The European Business Aviation Association (EBAA) has drawn up a list of security recommendations in a bid to ensure uniform standards at the continent’s FBOs. The recommendations are expected to be included in the association’s new code of practice for business aircraft ground handling when it is published later this year.

Significantly, the new recommendations include full identity and baggage screening of all departing passengers. This does not appear to be current standard operating procedure at most European FBOs, nor is it yet a legal requirement of many European governments.
