Ofcom has today proposed to improve the way we deliver licences that allow the use of radio equipment on aircraft.

We are proposing to make licensing documentation more meaningful, accessible, and easier to understand. We also want to streamline our processes so that licences are easier to manage in the future.

The changes would update the structure and content of current licences to bring them into line with the style and standard terms and conditions applicable to other licence types.

It would also simplify the information we hold on aircraft and radio equipment in our licensing database.

We are not proposing to change the substance of the terms and conditions or licence fees.

The deadline for providing comments on the proposed changes is 20 February 2022
