Cutter Aviation Phoenix Sky Harbour now DASSP approved
Company only the second Arizona FBO to receive the DASSP approval from the TSA
Cutter Aviation at Phoenix Sky
Harbor Int’l
Airport has been granted
approval as an FBO gateway for approved general and corporate aviation flights
to Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport by the Transportation
Security Administration (TSA) as part of the DASSP (DCA Access Standard
Security Program) initiative to restore General Aviation access to the
airport. Cutter
Aviation Phoenix
Sky Harbor
is only the second Arizona FBO and is one of less than 80 facilities nationwide
to receive the DASSP approval from the TSA. Cutter Aviation
Phoenix Sky
Harbor was granted TSA
approval on 30 August 2011 and is available for DCA Gateway operations
effective immediately.
“We are pleased to now offer our customers
the flexibility of travel directly to Washington through Reagan
National Airport,
which has been heavily restricted since September 11, 2001.” said Richard Campbell,
operations manager for Cutter
Aviation Phoenix
Sky Harbor.
“With the number of government contractors in the greater Phoenix area, this added convenience will aid
in the growth of business within our area.”
Approved DASSP operators may now use Cutter Aviation
Phoenix Sky
Harbor as their departure
point into DCA. Access to DCA is preferred for many corporate aircraft
operators as its central location to Washington is far more convenient than
operations into Dulles International Airport or Manassas Regional Airport, both
over 25 miles to the West.
