VTOL Special Condition<br />

Paving the way to enable safe air travel of<br />

urban air mobility and air taxi aircraft<br />

Background / Rationale:<br />

• Addressing potential future air mobility<br />

platforms<br />

• Combining small rotorcraft (CS27) and<br />

normal-category aeroplanes (CS-23)<br />

Electric and Hybrid Propulsion Systems: Background<br />

On-going certification projects around<br />

electric and hybrid propulsion<br />

• Different systems: electric propulsion /<br />

hybrid systems<br />

• At a/c level: the propulsive system are<br />

certified as part of the A/C<br />

• At engine level: electric engine or a<br />

complete propulsive system are certified as<br />

« an engine »<br />

• All projects are dealt on a case by case<br />

Pre-projects activities:<br />

• TAC (Technical advice Contract) to cover CT<br />

activities during a pre-project phase<br />

• IPC (Innovation Partnership Contracts) to<br />

cover cross-directorates topics<br />

Standardization activities

EHPS: Special Condition<br />

Motivation<br />

• Consistency between projects that all look different.<br />

Up to now: SC on a case by case<br />

• (Required to support the use of ASTM F3338 for FAA)<br />

SC Propulsion format<br />

• Technology agnostic<br />

Objectives<br />

• Promote innovation<br />

• Non-prescriptive Objective based design specifications<br />

for propulsion (electric, hybrid,…) provided in a special<br />

condition (same framework as SC VTOL).<br />

• Provide the safety requirements for any kind of<br />

propulsion<br />

• Provide the safety requirements for any type of<br />

certification (propulsion within the a/c or on its own)<br />

• Be harmonized with other authorities

EHPS: MoC – Database<br />

Motivation<br />

• All projects look different<br />

• Consistency between projects<br />

• Gain knowledge: learning by doing<br />

Objectives<br />

• Common to all “electric or hybrid” projects<br />

• Flexibility & adaptability<br />

• Living database, easily updated<br />

• Rulemaking activity in the medium term<br />

• Be harmonized with other authorities
