ED Decision 2025/007/R
(a) The GH manual or parts of it may be presented in any form, including electronic form. In all cases, the GH organisation should ensure that the manual is accessible, usable and reliable.
(b) The GH manual should be such that:
(1) all parts of it are consistent and compatible in form and content;
(2) it can be easily revised;
(3) the parts that address GH‑specific processes and activities are clearly marked or separated so as not to be confused with other parts applicable to other domains if the organisation applies an integrated management system and holds other certificates, approvals or authorisations, or declares that it performs other activities in the scope of Regulation (EU) 2018/1139;
(4) its content and revision status are controlled and clearly indicated.
(c) The GH manual should include a description of the process for its amendment and revision, specifying:
(1) the person(s) who may approve amendments or revisions;
(2) the specific conditions for temporary revisions and/or immediate amendments; and
(3) the methods by which all personnel and organisations, including the service providers contracted by the GH organisation and performing GH tasks, are advised of amendments to the manual.
(d) The GH manual’s content may be based on, or refer to, industry standards and good practices.
(e) The GH manual may contain parts of, or refer to, other relevant controlled documents, such as the aerodrome manual of the aerodrome where the GH organisation provides services, other manuals, industry standards or good practice material. If the GH organisation uses material from another source, that material should either be copied and included directly in the relevant part of the GH manual or the GH manual should contain a reference to the appropriate section of that applicable material.
(f) A translated version of the relevant parts of the GH manual is an accepted means of complying with the related relevant requirements. In any case, the persons who will use the manual or its translated parts should be able to read and understand them. The GH organisation should ensure that the translated version is always the most recent version of that document.
(g) The content of the GH manual should be reviewed to determine any necessary updates not later than every 24Â months, to ensure that it remains current.
