Aviation safety standard gets ICAO recognition

International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) has certified Bangladesh achieving 77.46 per cent effective implementation of aviation safety standard compliance, reports UNB.

“It’s an extraordinary achievement for Bangladesh and for the first time in Bangladesh history,” said an official at Bangladesh Civil Aviation Authority yesterday.

The ICAO conducted an audit on September 19-26 and came up with the results in terms of safety standard. A six-member ICAO team conducted the audit on Bangladesh.

In 2012, Bangladesh achieved 50.8 per cent effective implementation status of safety standard compliance through ICAO Coordination Validation Mission (ICVM).

The auditors looked into eight specific issues like primary aviation legislation, organization, personal licensing, operations, airworthiness, aircraft accident investigation and air navigation services, said the official.
