated planning
constraints on:

19.1.1 individual duty and rest periods;

19.1.2 the length of cycles of duty and the associated periods of time off; and

19.1.3 Cumulative duty hours within specific periods.

19.2 Duties must be scheduled within the limits of the operator's scheme. To allow for unforeseeable
delays the PIC may, within prescribed conditions, use his or her discretion to exceed the limits on the
day. Nevertheless, flight schedules must be realistic, and the planning of duties must be designed to
avoid as far as possible exceeding the flight duty limits.

19.3 Refer to the Part 1.8 of the Operations Manual – Flight and Duty Period Limitations and Rest
Requirements.
