2-REG does issue Air Operator Certificates (AOC)
The certification process for a Guernsey AOC follows the ICAO five-phase process.
A Guernsey AOC operator must have its Principal Place of Business (PPB) in Guernsey. The requirements for the PPB are stated in GAC OPS-11.
As a minimum, the organisation must stablish a Guernsey registered entity and office, from which the accountable manager directs and coordinates operational and financial control.
Further requirements are laid down in Guernsey Aviation Requirements (GAR) Parts 119 and 121 and Guernsey Advisory Circular GEN-4 and OPS-2. All GARs and GACs are published here:https://cidca.aero/article/166743/Guernsey-Aircraft-Registry .
Typically, the whole process takes at least 6 months, but it has shown to take more for those applicants that have no prior AOC experience.
The applicant will be invited for a pre-application meeting to discuss the process, all aspects of the proposed operation and expectations on either side.
The AOC fees can be found in our Fee Schedule in Section 8.
