registered Part 135 charter operators, only 60 meet the stringent standards required to achieve the Platinum rating. In addition, our company is both Wyvern and IS-BAO certified.
Executive Fliteways was awarded the Platinum rating after our first ARG/US audit in October, 2005. To maintain this rating we have had to consistently demonstrate compliance to “Industry Best Practices.” Additionally, a charter operator must have implemented a functional Safety Management System (SMS). In the near future, the FAA will require that all FAR Part 135 charter operators implement this type of system. Executive Fliteways has been far ahead of the curve with a functioning SMS in place since the fall of 2003.
Ken Gray, the Director of Operations, has been working closely with the National Air Transportation Association (NATA) to develop a comprehensive list of “Industry Best Practices” for all areas of flight and maintenance operations that will be made available to all NATA members.
Congratulations to the staff at Executive Fliteways for this award and their continued focus on safety. |
