LEGAL FRAMEWORK FOR СCERTIFICATION AVIATION EQUIPMENT OF CIVIL PURPOSE

О. В. Чуприна

Abstract


The article is devoted to the study of the general principles of certification aviation equipment of civil purpose. The main job certification is confirmation of compliance of aircraft, engines, air propellers and other aviation equipment with established safety and airworthiness requirements. It is concluded that certification covers not only individual components of aviation equipment, but also the system as a whole, including the processes of development, production, operation and technical maintenance.

Ukraine is actively working on harmonizing national rules with international standards, which contributes to the development of international cooperation and simplification of certification procedures. The article analyzes the standards of the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) and the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) and concludes that the state is taking important steps for successful integration into international aviation space. Such implementation makes it possible to ensure a high level of flight safety, technical compatibility with the international aviation system, economic advantage and increased competitiveness of the Ukrainian aviation industry.
