European Organisation for Civil Aviation Equipment

European Organisation for Civil Aviation Equipment

EUROCAE, the European Organization for Civil Aviation Equipment was formed in Lucerne on the 24th April, 1963.EUROCAE has now been operating for more than 40 years as a non-profit organisation whose membership exclusively comprises aviation stakeholders made up of Manufacturers (aircraft, airborne equipment, ATM systems and ground equipment), Services Providers, National and International Aviation Authorities and Users (Airlines, Airports, operators) from Europe and elsewhere.From the outset, EUROCAE has developed performance specifications and other documents exclusively dedicated to the Aviation community. EUROCAE documents are widely referenced as a means of compliance to European Technical Standard Orders (ETSOs) and other regulatory documents.

As well as detailed test specifications (MOPS) EUROCAE also produces system performance and guidance documents, datalink application descriptions and overarching standards such as software and environmental test requirements; many of which are referenced by European Civil Aviation Authorities and regulatory bodies.EUROCAE works closely with US standardisation bodies, including RTCA and SAE, to produce harmonised specifications wherever possible. EUROCAE documents are also produced in the context of the applicable ICAO standards and are coherent with existing ARINC specifications to ensure global interoperability.

EUROCAE documents are developed by Working Groups (WG) composed of specialist scientists and engineers representing member organisations of EUROCAE and, in specific cases, other required competences from outside.

EUROCAE is under the authority of an elected council made up of senior staff from full member companies of the assiciation. The day-to-day work of the organsiation is carried out by the EUROCAE Secretariat comprising of a Secretary General, Technical Secretary and other administrative staff. The EUROCAE offices are based in Malakoff, France; on the edge of Paris.
