	~~Taking into account that the~~ second generation of the European Geostationary Navigation Overlay Service, EGNOS V3, which is planned to enter service in 2025, will take advantage of in-operation Galileo signals, as well as new frequencies from an improved class of GPS satellites. Use of the L5 second frequency will improve service robustness against errors and propagation delays caused by the ionosphere. This new EGNOS version implies benefits for aircraft. EGNOS V3 will be able to guide the latest avionics accurately and safely down to Category 1 (VLA = 10m), while also providing legacy users equipped with current avionics a more robust version of the current LPV200, or 35 m vertical limit for vertical guidance service. <ref name="ESA NT">[https://www.esa.int/Applications/Navigation/New_technology_version_of_EGNOS_will_harness_Galileo_for_aviation New technology version of EGNOS will harness Galileo for aviation, ESA website] </ref>		The second generation of the European Geostationary Navigation Overlay Service, EGNOS V3, which is planned to enter service in 2025, will take advantage of in-operation Galileo signals, as well as new frequencies from an improved class of GPS satellites.
