LEBANON, N.J., Jan. 8, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ In order to keep the nation s capital safe and operational, the TSA on July 15th, 2005, established security procedures that allowed GA business operations access to DCA. These procedures included a requirement that every GA business flight operating into or out of DCA have onboard an armed security officer ( ASO ) specially trained and authorized by TSA. ASOs maintain on-board flight-deck security to ensure the aircrafts continued flight capabilities, along with passenger and pilot safety.
The role of the ASO in business general aviation is no longer limited to flights going in and out of DCA; the role has since expanded to virtually any flights with C-suite and/or high net worth individuals aboard. The protection of corporate and other assets while in transit is vital as this is where most vulnerabilities are seen in the threat matrix.
