The WYVERN Wingman Standard is a comprehensive audit that assesses an operator’s adherence to the most stringent safety practices. The scope of the evaluation includes an assessment of operational activities, a review of the company’s operational history and safety records, its Safety Management System (SMS), an internal evaluation program, administrative compositions, technical documentation, pilot and aircraft records, training requirements, and maintenance operations including technician training and experience. Successful completion of the audit underscores the carrier’s dedication to maintaining the highest levels of safety throughout its operations, from pilot training and aircraft maintenance to operational procedures and safety management systems.
“We congratulate these Vista America air carriers for renewing their Wingman certification, which validates their effective safety management system as well as their excellence in managing operations and aircraft maintenance. Wingman Operators stand out from their peers by allowing WYVERN to assess their conformity to best practices and continually monitor their information related to safety.”
