You will require this approval if you operate a security controlled airport or prescribed air service.
Prescribed air services include aircrafts that:
- undertake regular public transport operations
- use a jet
- have a certified maximum take-off weight over 5700 kilograms.
A Transport Security Program improves aviation security by addressing areas such as technology and equipment and response procedures. It also enables airside and landside zoning changes during special events. Transport Security Programs must be approved before coming into force.
