Dear all,
As part of my apprenticeship I have to work on the differences in the process of Design organization approval between Europe (EASA), USA (FAA) and Canada (TCCA). I have done some research regarding the FAA process and I have understood that compared to EASA process, in FAA you can be considered as Consultant DER (DER-T) or company DER (DER-Y). Unless I am mistaken, in Europe, you cannot be a consultant CVE ( equivalent of a DER-T) because you have to be sponsored by a design organisation approval(DOA). So today, I would like to understand what could bring an aircraft/rotorcraft operator to contract an ODA instead of DER-T for the certification of a modification ? is there no competition between an ODA and a DER consultant? I imagine that contracting a company (ODA) involves a lot more costs than a DER consultant (DER-T).
Also, in TCCA world is there some DER and DAR ,
My knowledge regarding the FAA and TCCA world is not really sharp and I would like to know more about it thank to you guys and you experience.
I wish all a great day
