Update to CAP790

Overview

The CAA is seeking stakeholder feedback on proposed updates to CAP 790, which establishes the requirements for an Airside Driving Permit (ADP) Scheme and provides guidance on the management, training, assessment and competence standards for airside drivers.

The review aims to strengthen safety assurance across aerodromes by updating provisions relating to medical standards, driving competence, radiotelephony requirements, operational responsibilities and revalidation processes.

Input is invited from aerodrome operators, ground handling organisations, training providers and other airside stakeholders to ensure the revised ADP framework remains effective, proportionate and aligned with current operational practices and safety expectation.
