Security...The Opportunity To Act

America is the land of opportunity. Right now there are coalition forces giving us the opportunity to plan and act against terrorism, rather than react. “We absolutely have to make use of the opportunity that our soldiers, sailors, airmen, and marines are giving us,” exclaims Dave Hook, President of Planehook Aviation Services, LLC! Focused on the security needs of general aviation, Planehook provides airfield security plans and low-cost security solutions to a largely overlooked segment of the aviation community.

Many men and women from countries around the world are in pursuit of Osama bin Laden and al Qaeda. The hunt is on to neutralize organizations that support an agenda of terror. Eventually though, economics will bring the soldiers home. “We need to make sure that our domestic security is tight while we have the liberty to plan and act, rather than being forced to react from domestic attack,” furthers Hook. Proactive anti-terrorist and anti-criminal planning allows effective, low-cost solutions to be implemented. Waiting until the last minute normally results in costly, excessive measures that may not be financially sustainable for the long term.

“Our approach is anti-terrorism, not counter-terrorism. We help general aviation airports establish practices and plans which discourage terrorists or criminals from using that airport. At the other end of the spectrum, counter-terrorism, is the use of specially trained law enforcement officers and military forces,” explains Planehook’s senior officer. Making use of security guidelines published by the Transportation Security Administration and industry best practices, Planehook ensures clients have the means to discourage criminals and terrorists from preying upon their airfield.

Dedicated to the needs of general aviation, Planehook Aviation Services, LLC began providing its unique version of security in December 2004. The company motto, “Securing aviation one airport at a time,” underscores their approach.
