|
Type
Certification
|
The
Aircraft has been type certificated under Joint Aviation Authorities (JAA)

7.2.3 The
Seller shall as far as practicable (but at its sole discretion and without
prejudice to Clause 7.3.1 (ii)) take into account the information available to
it concerning any proposed law, regulation or interpretation which could become
a Change in Law in order to minimise the costs of changes to the Specification
as a result of such proposed law, regulation or interpretation becoming
effective prior to the Aircraft being Ready for Delivery.

Costs of SCNs for
Certification
|
7.3.1
The costs
of implementing the variation or modification referred to in Clause 7.2.2
above shall be

EXCUSABLE
DELAY
|
10.1

civil war, warlike operations, terrorism, insurrections or riots, fires,

be entitled to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Clause if
the Excusable Delay results from a cause within its

|
10.3.2
|
If
the Seller concludes that the Delivery of any Aircraft shall be delayed
for more than *** after the last day of the Scheduled Delivery Month due
to an Excusable Delay and as a result thereof reschedules Delivery of such

promptly notify the Buyer in writing to this effect and shall include in
such notification the new Scheduled Delivery Month. Either party may
thereupon terminate this Agreement with respect to such Aircraft by giving
written notice to the other party within *** after receipt by the Buyer of
the notice of anticipated delay.

Total Loss, Destruction or
Damage

If
prior to Delivery, any Aircraft is lost, destroyed or in the reasonable

the Aircraft may be delivered to the Buyer and the Scheduled Delivery
Month shall be extended as specified in the Seller's notice to accommodate
the delivery of the replacement aircraft ; provided, however, that in the
event the specified extension of the Scheduled Delivery Month to a month
is exceeding *** after the last day of the original Scheduled Delivery
Month then this Agreement shall terminate with respect to said Aircraft

hereunder.

|
|
In
the event that this Agreement shall be terminated as provided for under

|
Interface
Problem
|
If the
Buyer experiences any technical problem in the operation of an Aircraft or its
systems due to a malfunction, the cause of which, after due and reasonable
investigation, is not readily identifiable by the Buyer, but which the Buyer
reasonably believes to be attributable to the design characteristics of one or
more components of the Aircraft ("Interface Problem"), the
Seller shall, if so requested by the Buyer, and without additional charge to the
Buyer except for transportation of the Seller's personnel to the Buyer's
facilities, promptly conduct or have conducted an investigation and analysis of
such problem to determine, if possible, the cause or causes of the problem and
to recommend such corrective action as may be feasible. The Buyer shall furnish
to the Seller all data and information in the Buyer's possession relevant to the
Interface Problem, and shall cooperate with the Seller in the conduct of the
Seller's investigations and such tests as may be required.
At the
conclusion of such investigation the Seller shall promptly advise the Buyer in
writing of the Seller's opinion as to the cause or causes of the Interface
Problem and the Seller's recommendations as to corrective
action.
12.4.2

Responsibility

Warranted Part to the extent of the Seller's obligation as defined in Clause

Joint
Responsibility
|
If the
Seller determines that the Interface Problem is attributable partially to the

Seller shall, seek a solution to the Interface Problem through
cooperative efforts of the Seller and any Supplier involved.
The
Seller shall promptly advise the Buyer of such corrective action as may be
proposed by the Seller and any such Supplier. Such proposal shall be consistent
with any then existing obligations of the Seller hereunder and of any such
Supplier to the Buyer. Such corrective action when accepted by the Buyer shall

atmosphere according to ISA, except as otherwise noted and the use of
speedbrakes, flaps, landing gear and engines in the conditions liable to
provide the best results shall be
assumed.
|
|
For
take-off performance no special procedures have been considered if not
otherwise specified.

For
the purpose of the take-off elements of the guarantee the centre of
gravity position providing the best results shall be
assumed.
|
4.3.
|
Climb,
cruise and descent performance associated with the Guarantees will include
allowances for normal electrical load and for normal engine air bleed and
power extraction associated with maximum cabin differential pressure as
defined in Section 21-30.31 of the Specification. Cabin air conditioning
management during performance demonstration as described in paragraph 5.3
may be such as to optimise the Aircraft performance while meeting the
minimum air conditioning requirements defined above. Unless otherwise
stated no air will be bled from the engines for
anti-icing.

will be demonstrated with reference to the JAA approved Flight
Manual.
|
5.3
|
Compliance
with those parts of the Guarantees defined in paragraph 2 above not
covered by the requirements of the certifying Airworthiness Authority
shall be demonstrated by calculation based on data obtained during flight
tests conducted on one (or more, at the Seller's discretion) A319-100
aircraft of the same aerodynamic configuration as the A319 Aircraft
purchased by the Buyer and incorporated in the In-Flight Performance
Program and data bases ("the IFP") appropriate to the A319
Aircraft.
|
5.4
|
Compliance
with the Manufacturer's Weight Empty guarantees defined in Paragraph 3
shall be demonstrated with reference to a Weight Compliance
Report.
|
5.5
|
Data
derived from tests will be adjusted as required using conventional methods
of correction, interpolation or extrapolation in accordance with
established aeronautical practices to show compliance with the
Guarantees.
|
5.6
|
Compliance
with the Guarantees is not contingent on engine performance defined in the
engine manufacturer's
specification.
