20-21 November 2018

Limited seats!
Reserve yours now!

EUROCAE is pleased to announce a new two-day training course on Aviation Software Safety Standards taking place 20-21 November 2018 in Saint-Denis, Paris area, France.

With airborne and ground-based aviation systems increasingly interconnected, the landscape for critical systems software is changing.

Whether you are an ANSP specifying or accepting a system, the person responsible for system maintenance, or a supplier at the cutting edge of software product development, you will need to understand the standards options available to you, how to apply them, and the impact on costs.

This course takes a practical and interactive approach to the subject matter, drawing on the trainers’ extensive experience in both aviation safety and critical systems software development.

Attendees will receive complimentary copies of ED-12C, ED-109A and ED-153.

Places are limited, so pre-register now to reserve your seat.

For any additional information please contact Adrian Cioranu at adrian.cioranu@eurocae.net.

WG-72 will work on the following deliverables:

• New document Guidance on Security Event Management;
• Revision of ED-201 AISS Framework Guidance Document;
• Revision of ED-204 Information Security Guidance for Continuing Airworthiness.

WG-98 "Aircraft ELTs" meeting

28 - 31 August, Saint-Denis, France

Following a successful Open Consultation/FRAC, WG-98 “Aircraft Emergency Locator Transmitters” met jointly with RTCA SC-229 at the EUROCAE premises in Saint-Denis. The joint committee reviewed  comments received and will finalise ED-62B / DO-204B “MOPS for Aircraft Emergency Locator Transmitters 406 MHz” shortly.

While opening the meeting, Christian Schleifer, EUROCAE Secretary General, noted the important achievement of the WG/SC to develop such a high quality standard, which is now fully harmonised between EUROCAE and RTCA and recognised that this is only possible through the voluntary workforce and thanked the

members for their commitment to this activity.

The document is expected to be published by the end of the year and referenced by both EASA and the FAA.

This will successfully complete the work of the joint committee.

EUROCAE WG-98 continues to work on the development of MASPS for ELT Return Link Services.
