(f) Overhaul and refurbishing technologies for "helicopter power transfer systems" embargoed by sub-item (c) above, or for specially designed components embargoed by sub-item (e) above, which embody any technology listed in Note 9, shall remain embargoed until those "helicopter power transfer systems" have been in civil use for more than eight years, as defined in Note 2.
(g) Overhaul and refurbishing technologies for "helicopter power transfer system" embargoed by sub-item (c) above, or for specially designed components embargoed by sub-item (e) above, which do not embody any technology listed in Note 9, shall remain embargoed until those "helicopter power transfer systems" have been in civil use for more than eight years as defined in Note 2.
N.B.
The provisions of (a) to (g) above apply provided that:
(a) Technology as described in this Note, including unpublished technical data (all data other than that generally available to the public), to be provided will be the minimum necessary in content and quality for the purposes of the transaction; and
(b) It is considered that the specially designed components to be assembled into "helicopter power transfer systems" produced by the recipient with technology supplied under this Note, and the "helicopter power transfer systems" thereby assembled will be for civil use as described in Note 10.
Not used.
This Item does not embargo for civil use gas turbine engines, APUs and "helicopter power transfer systems" and modifications (and technology therefor) certified or re-certified for civil use, as described in Note 2 prior to the 1st January 1979, and not embargoed by the following definitions:
Helicopters over 4 530 kg (10 000 lb) empty weight, and power transmissions systems therefor;
Note:
Empty weight is understood to include normal installation and normal minimum crew, but does not include fuel or pay-load.
Aero-engines, as follows:
(i) Piston engines;
(ii) Jet engines of less than 2 165 kg (5 000 lbs) thrust;
(iii) Turboprop or turboshaft engines of less than 2 500 horsepower or with a residual thrust of less than 453 kg (1 000 lbs).
Sub-item (d) above does not embargo for use in bona fide "civil aircraft" or "civil helicopters" those engines which it is considered contain none of the technologies listed. Gas turbine engines embodying any of these technologies shall remain under embargo until the technology has been in civil use for eight years, as defined in Note 2, after the initial certification date (shown in table 1). The following technologies shall remain under control for twelve years after the initial certification date of the engine in (shown in table 1), unless the expiration date of the embargo period is extended:
Sub-item (c) above does not embargo for use in bona fide "civil helicopters" those "helicopter power transfer systems" which it is considered contain none of the technologies listed below. "Helicopter power transfer system" embodying any of these technologies, and these technologies themselves, shall remain under control for eight years after the initial certification date (shown in table 2), unless the expiration date is extended:
10. The terms "civil aircraft" and "civil helicopters" are understood to include only those types of civil aircraft and helicopters which are listed by designation in published airworthiness certification lists by the civil aviation authorities to fly commercial civil internal and external routes or for legitimate civil, private or business use. The total number of aircraft or helicopters (and aero-engines or "helicopter power transfer systems") by type which may be included within the terms "civil aircraft" and "civil helicopters" shall not exceed that number which appears to constitute a reasonable requirement for operation of published scheduled services or for legitimate civil, private or business use.
11. Not used.
