What is a RA3?

* Third Country Regulated Agent
* An RA3 is a cargo-handling entity located in a third country that is validated and approved as such on the basis of an EU aviation security validation
* An RA3 must ensure security controls, including screening, are applied to all EU/EEA bound consignments and protected from interference
* Based on the prerequisites as stated in EU 185/2010

Oh well okay I thought it was concerning Cargo Flights.
I didn't heard any news like that here in Germany and I honestly don't believe that they would fly to SKT but not to LHE or KHI.

But if sth like that will happen in future it will be a good option for many pakistani people living here.
