DE&S Airworthiness Team

The DE&S Airworthiness Team aims to provide timely airworthiness help to DE&S teams and to give confidence to Chief of Materiel (Air) that airworthiness is being effectively managed in DE&S.

The DE&S Airworthiness Team provides a ‘one-stop DE&S shop’ for coordinated Airworthiness advice and support.

  • It works with the Military Aviation Authority and front line commands on the development and delivery of airworthiness regulations and policy.
  • The team can offer advice and support on projects with cross-platform implications, and coordinate pan-air elements of airworthiness issues.
  • It provides technical help to enable teams to specify, monitor, accept and deliver airworthy systems.
  • Create community of professionally recognised airworthiness practitioners and engineers to share best practice and provide mutual support.
