Wyvern welcomes Voluxis as new Wingman operator

UK aircraft management and charter company Voluxis Limited has secured its designation as a Wyvern Wingman certified operator through the Flight Leader Program with quarterly coaching by Wyvern. The Wyvern Wingman standard, the first air charter audit standard in the aviation industry, provides the gold standard in safety that allows air charter customers to assess performance expectations against recognised industry best operating practices before purchasing air charter services.

“I am delighted that Voluxis has been awarded this much vaunted validation of our safety management system. There are only a handful of UK operators that have attained the Wyvern Wingman accreditation, and I am very proud of the entire Voluxis team for their dedication and hard work in maintaining our very highest safety standards,” says Andrew Boxer-Missen, Voluxis' director of flight operations.

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.

“Voluxis' certification as a Wyvern Wingman operator sets it apart from other operators in the air charter industry. This achievement validates its commitment to attaining and maintaining an enduring safety culture that elevates its performance above other operators that are just beginning to embrace the value of formal safety risk management,” says Andrew Day, Wyvern's senior vice president, operations.
