The FAA and EASA used their Chantilly conference to lock in deeper cooperation on aviation safety as rapid innovation reshapes certification, oversight, and cockpit operations. Their pledge covers stronger information exchange, data-driven safety management, streamlined approval paths for new technologies, automated flightdeck systems, modernized simulator training, and tighter coordination on cyber threats, GPS and GNSS interference, conflict zones, and extreme weather.
The message is clear: regulators want faster adoption of new capability without diluting safety margins or public confidence. For operators and manufacturers, that points to closer alignment on rulemaking, certification, and operational data sharing across the Atlantic.
