Background prEN4179 introduced the concept of a
National Aerospace NDT Board to provide support with the qualification and approval of NDT personnel.
At a meeting of interested parties in April 1996 to discuss prEN4179 and the need for a NAndtB, consensus opinion of the UK Aerospace Industry was against the establishment of such a Board.
This was also the view of SBAC NDT SIG.

JAR 145 and Protected Rights
JAR 145 amendment 3 brought in the requirement for NDT personnel to be qualified to EN4179 after 31 December 2003.
NDT Personnel qualified to a national standard recognised by the JAA Full member authority may continue to carry out and control such tests after December 2003. (JAR145.30(f)(1))

EASA Part 145 Part 145.A.30(f) states that NDT
personnel must be qualified to a European standard recognised by the Agency.
AMC145.A.30(f) declares that the European standard recognised by the Agency is EN4179:2000 and does not include EN473.

National Aerospace NDT Board
AMC145.A.30(f) 4 requires in addition to EN4179 that all examinations should be conducted by personnel or organisations under the control of a National Aerospace NDT Board. Where there is not a National Aerospace NDT Board, the NDT Board of another Member state should be used as defined by the competent authority.

National Aerospace NDT Board
Until a National Aerospace NDT Board is established, newly qualified NDT personnel will not be able to carry out tasks under Part 145. A National Aerospace NDT Board could, according to EN4179:2000 paragraph 4.5 recognise equivalences of qualification and approval, which could allow recognition of EN473 qualification within EN4179 schemes.

Implications
Newly qualified NDT personnel operating under part 145 cannot be approved.
Establishment of a UK NAndtB is a necessity.

Interim Measure Recognise current PCN Aerospace Certification as
satisfying EN4179 for part 145 organisations until revised PCN Aerospace scheme implemented.
The UK NAndtB will manage individual cases for personnel performing tasks under part 145, certified in accordance with EN4179, requiring approval after 28 November, until such time BINDT accreditation process is in place.
The UK NAndtB will establish processes and procedures to support this where necessary.
