  4. PPL/IR EuropeBasics • Founded in 1993 • Non-profit organisation • For private pilots flying IFR or to get IR • More than 450 members • From all over Europe • Working for the interests of members in relation to authorities, manufacturers etc. • Main issues are the rapid changes in European aviation rules and regulations

  5. PPL/IR EuropeCharacteristics • Member of EAS • Member of AOPA • GA and Business aircraft • Flying for business (85%) and private purposes (to get somewhere) • Small aircraft – but some are very capable • Not an Airline economic perspective

  6. European rules and regulations • Various views on European rules and regulations; harmonisation should be to help not hinder. • Existing JAA ground training requirements for private IR pilots must change to encourage rating and safety • FRAs and ICAO licences (particularly FAA) should be accepted in EU (subject to controls)

  7. Airspace issues • Charging scheme • Transition level / SES lower extension • Airspace classification • Mode S / ADSB • P-RNAV • GA needs access to controlled airspace • Terminal and approach at regional airports • Operating at FL 100 most of the time

  8. P-RNAV • A very nice concept • TGL 10 is only for new high-end glass cockpit equipped aircraft • Could be useful for regional airports • Many light aircraft have capable GPS equipment • GA still needs access to mandated airspace • GPS approaches to smaller airfields must be encouraged

  9. Future developments • Rules and Regulations that are: - sensible - practical • economical • transparent process • Rules and regulations that also: - take GA and Business aviation fully into account - recognise the “beneficiary should pay” principle • Accountable authorities
