Wyvern welcomes IRM Aviation as a new Wingman operator

Indian Gulfstream operator IRM Aviation has secured its designation as a Wyvern Wingman operator following a successful audit conducted by Wyvern last month. 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.

“We, at IRM, are proud to have acquired the Wyvern Wingman standard as a measure and recognition of our efforts in establishing an effective safety management system. We are now motivated to endeavour in achieving higher standards,” says Alekh Jain, IRM's CEO and accountable manager.

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

“We are proud to announce that IRM Private Limited is a Wingman operator. Conforming to the Wyvern Wingman standard is a testament to IRM’s culture and commitment to safety,” says Andrew Day, Wyvern senior vice president, operations.
