Leonardo: the AW169 helicopter achieves FAA validation The AgustaWestland AW169 light intermediate twin-engine helicopter has achieved validation by FAA of the United States of its certification, with deliveries to begin in USA this year. A versatile, new generation twin-engine light-intermediate category helicopter, the AW169 has been designed in response to the growing market demand for an aircraft that delivers high performance, meets all the latest safety standards and has multi-role capabilities. The AW169 incorporates several new technology features in the rotor system, engines, avionics, transmission and electric power generation and distribution systems and is ideal for VIP and EMS requirements in the United States. The type has already been selected for a range of duties including executive/private transport, air ambulance, offshore transport and utility roles, with agreements signed for over 150 units including orders and options worldwide. The AW169 is part of the family of new generation helicopters that includes the AW139 and AW189 models, which possess the same high performance flight characteristics and safety features as well as sharing a common cockpit layout, design philosophy and maintenance/training concept. This commonality will allow more effective operations for customers operating helicopter fleets across the 4 to 9 tonne categories. Over 20 AW169s have been delivered to date to customers around the world for a range of applications including emergency medical service, executive/private transport, utility, offshore transport and wind farm support. An AW169 Level D full flight simulator, delivering advanced pilot training, has been certified and is in operation at the Leonardo Training Academy in Sesto Calende, Italy. .

European Aviation Safety Agency Notice of Proposed Amendment 2018-13 Appendix I to AMC to Annex III (Part-66) Aircraft type ratings for Part-66 aircraft maintenance licences RMT.0541 (66.024) EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This Notice of Proposed Amendment (NPA) addresses a regulatory coordination issue related to aircraft type ratings. According to the AMC to Annex III (Part-66), type ratings should be endorsed on an aircraft maintenance licence (AML) in accordance with Appendix I to AMC to Part-66 ‘List of type ratings’. An NPA is issued regularly to amend this list, after assessing feedback received from the industry, and to add new aircraft types or to remove aircraft types whose type certificate (TC) has been revoked or surrendered. This NPA adds also the tables of the new Group as a consequence of the introduction of the ‘L’ licence subcategories by Commission Regulation (EU) 2018/1142. The main objective is to ensure a common standard throughout the Member States. Action area: Regular updates/review of rules Affected rules: AMC/GM to Annex III (Part-66) to Commission Regulation (EU) No 1321/2014 Affected stakeholders: Maintenance certifying staff; maintenance training organisations; maintenance organisations; competent authorities Driver: Efficiency/proportionality Rulemaking group: No Impact assessment: None Rulemaking Procedure: Standard 12.5.2009 5.12.2018 2019/Q2 TE.RPRO.00034-008 © European Aviation Safety Agency.

Italia Occupata, Italia Commerciante Di Armi Letali Fabbriche D'armi in Italia
titolo: Italia colonia, Italia commerciante di armi letali Italia occupata, Italia commerciante di armi letali Premessa Questo dossier è una ricognizione delle 114 basi militari USA e Nato in Italia, e delle 137 aziende produttrici di armi o servizi all’industria bellica. Dalle bombe a grappolo, ai missili, alle armi chimiche, ai droni, ai sofisticati sistemi di sorveglianza e supporto, l’Italia è un grande obiettivo di ritorsione in caso di guerra del terzo millennio. Si noti nelle brevi descrizioni delle aziende, ricavate dai siti delle stesse, l’estrema specializzazione raggiunta dell’”ingegno” italiano, degno di miglior causa. Se quelle intelligenze, competenze, capitali fossero stati usati – nell’ultimo mezzo secolo - per affrontare e risolvere le vere emergenze dell’umanità – fame, povertà, acqua inquinata, malattie curabili, clima alterato, energia pulita, ecc - semplicemente non ci sarebbe stato alcun bisogno né della NATO né dell’industria bellica, ed il pianeta sarebbe più giusto ed equilibrato, anziché sulla soglia della terza guerra mondiale. Una questione di scelte, macropolitiche, ma anche micropolitiche, come si vedrà ad esempio nella subalternità dei sindacati e della ex sinistra tradizionale. Va aggiunto anche che le nuove forze politiche sulla scena in Italia si sono da subito allineate sia al blocco NATO, sia al sostegno dell’industria bellica, che gode di un sostegno bipartizan, nonostante il Beppe nazionale tuonasse, ancora nel 2005, contro le banche armate. Si noti anche che diverse aziende belliche italiane sono molto interessate alla tecnologia del 5G, per la quale il Governo Conte 1 ha già incassato 6,5 miliardi di euro per le concessioni alle aziende di telefonia mobile, senza nessuna garanzia sulla salute, né sui risvolti militari nascosti della stessa tecnologia.
