Ross Aviation Ramps Up Coronavirus Precautions
The FBO chain has rolled out aircraft disinfection services at some locations.
Ross Aviation has added aircraft cabin disinfecting services at some of its FBOs, in response to the current COVID-19 pandemic. While the Denver-based company has ramped up its infectious-disease safety precautions chain-wide, it has retained aircraft-cleaning specialist David Allen Certified to advise and train its staffers on the disinfection process, starting at its facilities in Scottsdale, Arizona; and Sarasota, Florida.
A typical business aircraft will take one to two hours to disinfect, depending on size, and it can return to service immediately after the process, the components of which are approved by airplane manufacturers. The treatment, which follows the National Business Aviation Association's guidelines for disinfection using EPA-registered products, sanitizes the aircraft and will protect it for between seven and 30 days, depending on the amount of wear on the areas.
David Allen Certified has rapid-response teams available to arrive within eight to 24 hours to clean and disinfect grounded aircraft at other airports around the U.S.
