Preparing for New Responsibilities in Aviation Safety: EASA's Expanded Role and Future Directions

On June 3, 2008, Patrick Goudou, Executive Director of EASA, outlined the agency's new responsibilities at the US/Europe International Aviation Safety Conference. With the adoption of the new "Basic Regulation," effective April 2008, EASA solidifies its position as Europe’s central rulemaking body, enforcing common safety standards across the EU. The transition will include comprehensive public consultations and cover various areas such as flight crew licensing, operations oversight, and third-country operator authorizations. Key initiatives and upcoming workshops aim to ensure a seamless integration of new rules.
