ST. PAUL, Minneapolis (July 12, 2024) – Best Jets International has once again secured its WYVERN Wingman Certified Operator designation by maintaining Wingman status through the Flight Leader Program with quarterly coaching from WYVERN. 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.
“Safety is our top priority. Renewing the Wingman Certification is the result of our team’s dedication, excellence, and professionalism. Maintaining the Wingman Standard for the last 12 years demonstrates our unwavering commitment to the safety culture at Best Jets,” confirms Brandon Grell, Chief Inspector and Safety Manager at Best Jets International.
WYVERN Wingman Operators are evaluated by the Wingman Standard criteria. The scope of the evaluation includes an evaluation of operational activities, review on the company 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.
“We congratulate Best Jets International for renewing Wingman certification, which validates their effective safety management system and excellence in managing operations and aircraft maintenance. Wingman Operators in the WYVERN Flight Leader Program further demonstrate their steadfast commitment to making safety a core value, and Best Jets is the latest example of this commitment to excellence,” says Andrew Day, WYVERN’s Senior Vice President, Operations.
