    The document discusses the regulatory process for classifying and categorizing changes to aircraft type designs. It addresses determining if a change is major/minor, significant/not significant, and establishing the certification basis. An example change involves fully modifying a cabin, which would invalidate previous certification assumptions and be categorized as significant.

    What are the regulatory chapters and guidance material that describe each

    of those steps?
    Categorization of the significance of the change? → 21.A.101,
    Classification of the change ? → 21.A.91
    What is the purpose of Minor/minor classification and of categorization of
    the significance of a change ?
    The purpose of the classification Major / Minor of a change is: → To
    determine the approval process of the change and the approving
    authority,
    The purpose of the categorization of significance of a change
    (Substantial, Significant, Not Significant) is: → To determine the
    certification basis that will be applicable to certify the change
    Categorization of the significance of the change
    To define if the change has to be categorized as Significant, proceed to the
    evaluation described in chapter 3.6 of Guidance Material to appropriate
    EASA Part 21 requirement, and answer to the following questions
    Remember: as seen during class, those questions are used to define if a
    change - that is not Substantial - as to be categorized as Significant
    Is there a change to the general configuration? → Yes, the cabinitala is
    fully changed
    Is there a change to the principles of construction? → No, same as
    inital design will be a priori used,
    Have the assumptions used for initial certification been invalidated? →
    Yes, for example cabin fire protection or load paths in the fuselage
    What is the aircraft certification specification (airworthiness code) to be
    considered to determine the certification requirements for this change ?
    CS-25 because the aircraft to be modified is a large aeroplane
    Analyse the Guidance Material (GM) "Establishing the certification basis of
    changed aeronautical products" of the appropriate EASA Part 21 (Easy
    Rules) requirement and its appendix A that gives examples to help to
    define the significance.
    Based on this analysis, is there any reason to categorize the proposed
    conversion change as "Substantial"? No, because among the 5
    examples proposed in the appendix nothing is similar to the change of
    the exercise (conversion)
    Yes, and my decision is supported by example 3 in the appropriate
    table of examples of Guidance Material, Yes, I have anwered YES to at
    least one of the questions in the previous question

    Determination of the certification basis for the change


    Date of application for the certification of the change is assumed to be 02
    January 2020.
    Which airworthiness code will be referenced in the certification basis of the
    change? CS-25 Amendment 23, as the change is Significant and latest
    certification requirements applicable on the date of application have
    basically to be selected
    Only the initial designer of the aircraft (aircraft Type Certificate Holder) can
    design this conversion change. False. The change can be designed by
    another approved design organization as a Supplemental Type
    Certificate
