Introduction of proposed safety standard - community service flights

The proposal introduces minimum CSF pilot experience, licensing and medical requirements, requirement of flights at night to be conducted using instrument procedures instead of visual procedures and requires slightly enhanced aircraft maintenance requirements, in line with other operations within Australia involving similar participants.

Please provide feedback below. You may enter as little or as much information as you wish.
I agree with minimum experience requirements and flights at night to be conducted under IFR and pilots to be suitably qualified. I also consider a Class 2 medical should be required. I don’t consider maintenance standard should be the same as for charter, aircraft maintained to CASA Private category is adequate.
