UK Security and the 10 tonne rule.

[NJTCF]

Need some help.

Please could someone advise if Security screening is required on a flight over 10 tonne which is operated on a AOC. But the aircraft is Privately owned and only staff off the company are flying on the aircraft? The aircraft is above 10 tonnes. Is there any where on the DFT webbsite that mentions this. The flight is not a charter but is being operated commercially on a flight number.

We all have an opinion of this in our office and we all think diffrently. Just wanted something in black and white if it is out there.

Thanks for any help.
