(b) This Arrangement shall extend to complete aircraft of all types, and to aircraft components when imported into New Zealand as merchandise and not as a part of a complete aircraft. (c) For the purpose of classifying import procedure, aircraft and aircraft components are divided into three general classes of aircraft Units, as follows:- (1) Class I Units are defined as any complete aircraft or aircraft components having type approvals in themselves, or any major assemblies of aircraft structural parts exported not as a part of a complete aircraft. Items in this class include, among others, complete air- craft, aircraft engines, propellers, appliances, and such major assemblies of structural parts as wings, tail sur- faces, ailerons and fuselages. (2) Class II Units are defined as any assemblies or parts, other than those included in Class I, which directly influence the airworthiness of an aircraft or aircraft component, except small standard parts and materials. Items in this class include components not having type approvals in them- selves, such as any structural part or assembly of an air- craft, and any functioning or structural part of an engine or propeller, except small standard parts. (3) Class III Units are defined as small standard parts and ma- terials not having type approvals in themselves. Items in this class include, among others, sound-proofing materials, cowling, ventilation equipment, tires, bolts, nuts, rivets, cotter pins, and standard ball or roller bearings.

As used in this Arrangement, the term "Certificate of Airworthi- ness for Export" means a document issued by the competent aero- nautical authorities of the United States, certifying that, at the time of the issuance thereof, a specified aircraft Unit identified by specific markings or otherwise, has been found, after inspection by a quali- fied representative of such authorities, to comply with any special requirements specified by the New Zealand authorities as provided in Article III of this Arrangement; and (1) to conform to a type which the competent aeronautical au- thorities of the United States have found to be of proper design, material, specifications, construction and perform- ance for safe operation; or
