Philippine Air Force C-295 Skids Off Runway at Basco Airport Amid Relief Mission

On November 1, 2024, a Philippine Air Force (PAF) Airbus C-295 transport aircraft delivering humanitarian supplies skidded off the runway at Basco Airport, Batanes, following a nose landing gear failure that caused the plane to veer off during landing. All crew members were reported safe, and an investigation has been initiated by the PAF and the Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines (CAAP) to identify the cause. Basco Airport, which had just reopened after Super Typhoon Leon, will remain closed to fixed-wing operations through November 3, while PAF and local authorities coordinate to continue relief operations in the affected region.

SARPcheck global aviation safety audit: A wet lease, codeshare, ACMI Booster

SARPcheck is a new global aviation safety audit that assesses airline compliance with select ICAO Standards and Recommended Practices (SARPs) across defined ICAO Annexes. The primary aim of this audit is to enhance global flight safety while providing an affordable and accessible tool to facilitate ACMI, wet lease, and codeshare operations. The ICAO Annexes and SARPs that SARPcheck focuses on are specifically those outlined by regulatory and industry standards, including FAA requirements for overseeing foreign air carriers and the TCO approval elements of EASA.

SARPcheck is governed by a London-based not-for-profit organization, the Safety Audit Review Partnership (SARP Ltd.), which accredits Safety Quality Organizations (SQOs) such as AEROTHRIVE to conduct these audits globally. Detailed information about the program, including the SARPcheck Program Manual (SCPM), informative brochures, and the latest updates, is available on our website at https://aerothrive.com/audits/sarpcheck-audits/.
