This Call for Grants is targeted to users looking to equip their aircraft and rotorcraft fleets with SBAS enabled avionics, including the development of Supplemental Type Certificates (STC) or Service Bulletins (SB), and also to Air Navigation Service Providers and aerodromes/ heliports willing to publish EGNOS-based operations and in particular APV SBAS procedures (LPV) in Europe.

The Total amount for the Call is 6 Million €.

Should you require technical assistance when elaborating your proposals, the ESSP will be delighted to support you: You might find our experience in other LPV/SBAS implementation activities in the past useful when dimensioning your proposal (e.g. resources, effort, costs, milestones, planning and identification of potential risks). Also, should you need assistance from external entities such as procedures designers, flight validation companies, manufacturers, Part 21 and Part 145 companies or STC holders amongst others, the ESSP could help you find the perfect partner for you.
