This Order revokes and replaces the Air Navigation (Noise Certification) Order 1986. In addition to some minor and drafting amendments the following changes are made— The standards specified in Part V of Schedule 1 which applied to propeller driven aeroplanes with a maximum total weight authorised of 5,700 kg or less are applied to propeller driven aeroplanes with a maximum total weight authorised of 9,000 kg or less which conform to a prototype aeroplane or a derived version in respect of which an application for a certificate of airworthiness was made before 1st January 1988 (article 6(8)(a)). New standards specified in Part VI of Schedule 1 are introduced for propeller driven aeroplanes having a maximum total weight authorised of 9,000 kg or less which conform to a prototype or derived version of an aeroplane in respect of which an application for a certificate of airworthiness was made on or after 1st January 1988. Where an application for a certificate of airworthiness in respect of such an aeroplane is made before 1st January 1993 and the aeroplane is unable to meet the standards specified in Part VI of Schedule 1, the standards specified in Part V of Schedule 1 shall apply (article 6(8)(b)). The standards specified in Parts I, II and IV of Schedule 1 which applied to propeller driven aeroplanes with a maximum total weight authorised of more than 5,700 kg are applied to propeller driven aeroplanes with a maximum total weight authorised of more than 9,000 kg (articles 6(5), (6) and (7)). The standards specified in Part VIII of Schedule 1 which applied to microlight aeroplanes registered in the United Kingdom on or after 1st April 1986 are extended to every other microlight aeroplane (article 6(12)(b)) unless it was registered in the United Kingdom before 1st April 1986 when the standards of Part VII of Schedule 1 apply (article 6(12)(a)).
