Jet Aviation Flight Services Renews Wyvern Wingman Certification

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 recognized industry best operating practices before purchasing air charter services. Jet Aviation Flight Services, an air charter service provider that recently renewed its Wingman Certification in November of 2022, utilizes its Wingman membership to align its practices with professional international industry standards. 

“We are proud to renew our WYVERN Wingman Certification,” states David Dalpiaz, VP Flight Services. “Safety is at the center of everything we do at Jet Aviation and our team operates at the highest industry standard. It’s imperative that we continue to go above and beyond to ensure that our customers are taken care of by a team that values safety above all.” 

WYVERN Wingman Operators are evaluated by the Wingman Standard criteria. The scope of the evaluation includes an assessment of operational activities, a review of the company's operational history and safety records, Safety Management System (SMS), internal evaluation program, administrative compositions, technical documentation, pilot and aircraft records, training requirements, and maintenance operations including technician training and experience. 

“Jet Aviation Flight Services certification as a WYVERN Wingman Operator sets them apart from other operators in the air charter industry. This achievement validates their commitment to attaining and maintaining an enduring safety culture that elevates their performance above other operators who are just beginning to embrace the value of formal safety risk management,” says Sonnie Bates, WYVERN CEO. 

“Staying up to date with the latest technology, training, and certifications, such as the WYVERN Wingman Standard, is key to mitigating risk and allows us to be a charter partner of choice,” says Leslie Cheshier, VP Owner and Charter Services. “We are passionate about the holistic customer journey—providing a seamless experience that entails world-class service, dedication to the details, and the highest standard of safety within the aviation industry.”
