During a specific bomb threat call, the search of an aircraft requires a coordinated effort involving multiple entities with specific expertise. Airlines security and engineers have detailed knowledge of the aircraft’s layout and potential hiding spots. A Bomb Detection and Disposal Squad (BDDS) has the expertise to identify, assess, and potentially render safe explosive devices. A Dog Squad trained in explosive detection is highly effective in locating concealed explosives. The ASG provides security and perimeter control but the detailed search is performed by those with specialized skills related to the aircraft and explosives. DGCA is the regulatory body and does not participate in operational searches. Option C provides the most relevant combination of operational entities for carrying out a detailed search under a bomb threat scenario.

A comprehensive search for an explosive device on an aircraft during a bomb threat involves entities with knowledge of the aircraft, explosive detection capabilities (dogs), and explosive disposal expertise (BDDS).

The specific protocol for an aircraft bomb threat search involves detailed checklists, systematic procedures, and coordination between the airline, airport operator, ASG, BDDS, and other relevant agencies like the fire service and medical teams. The process aims to be thorough while prioritizing the safety of all involved.
