Nigerian business aviation service provider EAN Aviation is the first African Safety 1st qualified location to be listed on the National Air Transportation Association’s (NATA) FBO map. The Lagos-based company, one of the few full-service, purpose-built FBOs in Africa, was recognized for consistently maintaining its employees' training status.
To achieve this qualification, it undergoes at least eight internal audits and four external audits each year. The location currently has 17 active students registered under the NATA training programs, and since its launch in 2011, has participated in the association’s industry standard training regimens.
The FBO provides a VIP lounge, a crew lounge and flight-planning office, as well as conference facilities and a hangar. Passengers and crew can complete customs and immigration procedures in the same building at any hour. The facility also has a restaurant that can provide in-flight catering.
NATA introduced its global map in April to educate aircraft operators about which FBOs and ground handlers are Safety 1st qualified and/or registered under the International Business Aviation Council’s International Standard for Business Aviation Handling (IS-BAH).
EAN Aviation is also anticipating certification under IS-BAH in the next six months. It would thus become the second African location to achieve this distinction.
