EASA is responsible for new type certificates and other design-related airworthiness approvals for aircraft, engines, propellers and parts. EASA works with the EU member states' civil aviation authorities (CAAs) but has taken over many of their functions in the interest of aviation standardisation across the EU and in the non-EU member Turkey.

Similar standards are maintained by other aviation authorities. For example European Technical Standard Orders (ETSO) by EASA for the European Union, [3] with limited reciprocal equivalence on a per-country basis. [4] These often have the same numbers as FAA TSOs. For example, the FAA TSO for aviation headsets is C139.
ATA 100 contains the reference to the ATA numbering system which is a common referencing standard for commercial aircraft documentation. This commonality permits greater ease of learning and understanding for pilots, aircraft maintenance technicians, and engineers alike.
The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) was created in 2003 and reached full functionality in 2008, and has since taken over most of the JAA functions. JAA Certification Specifications, formerly known as JARs, are recognised by EASA as an acceptable basis for showing compliance with their national airworthiness codes.
ATA Spec 100 [1] ' and iSpec 2200 [2] are information standards for aviation maintenance and flight operations [3] published by Airlines for America (formerly Air Transport Association). [ 4 ] These standards provide recommended specifications for the content, structure and deliverables to meet communication requirements [physical, electronic ...
The PHAC is submitted as part of the authorities 1st stage of involvement (SOI#1). It is important to note that: EASA wrote a certification memoranda to require the use of DO-254 for all complex electronics within a system, stating that all equipment and CBA with a Design assurance classification of A, B, C or D should meet level D objectives ...
Implementation of TCAS II Version 7.1 has been originally planned to start between 2009 and 2011 by retrofitting and forward fitting all the TCAS II equipped aircraft, with the goal that by 2014 the version 7.0 will be completely phased out and replaced by version 7.1. The FAA and EASA have already published the TCAS II Version 7.1 Technical ...
Gas-lubricated bearings are classified in two groups, depending on the source of pressurization of the gas film providing the load-carrying capacity: Aerostatic bearings: The gas is externally pressurized (using a compressor or a pressure tank) and injected in the clearance of the bearing. Consequently, aerostatic bearings can sustain loads ...
