delivery and shopping vehicles before each trip. When grocery
shopping for an aircraft, they are using food safe wipes on all
packaging purchased from the store before loading it into the
vans. "Just like so many other private aviation caterers, we
already held ourselves to very strict food safety guidelines such
as providing professionally cleaned uniforms to each employee
to wear in the kitchen; not allowing any sick employee to attend
work; washing hands thoroughly and regularly, wearing gloves,
and wearing hats or hair nets. We decided to add a few extra
safety precautions to ensure that everything we're bringing in
and sending out is completely safe," says Eric Posey.
According to Rosanna Calambichis of Big Chef Catering (a
USDA, FDA, HACCP inspected catering facility) serving Miami
to Palm Beach, Florida, "Catering in today's worst-case scenario
requires even more diligence to protect everyone coming
in contact with the food." Big Chef is also sanitizing with

Quaternary Ammonium Sanitizer (Quats) between each delivery
or use of the company vehicles. She recommends,"Your
packaging should be sealed and received unopened. You
should also be discarding all one-time-use containers in
appropriate trash containers which are emptied regularly. Don't
be tempted to wash and save them for another use!"
Catering Safety Management Systems
Now is the time to enhance your set of best practices for
catering. Just as your flight operations have SMSs in place
for the operation of your fleet, you should have an SMS for
the handling of food as your missions take you around the
world. Your SMS must include the flow of food from the
CSRs, dispatchers and ground crew, both at FBOs and flight
departments, to the entire cabin crew. It should include the

1 ) B. For planning and filing, the minimums for selecting the alternate
are as follows: at the time you'd expect to arrive the weather must be
forecasting 800' ceilings and 2 SM visibility for any non-precision
approaches at your alternate, and 600' ceilings and 2 SM visibility for
any precision approaches available. All that being said, since you are
in-flight, you are only required to meet the minimum criteria listed for
the specific approach you choose to fly.

3 ) C. Before you invest gobs of cash in a handling service look up Ops.
Group, a website and blog developed in 2017 by operators when the
ASTN network showed many, many informational cracks and spurious
information blurring useful information. The blog and website (and
associated app) are sources of worldwide aviation regulators' most
up to date briefings, as well as real-world operator information that is
rapidly updated through crowdsourcing information from the groups
7,000 members worldwide.

IFR ALTERNATE AIRPORT MINIMUMS

Standard alternate minimums for non-precision approaches and approaches with vertical guidance [NDB,
VOR, LOC, TACAN, LDA, SDF, VOR/DME, ASR, RNAV (GPS) or RNAV (RNP)] are 800-2. Standard
alternate minimums for precision approaches (ILS, PAR, or GLS) are 600-2. Airports within this
geographical area that require alternate minimums other than standard or alternate minimums with
restrictions are listed below. NA - means alternate minimums are not authorized due to unmonitored
facility, absence of weather reporting service, or lack of adequate navigation coverage. Civil pilots see
FAR 91. IFR Alternate Minimums: Ceiling and Visibility Minimums not applicable to USA/USN/USAF.
Pilots must review the IFR Alternate Minimums Notes for alternate airfield suitability.

2 ) D. AC 91-70B addresses oceanic operations minimum requirements
for pilots, and section 3.2.2 directly addresses training for GA pilots.
The sum total of the section is that the FAA must issue an LOA (letter
of authorization) for pilots to perform oceanic operations, and there are
several different methods to prove to the FAA that the pilot requesting
the LOA is qualified.
