Amendment problems

This section covers the contents of an "amendment package" for a Volume and "how to amend" your Volume.
The package contains the following:

Filing instructions

Telling you which pages to remove and which to Insert. (The following data is for example ONLY)

GEN 0.4-1
GEN 0.4-2

GEN 0.4-9

29 SEP 05

GEN 0.4-1
GEN 0.4-2

 

ENR 1.6-2

In some cases you will have to remove and not insert a new page or insert a new page where non previously existed.

Pages to be replaced

These are the replacement pages for those already in the Volume. These should match the filing instructions and are normally supplied in the correct order.
Some Volumes contain coloured pages. Amendments for these are at the end of the amendment package, not in the correct sequence.

Using the filing instructions as a guide - remove the existing pages from the Volume and replace with the new pages.

When you have finished - complete page GEN 0.2 which is a record of the amendments entered into the Volume.

If you are unsure if a page is current - the checklist of pages that exists in each volume ( Vol 2 & 3 are treated as one volume) can be used to check the dates to ensure the page is current. The checklist in Vol 1 also contains details of pages in the other volumes.

Note that Vol 2 & 3 and 4 contain some pages that also exist in Vol 1.
Vol 2 & 3 and Vol 4 also have pages that exist in each other but not in Vol 1.

This ensures that Vol 2 & 3 contains all the required information for IFR flights and Vol 4 contains all the information required for VFR flights.
