According to information, the UK government funded PCAA with computer-based inspection tools and training programmes for airline security screens.

Mr Mohammad Abdul Gaffar, First Secretary Aviation, UK High Commission Islamabad, handed over the equipment to Air Cdre Retd Shahid Qadir, Director Aviation Security, PCAA, and Airport Manager Mr Aftab Gillani in front of aviation sector representatives. Mr Gaffar reaffirmed the UK DfT’s commitment to assisting PCAA in its efforts to improve aviation security measures in Pakistan. He also praised the PCAA on its great achievement in the recently completed ICAO full-scale audit.

The provision of the computer-based Threat Image Recognition training curriculum and its hardware to PCAA means that it will be able to meet another ICAO requirement of checking screeners in the aviation industry, including airlines, ASF, cargo, and so on, using a computer-based system.

This cooperation initiative demonstrates both organisations’ commitment to improving aviation security regulatory capacities by aligning them with the standards established by the International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO). The training programme not only represents a step forward in boosting aviation security measures, but it also demonstrates the UK and Pakistan’s long-standing relationship in supporting safe and secure air travel.

The Department for Transport – UK has a history of assisting the PCAA in a variety of ways, including equipment distribution, training initiatives, and knowledge sharing in aviation security domains.

This latest donation strengthens the two bodies’ friendly relationship, reinforcing the UK’s commitment to continue assisting the PCAA in its efforts to maintain the highest standards of aviation security.

The computers donated would be used to run the computer-based training course, which would improve the screening procedure. The CBT “Threat Image Recognition Training” from the Redline firm, which also works for the UK DfT, will be used by the Directorate of Aviation Security across the whole aviation industry in Pakistan.

As the aviation landscape changes, communication and collaboration among international regulatory organisations are critical. The Department for Transport – UK is still dedicated to encouraging mutual assistance and exchanging best practices to enhance the safety and security of global air transport networks. The PCAA Aviation Security system has already rewarded the government by passing the recently completed first full-scale audit of Pakistan’s aviation security system. PCAA has reached another milestone with the acquisition of this system with UK DfT support.
