Consultation: Legislation for new types of Vertical Take-Off and Landing (VTOL) aircraft 

The CAA, sponsored by the Department for Transport, is identifying the proposed regulatory changes needed to accommodate the safe use of new types of VTOL aircraft in the UK.

Following our initial consultation and consultation response document on the policy frameworks for new types of VTOL, the CAA is consulting further on the detail of these frameworks – specifically covering Complex-Motor Powered Aircraft (CMPA), continuing airworthiness, pilot licensing and flight operations regulations. 

We invite stakeholders to give us their views.
