The Middle East Flight Procedure Programme (MID FPP) continues to support States across the MID Region in advancing Flight Procedure Design (FPD) capabilities.

Following a request from the Libyan Civil Aviation Authority (LYCAA), the MID FPP developed a Statement of Work to support the certification of a third-party Instrument Flight Procedure (IFP) design service provider for Libyaโ€™s ongoing FPD projects.

Meanwhile, the ICAO MID Regional Office held discussions with the Egyptian Civil Aviation Authority (ECAA) on 21 July 2026 regarding the Host State Model for the MID FPP, following the call for States to express interest in hosting the Programme.

Hosting the MID FPP would reinforce regional cooperation and contribute to advancing FPD, PBN implementation and air navigation capacity-building across the Middle East.
