Welcome to the Future Flight Standards Hub

The Future Flight Standards Hub is designed to accelerate the development of Future Flight demonstrators and wider industry innovation based on emerging best practice, knowledge sharing, and standards support.

Background of UAS Pathway Roadmap

Recommended Posts

Background 
BSI has developed a standards roadmap to support growth and industrialization of Future Flight in the UK.
Standards that support routine UAS BVLOS Operations in integrated airspace at scale are identified. 
This is assumed to be for operations in the Specific Category.

Identification and Prioritization
Inputs from Future Flight Challenge projects, EASA’s Project Shepherd and ANSI Standardization Roadmap 2.0 Gaps Progress Report were used to compile an initial long list of standards. 

As the UK is adopting SORA v2.5, the identified standards were then prioritized based on their potential to be used as acceptable means of compliance (AMC) to meet the requirements for SORA. You can find out more about the BSI Flex 1906 Acceptable means of compliance to Specific Operation Risk Assessment (SORA) here

For ease of reference, the UAS pathway standards roadmap has been grouped into 10 themes to support industry specifically in their particular areas of interest - Competency, Operations, Enterprise Safety Management and Assurance, Flightworthiness, C2 / C3 Link, Digital Trust and Assurance, Airspace Integration, Electronic Conspicuity, Detect and Avoid and Class Marking.

Note 
To highlight standards specifically for Future Flight, applicable standards from conventional aviation are not included, e.g.

  • ARP4754/ED-79, Guidelines for development of civil aircraft and systems
  • DO-178C/ED-12C, Software Considerations in Airborne Systems and Equipment Certification
  • DO-254/ED-80, Design Assurance Guidance for Airborne Electronic Hardware
  • DO-160G, Environmental Conditions and Test Procedures for Airborne Equipment
