Have the really bad guys caused us to forget “internal innocent” cyber threats?
While we focus - importantly - on the malicious and intentionally targeted cyber threats, we should not forget those from internal and innocent sources.
Look back at the recent aviation cyber incidents in the public domain: FAA NOTAM system in early 2023, UK NATS reduced system availability in Mid 2023,
Norway, the October 2023 Optus shutdown in Australia and consider if more comprehensive testing of software changes before being promoted to operational platforms and regression testing might have averted, or at least minimised, the impacts of these events.

Morning all - interested to hear your views about aircraft private ownership with possible rental to local fliers and/or trusted hour builders. What is the stance of EASA in the GA world.

Probably there is currently a bug in circulating the updated TCDS for P2012 - I did receive it 17 (!) times since yesterday evening (starting at 1717Z)!?
Dear Klaus-Dieter,
Thanks for the feedback and we are aware that some subscribers have received multiple notifications of this publication. We stopped these notifications yesterday around 12:00 and found the cause of the issue. The developers are testing the fix in the testing environment and it will be released to the live website afterwards so this cannot happen again. We apologise for the inconvenience.

Dear aviation colleagues,
I would like to hear your thoughts on following topic regarding Low Visibility Operations.
According AMC3 SPA.LVO.100(b) Table 6 when performing CAT2 approach on a runway with 2 or more RVR assessment units one may be operative.
Imagine following scenario where the MID and ROLL OUT RVR assessment unit are U/S. You perform a landing distance computation and the calculated landing distance is within 2/3 of the landing distance available meaning you will not enter the third part of the runway.
Although the table states that only 1 RVR assessment unit can be U/S, you know that you don’t need the ROLL OUT RVR.
Is it allowed to perform the approach and so disregarding requirements in the Table 6, or will the airport not allow LVP’s when two RVR assessments units are U/S?
Thank you for your inputs/considerations.

Good morning Vasileios,
here in Germany, we have to state that small and medium-sized companies in particular have not yet really realized that they need to do something.
Many companies believe that their activities do not pose any information risks to aviation. To make matters worse, the national authorities have also shown little to no activity so far.
From my experience as a former accountable manager for a small operator (AOC, 145, ATO), I know that many of the requirements of PART-IS have already been implemented, but rather out of common sense and therefore not documented in a proper way.
We are trying to persuade these smaller companies to at least have a risk analysis carried out using a checklist. Even if there are hardly any or no risks for aviation, companies can identify and mitigate general information security risks, as these can, in the worst case, ruin the company, for example through scams.
We are also convinced that potential clients will in future increasingly insist on the introduction of an information security management system, since they usually provide internal information for the execution of the order and must therefore ensure that it is handled carefully.
