On July 1, CAAC Deputy Administrator Li Jian led a Chinese civil aviation delegation to visit Hungry, during which they had consultations with Hungarian civil aviation authority on airworthiness cooperation and signed technical arrangement on airworthiness certification cooperation for light and small-sized aeronautical products. The signing of the arrangement will provide a path for exchange and airworthiness certification cooperation for slight and small-sized aeronautical products between China and Hungry, creating a good bilateral environment for cooperation between the enterprises of both countries.

According to EU basic regulation, certification of light and small-sized aeronautical products shall be done by civil aviation authority of respective states. Due to the import and export need and demand for company cooperation related to light and small-sized aeronautical products, China and Hungry launched consultation over bilateral cooperation documents early this year, which was finally signed after agreement was made based on assessment of each other’s airworthiness certification system and certification activities, and several rounds of exchanges over the text of the arrangement.
