The objective of Part 108 is to maintain a safe and secure aviation system through ensuring that the security requirements for air operators performing regular air transport passenger services with aircraft certificated for 10 or more passenger seats from and within New Zealand are consistent with ICAO Standards and Recommended Practices.
This Part requires such operators, as a part of the certification under Part 119 (holders of an airline air operator certificate), Part 129 (holders of a foreign air operator certificate), and holders of an Australian air operator certificate with ANZA privileges, to prepare and adopt an air operator security programme covering the specific security requirements set out in the rule.
