UK Civil Aviation Regulations

These are published by the CAA on our UK Regulations pages. EU Regulations and EASA Access Guides published by EASA no longer apply in the UK. Our website and publications are being reviewed to update all references. Any references to EU law and EASA Access guides should be disregarded and where applicable the equivalent UK versions referred to instead.



The table below gives an overview of the delivery elements that structure the delivery plans set out in Part 2 and (in due course) Part 3 of the Airspace Modernisation Strategy (AMS).

There are nine elements arranged under two headings: aircraft-based navigation and airspace management. The 15 initiatives from the 2018 AMS, delivery of which will continue, are subsumed into these nine elements.

More information is in AMS Part 2 and the linked database.
