2 Community Specifications an EASA Perspective EASA Role CS s Community Specification (CS) Certification Specification (CS) 17/03/2011 2

3 EASA Role RULEMAKING IR & CS/AMC/GM: -Preparing Opinions - Adopting CS - Adopting AMCs - Adopting GM - Providing support STANDARDISATION: Inspections of national competent authorities SAFETY ADVISER in Single European Sky (SES) implementation International relations: - ICAO - Support to the Commission - Europe s role in technical assistance to 3 rd countries SAFETY ANALYSIS: Data gathering and analysis CERTIFICATION of: - Aircraft and Equipment - Foreign Organisations - Design Organisation (DOA) - Pan European & 3rd country Air Navigation Service Providers (ANSP) 17/03/2011 3

4 CS s Community Specifications (CS) contain technical and operational requirements are non binding provide a presumption of compliance with the applicable requirements Certification Specifications (CS) contain detailed technical standards are made binding through certification basis provide a presumption of compliance with the essential requirements and Implementing rule 17/03/2011 4

5 Community Specifications (CS) 17/03/ /03/2011 5

6 Regulatory framework Regulation (EC) No 552/2004 of the single European sky has adopted the principles of the New Legislative Framework as it: Defines essential requirements applicable to EATMN systems, constituents and associated procedures in Annex II of the interoperability Regulation. Foresees the development of voluntary technical specifications in the form of Community specifications. Produced as a result of a mandate from the Commission and published in the Official Journal of the European Union. 17/03/2011 6

7 Community Specification What Status do Community Specification have? Non Mandatory Means of Compliance If applied in full provide a presumption of compliance with high requirements. 17/03/2011 7

8 System Specification Prepared by an ESO What do the contain? Majority of cases: reference to other specification e.g ETSI EN para ACIS Event identification Where Airport CDM is implemented, the Airport CDM Information Sharing shall be implemented with regard to: Identification of events and their associated times and dates, formatting and quality of service in accordance with Requirements ED145-12, ED145-13, ED145-14, ED145-16, ED145-17, ED145-18, ED145-20, ED145-21, ED145-22, ED145-23, ED145-24, ED145-25, ED145-26, ED145-27, ED145-28, ED145-29, ED and ED within the Airport CDM Interface Specification [6], and shall be tested and validated by demonstration, inspection and analysis. No new technical requirement. Mapping to essential requirements 17/03/2011 8

9 Question Are Community Specification (for interoperability) suitable for all Aviation needs? Are they resulting in any added value? 17/03/2011 9

10 EASA Certification Specifications (CS) 17/03/

11 Certification Specifications Standard means to show that products comply with Essential Requirements. Detailed objective and prescriptive requirements per category of product. CS-25 Large aeroplanes CS-29 Large helicopters. CS-ETSO: all kinds of equipment Most CS: Book 1: the standard Book 2: Acceptable Means of Compliance 17/03/

12 Certification Specifications CS-25 Large Aeroplanes Book 1: 220 pages, Book 2: 520 pages CS Equipment, systems and Installations (b) The aeroplane systems and associated components, considered separately and in relation to other systems, must be designed so that - (1) Any catastrophic failure condition (i) is extremely improbable; and (ii) does not result from a single failure; and (2) Any hazardous failure condition is extremely remote; and (3) Any major failure condition is remote. 17/03/

13 Certification Specifications Are issued by the Agency Are regularly updated to incorporate new technologies and improved safety standards Non-binding in nature however made binding through certification basis (i.e. when notified to an applicant. (21A.17)) 17/03/

14 Summary Community Specification primarily refer to other specifications/standards Means of compliance Questioned if this bring added benefit Certification Specification Indentified as different from Community Specification Binding requirement (when notified) 17/03/
