ED Decision 2020/014/R AMC & GM to Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1207/2011 (the surveillance performance and interoperability (SPI) Regulation)

The objective of Decision 2020/014/R is to ensure the harmonised implementation of Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1207/2011 (the surveillance performance and interoperability (SPI) Regulation) for airborne and ground-based surveillance systems in a safe, efficient, cost-effective and proportionate manner. The correct implementation of the SPI Regulation will enable a harmonised surveillance function and the rationalisation of the surveillance infrastructure within the Single European Sky (SES) airspace. This Decision issues the first issue (Issue 1) of the Acceptable Means of Compliance (AMC) and Guidance Material (GM) to the SPI Regulation. The AMC and GM provide for a common understanding of the SPI Regulation, thus enabling its harmonised implementation.

EPA NPRM on GHG Emission Standards for Airplanes

The intent of this NPRM on emission standards is to match the international airplane carbon dioxide (CO2) standards adopted by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) in 2017 and assure the worldwide acceptance of U.S. manufactured airplanes and airplane engines.  These proposed standards would apply to certain new commercial airplanes, including all large passenger jets.

Comments to OMB on the EPA’s proposed reporting requirements were submitted on Sept 21.
