EASA updates the Easy Access Rules for Air Traffic Management/Air Navigation Services (Regulation (EU) 2017/373)

The European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) published the updated Easy Access Rules for Air Traffic Management/Air Navigation Services (ATM/ANS) (Revision from July 2021).

These consolidated, up-to-date rules are displayed in an easy-to-read format with advanced navigation features through links and bookmarks and are downloadable for free from the EASA website.

The Easy Access Rules for ATM/ANS are updated with ED Decision 2021/008/R amending the Acceptable Means of Compliance (AMC) and Guidance Material (GM) to Part-CNS of Regulation (EU) 2017/373. A new AMC introduces the conditions that apply to surveillance providers providing the transmission service for locating an aircraft in distress. The amendments are expected to improve safety as they will facilitate locating an accident scene.

As it is generated through the eRules platform, the document will be updated regularly to incorporate further changes and evolutions to its content.
