CAA Proposed amendments to the UK Performance-Based Navigation Regulation

Consultation description:

The Civil Aviation Authority are currently proposing to amend and consolidate the regulations that govern Performance-based Navigation (PBN) in the UK to support the development of a systemised, sustainable, and modernised airspace network that meets the needs of economic growth, enables noise mitigation, and helps to reduce greenhouse gasses.

They want your views on:

The purpose of this consultation is to seek views on proposals to update PBN legislation in the UK by amending and consolidating Assimilated Regulation (EU) 2018/1048 (the UK PBN Regulation) and the PBN elements contained within Assimilated Regulation (EU) No. 716/2014 (the UK PCP Regulation).

The proposed changes, which are set out in their CAP3045 : Proposed amendments to the UK Performance-Based Navigation Regulation, cover areas including:

  • Refreshing the requirements and implementation dates for implementing PBN

  • Aligning PBN with the objectives set out within the CAA Airspace Modernisation Strategy (AMS); and

  • Achieving consistency in application and maintaining interoperability with equivalent regulations in the European Union (EU)

Why your views matter

Your feedback will help the CAA to better understand whether there are any issues that still need to be resolved, concerns to be addressed and improvements to be made, and whether our proposed timelines are reasonable before a proposal is put to the Secretary of State (Department for Transport) for new legislation.

Please submit your comments to the CAA using their online survey. If you have any questions regarding the consultation content or need any clarification, please email pbnconsultation@caa.co.uk
