5. European GA manufacturers capability Issues to be solved during the session or at next WP/T meetings: Estimation of EPATS Airplanes manufacturing potential capability of GA manufacturers in Europe – data source:  EASA web-site survey,  Jane’s All of the World Aircraft,  Questionnaire sent to 24 European firms with POA A2 (small airplanes),  GAMA statistics for 2007. Results of the survey: European GA manufacturers capability (annual output) is limited by finalists with EASA POA (A2). Results of the questionnaire - answer from 5 firms (3 Czech, 1 Italian, and 1 French): Preference in metallic airframe, lower threshold of interest even below 100 a/c per year, upper threshold of interest about 1000 a/c per year. Notes about GAMA: GAMA conducts good statistics. Some European GA manufacturers are GAMA members. EPATS Conference, ILA Berlin, May 28th, 2008 5

6. European GA manufacturers capability Issues to be solved during the session or at next WP/T meetings: Estimation of EPATS Airplanes manufacturing potential capability of GA manufacturers in Europe – assumptions:  In short-coming years total level of employees will be stable (about 11 500 employees),  In short-coming years there will be no big technology improvements,  Some GA manufacturers are underloaded by their own products, and some are fully loaded. Results of rough estimation of EPATS Airplanes manufacturing potential capability of GA manufacturers in Europe:  Maximum 5300 airplanes / year,  More realistic number 3200 airplanes / year.  More airplanes per year – more employees needed.

7. European GA manufacturers capability Issues to be solved during the session or at next WP/T meetings: Estimation of EPATS Airplanes manufacturing potential capability of GA manufacturers in Europe – comment about total quantity of airplanes: According to learning curve, potential capability depends on total quantity of airplanes EPATS Conference, ILA Berlin, May 28th, 2008 7 Possible actual capability range (20 MMH disposed)

8. European GA manufacturers capability Issues to be solved during the session or at next WP/T meetings: Estimation of EPATS Airplanes manufacturing potential capability of GA manufacturers in Europe – other comments:  On GA market it is strong competition between US and European manufacturers (note: European products are sold also in the USA),  Changes observed in EC policy acording to GA may influence growth of European GA manufacturers capabilities (EC memorandum January 11th, 2008, FP6 projects EPATS, CESAR).
