GM1 UAS.SPEC.100Ā Ā The use of certified equipment and certified unmanned aircraft

ED Decision 2019/021/R

GENERAL

For the purposes of UAS.SPEC.100, ā€˜certified equipment’ is considered to be any equipment for which the relevant design organisation has demonstrated compliance with the applicable certification specifications and received a form of recognition from EASA that attests such compliance (e.g. an ETSO authorisation). This process is independent from the CE marking process.

The use of certified equipment or certified UA in the ā€˜specific’ category of operation does not imply a transfer of the flight activities into the ā€˜certified’ category of operation. However, the use of certified equipment or certified UA in the ā€˜specific’ category should be considered as a risk reduction and/or mitigation measure in the SORA.
