(2) The Authority may, when granting an aircraft maintenance engineer licence
or at any time while such a licence is in force, enter an endorsement on the

(3) The Authority may, for the purpose of ensuring the safety of air
navigation, include in an aircraft maintenance engineer licence an endorsement
that the licence is granted subject to a condition set out in the endorsement
or in a specified Part or Section of Civil Aviation Orders.
(4) In this regulation, "qualified person" means a person who:

(b) satisfies the Authority that he or she possesses such knowledge as the
Authority requires of:

(iii) these Regulations and the Civil Aviation Orders;
(c) satisfies the Authority that he or she has had such practical
experience of the duties performed by a holder of the licence sought

(e) has passed such examinations as the Authority requires to be passed by
an applicant for the licence sought.
(5) Any requirement formulated by the Authority for the purposes of
subregulation (4) shall be not less than the corresponding minimum requirement
adopted in pursuance of the Convention.

a competent authority in, and in force in accordance with the law of,
a country other than Australia;
(b) has complied with the minimum conditions required under the Convention
and with such other requirements as the Authority specifies; and
