New EASA Form 1 for Production OrganisationsThis month I would like to remind you that EASA has issued a new amendment to Commission Regulation (EC) No 1702/2003 Annex (Part-21) which was published in the Official Journal of the European Union on 8.12.2009, Commission Regulation (EC) No 1194/2009, Ref. No. L321. Besides other issues, this amendment introduces a new lay-out of the Authorised Release Certificate, called EASA Form 1-21 Issue 2. This new issue and the completion of it differ in various aspects from the old EASA Form 1 Issue 1.
Hereinafter I want to show you the new lay-out and highlight the main differences between the Issue 1 and the Issue 2. New Lay-Out:
