ED Decision 2021/003/R

GENERAL

Driving authorisations are meant to be issued only to persons whose functions and tasks require the driving of a vehicle on the movement area or other operational areas of the aerodrome.

Driving authorisations cover all types of activities that involve driving in these areas, including but not limited to aerodrome operations and maintenance, groundhandling, security, aircraft maintenance, etc. The identity of the organisation with which a driver is associated (e.g. private entity, State entity) is not considered relevant.

The number of persons authorised to drive on the manoeuvring area, and particularly on runways, needs to be limited to the minimum required in order to minimise the risk of runway incursions and should be reviewed periodically.
