FDA 483 - Signature Flight Support - October 07, 2025

An FDA inspection of Signature Aviation, a Fixed Base Operator in Long Beach, CA, revealed significant insanitary conditions. Observations included a cracked plastic component above an ice making and holding machine, posing a risk to air conveyance passengers, and inadequate sanitary facilities for lavatory servicing, which could lead to the spread of communicable diseases. These issues indicate a failure to maintain the plant in repair and provide necessary sanitary controls.
