EASA Supports ASTM Progress in CS/Part 23 Rewrite
GAMA and ASTM hosted a workshop to propel the rewrite of general aviation rules, where EASA, European Commission expressed strong support.

The rewrite of the EASA’s CS-23 and the FAA’ s Part 23 rules (known as the “CS/Part 23 Reorganization” initiative) is taking shape, and at a workshop last month in Brussels European authorities expressed unconditional support for the effort. Manufacturers of light aircraft (up to 12,500 pounds) are propelling this effort to establish more practical rules.
