FLIGHT HOURS REPORTING

(a)The requirement in CAT.OP.MPA.315 may be achieved by making available either:

(1)the flight hours flown by each helicopter — identified by its serial number and registration mark — during the previous calendar year; or

(2)the total flight hours of each helicopter — identified by its serial number and registration mark — on the 31st of December of the previous calendar year.

(b)Where possible, the operator should have available, for each helicopter, the breakdown of hours for CAT operations. If the exact hours for the functional activity cannot be established, the estimated proportion will be sufficient.
