To support the Aerodrome Operator’s compliance monitoring programme, a number of Question Banks have been prepared.
In preparation for a CAA audit, you will be notified of the oversight focus areas and the question banks that will need to be completed and returned.
Instructions for completing and returning the question banks can be found on page 1 of each question bank document.
IMPORTANT: The Question Banks listed below are currently being reviewed and updated to ensure continuous improvement, and alignment with Regulation (EU) 139/2014 as retained (and amended in UK domestic law) under the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018.
When the review is complete, they will be available to download here. In the meantime, relevant Question Banks will be sent to aerodrome operators as attachments to the audit notification email. Copies of specific question banks can also be requested from the Aerodrome Inspector team.
