IFALPA Briefing Leaflet: Sample Guidelines for Member Associations in the Event of a Pilot Being Arrested in a Foreign Country

While a pilot may assume it could never happen to them, arrest by the police of a foreign State is always a possibility. It is important to be prepared and aware of what actions can be taken and how to instruct your members beforehand on how to react in these circumstances (i.e. instructions card). This Briefing Leaflet provides guidelines for both the Member Association and the individual pilot on how to deal with a pilot arrest.
