Safety
The part of the flight you never have to think about.
Three independent audit programs, our own Part 135 certificate, and crews carrying nearly double the hours the rule requires.

Who is in the seat
Our pilots carry nearly double the hours the rule requires.
The minimum is what the regulation will accept — not what we hire against. Every crew member flies recurrent training to Part 135 standards, tracked individually, and our own operational control center watches each leg from block out to block in.
Independently checked
Five marks, none self‑declared.
Auditors come to us. They open the manuals, pull the training records and inspect the aircraft — and then come back and do it again.
-
Audit — highest tier
ARGUS Platinum
The top rating ARGUS awards, covering safety management, pilot qualification and operational history. Platinum cannot be reached on paperwork alone — it requires an on‑site audit of how the operation actually runs.
-
International standard
IS‑BAO Stage 2
The International Standard for Business Aircraft Operations. Stage 1 asks whether a safety management system exists. Stage 2 asks whether it is working, and measures it.
-
Audit — quarterly
Wyvern Wingman Flight Leader
Recently upgraded from Wingman to the Flight Leader program, which moves us from an annual review to quarterly audits against Wyvern’s standard.
-
Certificate
FAA Part 135 air carrier
We hold our own certificate. When you fly with us you are flying with the operator, not a broker arranging someone else’s aircraft and someone else’s crew.

In practice
Six things running behind every leg.
- 01
Safety accountability
A named safety director who reports outside the chain that schedules the flights.
- 02
Operational control center
Our own OCC watching every leg, in contact with the crew from block out to block in.
- 03
Weather monitoring
Routes watched continuously and re‑planned early, while the options are still cheap.
- 04
Recurrent training
Certified training to Part 135 standards, tracked per crew member rather than per fleet.
- 05
Emergency response plan
A documented ERP with named roles and a rehearsed call tree — not an improvisation.
- 06
Privacy protected
Your manifest, your routing and your data stay inside the operation.
Reporting culture
The safest operators hear bad news early.
We take part in the ACSF Aviation Safety Action Program, which lets a crew member report a concern — or disclose their own mistake to the FAA — without it being held against them. It is the mechanism that catches a problem while it is still small, and it only works if nobody is punished for using it.
