Domodedovo International Airport upgrades its aviation security infrastructure.
Many experts believe that Domodedovo International Airport is the safest airport in our country. Expecting further growth of passenger volume and paying special attention to maintaining highest aviation security standards, EAST LINE Group has launched a comprehensive program to further improve and technically upgrade aviation security services at Domodedovo. To tackle these objectives, EAST LINE Group, which manages Domodedovo airport, has purchased, with an active support from federal authorities, significant amount of latest aviation security equipment.
For example, EAST LINE Group purchased seven modern Rapiscan 524 introscopes. The purchase of the same number of additional introscopes was financed from the federal budget. Installation of the equipment is underway.
Each new introscope is a complex modern technological equipment. Rapiscan 524 is the latest product in the line of the forth generation introscopes. This equipment performs a number of important functions, drastically improving the level of aviation security. In particular, forth generation introscopes provide an opportunity to determine content of baggage by its color during screening. As a result, it is possible to identify specific objects, be it metals or organic substances. Also, there are special built-in software programs to train aviation security personnel. These programs allow imitating attempts to carry prohibited items through the control desk.
According to Russian and foreign experts, this equipment can guarantee full security providing it is operated by highly qualified personnel.
In addition to new introscopes, latest Metor-200 metal detectors are being installed at Domodedovo. These metal detectors help precisely determine the location of metal items on the body of a passenger.
Efforts to technically upgrade aviation security services became another step by EAST LINE to implement a comprehensive aviation security program, which is based on a systemic approach to all aspects of maintaining aviation security at Domodedovo International Airport.
