Re: Pod Rules On Aircraft
Its not something that happens on a regular basis carrying a spare engine onboard a 747 [One of only a handful of aircraft that can do it] but its perfectly safe and has been carried out for years.
Not sure about the rules that are set aside by CASA, but A01192 gives out a reasonably good explanation on what the pilots have to do to compensate for the extra engine under the June / July / August sightings.

I've closed the door!
Re: Pod Rules On Aircraft
I had a quick flick through the CARs, couldn't see anything for/against. Might have another look later.

Re: Pod Rules On Aircraft
I'd dare say there is nothing against it, seeing as it can be done

A lot would be outlined by the manufacturer in the certification process.

Re: Pod Rules On Aircraft
Only the RR and PW engines can be 5th Podded. Only the Tristar and the B747 can carry a 5th pod engine, and it was Boeing who designated that and not CASA, and then the operator simply puts it into their ops manuals. As for what the flight is, I think off memory you need 5degrees of rudder, which is programed into the FMC by the engineers.
