MarieElaine Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 I presume this is an organisation that monitors all international airports (?). I'll have to go online and check other airport ratings. This is very sad indeed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Admin_01 Posted December 12, 2016 Administrators Share Posted December 12, 2016 ICAO -- the International Civil Aviation Irganization -- is "the official" organization that is responsible for these kinds of aviation management responsibilities. It has worldwide authority, and is chartered by the U.N. http://www.icao.int/Pages/default.aspx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keith Woolford Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 My level of concern went up when it was reported in the press recently (possibly in error) that a piece of antiquated equipment which was stolen from the Enrique Malek Airport in David was vital to air safety.
