AMC 1 AR.GEN.300 Continuing oversight OPS<br />

GENERAL<br />

1. The competent authority should assess the operator and monitor the continued<br />

competence to conduct safe operations in compliance with the applicable requirements. The<br />

competent authority should ensure that accountability for assessing operators is clearly<br />

whose personal authority operators are assessed.<br />

Not directly applicable to our topic of de-icing / anti-icing, however this AMC highlights a<br />

useful principle which should be transferable to other areas and situations. That is, the<br />
