General Aviation

Hi everyone - we recently posted this article about Medicanes in the Air Ops Community. These are extra-tropical and tropical–like cyclones (Medicanes) in the Mediterranean. If you are flying in this region check out the article at the link here below.

Today the European Aviation Environmental Report (EAER) has been published. It sets out the future environmental and sustainability goals for the future of aviation in Europe. More information at the link below.

Hello all,
Can someone tell me where I can find the prerequisites to create/apply for an external examination center to allow austrocontrol exams?
Thank you

first : this is my first post here..please be patient with me and possibly drive me for the future. Let us go to my question: I need advice on maintenance altimeter check for a German registered aircraft under 2 tons private and certified IFR.
somebody told me that it must be done every two years ,other sources report that it is not needed being private and below 2 tons

Hello,
recently got diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes, and came to sad conclusion that across almost all of the Europe i can't fly no more, even privately.

Could someone explain how is it possible in 2022? We currently have widely available CGMs and Insulin pumps. We are not existing in stone age anymore. I can say with most certainty that at my 23 years old, i am more healthy than 70% of pilots, but due to outdated regulation i can't fly, which is a HUGE disappointment.

The EASA Annual Safety Review (ASR) was just published on the EASA Website. We made a quick summary video of the General Aviation part to let you know all the most important headlines.
Apologies, we said 60 seconds but it's more like 3 minutes.

Hello all,
Can someone tell me where in the EASA regulations states that a pilot with a CPL license with FI rating can give instruction up to PPL level only with a medical license class 2?
Assuming that the class 1 is either expired or has limitations.
Not sure if this is possible, however I believe the CPL includes PPL priviliges.
Thank you.

Hello everyone.
I am a pilot student in some trouble.

Fellow student as well as myself are in a tough situation.
Our School may go bankrupt and we are scared for our licences.
We are integrated student, we all have The theory ATPL and we are wondering if we could loose it in case of a school closure.

If any body can answers me or refer me to a person that could it will be much appreciated.
thank you.
