I see some differencies but not too much. Unfortunately!
Especially i wonder why EASA takes also 1:1 some of the problems and unclear descriptions in some points in OPS 3?

Again we found as example the differencies in "ambulance" and "HEMS" flights, the landing site diameter according to "D" helicopter dimensions and some other old nonsense. The same old discussions about night HEMS single pilot with HCM... Ohh, i forgot they invented now the "Technical crew member"and killed the HCM! It sucks!!!

On some points EASA is behind the last OPS-3 Amendments. We struggle since years with operators and CAAs to come in line with OPS 3 and now the crazy EASA invents a new departmentalism in his draft.

I don't understand it

May be this posting is too much general, but i don't feel able to discuss the whole details because it's senseless. They do what ever they want. And they have no capable stuff. They try to draw all kind of bloody officials from all countries, from aviation or not but sure not from helicopters to EASA because EASA pays much more than the old national CAAs. It's a "Europe pay" Just as said "desk jockeys". I agree fully. This stuff will do us much headache in future.
