Have you heard about auditing companies? Many aircraft charter companies explain that they are Wyvern and ARG/US approved. But, what does that really mean to the consumer and how are they different?
Both organizations offer air charter auditing services for corporate aviation. The auditing company verifies that the charter operators meet specific standards. However, both companies use different standards.
Wyvern Ltd. Standards require higher experience levels for the Captain and Co-Pilot. For these reasons, Exclusive Air has chosen to utilize only Wyvern Recommended Operators for their aircraft charter services.
The PASS™ (Pilot and Aircraft Safety Survey) certificate confirms that the aircraft, by tail number, and the flight crew meet The Wyvern Standard™. These certificates are issued for each flight and are specifically issued for your date of travel, itinerary, aircraft and crew.
Only a licensed Wyvern Exclusive Broker™, such as Exclusive Air can make the promise of booking you on a Wyvern compliant flight. Without a PASS report, you cannot be sure that your passengers are onboard a Wyvern Recommended flight.
