An Airline Transport Pilot Licence (ATPL) allows a pilot to fly as pilot-in-command of multi-pilot aircraft in commercial air transport operations. It requires fourteen theoretical exams with a mandatory ground-school course. EASA also issues the Multi-crew Pilot Licence (MPL). This allows a pilot to fly as co-pilot in a multi-crew aircraft.
The Enhanced Avionics System (or EASy) is an integrated modular avionics suite and cockpit display system used on Dassault Falcon business jets since Falcon 900EX, and later used in other newer Falcon aircraft such as Falcon 2000EX and Falcon 7X. [1] EASy has been jointly developed by Dassault and Honeywell, and is based on Honeywell Primus ...
A quick access recorder (QAR) is an airborne flight recorder designed to provide quick and easy access to raw flight data, [1] through means such as USB [2] or cellular network [3] connections and/or the use of standard flash memory cards. [2]
Flight recorder (orange) in the aft equipment center of Boeing 747. Avionics bay, also known as E&E bay or electronic equipment bay in aerospace engineering is known as compartment in an aircraft that houses the avionics and other electronic equipment, such as flight control computers, navigation systems, communication systems, and other electronic equipment essential for the operation.
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.

As the structure of the modules network is unified, it is mandatory to use a common API to access the hardware and network resources, thus simplifying the hardware and software integration. IMA concept also allows the Application developers to focus on the Application layer , reducing the risk of faults in the lower-level software layers.
Crew rest design and safety considerations are similar between international regulators, for example the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) regulations for access control, communications, and signage are similar to those of the FAA's. [9]
The joint development of standards and the subsequent reference of those standards by EASA and the FAA as Acceptable Means of Compliance allows for a globally harmonised implementation of specific applications or systems based on the state of the art technology. This includes aircraft but also satellites.
