• MAWA approach
• Progress Achieved
• Next Steps
• Benefits
Background to the MAWA Initiative
www.eda.europa.eu 4
Early Impulses
• Civil aviation harmonisation of airworthiness since 1944
Chicago Convention. The military applied national rather than
harmonised/international approach
• However, military in Europe recognised that there were
drawbacks to the fragmented approach to airworthiness
management
• First steps were made when Nations started common
multinational programmes ( Tornado, Typhoon, NH90, A400M…)
and with higher integration of aerospace industry (ASD)
• Number of international activities for coordination of military
airworthiness started in 2003-4 period: - NSA, FINAS, OCCAR,
JMAAN, ETAP..

EDA Political Decisions
• April 2008- National Armaments Steering Board (SB) tasked EDA to prepare
for the creation of an EU-wide Airworthiness forum
• Nov 2008-EDA Steering Board (SB) decision of MODs to establish the MAWA
Forum with a view to developing an EU-wide regulatory framework
• Nov 2009-Defence Ministers‟ Political Declaration for the timely
development and early implementation of the harmonised European Military
Airworthiness Requirements (EMARs) into national regulations
• Nov 2013-Defence Ministers‟ Political Declaration on certification and
airworthiness
• framework conditions necessary to support certification of military RPAS
• monitor and encourage possible solutions for a coherent and timely implementation of
European Military Airworthiness Requirements, taking advantage of lessons learned
• EDA is invited to report back on the progress achieved by the end of 2014 and regularly
thereafter.

MAWA Forum approach
• MAWA Forum is made up of representatives from National
Military Airworthiness Authorities (or equivalent)
• MAWA Forum has the mandate, responsibility and authority
to develop the harmonised European Military Airworthiness
processes necessary to achieve the Roadmap objectives
• Additionally, to meet the Roadmap objectives, common
European Military Airworthiness Requirements (EMARs) are
being developed
• Implementation of the EMARs into national regulations
remains a sovereign decision of each pMS, noting the
political declaration made in Nov 2009.

Recognition Activities
• EMAD R has been developed to formalize the process by which nations can recognize airworthiness activities carried out by another pMS (e.g. certificates and approvals)
• In March 2013, FR (DSAE) & UK (MAA) became first 2 pMS to recognise each others activities, in the field of continuing airworthiness primarily focused on the A400M ISS.
• In December 2013, French (DSAÉ) Recognised NMAA of Spain - (DGAM) on
Continuing Airworthiness Assurance

• To maintain the momentum achieved so far in Harmonising airworthiness activities amongst pMS
• Continue the development of EMARs and associated AMCs and GMs
- Target is to complete development of all EMARs by end 2015
• The main focus for National Military Airworthiness Authorities will be EMAR implementation
- EMAR Question Sets being developed to enable EMAR compliance declaration process to aid Recognition
Future MAWA Forum activities
Benefits

Benefits of Harmonisation
• Safety within Civil & Military aviation is paramount
• „Key Enabler‟ for „Pooling & Sharing‟ activities
• Enhanced Military-Military & Civil-Military cooperation
• Reduced time & costs for new aircraft development
• Common approach to maintenance and repair
- Better possibility for outsourcing of maintenance and repair
- Cross border maintenance
- Improved cooperation on operations
