EASA CS-25 is the European Union Aviation Safety Agency Certification Specifications for turbine powered Large Aeroplanes.
This certification procedure applies to large, turbine-powered aircraft, with max take-off weight of more than 5,700kg (CS 25.1).
It describes the minimum requirements that must be met for the certification of an aircraft in this class. After the compliance with all applicable requirements has been demonstrated, the EASA issues a type certificate. Manufacturers may apply for deviations or Equivalent Safety Findings from CS-25 where necessary.
Certification Specifications are "soft law", which is not legally binding. As such, the Certification Specifications are directly updated by the EASA, without the need for a vote of the European Parliament.
