Wing Aviation joins Air Charter Safety Foundation

The Air Charter Safety Foundation (ACSF) is pleased to announce that Wing Aviation, Houston, TX, is the newest charter operator to join the ACSF. Along with 155 other companies, Wing Aviation supports the ACSF's vision to promote and enable the highest levels of safety in personal and business aviation through the promotion and facilitation of risk management programs. 

“At Wing Aviation, safety is at the foundation of all of our services,” said Wing Aviation director of safety, Jonathan Howells. “Our steadfast dedication to passenger safety and security is supported by a comprehensive and ongoing program of internal review and third-party audits. Our membership heightens the validity of our commitment to safety, and we're very pleased to have the support of the ACSF.”

Wing Aviation has the shared attitude among their team members that safety above and beyond what is considered regulatory must be a core value for their company. 

“The entire company is built around a top-down culture of safety that expects and encourages clear, open dialogue, empowering every team member to be an active contributor to the welfare of their passengers. We are delighted that they will be participating in the ACSF-ASAP program as well, said ACSF president Bryan Burns.”

The ACSF has developed the industry audit standard, an all-inclusive audit tailored for Part 135 and 91K operators that acts as a detailed gap analysis of an operator's management practices. The audit program consists of a thorough review of an operator's processes, procedures and regulatory compliance and the operator's implementation of and adherence to a safety management system.
