The General Aviation Manufacturers Association (GAMA) and the European Organization for Civil Aviation Equipment (EUROCAE) recently signed a memorandum of understanding to begin developing aviation industry standards to address issues such as hybrid electric propulsion, VTOL, cybersecurity and speed up the implementation of these new technologies. According to a news release, EUROCAE “develops standards for the industry that build upon the state of the art expertise of its members and addresses global aviation challenges to be adopted internationally and support the operational, development and regulatory processes.” As a first step to this synchronization GAMA joined EUROCAE as a full member earlier this year and is already actively involved in the EUROCAE Working Group on VTOL.
