Annex 2 gliders are certified and maintained in accordance with established BGA standards and procedures with no CAA involvement. The BGA airworthiness exposition details the associated processes. The BGA maintains an aviation risk insurance policy that insures the BGA including its inspectors in respect of activities and responsibilities in connection with the airworthiness of gliders, motor gliders and tugs which are recorded as being within the BGA airworthiness organisation. All EASA and BCAR related approvals and certificates are subject to CAA fees. All CAA fees are included in the BGA fees quoted below.

Transition from Non-EASA to EASA C of A Background The vast majority of gliders and aircraft operated by BGA clubs were able to transition to EASA C of A through a process agreed by the BGA and CAA. As previously noted on many occasions, this transition process had to end in 2009. With effect from 1 April 2014 the CAA reduced fee rate transition ends. EASA C of A transition takes place under a permanently revised CAA process and significantly higher CAA fees. The BGA fee includes these fees and access to and the support of the BGA airworthiness organisation.
