ECSCG is by the way having a survey on standards, which one should we start to work on, and which part of the C-RDP could be improved. Please, provide your opinion, the more we get from the community the better we can understand the needs.

Any chance that 75 year old ATPL pilot fly as a crew member King Air 200 (5700 kg) in air ambulance ops ?

Hi all
Perhaps someone can assist on this.
Does AMC3 ORO.MLR.100 mandate the operations manuals to explicitly follow this table of contents?
My understanding of the AMC requirement is for the items to be included in the OM but the actual manual structure (aside from OM-A, -B, etc) can be as per the operator requirements.
Appreciate additional clarity.

Hi Kieran, Hi all
It is just a good tool for harmonisation and standardisation . Truly , we must step back a little and think of it from an outside perspective. It is quite cool to be able to refer to the same paragraph number for a particular rule or procedure. From Finland to Greece , From France to Malta , or from the small guy with just one Robinson 44 to the big mega airline with one hundred 100 tonners , paragraph A 8.3.3 Altimeter setting (for example) will always describe the same matter. It is better for everyone. including a pilot transitionning from one operator to another.
These are good reasons to follow the structure of the AMC . Use all the numbers and titles. Just write "reserved" or "not applicable" when you are not impacted. (You may become one day)
If your are starting your manual from scratch make it easy on yourself and just follow the organisation of the AMC. If, like many of us around, you ve kind of inherited an old manual in 2014; then do the best to stick to the suggested order. And whenever you have time , try to re arrange the maze...
Hoping it helped . Cheers

Hi Larry,
in practice I would argue that meeting the regulatory intent of Articles 139 and 140 of 2018/1139 should be prioritized over legally reflecting the (inadvertent?) delayed adoption of Article 140 (2) by the regulator beyond the deadline it set itself.
Maybe a way to address this and prevent confusion is to clearly state "in accordance with Reg (EC) 216/2008 until adaption of Reg (EC) 2018/1139" or something to that effect? Article 139 (4) also states "References to the repealed Regulations referred to in paragraphs 1 (Regulation (EC) No 216/2008), 2 (Regulation (EC) No 552/2004) and 3 (Regulation (EEC) No 3922/91) shall be construed as references to this Regulation and, where appropriate, read in accordance with the correlation table in Annex X.", so references to the old regulation I guess technically would remain valid indefinitely, until this article gets repealed by a future regulation.

EASA monitoring situation regarding possible eruption of Icelandic volcano Fagradalsfjall, Nov.14 2023
https://www.easa.europa.eu/en/newsroom-and-events/news/easa-monitoring-…
EASA is monitoring the situation in Iceland regarding potential eruption of the Fagradalsfjall volcano. In the event of an eruption and development of an ash cloud, the Agency will work with other aviation actors to assess the impact for aviation and make recommendations accordingly.
The EASA webpage Volcanic Ash (https://www.easa.europa.eu/en/domains/safety-management/volcanic-ash) gives information on the 2010 eruption and actions subsequently taken. EASA will be updating this page as appropriate in the context of the current situation. Please see also SIB 2010-17R7 (https://ad.easa.europa.eu/ad/2010-17R7), last updated in 2015, containing relevant general information on this topic.

Hello,
do you mind to put some detail leads on this =>
"Aircraft certification: EASA presented the AMC-GM to Part-21 and invited the interested industry to engage EASA on pilot projects with aim to explore jointly this novel and a long-awaited opportunity of aircraft design approvals"

Hello everyone,
I have a research related to the technical documentation. In fact, I found that there are no problems to fill the requierments in terms of Tech Pubs from institutions side. On the other hand, what about the suppliers of these documents? Do the texts provide any answers when, for example, the company which created a CMM was bought by another one ? or is there a text on orphan documentation ?

I have an enquiry about Pilot Retirement as we do have a short of Captains. My question here under EASA rules can we extend the age of retirement from 65 to 67 or more if their health allows that.
Your reply would be appreciated.

What about single engine piston operation. I work for a Seaplane company in Norway doing seightseeing flights. Experienced seaplane pilots are not easy to find. We have several 60 year olds that now only can fly privately. And they do for many years with no problem whatsoever. Seaplane operations are a bit physical in nature. Just to prepare the flight and dock/undock require vigelence. Hence, when people are not fit for this they will naturally stop flying seaplanes. I hope therefor the current rules can be eased. It does not make much sense from our point of view.
Thank you.

On November 8, 2023, EASA hosted the second workshop on the research project “Interoperability of ¡Conspicuity systems for General Aviation”, which was organised by the contractor consortium HORVÁTH and PARTNER with support of DRONIQ and the GA Flightpath 2030+. The project is funded from the European Union’s Horizon Europe research and innovation programme and is now in its mid-journey. The main objective is to ensure the full interoperability of the electronic conspicuity systems in the framework of research task RES.0031 in the European Plan for Aviation Safety (EPAS), with the aim to reduce mid-air collisions of uncontrolled manned aircraft (primarily GA and Rotorcraft).
This event was arranged to create a common dynamic with the experts from the industry about the possible solutions, so that all airspace users can be visible to each other, and to identify the difficulties and constraints to integrate different technologies. The participants included vendors and solution providers for traffic awareness and collision avoidance technology, as well as pilot associations, universities, and research centres and representatives from mobile telecoms companies. The main outcome of the workshop was the agreement on concept of multilink ground-based and airborne devices connected in network and communication in common ADS-L language.
The ¡Conspicuity concept should be understood as an ‘in-flight capability’ to transmit position and/or to receive, process and display information (on other aircraft, airspace, weather, support to navigation …) in real time with the objective of enhancing pilots’ situational awareness.
Or in short:
A connected aircraft … for better situational awareness.
