Don't expect "EU-OPS" or "EU-FCL" to be adopted (i.e. to become EU law) before March 2007. If not early 2008. The JAA HQ in the Netherlands close on the 31st of December 2006.
Negociations between the EASA and the industry to review/simplify Mx requirements for owners of non-complex aircraft doing non-commercial ops (i.e. G/A) are already on the menu. If I recall correctly they should start quite soon, but don't quote me on that.
What counts is that the EASA wants to hear from the industry. They want as much feedback as possible from us. Compared to the JAA that's a significant progress.
