In New Zealand the regulator of the aviation industry is the New Zealand Civil Aviation Authority (NZCAA) that is enacted by the Civil Aviation Act 1990. The Civil Aviation Amendment Act 1992 provides the rules and regulations that the NZCAA applies to all aviation activities in New Zealand. Under the Act, Airwork has applied for and been granted a number of certifications.
These certificates are audited by the NZCAA on an annual basis and a re-entry audit is conducted every five years for each certificate.
