License Application Support

Scroll

Osprey’s expert knowledge of Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) Regulations (Conventional Aviation and Space) means we are uniquely placed to provide expert advice to Aerodrome, Advanced Air Mobility, Spaceport and Space Launch developers and operators alike.

Our staff have worked with numerous airports and aviation operators in the UK and internationally to help our clients understand how to apply, support or maintain an existing license. We are also advising UK Spaceport developers in their license application for the new space regulations and existing aviation regulations, to develop first of type space launch capability in the UK.

Our deep understanding of the regulations, our relationship with the aviation / space regulators and our knowledge of ‘what good looks like’ has been instrumental in our licensing support to our clients, based on knowledge and application of the following CAA regulations:

  • Civil Aviation Publication (CAP)168 – “Licensing of Aerodromes”
  • CAP2209 – Applying for a licence under the space industry act 2018
  • CAP2221 – Regulator’s licensing rules

As part of the overarching aviation safety case for MARS Tanker, Osprey were requested at very short notice to provide independent safety assurance for the new to service Kelvin Hughes ATM radar. The task was agreed and completed within a week fully meeting Project expectations and timeline enabling the ATM case to progress to the regulatory acceptance phase on time.

At short notice Osprey picked up and delivered, to the CAA, an extremely well researched piece of UAS analysis with a number of recommendations that we can take forward into delivery. The work is high risk and will inform political decision making in the UK and set a precedent across the world. The work they have delivered to date has met the agreed scope and quality. They have delivered to the timeframe and within the cost agreed without the need to direct or oversee the detail, which was extremely important especially when one of the reasons for the commercial arrangement with Osprey was due to internal resource constraints. The review and report they have completed will feed directly into UK Government policy as well as influence European and International policy direction for RPAS.

I found Osprey to be professional and responsive in meeting the demands of the Blackshark project. They were always on hand to address any issues and were pragmatic and practical in their advice. I would recommend Osprey to others needing similar safety advice and support.

The successful delivery of this significant ATC project would not have been possible were it not for the support of Osprey CSL and I’d like to thank them for their work.  Working closely with our project team, they helped to take an aspiration and turn it into a viable project that could be delivered within time and on budget. We have worked with Osprey before and I’m pleased with their technical knowledge and willingness to further enhance the technical excellence already present within our airport in order to form the most effective delivery team possible.

The team at Osprey were outstanding in their approach to our project and throughout the timeline the team were fully supportive with their communication and interaction.

The output from the team proved to me that they deliver high quality pieces of work.
