Our team of experts – project managers, engineers and test pilots, continually ensures that manufacturers ensure, in compliance with the applicable regulations, a E high level of safety starting from the design – before a newly developed aircraft model may enter into operation – and throughout the lifecycle of the aircraft. The success of a certification process is mostly measured afterwards and varies in a way that is inversely proportional to the contribution of design factors to incidents and accidents. Certification relies on teams of enthusiasts seeking technical excellence and whose sole mission is to deliver a safe product. The job involves updating applicable technical standards, D methodologies and skills requirements for our experts.

  • CEAS Annual Report 2019
    CEAS Annual Report 2019 CEAS Trustee Board and officers The CEAS board of officers was as follows: 1. Zdobyslaw Goraj (president) 2. Cornelia Hillenherms (VP finance) 3. Pierre Bescond (VP external relations and publications) 4. Kaj Lundahl (VP awards and membership) 5. Mercedes Oliver (director general) 6. Torben Henriksen (branch chair space) 7. Christophe Hermans (branch chair aeronautics) CEAS effort for improving brand and recognition The main effort during the whole year 2019 was directed on improving CEAS visibility, building the new strategy and objectives, branding and CEAS corporate image. Some warning signals were arriving even earlier but finally in the spring 2019 we noticed that CEAS recognition is low. An apogee became very clear just before Aero Days 2019 held in Bucharest when CEAS was not officially invited to attend, whereas not European aeronautic and astronautic societies were asked to deliver key-note speeches. We asked the European Commission - DG Research & Innovation, Transport Directorate, which was responsible for Aero Days organisation, to include CEAS into the official programme but we failed. This small incident was very characteristic for CEAS recognition at the European research and dissemination landscape – out European societies are higher ranked than our own, fully European society. Therefore we decided that improvement of CEAS brand and recognition is an urgent must! To achieve this ambitious goal the CEAS Past Presidents proposed to prepare plans for coming years to help the President in current management. However, any planning must be based on a reliable diagnostic of situation, both external environment and internal structure of CEAS. Therefore, I prepared a mini SWAT analysis, showing our strength, weaknesses, opportunities and threats.
