Moving transition aircraft on the Guernsey Aircraft Registry (2-REG) has long been common practise for leasing companies, who appreciate the high levels of safety and compliance demanded by the Guernsey authority, combined with the swift response times to applications for aircraft registration, Certificates of Airworthiness and operational approvals.  2-REG has been working with a number of the Ferry Operators, who work with the leasing companies, to review their procedures and ensure full compliance with Guernsey regulations.  This ensures that approved operators have a fully compliant Safety Management System and robust procedures for the types of operation included in their scope of activity, whether it be ferry flights, demonstration flights or maintenance check flights.   2-REG Ferry Operator POCs (Private Operator Certificates / Section 77 Approvals), have now been issued to thirteen Ferry Operators who have demonstrated the required high levels of safety and compliance.  In order to ensure that transitioning 2-REG aircraft are operated to these high standards, leasing companies are now required to use only the services of 2-REG approved Ferry Operators.  Contact details for these Ferry Operators can be found by following this link to ‘Service Providers’ on the 2-REG website.

The new licensing platform of Ofcom has now launched enabling self-service for new applicants and existing licensees to apply for and manage Wireless Telegraphy Act Aircraft licences, which are required to operate radio equipment on board an aircraft.

The service will enable new licence applications to be built, variations to existing licences, surrender of licences, payment of licences and management of contact details.

To access our new system you will need to be a registered user. Please visit here for more details or here for more information on aircraft licences.

Further to the news announcement of 14 September, it is now announced that the revised GARs have been published on 1 December 2022 on the Guernsey ODCA website.
