BAC 1-11: Airbus withdraws Type Certificate...

Post by Stratofreighter »

...making civil operations in the EU with a BAC 1-11 now impossible, apart from the wellknown noise restrictions... :cry:
http://www.easa.europa.eu/ws_prod/c/doc ... 2010-1.pdf" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
The consequences can be read down below this PDF-document, published on the 12th of February 2010:
For operators outside the EU, operators need to contact their own state of registry for a decision on the continuing validity of any certificates that they have issued.
So outside the EU civil operations are still possible in theory...
BAC 1-11s used for military and scientific purposes are probably (hopefully :!: ) not too much affected by this withdrawal.

Good (and shamefull) example of a larger company unwilling to continue the 'legacy' of BAC as this becomes to expensive ... :twisted:

... Luckely there are no more 1-11's flying in EU (Romania got rid of them some time ago over the last years and some of hem are flying in Mali for Timbuctu Aviation)
