U.S. sets manifest rule for private planes

Mon Nov 17, 2008 7:31pm EST

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Operators of international private-plane flights
to and from the United States will be required to electronically provide
full advance manifests of their passengers and crew an hour before
departure, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security said on Monday.

The rule is aimed at closing a security gap by making private aircraft
comply with similar notification rules required of commercial airlines,
Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff said in announcing the
rule.

"We're placing considerable emphasis on raising security in the general-
aviation sector," Chertoff said.

Also on Monday Chertoff signed an agreement with Ireland under which
commercial and private passenger flights to the United States from
Shannon and Dublin airports can receive full preclearance screening
before departure, streamlining passenger entry into the United States.

The department said airline passengers who have undergone the
preclearance screening can have their checked luggage automatically
transferred to domestic or international connecting flights.

Private aircraft flying through Ireland will be able to use the
preclearance procedures to any U.S. airport without having to stop at a
predesignated airport customs clearance.

The prescreening operations are expected to start at Shannon in 2009 and
Dublin in 2010, the department said.

I propose we do the same with Ryder and Haul trucks entering from Mexico.
