FIS certification in Reg.1035/2011

FIS included in ATS – Certification required i.a.w. Reg.1035/2011Article 4

Reg.1035/2011 Article 5.4: AFIS providers operating regularly notmore than one working position may be certified withDEROGATIONS (a reduced certification scope under specifiedconditions) only on the following: safety management responsibility & external services and supplies

safety surveys

safety requirements for risk assessment and mitigation with regard tochanges

Article 8b(3) EASA BR: States may allow FIS providers TO DECLAREtheir capability and means of discharging the responsibilitiesassociated with the services provided


FIS certification in Opinion 2014-05

Article 7 implements the principle established in EASA BRArt.8b(3) about declaration

ATM/ANS.OR.A.015 introduces the requirements and theeligibility criteria and for the declaration, i.e.:

• FIS is provided by one working position; or

• The service is of temporary nature, as agreed with the CA

Provision ATM/ANS.OR.A.030 defines conditions for the continuedvalidity of the declaration

N.B. - For AFIS, when a State decides not to apply declarations, thepossibility for a limited certificate applies (seeATM/ANS.OR.A.010(b)(2))


ATS requirements - RMT.0464 (1)

To develop provisions for the implementation of ERs in BR Annex Vb2.(c) concerning the provision of ATS

Objectives:

• to establish common EU ATS requirements by transposing the relevant ICAO provisions,thus contributing to their harmonised implementation, as a basis for EU aviation law;

• to harmonise ATS provisions throughout EU, based on mandatory (IRs) and flexible(AMC and/or GM) requirements; and

• to establish proportionate and cost-efficient rules.

Activities

• Analysis and transposition of provisions in ICAO Annex 11, Docs 4444, 7030, 9426;

• Analysis of differences filed to Annex 11; identification of commonalities to beintroduced in the EU law;

• Where necessary, identification of gaps and development of new provisionscomplementing those transposed from ICAO;

• Establishing correlation between ICAO provisions and the corresponding EU provisions;

• Ensuring consistency with EU legislation (e.g. SERA).


ATS requirements - RMT.0464 (2)

RMG Terms of Reference and composition established inconsultation with EASA Advisory Bodies (ATM TAG and Sub- SSCC)

RMG composed by Members from ANSPs, CANSO, NationalAviation Authorities, Trade Unions, EUROCONTROL, EC

8 RMG meetings held so far – WORK IN PROGRESS

NPA publication due for Spring 2016 –

Any individual or organisation affected by the proposedmeasures may place comments to the NPA

Opinion publication due for Q4 2016


RMT.0464: Focus on FIS

Basis to establish common EU FIS requirements:

• ICAO ANNEX 11 - Chapter 4

• Doc 4444 – Chapter 9

• Doc 9426 – Part I, Section II

• DOC 7030 – EUR Chapter 6.13

• Filed differences to ICAO Annex 11 by States

• National practices

RMT.0464: Focus on AFIS (1)

ICAO: AFIS not established as a ‘standalone’ service - Provisions forFIS apply – But they are not specific to the aerodrome environment

Guidance on AFIS provided by ICAO Circular 211-AN/128 –EUROCONTROL AFIS Manual – Non binding material

Diverse implementation across EU States based on nationalregulation

EASA BR - Objective (Art. 2.2(d):

to assist Member States in fulfilling their obligations under theChicago Convention, by providing a basis for a commoninterpretation and uniform implementation of its provisions, andby ensuring that its provisions are duly taken into account in thisRegulation and in the rules drawn up for its implementation;

…but there is not a detailed set of ICAO SARPS on AFIS…


RMT.0464: Focus on AFIS (2)

AFIS = A subset of FIS, for which specific and more detailed EUrequirements should be established

Discussion within RMG.0464 is ongoing on the topics and the levelof detail, main drivers being harmonisation and proportionality

Initial identification of draft AFIS requirements based on theanalysis of Annex 11 provisions

Issues under discussion:• AFIS phraseology

• Language to be used

• Selection of the runway in use

• Criteria for the establishment of AFIS vs ATC

• Type of traffic allowed at AFIS aerodromes

• Airspace designation – need for and type of airspace

• AFISO training and qualification04/09/2015 change via "view" > "header and footer" 12
