radio permit for german registered glider
Hallo,
Anybody versed in german regulations? Is there an official requirement - "aircraft radio license", to have a radio in a german registered glider? Not a "operator permit" but some oficial permit to have a radio installed.... Thanks. Andy |

Oh yes, there is certainly such a permit.
If your radio is certified, than this permit simply is a matter of filling out a form, filing ist, pay the fee and then pay the annual fee. However, there is no requirement to actually have a radio installed, provided you are not going to fly in (German) controlled airspace. "Andy Smielkiewicz" wrote in message ink.net...

If however the radio is going to be used, then it must be certified and an annual fee must be paid. Of course, the operator must have a radio operator's license, too. Stefan |

Actually, you're wrong.
From a legal point of view, if it's installed it is supposed to be listed in the list of equipment ("Ausrüstungsverzeichnis") whether you turn it on or not. If it's in the list, it needs to be certified and it needs to have the permit. However, I know at least one ASW20 where the owner managed to not have it in the list :-)) "Stefan" wrote in message ...

You guys forgot to tell the most important thing: Which authority to
turn to. Have been in this situation recently myself and found out that such things are nowadays handled by the "Bundesnetzagentur": http://www.bundesnetzagentur.de Write a mail to a woman called Ute Booten (adress is ) and explain your situation. She will help you quickly and efficiently (which otherwise is not what german authorities are known for, but she's the exception that proves the rule). |

We could now continue to discuss whether a piece of silicon which is never to be turned on is part of the equipment or not. (Frankly, I don't know.) Of course, for all practical purposes, this question is irrelevant. Stefan |
