CAA Grant Eligibility for 8.33kHz Upgrade

By January 2018, all aircraft that are required to carry a radio must have 8.33 kHz-compatible equipment fitted and operational, and from 1st January 25kHz radios cannot be used for general communication.

The CAA has secured €4.3 million of funding from the European Union’s Connecting Europe Facility (CEF) to encourage the early transition of the UK GA fleet to 8.33 kHz-capable equipment.
