SimCheck training has teamed up with
to provide our VIP aircrew pilots with a hiring advantage...
Most airlines and corporate flight departments require a 10-year background check before hiring any pilot. All incoming SimCheck VIP aircrew training pilots must pass a 10-year FAA Background Check provided by National Air Transportation Association. Having passed this background check at the beginning of your training puts you a step ahead when competing against other airline or corporate candidates.
In keeping with FAA and TSA regulations, NATA conducts all necessary background checks, as well as the latest Criminal History Record Check (CHRC), including an FBI fingerprint check. The following background searches will be done:
This rule requires each airport and aircraft operator that has adopted a security program under 49 CFR Part 1542 (formerly 14 CFR Part 107) or 49 CFR Part 1544 (formerly 14 CFR Part 108) to conduct fingerprint-based for individuals employed by those companies or those requiring access to Secured Identification Display Areas of airports. The rule ensures that individuals needing access to Secured Identification Display Areas or those that perform safety-sensitive functions (e.g. flight crewmembers or crewmembers operating aircraft that have a maximum take-off weight of 12,500 pounds), do not have disqualifying criminal offenses. NATA-CS provides the required checks for airports and operators singularly, or as part of a high-value, low-cost integrated security program.

New regulations governing employee drug testing are being drafted every day. Aviation companies must have their own comprehensive drug programs. NATA-CS provides effective, reliable third-party programs to keep you in compliance. Moving forward, more employees will be required to undergo drug testing more frequently. What’s more, all will require a minimum two-year check to prove they have not failed a drug or alcohol test. View the Regulations for Conducting Antidrug and Alcohol Misuse Prevention Programs for Safety-Sensitive Employees in the Aviation Industry.
Permanent Bar Verification
According to Reference 14 CFR Part 121 Appendices I and J, FAA-regulated employees who work in safety-sensitive functions must undergo historical test results verifications pertaining to drug and alcohol records back to September 19, 1994.
Pilot Record Improvement Act of 1996 (PRIA)
NATA-CS also help you to comply with “the statute (which) requires air carriers, prior to hiring an individual as a pilot, to request and receive: from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), certain records pertaining to the individual concerning pilot certificates, associated rating, medical certificates, and summaries of legal enforcement actions; from other air carriers or other persons for whom the individual may have been employed in the past five-year period, certain records pertaining to training, competency, disciplinary actions, and/or terminations or other causes for separation concerning the prior employer; and from the National Driver Register pertinent records concerning the motor vehicle driving record of the individual being considered for hiring". (AC No: 120-68A) Flight Standards Service Pilot Records Improvement Act.
Report to Congress: Improving General Aviation Security (Pursuant to Section 132(b) of the Aviation and Transportation Security Act):
These regulations apply to general aviation (all aviation other than scheduled commercial flights and military aviation). The report provides a summary of potential vulnerabilities, an identification of the range and basic types of measures that may be taken to increase security, as well as outlines a toolbox of potential countermeasures.

Secure ID-Biometric SkyGuard
Soon, virtually every company in aviation will be required to have a badging identification system. The SkyGuard Badging System developed by NATA-CS tightens security by matching personal information on an employee with a fingerprint and photo. SkyGuard features smart chip technology for ample storage of supplemental identification and verification information.
