TAWS for Part 91

[#1 FLAMED OUT]

Just hope everyone knows that part 91 operators out there flying International with 10 or more seats needs a Class A TAWS

Just hope that part 91 operators operating an N registered turbine aircraft with 6 or more seats know that they will need to have a class B TAWS after 29 March 2005.

the rule is domestic TAWS A & B are a requirement as applicable in March.

TAWS A is not applicable to PART 91 operators, TAWS A is applicable only to PART 135 operators.

Your post is incorrect Class A TAWS does apply to Part 91 Operators with 10 or more seats flying Internationally.

Six or more seats...you mean six or more passengers seats, right?

I dont have my regs in front of me, but I believe (from memory, be gentle with comments if I am wrong) that the rule in 91 is based on passenger seating 6 or 10 or more as to whether TAWS A or B is required. I can not remerber if it is configuration or certification of passenger seats.

"the rule is domestic TAWS A & B are a requirement as applicable in March."

In the spirit of the above highly informative post, I make the following bold statement and wait to be corrected;

All rules are effective as applicable.

 

[Otter]

So are you suggesting TAWS is not applicable per your first post? I ask as I thought it was, also waiting to be corrected.

 

[bocefus]

The only TAWS effectivity for part 91 operators in March is TAWS B.
The effective date for part 91 operators to have TAWS for operating internationally was 1 Jan. All better now?

Ref Aviation International News - JAR-OPS 1.82 and ICAO Annex 6 & 10: As of 1/1/05 TAWS required in Europe - European Reg aircraft > 12,500 lbs or >9 seats in commercial ops require Class A TAWS.

Domestic - US - US reg. Turbine powered aircraft with 6 or more seats require Class B TAWS by 3/29/05. - 91.223. 135.154 is similar except seats 6-9 are Class B, > 10 seats Class A.

I don't have the ICAO references to verify the above quote.
