End State Solutions LLC (ESS) and Avtrain Limited today announced a strategic collaboration aimed at facilitating seamless certification and approval processes for emerging aerospace technology companies operating across the Atlantic. This collaboration will bridge the regulatory landscapes of the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), enabling clients to navigate complex regulations and accelerate their journey to revenue operations in both jurisdictions, say the two companies in a joint press release.
“The collaboration formalizes a mutual commitment to support clients in expanding their operations globally without facing the challenges of conflicting regulatory guidance,” say the companies. “By combining their distinct regional expertise, ESS and Avtrain will offer a unified approach for companies seeking certifications, authorisations and waivers in both the U.S. and European markets.”
“Our mission at End State Solutions is to certify autonomy in aerospace by navigating complex regulations to get emerging technology companies to revenue operations, and we pride ourselves on bridging the cultural gap between innovators and regulators in the U.S.,” said Charlton M. Evans, Founder and CEO of End State Solutions. “This collaboration with Avtrain is a natural extension of our commitment to our clients. It ensures that companies looking to operate globally will benefit from a cohesive strategy, avoiding the pitfalls of disparate regulatory interpretations and accelerating their market entry in both the U.S. and Europe. We are truly becoming a bridge to revenue operations for emerging aerospace on a transatlantic scale.”
Julie Garland, CEO of Avtrain, added, “Avtrain’s strength lies in our broad, deep understanding of the European regulatory environment, particularly the application of SORA 2.5 globally, coupled with our interpersonal relationships with EASA and National Aviation Authorities across Europe. Our mission has been to actively promote industry growth and drive regulatory proportionality and simplification through extensive participation at JARUS, JEDA and EASA Stakeholder Advisory Body Drone Community which gives us a unique insight into the evolving regulatory environment. This collaboration with End State Solutions means that operators can move from one jurisdiction to another, expanding their operations across the pond with a single, harmonized approach. It provides a significant advantage and strength as the industry continues to evolve and move globally.”
This strategic alliance means that emerging aerospace technology companies – particularly those in drones, Advanced Air Mobility (AAM), eVTOL, and High-Altitude Platform Systems (HAPS) sectors – will gain access to comprehensive regulatory guidance and support for both FAA and EASA requirements.
