We are pleased to announce the availability of the following draft EUROCAE document prepared by EUROCAE WG-105 SG-51 “ERA – Automatic Take-off and Landing” for Open Consultation:

ED-252 “Operational Services and Environment Definition for RPAS Automatic Take-off and Landing”

This Operational Services and Environment Definition (OSED) document provides the basis for assessing and establishing operational, safety, performance and interoperability requirements for the Automatic Take-Off and Landing (ATOL) capability of Remotely Piloted Aircraft Systems (RPAS), requirements further detailed in the associated complementary documents: Interoperability (INTEROP) and Safety and Performance Requirements (SPR) documents.
