What is EASA?

High & uniform level of aviation safety to be ensured at all times –

EU/EASA aviation safety regulatory systemestablishing common safety rules

ensuring that products, services, persons and organisations comply with safety rules

establishing independent safety regulator: EASA

EASA system = shared roles between Member States, Commission, EASA & stakeholders

Aviation system behaves as a networkprogressive harmonisation of safety requirements

Safe: aircraft + operations+ air traffic + landing/take-off

EASA tasks in ATM

RULEMAKING – IR & AMC/CS/GM:- ANS provision (OR + services)- ATCO licensing- ATM/ANS systems & constituents- requirements on airspace users- safety oversight (competent authority)

CERTIFICATION of:- pan-European service providers- non-EU ANSP’s- non-EU ATCO training org.+ oversight of network management

SAFETY ANALYSIS:covering whole ATM/ANS

STANDARDISATION: inspections of national

WHEN Q3/Q4-2012

METHOD EASA NPA, rulemaking group (ToR; Sep 2009)

OBJECTIVES (main)

• EASA BR (Annex Vb) safety objectives• Promote mutual recognition & ATCO mobility• Provide necessary AMC & GM• Review training requirements (all phases)• Harmonisation of applicable requirements (e.g. assessment

of language proficiency)• Common criteria for instructors & assessors• Rating/endorsement system (developments/harmonisation)• Management system requirements (harmonise + ICAO

compliance, incl. SSP), incl. ATCO training organisations)• Use of synthetic training devices, etc.

WHEN Q4-2012/ Q1 -2013

METHOD EASA NPA (combined), rulemaking groups (2 ToRs; Sep 2009)

OBJECTIVES (main)

• Implement EASA BR (Annex Vb) safety objectives, e.g. to cover the BR scope

• Align common requirements and their oversight• Develop (+ ICAO compliance) of management system

requirements and SSP � align with ICAO Annex 19 work

• Facilitate total system approach, align/link with aerodrome requirements (operators and safety oversight)

• Competence scheme for ATSEPs• Human factors safety objectives• Provide necessary AMC & GM

• ‘Transition period’ 2010-2011 (ESIMS results)

• EASA visits from 2012 onwards

• EU-ICAO MoC; avoiding duplication of effort

� Oversight of 3rd country training organisations is being

performed in accordance with Regulation 805/2011

� On-going oversight of the Network Manager on behalf of EC

� The French NSA is closely cooperating with EASA to ensure smooth takeover of EGNOS oversight (November 2012)

� EASA has received application(s) for pan-European service provider and relevant certification activity has been launched

ATM regulatory roadmap – SES/EASA

ATM Regulatory Roadmap

Implement Art. 65a (? SES III)

in 2012 2013 … (?)

ATM Regulatory Roadmap:

� Managed by the Commission

� Includes EASA, SES & SESAR

� 4-year rolling plan, now for 2013 - 2017

� Sets regulatory priorities and timeframes

ATM regulatory roadmap – objectives

� Solid basis for a single aviation regulatory framework;

� high and uniform level of safety

� global interoperability and

� defragmentation by common EU rules implementing ICAO SARPs

� Technological advancement (through SESAR)

� ANC 2012 outcome ���� to support global interoperability ���� swift implementation in EU (+ harmonisation/FAA)

� Implement a proactive risk-based rulemaking system enabling a swift mitigation for identified unacceptable safety risks
