As of today, EASA has not issued any Certification Specification for

gyroplanes.

EASA recommends to check first the Maximum Take-off Weight of the


gyroplane. If it is below 560 kg, national regulation shall be used: indeed,
in accordance with the Regulation (EC) 216/2008, Annex I, gyroplanes
with a maximum Take-off Weight below 560 kg belong to the ultralight
class.

So far there is no gyroplane type certified by EASA. In case of an


application for a type certificate of such a product, the EASA would
address the certification basis through e.g. Special Conditions in
accordance with Part 21.

Certifications for Gyroplanes in Europe - Annex II to EASA Regulation (EC) No 216/2008

All gyroplanes in Europe do not fall under the responsibility of the EASA for
Airworthiness purposes but they fall under the direct governance of a country's
(member states) Civil Aviation Authority.

Celier Aviation has opted to benchmark its certification process via the German Civil
Aviation Authorities through the powers vested in the Deutscher Aero Club E.V.

Other countries in Europe gladly accept the German standards and adopt them as their
own.

All certification process for the Xenon 4 has been processed through our company
Celier Aviation Germany GmbH.

Gyroplanes in Europe are considered to be Annex II Aircraft and for this they fly legally
under what is known as a “Permit to Fly”.

Below find an extract from the European Law that is in force. PDF File with entire Law is
also attached.

We proudly declare that we are the only 560 kg MTOW side-by-side Gyroplane to fly
legally in Europe.
