ClimbingFast.eu has launched as the global expansion of NBAA’s advocacy campaign, led in Europe by EBAA. The platform highlights our manifesto and Oxford Economics data showing business aviation’s €120 billion FDI impact and 400,000 jobs. It provides fact-based narratives on sustainability, connectivity and humanitarian contributions.

Using EUROCONTROL data, we have compiled the European Business aviation traffic figures for July 2025.

The EU–U.S. trade agreement imposes a 15% tariff on most goods — but aviation doesn't fall under that. Aircraft, aircraft engines, and parts remain zero-tariff, ensuring transatlantic supply chains. This outcome follows intense lobbying by industry leaders on both sides of the Atlantic. One major win for business aviation — it ensures stability, access, and growth.

19th June 2025, the Swiss Parliament debated two motions aimed at reducing business aviation activity in Switzerland. Following the Federal Council’s recommendation and based on factual evidence, Parliament rejected both motions. This is excellent news for the sector, its users, and associated jobs.

This spring, EASA launched an impact assessment survey as part of the rulemaking task RMT.0392, as outlined in the EBAA industry update from 10/02/2023 (link to https://www.ebaa.org/industry-updates/european-plan-for-aviation-safety-2023-2025-epas-impact-on-business-aviation/). The aim is to review the existing Complex Motor-Powered Aircraft (CMPA) criteria under Regulation (EU) 965/2012 and explore more relevant, balanced alternatives. The survey closed on 27 June 2025. We hope many of you had the chance to share your views.
