| IMPORTANT NOTICE TO RVSM OPERATORS |
|
As of 1st July 2012 the EUR RMA shall no longer display information for operators of RVSM aircraft approved by any state outside of the European region. Operators should make all queries regarding RVSM approval, continued operations and height monitoring results to the RMA to which their state is accredited. A full list of RMA accredited states can be found in ICAO Doc. 9937 ‘Operating Procedures and Practices for Regional Monitoring Agencies’. The EUR RMA shall forward any queries from non-European operators to the appropriate RMA for action.
Operators and State Authorities shall continue to be able to view the RVSM approval status of all civilian aircraft approved within the European region. The data shall continue to include the date of the last valid height monitoring result. Aircraft details shall be classified by State to assist RVSM approval verification.
For further information please contact your designated RMA.

Note to Aircraft Operators and State Authorities responsible for issuing RVSM Approvals.
With effect from 01 January 2010 the EUR RMA will not provide height monitoring results directly to Operators.
Operators requiring RVSM height monitoring results should direct requests to the civil aviation authority responsible for licensing their operations.
The EUR RMA will not release monitoring results until they have received confirmation of the approval status of the aircraft and flight crew at the time of the monitoring flight.
A declaration of RVSM Approval for a Non-Approved aircraft is in contravention of the ICAO European Supplementary Procedures Doc. 7030 5th edition and shall be reported to the relevant authorities.
RVSM approval notifications will only be accepted from the civil aviation authority responsible for issuing such approvals or the Regional RMA responsible for the region in which the operator is based.
USC Form 1 will no longer be accepted as evidence that an Operator meets all requirements for height monitoring.
For further information please contact EurRMA.Support@eurocontrol.int

RVSM Implementation
A Reduced Vertical Separation Minimum (RVSM) of 300m (1000ft) separation between aircraft was introduced on 24 January 2002 by 41 European and North African countries.
RVSM provides six additional cruising levels between FL 290 and FL 410, resulting in substantial reductions in fuel costs and in-flight delays.
