General Crew/Passengers Health Recommendations:
We believe that aircraft and aerodrome operators should collaborate as much as possible. In
particular then with the public health authorities regards tracing the passengers, cleaning the
aircraft regularly and maintaining the highest hygiene level onboard. Aircrafts and aerodrome
operators should be proactive and collaborate with the public health institutions prior any
appearance of a suspected case within the particular company frame.

Pink Aviation Services crew members are recommended and encouraged to identify jumpers
or any other persons entering the aircraft, who are meeting the following criteria: having signs
and symptoms indicative of acute respiratory infections, and having been in the affected areas
or in contact with people potentially infected with SARS-CoV-2 or with people arriving from
an affected area within 14 days prior to onset of symptoms. In the event of such a
symptomatic passenger being identified, the crew should be encouraged to get in touch with
the ground responsible personnel and have the symptomatic passenger tested.

Crew health recommendations

-As stated in Operationals Manual Pink Aviation Services Luftverkehrsunternehmen
GmbH&CoKG, Crew members unable to perform their duty due to illness or bad health
condition should report this to the Flight Operation Manager.

 No person shall act as a flight crew member if he knows or suspects that he is suffering from,
or is likely to suffer from such fatigue or feel unfit as this may endanger the safe conduct of
the flight.
Therefore in the light of the SARS-CoV-2 the pilot shall get tested every second day,
whenever in doubt in order to adopt the right arrangements. Furthermore acceptance of testing
of the aircrew is mandatory, whenever the test is requested and presented by the customer.
