Members of the jury of the internal competition are appointed by order of the Minister for Civil Aviation.
Members of the jury are appointed for a maximum period of four years. In the event of a major impossibility to replace a member upon the expiry of his or her term, the Minister may make a decision to renew his or her appointment for an additional year.
The jury is presided over by an official from a classed body A or a contracting officer of the same level, respectively, assigned to the General Directorate of Civil Aviation or to the General Council of the Environment and Sustainable Development.
The decision appointing the jury shall designate as Vice-President the member(s) of the jury replacing the president in the event that the president is unable to perform his duties.
The jury also includes three or four members selected from the public servants or contract agents of either the General Directorate of Civil Aviation or the Meteorological France public establishment or another administration.
Qualified proofreaders and examiners may be deputy to the jury; they participate in the deliberations with an advisory voice.
The Minister for Civil Aviation shall determine the list of candidates authorized to compete.
The nature of the written and oral examinations, their duration and the coefficients applicable to them are as follows:

The optional living language oral test is for the choice of candidates on the following optional living languages: German, Spanish or Italian. The candidates make their choices known during the registration.
A rating of 0 to 20 is assigned to each test. Each rating is multiplied by the coefficient provided for in Article 4 above.
However, for the optional test, only points exceeding the rating of 10 of 20.
At the end of the written and oral examinations, the jury determines by order of merit the list of definitively admitted candidates as well as a supplementary list.

In the event of equality between several candidates, the priority is given to the one who has obtained the highest rating to the mandatory oral test 2.1.
The amended decision of February 18, 1972 setting out the rules and program of the internal competitive examination for engineering and the operation of civil aviation and the annex thereto are repealed.
The Director General of Civil Aviation is responsible for the execution of this Order, which will be published in the Official Journal of the French Republic.
