  1. TRANSITION FROM JAA to EASAInstitutional changes in Europe Klaus KOPLIN JAA Chief Executive

  2. Considerations Smooth transition from JAA to EASA is a challenge that requires good co-operation Some issues: Preparation of all necessary texts and working methods; transfer of tasks; participation of European Third Countries; Co-operation with other Authorities and Organisations, while building at present JAA achievements JAA is committed to smooth transition and at the same time to maintain Safety and Security

  3. Transition Activities Essential Requirements, Implementing rules, Certification Specifications and other texts: Concept of Core Groups set up by DG-TREN Organisation, working methods of the Agency: Consultant tasked by DG-TREN Impact of EASA on JAA: JAA and EU/ECAC/JAA Task force European Third countries association process and legal aspects of Bilateral agreements: EU

  4. Core Groups Concept 11 Core groups to be set-up: Essential requirements: for Operations and Licensing Implementing Rules: IR 21; IR 34&36; IR 39;IR M; IR 145; IR 66&147. Certification specifications (including airworthiness codes): aircraft and parts and appliances; Engine, Propellers and APUs Regulations interactions.

  5. Core Groups Concept Two set of guidelines agreed: • For essential requirements • For other texts Objectives of the core groups: • Adapt current aviation regulations to future EASA texts without reviewing technical issues • Develop the missing parts (e.g. restricted type certificates); technical work necessary.

  6. Core Groups Concept Some highlights of the guidance: Essential requirements: • “definition” • Top-down approach Other texts; • Basically adapt current texts into EASA legal framework • Implementing rules: technical requirements and Administrative procedures

  7. Core Groups Concept Some highlights of the guidance: Deliverables:Early drafts that will be processed through the future EASA consultation and validation process The NPA system will not be used but: Sectorial Teams kept informed and their inputs will be considered. Composition of Core Groups: extended on a case-by-case basis

  8. CJAA involvement in Consultant activities CJAA involvement on the following topics: • Potential Structure of the Agency • Advisory Body of Interested Parties • Communication and Publication Strategy • Rule-making • Enforcement • Standardisation

  9. CJAA involvement in Consultant activities CJAA involvement on the following topics: • Certification of people and organisations • Certification of products • Training and development for the staff • Transition and Implementation

  10. CJAA and JAA Governing Bodies Revision of JAA Business Plan • new activities related to the transition to EASA were added • tasks in the original BP have been reprioritised classifying them into: • Priority tasks to be performed this year • Tasks to be passed to Core Groups • Tasks to be passed to Consultant • Other tasks (no-priority) postponed or deleted

  11. CJAA and JAA Governing Bodies • The revised BP aims at: • finding additional resources to contribute to the EASA transition • formalising all activities as part of JAA ‘business’ activities for the coming year(s) needed to get EASA up and running • The revised BP will be reviewed by the JAAC 02/2 in Phoenix and then approved by the JAAB in July.

  12. CJAA and EU/ECAC/JAA task force Key-issues How will all JAA Member States manage regulatory activity in Operations and Licensing after establishment of EASA? How will non EU/JAA countries manage airworthiness regulatory and certification activities after the establishment of EASA?

  13. CJAA and EU/ECAC/JAA task force The task force needs to develop on the basis of the key – issues a range of (management-) models, each with its pro’s and con’s. All models need further discussion: • Division of tasks between EASA and JAA; • Endow JAA with a minimum of tasks; • Disband JAA and transfer all tasks to EASA

  14. Conclusion • EASA shall be operational as planned • Coordination and cooperation between EASA and JAA is essential • Any “new JAA” must be in place when EASA starts operating • We must ensure a common approach with all European countries • The transition process must be transparent

  15. Conclusion JAA is committed to the smooth transition from JAA to EASA
