Question for written answer E-001567/2025
to the Commission
Rule 144
Fabio De Masi (NI)
In its response to the question for written answer E-000314/2024[1], the Commission stated that unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP) events could be reported under the category ‘unknown airborne objects’. However, such a category does not exist within ECCAIRS 2, the aviation safety reporting system governed by Regulation (EU) No 376/2014, and existing classifications do not adequately capture the nature of UAP incidents.
Will the Commission commit to reviewing and updating EU aviation reporting systems, including ECCAIRS 2, to introduce a dedicated and standardised reporting category for UAP incidents, in order to ensure consistency, data integrity and the highest standards of flight safety across the EU Member States?
