1 About LSA Project Group paper • • Because the paper was sent to Board Members on 13/9 PM. No Board Mbr had the chance to read it before the meeting on 14/9. Reaction of the Board: -EAS supports the LSA concept; -wishes the paper be approved by EMF GM which can bring some minor amdt; -will again put this point at Agenda 22 Oct so comparison can be made between Hawk Recom to EASA and the EAS/EMF/LSA Proj Gp position. -chair (RS) concluded that EAS has always, promoted the LSA concept with similarities to the USA/LSA concept. -RS suggest EMF to have coordin meeting with EPFU and EFLEVA • HAWK/EASA Workshop : 19 Oct : Participation from LSA Proj Gp (and EMF) recommended. Official documents have been sent by LB to EMF Group on 28 Sept. Registrations before 11 October. • My recommendation : After today Hawk presentation, redraft eventually the LSA Project Gp paper with approval of EMFmeeting. 4

2 FCL -Draft IR + EASA Opinion • The EASA proposal for FCL I. R. and opinion, are now at the Commission (copy sent to all EAS members). - Any reactions from LSA Prj Gp on : LAPL, LAPL Instr and LAPL Exam? If any please let EAS Board know (in writing) the sentences you would like to have changed (political lobbying). • Next step: Examination by the Commission. If complying with BR 216/2008, goes to M S Experts (diff from aviation WG. This is a NON Transparent system in the EU). + according to Lisbon Treaty, to Parliament (has the right of control), before publication. 5

3 Mod to 2042 Part 66 for B 3, L 1, L 2 • On 13/9 Council approved the Commission proposal to extend the derogation by one year, up to 28 September 2011. For a/c not involved in Com Air Trpt, other than large a/c –The need to apply Annex III (Part 66). Certifying staff of maintenance organisation. • Why this derogation ? Commission felt that original draft was too demanding and asked EASA to review the proposed amendment for Part 66, L 1 an L 2. Time delay for this process is the reason of this opt out. • This information was sent to all EMF members on 19 Sept. 6

4 EASA medical Workshop • After the CRD medical (for Med Doct), there will be an EASA Workshop on 30 Sept-1 Oct. • EAS Board will request the help of 2 Tech Officer: Dr Maria ORSINGA from NL and Dr Mike MULLER from G. • Goal: defend a light ICAO class 2 for LAPL and G. P. (The main diff between LAPL & PPL) 7

5 EASA Workshop AR/OR and ATO • After CRD on NPA 2008 -22 there will be an EASA workshop on Administrative Requirements; Operational Requirements (for training) • EGU requested a “light” ATO – A final text should be available pretty soon… 8

6 Standardised European Rules of the Air (SERA) • Consultation of stakeholders by Eurocontrol : 813 responses – 95% from General and Sport & Aviation – majority from UK, in particular from Gliders (the most severely impacted). • 3 June Eurocontrol Workshop- Many objections. After Private discussions, Eurocontrol and Commission recognised and accepted that a problem existed. • 22 June delegation visited MEP (at their request and in particular British Jackie Foster) in order to get an update on SERA (she had received letters from her constituents) • 25 June last delay (according to the mandate received) for Eurocontrol to table the proposed IR to the Commission. 9

6 Standardised European Rules of the Air - Conclusions Due to time pressure (SERA is a prerequisite for implementing Functional Air Blocks to be estalished 4 Dec 2012), most of the GA requirements have not been included in SERA- to be considered in the maintenance phase (2013 onwards). • In the interim, the propose I. R. allows for “statu quo” in the Members States. Ref recital (9) and Art 7 “Transitional measures”. • For information the 9 FABs see next slide. 10
