Recommendations arising from the investigation into the fatal June 2009 Air France flight 447 loss-of-control accident have prompted the European Aviation Safety Agency to prepare a radical rulemaking programme.
Confirming its plans, EASA says that when drafted, the proposed regulations - mostly on pilot training - will be subject to the statutory consultation process. Therefore, it may be a year or more before any resulting regulatory change sees the light of day.
EASA confirms that a mandate for "loss-of-control avoidance and recovery training" is already included in its rulemaking programme. The specific recommendation by French accident investigation agency BEA is that EASA should: "Review the content of check and training programmes and make mandatory, in particular, the setting up of specific and regular exercises dedicated to manual aircraft handling of approach to stall and stall recovery, including at high altitude."
