2. TNS Service. The purchase price of all de Havilland aircraft TNS will include the provision of the first year’s subscription service only. Thereafter, TNS amendments will only continue to be received if the annual subscription fee is paid. However, for those who subscribe to the TNS service, de Havilland Support Ltd intends to publish a quarterly newsletter (or as urgency demands) to provide a regular means of communication with de Havilland aircraft owners, operators and maintenance organisations. The newsletters will be a tangible means of communication for more informal technical or operational matters which do not justify the issue of a TNS. 3. Other Technical Publications. Over the years a wide range of technical publications have been issued in support of de Havilland aircraft, including Maintenance and Repair Manuals, Schedules of Spare Parts, Maintenance Schedules, Crew Manuals and Pilot’s Notes. Details of those publications currently available can be obtained from de Havilland Support Ltd at the address below. Unfortunately, in most cases the technical content of these documents has been ‘frozen’ and the only means of amending the data has been by the promulgation of a TNS. Whilst there is no active amendment service for these publications, it is essential that holders register their interest so that they might be advised whenever an amendment or revision is published. Accordingly, there is no charge for registration as a publication holder. In the event that a publication is amended or re-issued, de Havilland Support Ltd will contact all registered holders and advise details of the amendment and its cost. 4. Supply of Manufacturing Drawings. The Company can provide copies of manufacturing drawings to assist in the maintenance or restoration of existing aircraft. Such drawings are provided on the basis of acceptance of de Havilland Support Ltd’s normal trading terms (available on request). 5. Repair Schemes. The de Havilland Support Ltd archive contains an array of repair drawings and schemes which are presently being catalogued. Thus, if an aircraft has damage in excess of published repair schemes, a solution may already be available. Alternatively, the Company can originate new repair schemes or classify the extent of damage under the terms of its CAA design approval. In future, it is hoped to display an Index of Repair Schemes on the Company’s website. 6. Modifications. The de Havilland Support Ltd Design Approval (UK CAA Groups E1 and E2) also allows the Company to originate modifications or to vet and support other proposals submitted from external sources. Such activity might range from the approval of an alternative material specification to the design of a completely new aircraft system. Due to the variability of the work required in modification design, each task would be the subject of an individual quotation. 7. Continued Airworthiness. To keep the large fleet of de Havilland aircraft airworthy and able to fly on into the future requires the Type Design Organisation, aircraft owners and operators and aircraft maintenance organisations to work together to solve any new technical problems as they arise. Such solutions must sustain the airworthiness of the worldwide fleet but in a realistic and cost-effective manner. As the Type Design Organisation, de Havilland Support Ltd will do all it can to achieve this aim. The Company’s ability to do so, however, relies heavily on liaison and co-operation with aircraft owners, who must advise when they experience a problem for the first time or contact the Company if they have any questions about support of their aircraft. A vital means of communication will be the regular newsletter and the associated TNS service. 8. Support of Modified Aircraft. Over the years Dove aircraft have been extensively modified other than by BAE SYSTEMS Ltd or its predecessor companies. Whilst it is de Havilland Support Ltd’s intention to provide support for the continued airworthiness of standard aircraft, wherever possible the Company will also endeavour to provide support for the standard elements of modified aircraft. However, de Havilland Support Ltd reserves its discretion to refuse support in appropriate cases. 9. Data Protection Act. de Havilland Support Ltd is registered under the UK Data Protection Act and undertakes not to disclose details of publication subscribers to any other party. 10. Recording Action. This TNS CT(104) No. 2, Issue 1 supersedes and cancels TNS CT(104) No. 206, Issue 2 dated 9th October 1978, and CT(104) No. 235, Issue 1 dated 8th April 1974, which should be removed from the folder and destroyed. Whenever a new TNS is published or an existing TNS is amended, operators should hand-amend their copy of TNS CT(104) No. 1 – "List of Technical News Sheets" to ensure that an up-to-date index is maintained. The Index will be re-issued periodically. 11. Contact Details. The Type Design Organisation can be contacted as follows: |
