OP offers no hint just how such great additional effort is to be paid for.
- arcturus17 7y agoWhat’s your implication here? That they won’t be able to do it? Or are you solely concerned with the good budgetary health of EU institutions?

- theYipster 7y agoThe FAA and EASA have very different operating models, so budgets are not comparable. FAA certification efforts are tax-payer funded, whereas EASA’s efforts are funded by industry in a pay-for-service model.
