European Technical Standard Order (ETSO) Workshop 2026

The ETSO workshop has become a popular and regular forum for the worldwide community of ETSO manufacturers, installers, and operators. Topics of common interest in the various fields of aviation equipment are presented and discussed, aiming at updating participants and getting their feedback on industry and authority initiatives concerning operational, design, manufacturing, and regulatory matters with the common scope of fostering safety. 

Besides EASA, also ANAC, CAA UK, FAA and TCCA representatives actively participate to the event, providing updates on their related activities and on cooperation/bilateral issues. Other CAA representatives may be present as well.

Confirming arrangement of previous ETSO workshops, the event will consist of a general part on day 1, covering topics of interest for all participants, like updates from Rulemaking, lessons learned, bilateral partners’ updates; and with technical sessions on day 2, with more detailed discussions in the domain of electrical and avionics articles as well as (hydro-)mechanical ones. Copies of all presentations held, as well as additional background material, will be made available on EASA website for download after the workshop. 

While the event is primarily on-site, a concurrent 2-hours slot online connection between the ETSO Workshop and the SAE Seat Committee meeting is foreseen to take place on 23rd of September. 

EASA plans to provide remote online connection (with limited interaction possible) if the limit of in-person participants that EASA can host is reached.
