Certain STC Privilege

Efficiency gains and cost savings

The European Union Aviation Safety Agency, EASA, has authorized us to approve “major changes” to aircraft, their engines and components within a clearly defined scope on our own. 

This privilege applies to recurring engineering solutions for we have already obtained STCs. It shows that we are able to manage similarity of design and repetitiveness of certification within an agreed framework.

It applies to cabin conversions for the A320ceo family and allows us to approve recurring cabin layout changes—such as seat reconfigurations, relocation of galleys or lavatories, and repositioning of class dividers—without individual EASA approval. 

This substantially shortens approval timelines, reduces the number of stakeholders, minimizes idle time, and lowers project risk.
