On 18 September 2014, Gothenburg City Airport became the first in Sweden to publish an EGNOS-based approach procedure.

Today 2 airports in the southern part of UK – Exeter and Bristol – have published EGNOS-based approach procedures (LPV procedures) than can be used from now on for landing operations.

The Beechcraft 76 GBXWA from Aviation South West (ASW) performed the first approach of this type ever operationally flown in the UK.

The Total amount for the Call is 6 Million €.

In the frame of the EU MEDUSA project, ESSP actively participated in the final event onGNSS for Aviationheld in Tunis, June 4^th, to support the potential use of EGNOS SoL Service in Civil Aviation applications beyond the European Union and specifically in the EuroMed region.    

The message coming from the 14^th annual European Business Aviation Conference and Exhibition (EBACE) – the annual meeting and exhibition of the European business aviation sector – was clear: business aviation needs EGNOS.

The World ATM Congress proves to be an ideal venue for EGNOS to engage with partners and to introduce airports and ANSPs to the benefits of Performance Based Navigation (PBN). An EGNOS dedicated workshop organised by the European GNSS Agency (GSA) and ESSP on 4^th March brings together ANSPs and airports interested in operational implementation.

MEDUSA’s team led by Telespazio and composed by ENAV, OACA, INECO and Helios, have validated EGNOS-based approach procedures designed by the project for the airport of Monastir in Tunisia.
