Why Retain the Services of a Member of the British Association of Aviation Consultants?

The reasons are many and complex - but compelling! First, the BAAC sets out key qualifications for membership that are fully verified prior to electing a consultant to membership of the Association. Secondly, not all aviation associations or consultants’ registers require their consultants to agree to be bound by professional standards and a code of conduct. The strength of the BAAC is that its members adopt these standards and can properly be referred to as ‘Registered Aviation Consultants’ thereby providing clients with an assurance as to their qualifications and experience.

Basically the consultant is paid to provide qualified and impartial advice on subjects of which the client has no specialist knowledge or has limited expertise or resources.

An outside specialist:

• Can give a second opinion on issues important to the client's interests and provide insight and clarity on those areas in which expertise may be lacking;
• Makes it unnecessary to recruit extra staff (of perhaps unproven quality and ability) just for a special assignment or project;
• Provides reports which are not influenced by inter-departmental pressures, are available rapidly and directly to the board of directors;
• Will bring in fresh ideas, stimulate new thinking and generally act as a catalyst.

Our Members cover virtually every field of aviation from flight operations to engineering and from aircraft leasing to financial planning.
