European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) Introduction to EASA and EDA European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) What is EASA? EASA responsibilities include: Expert advice to the EU for drafting new legislation Implementing and monitoring safety rules, including inspections in the Member States Type-certification of aircraft and components, as well as the approval of organisations involved in the design, manufacture and maintenance of aeronautical products Authorisation of third-country (non-EU) operators Safety analysis and research

Introduction to EASA and EDA EDA Overview European Defence Agency (EDA) formed 2004 Primary Role: To foster European defence cooperation Created Military Airworthiness Authorities (MAWA) 2008 Develop an EU military regulatory framework All EU member states take part in EDA except Denmark Non-EU participation Norway (non EU member) granted an opt-in to participate in EDA programmes

European Military Airworthiness Requirements (EMAR) Requirements vs Regulations Responsibility of each member state (such as Aust Defence) to implement the requirements into own national military airworthiness regulations Derived from EASA ~95% common Contemporary ICAO based Hazard / Outcomes based Positively promotes interoperability (mutual recognition) Designed for multi-nation adoption

EMAR Structure

Airworthiness Definition EMAR definition of airworthiness The ability of an aircraft, or other airborne equipment or system, to operate in flight and on ground without significant hazard to aircrew, ground-crew, passengers (where relevant) or to other third parties. Derived from UK MOD JSP 553 Military Airworthiness Requirements Consistent with EASA use of this term and ICAO definition of “Airworthy” The status of an aircraft, engine, propeller or part when it conforms to its approved design and is in a condition for safe operation

Initial vs Continuing Airworthiness EMAR Structure Initial vs Continuing Airworthiness Initial Airworthiness: Type Design Certification Production Design changes post initial type certification Continuing Airworthiness: All of the processes ensuring that the aircraft: complies with airworthiness requirements is in condition for safe operation Continued (design) airworthiness. All tasks to be carried-out to verify that the conditions under which a type-certificate or a supplemental type-certificate has been granted continue to be fulfilled at any time during its period of validity. Continuing airworthiness. All of the processes ensuring that, at any time in its operating life, the aircraft complies with the airworthiness requirements in force and is in a condition for safe operation.

EMAR – Section A and B Requirements EMAR Structure EMAR – Section A and B Requirements Section A Pertains to the regulated community Section B Pertains to the regulator (eg DGTA) Purpose is to facilitate easy interoperability (mutual recognition) between nations using EMAR and with civil aviation (EASA and FAA based) Regulatory audience both EMAR and TAREG have a different audience and therefore perspective EMAR: Written to ‘the Authority’ (eg. DGTA) for implementation TAREGs: Written by DGTA for the regulated Regulatory latitude EMAR have ‘built in’ flexibilities TAREGs have an ‘exemptions regulation’

EASA/EMAR- Acceptable Means of Compliance & Guidance Material EMAR Structure EASA/EMAR- Acceptable Means of Compliance & Guidance Material Regulations are binding AMC and GM considered “soft law” Acceptable Means of Compliance (AMC) non-exclusive means of demonstrating compliance with airworthiness codes or implementing rules Provided for each EMAR part (21, 145, M, 66, 147) Guidance Material (GM) assist in the understanding of the regulation, and certification standards

The ability of an aircraft, or other airborne equipment or system, to operate in flight and on ground without significant hazard to aircrew, ground-crew, passengers (where relevant) or to other third parties. Initial airworthiness Airworthiness Codes. Product airworthiness requirements, applicable to the design of a product, that are approved by a competent airworthiness authority for the use with standardised aircraft categories (e.g. EASA CS, FAA FAR, STANAG, Def-STAN, etc.). Authority. Unless otherwise defined in specific EMAR, Authority means a National Military Airworthiness Authority responsible for the airworthiness of military aircraft hereto and "the Authorities" means all the military Authorities responsible for airworthiness hereto. Airworthiness Directive (AD). A document issued or adopted by the authority which mandates actions to be performed on an aircraft to restore an acceptable level of safety, when evidence shows that the safety level of this aircraft may otherwise be compromised. (ref. EMAR 21) Certificate of Release to Service. This is a statement, signed by an appropriately authorised person, on behalf of an approved organisation, which asserts that maintenance has been properly carried-out. The CRS contains the basic details of the maintenance carried out, the date that it was completed and the identity (may include an authorisation stamp) of the person issuing the certificate. Certification. Recognition that a product, part or appliance, organisation or person complies with the applicable airworthiness requirements followed by the declaration of compliance. Continued (design) airworthiness. All tasks to be carried-out to verify that the conditions under which a type-certificate or a supplemental type-certificate has been granted continue to be fulfilled at any time during its period of validity. Continuing airworthiness. All of the processes ensuring that, at any time in its operating life, the aircraft complies with the airworthiness requirements in force and is in a condition for safe operation. Derogation. Built in exemptions. Exposition. Management plan. The document or documents that contain the material specifying the scope of work deemed to constitute approval and showing how the organisation complies with an EMAR. Fit for Flight. Condition of a type design being certified as compliant with applicable airworthiness requirements as well as of an aircraft having been serviced and inspected as meeting the certified design and prepared for the intended flight. Military Type Certificate (MTC). Recognition that a product complies with the applicable airworthiness requirements. Military Supplemental Type Certificate. A document issued or endorsed by the Authority which certifies a major change to the type design by an organisation other than original design organisation. Products, Parts and Appliances Product = aircraft, engine or propeller (each can be granted with a TC), Parts and appliances = lower level components for which an ETSO/TSO may exist. Repair. A 'repair' means the elimination of damage and/or restoration to an airworthy condition following initial release into service by the manufacturer of any product, part or appliance. Special Conditions. Are introduced when the design features of a particular product or the experience in operation render any of the airworthiness code provisions inadequate or inappropriate to ensure conformity with essential requirements. Type Certificate Holder. The organisation responsible for the relevant Type Design and applying for, and then holding, the Type Certificate and accepting the rights and obligations for the product. Type Certification Basis. An agreed set of airworthiness requirements a product must be compliant with in order to obtain a Type Certificate. For more details see EMAR 21. Type Design. The minimum set of approved design information necessary to define the product type; as detailed in 21A.31.
