Joint Aviation Authorities

The Joint Aviation Authorities (JAA) was an associated body of the European Civil Aviation Conference[citation needed] representing the civil aviation regulatory authorities of a number of European States who had agreed to co-operate in developing and implementing common safety regulatory standards and procedures. It was not a regulatory body, regulation being achieved through the member authorities. It was in existence from 1970 until disbanded in 2009. Its headquarters were located in Hoofddorp near Schiphol airport in Netherlands.[citation needed]

JAA issued the Joint Aviation Requirements (JAR), intended to establish minimum requirements for air safety.

In implementing the so-called FUJA Report, JAA entered into a new phase as of 1 January 2007. In this new phase the former "JAA" became "JAA T" (Transition).[citation needed] JAA T consisted of a Liaison Office (JAA LO) and a Training Office (JAA TO). The offices of JAA LO were located in the premises of the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) in Cologne, Germany.[citation needed]
