GM1 DTO.GEN.110 Scope - ED Decision 2018/009/R

Point DTO.GEN.110 lists all the training activities that are regulated by Part-FCL and which can be conducted at a DTO. However, for some of the training activities mentioned, Part-FCL (points FCL.130.S, FCL.130.B, FCL.225.B(b), FCL.810(c)) does not require the involvement of a training organisation at all. In this regard, point DTO.GEN.110 does not constitute an obligation for these training activities to be undertaken at a DTO only.
