FAQ Answer
In the future will the aerodrome inspector be from the UK CAA or EASA?
Aerodromes that are subject to EASA regulations will still use the UK CAA as their main point of contact and will continue to have dedicated operations and rescue and fire fighting aerodrome inspectors. It will remain the CAA’s responsibility to audit and inspect aerodromes in its capacity as the National Aviation Authority. EASA will conduct audits of all the NAAs in its jurisdiction to ensure standardisation.
