Aviation Security: the role of IFALPA and its Member Associations

Dec 22, 2021

Abstract

Any attack on civil aviation constitutes a wilful hazard to the safety and security of passengers and crew. The prevention of such attacks is one of the highest priorities of the Federation. Aviation security should be a multi-layered approach with an emphasis based on ground security. In-flight security should not be considered a substitute for comprehensive and effective ground security measures.
