SC Aviation renews Wyvern Wingman certification

SC Aviation, a private jet operator headquartered in Janesville, Wisconsin, has once more secured its designation as a Wyvern Wingman certified operator following a successful audit conducted by Wyvern in October 2022. The Wyvern Wingman standard, the first air charter audit standard in the aviation industry, provides a safety benchmark that allows air charter customers to assess performance expectations against recognised industry best operating practices before purchasing air charter services.

“SC Aviation is proud to participate in the Wyvern Wingman audit. With every audit we come out of the activity with key takeaways in both process improvement and safety standards. One of the most critical actions an aviation organisation has is to maintain its safety culture. Preserving the Wyvern Wingman credential proves our commitment to this principle,” says Evan Redders, general manager of SC Aviation.

Wyvern Wingman operators are evaluated by the Wingman Standard criteria. The scope of the evaluation includes an assessment of operational activities, review on the company operational history and safety records, safety management system (SMS), internal evaluation programme, administrative compositions, technical documentation, pilot and aircraft records, training requirements and maintenance operations including technician training and experience.

“Wyvern is very happy to declare that SC Aviation is a Wingman operator. Adhering to the Wingman standard is evidence that the organisation has a culture of excellence that is far above its peers,” says Sonnie Bates, Wyvern CEO.
