After the completion of BIS-44 ‘Safe Operations in a PBN Environment’, EASA has confirmed, with the support of several stakeholders, the impact of the restrictions to fly conventional navigation, as well and the need to further support the implementation of contingency measures.
Following the BIS recommendation, the objectives of this rulemaking task are to amend Regulation (EU) 2018/1048:
- to address the negative effects resulting from the restrictions to fly conventional navigation, particularly, ILS CAT I procedures; and
- to further support the implementation of contingency measures.
Moreover, to ensure regulatory consistency with Regulation (EU) No 965/2012 and its Acceptable Means of Compliance (AMC) and Guidance Material (GM), this rulemaking task will address the conflicts detected in the BIS-44 report, including those related to the selection of destination alternate aerodromes.
Additionally, it will support harmonised procedures for service providers and aircraft operators to mitigate GNSS degradations, which may require amendments to the regulations and ED Decisions listed below.
