. All cases of proposed single pilot operation should be referred to the OGP Member’s Aviation Advisor
6.4.1 Two pilot operations
Two pilot operations are usually required when operating in support of the OGP Member, and will always be required for:
.
IFR or night operations.
.
When mandated by the regulatory authority.
6.4.2 Single pilot operations
Where aircraft are certified for single pilot operations and in the view of the OGP Member’s Aviation Advisor are practically operable by a single pilot under the local operating conditions, then this mode of operation may be considered. Among the factors affecting the decision are:
.
Workload.
.
Flight Conditions.
.
Whether flights are conducted by day or night (single pilot not recommended for night opera-tions).
.
Whether flights are conducted under Instrument Flight Rules (single pilot operations not rec-ommended).
.
Traffic density.
.
Length and nature of intended flights.
.
Whether flights involve departure or arrival at major Control Zones.
.
Whether traffic flow is managed and STARS/SIDS apply
6.5 Flying hour limits – recommended maximum
Flying hour limitations for pilots are usually specified by the local Regulatory Authority. However, the limitations imposed are often set at a level greater than that at which fatigue may set in. To ensure that pilots are not overly exposed to fatigue while in support of an OGP Member’s opera-tions, the flight and duty time limitations specified in Section 5 Helicopter Operations (paragraph 5.6) of this Guide are also applicable to aeroplane operations.
6.6 Aircrew life jackets & aircraft homing devices
See Section 5 Helicopter Operations (paragraph 5.7) for operations over water where life jackets are required to be worn by the aircrew.
6.7 Sideways facing seats
Wherever possible, when chartering fixed-wing aircraft, those without sideways facing seats are to be preferred. If this is not practical and the seats cannot be repositioned in either the forward or aft position, use of these seats should be avoided during take-off and landing, unless shoulder restraint is used and tightened properly, and passengers briefed accordingly.

6.8 Specialist roles
6.8.1 Airborne geophysical survey requirements
Geophysical survey flying is one of the more demanding flight regimes in which OGP contracted aircraft operate. This is applicable to both fixed and rotary wing aircraft. To reflect the increase in difficulty of this type of flying, the requirements at Appendix 10 demand greater role experience and more stringent operational controls than those outlined in the standard conditions for fixed-wing aircraft and helicopters.
6.8.2 Aerial pipeline inspection
Both helicopters and fixed-wing aircraft are employed in pipeline inspection work. They need to operate at altitudes lower than optimum for normal operations and are subject to greater hazards. Standards for the conduct of such inspection work are at Appendix 11.
