Seletar Airport is an airport located in the Northeastern part of Singapore. While Changi Airport is its largest and main civilian airport, Seletar Airport primarily caters to general aviation, private jets, business aviation, and regional turboprop flights.

Seletar Airport has become the gateway for many private and corporate aircraft. When a rich businessman or a celebrity wants to avoid public attention or for greater security, they might choose to fly a private jet into this airport instead. To service these high profile clients, the airport offered private hangars, VIP lounges, secure parking areas, and more bespoke services.

cSeletar does have some commercial flights as well, primarily turboprop aircraft that fly to other smaller regional airports. These would use a small terminal towards the eastern side of the airport. Although not as busy as Changi, many members of the public, usually passengers and their families, would come to the terminal using private or public transport.

The airport also houses many private and corporate aircraft, in contrast to Changi Airport that caters mainly to larger airlines. They offer the services such as refuelling, aircraft maintenance, engine repairs, airframe service, catering, and others needed to operate private or chartered flights. As such, it houses several famous aviation companies in an aerospace park located next door, such as Rolls Royce and Airbus, which operates facilities for repairing engines, aircraft parts, and so on. It also has sensitive facilities such as a petrol tank farm and a data centre that the airport’s operations and the safety of the flights using its runway are dependent upon.

Every day, thousands of workers would enter its fenced-up premises through several secure gates. They worked in the different industries and facilities upon which Seletar Airport is dependent. Major roads also allowed vehicles to enter through security checkpoints to enter the airport.

Various aviation training schools are also located there, including the Singapore Youth Flying Club. Every day, many students would come into the campus on the airport for pilot training, courses on aircraft engineering, and other aviation related courses.

The Security Director offered the students of this course to conduct a comprehensive security risk assessment to identify and address potential threats and vulnerabilities faced by Seletar Airport, not only to the many prominent clients that made use of its facilities, but also the valuable aircraft under its care, its facilities, and its systems.

Under the Background and Introduction section, conduct research on the civil aviation sector and examine four different aviation security threats facing the sector. Explain each security threat, the possible consequences and use relevant real case examples to support your claims.

Question 2

Demonstrate your understanding of security risk assessment and explain how you would define the project for Seletar Airport. In your description, illustrate and describe the steps and cite examples to support your points.

Question 3

Illustrate in detail the various methods you will use to gather data for security assessment at the private airport. How do these methods help you to examine the potential threats and determine the vulnerabilities facing an airport like Seletar Airport?

Question 4

Based on the security threats you have identified in Question 1, determine four vulnerabilities that could potentially expose the airport’s assets to these threats. Formulate ways where security controls can reduce each risk.

Question 5

As part of constructing a plan to help Seletar Airport mitigate the risks facing them, you have been asked to make an educational video to create awareness on the threats that you have identified and educating the staff on ways to mitigate it.

You may choose to make a standalone video or upload the video onto a TikTok or Youtube account. You will be graded based on the following criteria:

 Content of the video: The content in the video should be educational, providing clear information about the possible threats the airport staff may face, and actionable steps that they can take to minimise the risks. Appropriate terms and data are used.
Clarity: Clear and effective communication of the central key points.
Audio and visual clarity: the audio of the video should be clear and the visuals easy to view so that the audience can more easily understand and absorb the information
Language: Language should be clear, professional and easy to understand.
The video should be no longer than 10 minutes.
