EBAA updates rules on equipping aircraft with data link services:
17 July 2019: The European Business Aviation Association has updated their rules on equipping aircraft with data link services for the Single European Sky, and specifically the exemption for almost all aircraft used by the business aviation sector.
The exemption means that most business aviation operators will no longer have to retrofit their aircraft with the current datalink equipment which does not offer operational benefits. The previous criteria placed an undue economic burden on some operator categories which contribute considerably less to Europe's overall number of flights.
EBAA Secretary-General, Athar Husain Khan said, "We thank the European Commission for their cooperation and we are pleased that our call for a workable solution recognising the specificities of business aviation were integrated in the amended data link rules."
