  • It is imperative to examine the regulatory trends of leading overseas aviation authorities to accelerate the effort to integrate emerging new air vehicle concepts such as UAS and eVTOL into the existing national airspace system. Whilst EASA seems to react swiftly in relation to regulatory framework by proposing new sets of customised special conditions to cope with a growing demand to introduce new aircraft concepts, understanding of such movement lags behind mainly due to the complexity of EASA's regulation structure, not to mention EU's legal system. Witnessing this situation, this paper reviewed the legal system of the EU which forms the basis of EASA's regulation system together with its own recently published UAS regulations so as to contribute towards the improvement of the aviation regulatory framework.

  • In order to advance into the MRO industry, the Aviation maintenance organization with suitable for the standards for personnel, facilities and operations should be first approved by FAA and EASA. The purpose of study is designed to arrange the standards required for personnel, facility, operation rule for approval of Repair Station maintenance organizations certified by FAA PART 145 of the US Federal Aviation Regulation. Also to consider the following differences through the comparative analysis with domestic AMO certification of the information in the Management, Maintenance Process, and Quality System for approval of maintenance organization authorized, the additional EASA PART 145. As a comparative analysis on maintenance organization certification in the country between FAA and EASA, this study could show us that domestic maintenance organization, certified manual contents are used by applying just many of the FAA system. And we could know that as part of the EASA maintenance organization certification process, airmen personnel were relatively systematically segmented and controlled. For domestic maintenance organization certification, operational as policy implications we would like to present policy implications such as the implication of rating system of Aviation Mechanic License like EASA, the financial support of the training center to resolve the shortage of the FAA or EASA license holders, operational organization as "CAMO" for systematic aviation mechanic certified system should be required, continued construction of hangar or MRO for airworthiness repair under Governmental support, and varied application of DER system from FAA accordingly.

  • Some Contracting States of the Chicago Convention issue FAOC(Foreign Air Operator Certificate) and conduct various safety assessments for the safety of the foreign operators which operate to their state. These FAOC and safety audits on the foreign operators are being expanded to other parts of the world. While this trend is the strengthening measure of aviation safety resulting in the reduction of aircraft accident. FAOC also burdens the other contracting States to the Chicago Convention due to additional requirements and late permission. EASA(European Aviation Safety Agency) is a body governed by European Basic Regulation. EASA was set up in 2003 and conduct specific regulatory and executive tasks in the field of civil aviation safety and environmental protection. EASA's mission is to promote the highest common standards of safety and environmental protection in civil aviation. The task of the EASA has been expanded from airworthiness to air operations and currently includes the rulemaking and standardization of airworthiness, air crew, air operations, TCO, ATM/ANS safety oversight, aerodromes, etc. According to Implementing Rule, Commission Regulation(EU) No 452/2014, EASA has the mandate to issue safety authorizations to commercial air carriers from outside the EU as from 26 May 2014. Third country operators (TCO) flying to any of the 28 EU Member States and/or to 4 EFTA States (Iceland, Norway, Liechtenstein, Switzerland) must apply to EASA for a so called TCO authorization. EASA will only take over the safety-related part of foreign operator assessment. Operating permits will continue to be issued by the national authorities. A 30-month transition period ensures smooth implementation without interrupting international air operations of foreign air carriers to the EU/EASA. Operators who are currently flying to Europe can continue to do so, but must submit an application for a TCO authorization before 26 November 2014. After the transition period, which lasts until 26 November 2016, a valid TCO authorization will be a mandatory prerequisite, in the absence of which an operating permit cannot be issued by a Member State. The European TCO authorization regime does not differentiate between scheduled and non-scheduled commercial air transport operations in principle. All TCO with commercial air transport need to apply for a TCO authorization. Operators with a potential need of operating to the EU at some time in the near future are advised to apply for a TCO authorization in due course, even when the date of operations is unknown. For all the issue mentioned above, I have studied the function of EASA and EU Regulation including TCO Implementing Rule newly introduced, and suggested some proposals. I hope that this paper is 1) to help preparation of TCO authorization, 2) to help understanding about the international issue, 3) to help the improvement of korean aviation regulations and government organizations, 4) to help compliance with international standards and to contribute to the promotion of aviation safety, in addition.

  • Korean civil airworthiness requirements of powerplant system are regulated on KAS Part 23 and Part 33. These are equivalent to FAR Part 23, Part 33 of FAA and CS-23, CS-E of EASA. FAA and EASA rewrites entire airworthiness requirements for the small airplane. It changed current 'prescriptive regulation' into 'performance-based regulation' which makes the object of safety performance. Powerplant requirements are also changed extensively by these concept revolution. In accordance with reorganization, we studied new powerplant system requirements of FAR Part 23 and proposed ideal direction to rewrite of Korean Airworthiness Standard rewrite.

  • In Europe, it is necessary to fulfil the type certification criteria by the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) when developing an aircraft engine. According to type certification criteria, a 150 hours endurance test should be performed to verify the stability of the engine structure under the engine's operating limit conditions. The type certification criteria for the 150 hour endurance test are specified in JAR-E, which is the EASA type certification. Currently, the Arriel 2L2 engine is being developed in cooperation with a foreign manufacturer, and a 150 hours endurance test was performed. In this study, a 150 hours endurance test procedure is conducted in consideration of the operation characteristics of the currently developed engine.

  • The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) legislates the CS-E (Certification Specification-Engine) for type certification of aircraft engines. According to the CS-E, engine manufacturers (type certificate holders) the need to show compliance of continued airworthiness of an engine during the overhaul, and the Accelerated Mission Test (AMT) is usually accepted as means of compliance. As a part of the Korean Civil Helicopter program, the engine has been developed with foreign manufacturers to achieve the EASA engine type certificate. In this study, the AMT procedure is planned for the engine to be certified by the EASA, and AMT cycles are also established to meet airworthiness requirements of the CS-E in consideration of the engine design and operation characteristics.

  • By this time, many methods have been developed for computing the pit excavation volumes, ranging from a simple formula to more complicated numerical methods. Earlier the standard methods for pit excavation volume computation requires that the considered area be divided the boundary ranges of x and y directions into a rectangular grid. whereas these methods may not calculate the estimation of pit excavation volume that is often required in many surveying situation exactly. In Easa methods(1998), the rectangular grid is divided into the same linear in the range x and y directions respectively. This method employs a cubic Hermite polynomial for individual intervals in both directions of the grid. Because the height data over the same boundary of x and y interval ranges have to be exist, it is not possible to choose the governing points of the terrain boundary such as points of maximum and minimum height. In this study, a method of volume computation, that combines the advantages of Easa methods(1998) and avoids the drawbacks of it, is presented. The proposed method employs a cubic Hermite polynomial for individual intervals in both directions of the non-grid, the all over intervals of it may be unequal grid x in width and y in length y, partially. The new proposed method should produce better accuracy than the other conventional methods.
