Hi all - I got a further update from the Air Ops Team here about the opinion that Adina referred to.
The transposition of the EDTO standards of ICAO annex 6 part I is being processed within the scope of the rulemaking task RMT.0392. An NPA was published in May 2023 and went under a 3 months public consultation. The Agency is currently preparing the Opinion containing the related proposed amendments to Regulation (EU) 965/2012 to the Commission for their adoption.
Among the foreseen amendments, the aeroplanes with more than 2 engines are indeed expected to be included in the scope of EDTO in accordance with the ICAO related SARPs. A transition period is foreseen once the regulation is adopted in order to allow operators and competent authorities to adapt their procedures/training programmes to the planned changes.
The Opinion is expected to be published in Q4 2025.
