Perth Airport SOP - Hi Vis
The Perth Airport SOP that is used by the CAA as part of the audit process for the ACS Operations team has recently been revised and updated.
As part of our membership renewal process, we all tick the box to confirm that we agree to follow and be bound by the SAC Members Handbook ( Members Section) and the Perth Airport SOP ( Pilot Information ).
The wording in section 1.14 of the Airport SOP has been updated and reads as follows:
1.14 High Visibility Apparel
All persons who require access to the apron area are recommended to (aircrew or airport staff) wear high visibility clothing or (passengers and others) be escorted by an individual wearing high visibility clothing. High visibility clothing must be worn at high and during periods of low visibility.
We remind members, therefore, that it is recommended that High Vis be worn when airside and that during the hours of darkness and in low visibility (fog / mist) that this requirement becomes mandatory.
