New agreement EASA and Georgia (GCAA)

At the beginning of this week, the country of Georgia (not US-state) signed a new working agreement with the EASA with the implementation of EU 2018/1139 regulations. Besides the implementation of same safety standards, are there any further advantages in this case? I’m not a jurist, so it would be great if someone can give some further information about the content of the agreement, or do we even have some Georgian pilots out here?

I flew once in Georgia with a C172 from Natakhtari Airfield near Tbilisi, with a local pilot of course, and was amazed by the beauty from above. I hope to do some more VFR-flying overthere in the near future. The country is slowly but surely developing their General Aviation, especially in the UL-scene. Since the country does have the ambition to become EU-member (in the far future), working together with EASA by implementing same safety standards seems to be a logical next step.

Interesting document. Pretty vague but it is probably all they can do until Georgia establishes a comprehensive regime for airframe and component certification – or adopts the EASA one wholly, for which there is probably nobody in the whole country who can even lift the weight of the documents, let alone read them
