Paragraph 3 Type Certificates for types of hovercraft
Where an application is made for the issue or variation of a Type Certificate in respect of a type of hovercraft, there shall be paid, for any investigations required by the CAA in pursuance of Article 10 of the Order, a fee of an amount equal to the cost of making the investigations:
Provided that
the fee shall not exceed, for the first period of 12 months or part thereof required for carrying out the investigations £39,250 or 80.5p per kg. of the maximum weight of the hovercraft, whichever is the greater amount, and thereafter pro rata for every month or part thereof;
the cost of the investigations shall not include the cost of investigating any items for which the CAA requires separate type approval;
the cost of the investigations shall not include the cost of any inspection of a craft which also serves as evidence leading to the first issue of a Safety Certificate for that craft.
