Statement of Commitment to Work Together, Stay Apart

Since launching our Work Together, Stay Apart campaign in June 2023 we’ve been encouraged by a response that shows there are many in the sector clearly committed to increasing safety at unattended aerodromes. To acknowledge that commitment we’ve established a statement of commitment for individuals and organisations across the general aviation sector to sign.

LogoStatement of Commitment

All participants who operate at and from unattended aerodromes, and those who influence those operations, have a role to play in working together and staying apart to reduce the likelihood of mid-air accidents and the number of near-collision and air proximity events within the circuit.

Signatories of this document state their commitment to:

  • adopt the recommendations of the Work Together, Stay Apart safety campaign by modelling best practice when operating from unattended aerodromes
  • raise awareness of the safety campaign, and its resulting resources and events
  • participate in opportunities to learn and engage with others in the aviation sector.

In addition, signatory organisations commit to:

  • publicly endorsing the Work Together, Stay Apart safety campaign.
  • enabling their members, employees, students, trainees and volunteers to participate in opportunities arising from the safety campaign
  • providing training opportunities for their people.
