SafeTy ABOVE ALL
While there are many considerations that factor in when chartering an aircraft, SAFETY will always remain the top priority. And although each charter operator must comply with FAA rules and regulations, many aircraft operators go above and beyond to show their commitment to safety. This information is accessible to fliers via impartial third-party auditors.
Aviation Research Group (ARGUS), Wyvern Ltd. and IS-BAO are among the industry's most recognizable and reputable auditors. Each has a slightly different approach, however both measure and monitor the following areas of a charter operation:
Operator Safety Record & Certifications
Pilot Qualifications, Experience, & Training
Aircraft Maintenance & Age
Safety Management System & Practices
Insurance Coverage
