The European Business Aviation Association (EBAA) has established a new airports, handling and ground operations committee (AHGOC). The committee has set itself the following four core goals: support the sustainable growth of business aviation and the interests of EBAA members by promoting fair, equitable access to airports; ensure safety and standards of best practices at airports and handling companies; promote environmentally friendly operations to the benefit of local communities; and fight for fair competition to the benefit of all stakeholders to meet the needs of aircraft operators, their passengers and crews.
