6 days ago PublicEASA published Notice of Proposed Amendment on operations in the single European sky (SES) airspace - May 26, 2023, open for comments until Aug. 28.
https://www.easa.europa.eu/en/newsroom-and-events/news/easa-published-n…EASA has published a regulatory proposal to enable and support operations (including of Helicopters) in the single European sky (SES) airspace.
NPA 2023-04 addresses two different subject matters: the use of airborne collision avoidance system (ACAS) Xa and the harmonised use of performance-based navigation (PBN) specifications for oceanic operations.
The proposal enables the use of ACAS Xa in the SES airspace, as one of the SES ATM Research (SESAR) solutions adopted as ICAO standard.

2 months ago PublicHello everybody, I need to shed some light on another grey area in 965/2012. Does an operator NCC/SPO with SPA.HOFO approval still need to comply with SPA.HOFO requirements if he now operates a non-complex helo? Basically is SPA.HOFO applicable under NCO ops? Thanks in advance. Kelly

4 months ago PublicAny group member experience with helicopter RADALT and 5G networks? Just working on one new helipad. By surprise one hidden antenna white box identified under approach path today. The old site survey attributed that "box" like AC unit. It is bellow H level, but helicopters must fly over that on 30-40 m alt (90-120 ft). The H site suppose to receive LPV200 (GPS/EGNOS) approach.
