I would actually like, now that I think of it, a reason that I had to have a 10 year background check (addresses, criminal records etc), when I had one BY THE SAME PEOPLE FOR THE SAME REASON 2 years ago? Surely the renewal form should just be addresses over the past 24 months, and convictions in that time, and an issue fee? Or perhaps, sometime since my last asic, I comitted a crime before I was issued my last asic...

Like your smilies Cap'n Arrr

As a mater of interest - Does anybody know what an ASIC type background check have shown for the 911 bad boy pilots ?

Would they have received an ASIC ?



Edit - no answer to this question - so much for the ASIC system.

All those ASICs do is make the familys of the ASIC holders targets.

Are pilots still allowed to fly without an ASIC?

Yes. Pilots only need to have submitted an application for an AVID or an ASIC to operate an aircraft. The application will be processed and appropriate background checks undertaken prior to the AVID or ASIC being issued to an eligible pilot.

Can an airport refuse to let a pilot walk into the airport to go to their plane if they don't have an ASIC?

Responsibility for access to the secure areas of a security controlled airport has not changed. It remains at the discretion of the airport operator.

Delta T,
Legislation overrides a web information page.
Refer to section 3.2 of the Aviation Transport Secuirty Regulations.

Those paragraphs off the FAQ of the CASA website, are poorly worded and in conflict with the requirements of the security regs. Dept of Infrastructure is looking at that very issue now. CASA's advice is based on a pilot not necessarily going to a security controlled airport.

In relation to your second point. Nowhere in that section does it give the aerodrome operator "discretion" to vary the requirement for a person to display an ASIC or a VIC and accompanied by and ASIC holder whilst airsde.

The one variation to this that I only became aware of recently is that a security controlled airport that does not have screened services (jet RPT) only requires display of an ASIC during the traffice periods. That is 2 hours before scheduled arrival until 2 hours after departure. Works great for places like Albany, Wiluna, Esperance and Geraldon. For the time being anyway.
