The European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) has published the updated Easy Access Rules for Operational Suitability Data (OSD) Flight Crew Data (CS-FCD) (Issue 2).
The publication incorporates ED Decision 2021/012/R which:
- provides a regular update of CS-FCD;
- updates the description of the type rating evaluation process for setting up type rating requirements and training programmes;
- develops definitions for ‘checking’, ‘evaluation subjects’, ‘modification’, and ‘type of aircraft’ for the purpose of CS-FCD;
- harmonises CS-FCD with the update of Subpart FC ‘Flight Crew’ of Annex III (Part-ORO) to Regulation (EU) No 965/2012 (Air OPS); and
- clarifies the concept of training areas of special emphasis (TASE).
The Easy Access Rules for CS-FCD (Issue 2) are available for free download on the EASA website as pdf, online dynamic publication, as well as in an xml format with machine-readable content. As they have been generated through the eRules platform, they will be updated regularly to incorporate further changes and evolutions to their content.
